KManX89 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 (edited) Well, it did it, folks: Avengers: Infinity War officially crosses $2 billion, becoming only the fourth movie ever to reach that benchmark. Mark this one down in the history books. Good because it f'ing deserves it. Edited June 14, 2018 by KManX89 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seminoles1 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 (edited) Avengers: Endgame has already set the record for the largest worldwide opening weekend ever...through Friday. It has shattered every record and will set a new domestic opening record that won't be even remotely challenged for years. Peoplethought it might have a chance at $300 million coming into the weekend...it might end up hitting $350 million.

And again, it doesn't get the benefit of the holiday weekend bump that Ep7 got, either. IW got past the 2B mark...you have to wonder if 2.5 or 3 is in reach globally for Endgame.

Given how dense it is it has replay value for sure. Kids (13/17) and I will be going back next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seminoles1 Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 It broke every single record. Shattered most of them. Avatar is officially on watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically the Q comes down to this - will viewers go back a 2nd time beyond hardcore fans? If so, yeah it’s possible. The A+ Cinemascore is promising, forget the critics (who do by large love it).

I can’t think of the last movie I had time to go watch a 2nd time in theaters but I’ll for sure watch Endgame again in the next week 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to go again with my wife after i got back. I'd go back and watch Endgame again in theaters, but little kids make that difficult. I'm sure a lot of people will go back, and there are a ton of casual fans that will go in the coming weeks for the first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titansNvolsR#1 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 I'm sure it will do crazy amounts the next couple of weekends just because so many people wanted tickets and couldn't get them due it being sold out or fully reserved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seminoles1 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 I don't think this ends up passing Star Wars: The Force Awakens as the all-time domestic box office champ. Unsurprisingly, it hasn't held up during the weekdays compared to TFA and won't have as strong of legs post-2nd weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unsurprisingly, it hasn't held up during the weekdays compared to TFA and won't have as strong of legs post-2nd weekend. 2 things work against Engame vs. TFA: 1. TFA had 2 weeks of holidays where school was out. Endgame doesn't. The holiday effect is well known. 2. Endgame faces much stiffer competition for viewer $$ - Detective Pikachu (yes seriously, globally it's big), Godzila and John Wick 3 are going to offer some serious competition for viewer $ vs. deciding to rewatch (Aladdin honestly looks like trash, I'm discounting it in a big way). TFA faced a slate of movies that was entirely foregettable. The thing it has in its favor - the closing of the 22-movie arc, and the label that it's an "event" that should be witnessed in theatres. And given the density, it will tempt viewers to re-watch. Thats' really the only way you can think to top 2.8B. And the fact it didn't drop much from Wed to Thu shows it has legs. But it's a tall order. Now, if they're close, no doubt Disney and Marvel may in fact go on a limited nostalgia run this time next year... to get them over the top (much like how they strung out Black Panther to cross some key milestones). But given the 2nd/3rd weekend #'s TFA put up, it's a tall order. Still, it could be a lot closer than expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mox Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 What it does this weekend will tell if it can beat Avatar or not. If it has the 2nd biggest box office weekend ever (very possible) it'll do it. If it's below $600m it'll have a tough time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because they're only like $600M behind and hit the 2B mark about 30 days before avatar did. I think it'll beat it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
