"The Amazing Spider Man 2", which was released in China on May 4th, has broken the record for screenings of an overseas film.
On Sunday, 40 percent of all cinema screens across the mainland were showing the red and blue aghaty teenage arachnid.
The Marvel movie also put in a solid performance in North America taking 92 million dollars over the weekend to place it firmly in the number one spot.
It's the second highest opening weekend for a film this year behind another Marvel offering "Captain America: The Winter Soldier." which made 95 million.
The film is the sequel to the 2012 blockbuster, "The Amazing Spider-Man", and runs hot on the heels of the previous trilogy which ended in 2007.
In the previous trilogy "Spider-Man 3" opened to 151 million dollars in 2007, "Spider-Man 2" grossed 116 million dollars over the four-day July Fourth weekend in 2004, and the original "Spider-Man" opened to 115 million dollars in 2002.
