Summer 2011 box office predictions - Part 2

[Electrix]

CA was always going to out-gross X-Men in the US. It's 3D for one, and he's Captain America.

International numbers stand at $103 million. It's unlikely to make more than First Class ($205m).

X-Men are a bigger name than Captain America since at least the '90s (probably since the '60s though, really). It's just this was the fifth X-film after two mediocre entries. Compare Cap's numbers to the inflation-adjusted non-3D numbers of the first two X-Men movies.

I'm kind of surprised Cap isn't going to surpass Thor though. Thor's going to win the race with....with literally just barely $180 million domestic. Not the best sign for the genre.
