Ticket prices would be almost equal or a little higher I believe. Though with a minimum of $150m domestic and minimum $250m OS (Japan is still ahead) after this weekend I am sure it will pass $1.4b which would mean more tickets overall.

I expected $800m to $1B worldwide at best but it looks like $1.5B is a possibility!

Don't you mean $800m to $1B OS Gez?

I meant WW with $400m-500m or so from domestic and $400-500m OS.

Now it looks like $900m+ from overseas and $600m+ domestic??

Aah i see that is where I see it ending as well

28 mill Tuesday. It's now at 500 internationally and 744 WW!

Goddamn.

More like 24.3M.

Is this fastest to $750m WW?

Edit: No I guess that's still DH2 if you go by international release.

Yes, sorry...my bad.

lol I failed in predicting...

Was seeing like 14 million or so this whole week.


Should blast welll well past 600 million by the end of the weekend and 800 million is pretty much assured.

Should be at least 620 million after the weekend and a bit shy of a billion WW by Sunday..


With no real competition this month, TA is heading for a gigantic overseas haul...

So even $1.7B is in play!! Awesome!

woh chill

I am looking at 1.4 billion now...

It is already at $500m with Wednesday and Thursday ahead contributing a minimum of $20m each plus add a minimum of $95m weekend and you get $135m for $635m OS total by Sunday.

Domestically from $244m add $26m from weekdays and a minimum of $95m domestic, you get $121m for $365m domestic total by Sunday.

WW total 635 + 365 = $1B WW Disney will do ANYTHING in their hands to get that extra publicity and record of 17 days.

With higher predictions this will do
OS $44m weekdays + $100m weekend = $144m or $644m
Domestic $26m + $111m weekend (BO is predicting that high) = $137m or $381m
Worldwide : $644m + $381m = $1.025B

It is making $1B by Sunday for sure. The domestic weekend will surely be big enough to reach it past $1b mark

775 million we and 518 million overseas....

Mark did it get around 100 million overseas this weekend in its 3rd weekend???


lol

$95.4m...

Woh around 40% drop overseas...

Insane should get another solid drop next weekend as well I believe?

Its now locked to beat DH2.

SI:

The performance-to-date in key territories puts The Avengers at $65.7m in the UK, $52.3m in China, $49.6m in Mexico, $44.6m in Brazil, $41.3m in South Korea, $40.5m in Australia and $36m in Russia.

It has amassed $33.4m in France, $24.1m in Germany, $21.9m in Italy, $17.4m in Taiwan, $17.2m in Spain, $13.4m in the Philippines, $11.6m in Hong Kong and the same amount in Argentina, $10.4m in India and $137.9m in remaining territories.

well hardly a surprise. The amazing thing about this is the non domestic release dates. had it released together in states it would have crossed the mark in about 15 days itself.

Amazing what Latin America and Asia can do on their own. The numbers in Europe are pretty paltry, except the UK.

The avengers is now the second highest grossing movie of all time in Mexico passing Avatar. About 9 million more and it will pass Toy Story 3 for the top spot

Paltry compared to the rest, yes, but I mean in Germany The Avengers has already passed all Avenger-related flms to date after less than 14 days and should be the first comic book adaptation to pass 2 million admissions since The Dark Knight.
