X-Men: Days Of Future Past has trounced Godzilla in the battle of the gargantuan movies today.

The latest X-Men flick was on track to sell $111 million in tickets in North America over the four-day weekend that includes Memorial Day in the U.S., according to industry figures gathered by Rentrak.

Godzilla was estimated to sell $39.4 million in tickets this weekend, but no tears should be shed for the big scaly beast from Japan. It has racked up a gargantuan $156.8 million in domestic sales in 11 days, and has stomped past the $300 million mark worldwide.

Blended debuted with $19.1 million in estimated sales in the U.S. and Canada.

Rounding out the 10 most-popular films in the U.S. and Canada, as estimated by the studios and collated by Rentrak, were Neighbors ($17.2 million), The Amazing Spider-Man 2 ($10 million), Million Dollar Arm ($8.7 million), The Other Woman ($4.5 million), Rio 2 ($3.3 million), Chef ($2.9 million), and Heaven Is For Real ($2.8 million).

X-Men: Days of Future Past is the seventh film in the X-Men franchise, which started in 2000.

The original trilogy was followed by X-Men Origins: Wolverine in 2009, X-Men: First Class in 2011, and The Wolverine in 2013.

Four more films are planned for the franchise, including X-Men: Apocalypse (2016), Wolverine 3 (2017), X-Force, and Deadpool.

Last week’s release of Godzilla is a reboot of an American version of the film franchise released in 1996.

Blended marks the third time Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore are working together on-screen. The duo debuted together in the 1998 flick The Wedding Singer and joinced forces again in 2004 with 50 First Dates.
