Studio estimates for SHREK 2 have pegged the green sequel with netting nearly $50 million dollars in ticket sales in just three days. Estimated grosses for the picture now total $49,445,000 -- a phenomenal achievement for any film during a non-holiday period and especially for one that opened in the middle of the work week. Tallies indicate that SHREK 2 took in $11.8 M on Wednesday, $9.1 M on Thursday and $28.5 M yesterday. If the film continues to perform at this pace SHREK 2 is looking at a $70-80 million dollar weekend.
