"Breaking Dawn" breaks weekend box-office records. Analysts tell that "Twilight's" latest film could surpass records and may earn $150 million on the opening weekend.

The film giant behind "Breaking Dawn" Summit Entertainment expects a domestic opening weekend gross of $110 million to $125 million. If this is achieved, the film will join the ranks of films with the strongest opening.

The latest figures showed that "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1" made a whopping $138 million around the world on its opening day. The film premiered in 54 countries, with midnight screenings that helped boost "Twilight's" cinematic performance.

"Breaking Dawn - Part 1" enjoyed the third-highest opening day ever with a projected $72 million in domestic receipts, according to studio estimates. It seems that a lot of people were curious with the intense sex and birth scenes in the film.

The first part of Edward, Bella and Jacob's final chapter together didn't manage to beat the opening day of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2" or 2009's "New Moon," but it was a close race between the "Twilight" films. "New Moon" opened with $72.7 million, and final calculations could change the outcome between the two.

Walking down memory lane, The Twilight Saga's second film "New Moon" earned a whopping $142 million on its first three days. However, box-office analyst Jeff Bock thinks that the first part of "Breaking Dawn" will exceed Summit Entertainment's expectations speculating that the latest "Twilight" film will score a $150 million in its first three days of showing.

Last weekend's #1 movie, "Immortals," was down 74 percent with $3.82 million. That decline is much worse than comparable swords-and-sandals action pictures like "300" and "Clash of the Titans." The horribly reviewed Adam Sandler vehicle "Jack and Jill" made $3.5 million in its second Friday in theaters. "Puss in Boots" dropped steeply but has earned well over $100 million in the last few weeks.
