The King of Pop continues to draw a crowd

Sony Pictures announced today that Michael Jackson's This Is It has raked in more than $200 million across the globe. $61 million domestically, and $140 million worldwide.

While the concert flick didn't quite live up to the astronomical expectations it was saddled with, it still managed to claim the title of the most successful concert film of all time after just one weekend.

Sony understandably extended This Is It's planned two-week run until Thanksgiving.
