So we have a "new" All-Time No. 1 champ!
AVENGERS: ENDGAME beat AVATAR by $8m in worldwide box office.
The surprise re-release of AVATAR in China made $3.5m on Friday (No. 1 on Friday!), so sometime on Saturday James Cameron will be king of the world again...

Oh cool. I didn't knew they re-released Avatar in China. Avatar 2 is going to do $1b in China alone

Does Kevin Feige draw a picture or just rerelease Endgame?

Good. It's a more deserving leader given its overall performance 10 years prior to Avengers.

I feel like it'll get re-released right before the 2nd one so it'll likely cement it's place.

Well it needed multiple releases to do it so it doesn’t count ;p

Adjusting for inflation Avatar remained #1 anyway (or #2 to Titanic)

Re: So tomorrow we will have a "new" All-Time No. 1 champ
lol the way Avatar is so forgotten and irrelevant these days
Those sequels are a big liability at this point, it's been 12 years and they're still nowhere in sight

Re: So tomorrow we will have a "new" All-Time No. 1 champ
^ Ugh not this again..... If the first is still making good money after 12 years in re-release then the sequels will surely have some appeal. At the very least in OS markets.

MadGez wrote: Well it needed multiple releases to do it so it doesn’t count ;p The first re-release for Avatar happened while it was still running in theaters whereas Endgame ended its theatrical run before reprints to barely get the mark. So technically this is the first re-release for Avatar and only in China btw and not all countries. Also I really do not think Endgame's re-release now will make much even in China.

Re: So we have a "new" All-Time No. 1 champ!
Zoe Saldana has been apart of the #1 movie on three different occasions now. Doubt that record ever gets broken (unless by herself, of course).

Full week in China is $29.93m or 5.45m admissions - lifting AVATAR's total to 33.1m admissions.

Re: So we have a "new" All-Time No. 1 champ!
Wonderful. I do not think a re-release of Endgame will make this much. Both movies are available on D+ which I assume is not yet released in China.

Re: So we have a "new" All-Time No. 1 champ!
Back to its rightful place. Even if I'm not that much of a fan, Endgame crawling past this with the re-expansion to claim the title never felt right.
