How do the mid week numbers compare for Avengers and TDK? Surely Avengers is lower due to the kids still being in school?
People once again overestimate big Willy as MIB3 is crapping out this weekend. Another over-expensive behemoth no one wanted to see.
Paying out the wazoo for this flick was a huge mistake considering the second movie was already showing franchise fatigue and underperformed ten years ago.

MIB3 also sucked.They are but TA has such greater weekend numbers that it easily makes up for it and then some.
Yea the budget on this movie is ridiculous. But its opening is on par with predictions, also MIB2 underperformed cause it just sucked.
#Avengers #2 w/ solid $37M 3day wknd down only 34%. Smashed $500M SAT in record 23 days beating Avatar's 32.
Exhibitor Relations ‏@ERCboxoffice Marvel's mightiest swooped up $36.9M for the 3-Day & $47.1M for the extended holiday. Through Monday, THE AVENGERS will have amassed $523M.
Gitesh Pandya ‏@giteshpandya $26.3M intl wknd for #Avengers. Thru SUN, $781.6M intl & $1.295B ww. Close to passing Potter8 for #3 alltime global.
Down only 34% and crosses 500 mil this weekend? Even if TA comes in second it is still a great weekend for the movie. I think TA also grosses more in its 4th week than JC did in its first, right?
$600 million is happening everybody. Do you believe it now? KangConquers?

Awesome. Ever since Tuesday it's dailies have been performing around 12% better than my projections . Should overtake TDK as #3 on the all-time domestic list --and #1 domestic all-time highest grossing comicbook movie--on saturday at the latest, maybe even as early as thurs or friday. Should overtake Potter 8 as #3 worldwide around that time as well. Although it looks like Potter's #3 overseas gross ($947M) may be beyond reach . I wasn't sure it could cross $600M domestic but now it's looking like at the LATEST it could get there is exactly the day before TDKR debuts.
I'm not going to concede that possibility until TA opens in Japan.
I think this is exactly the type of film that Japan is into (like Spider-Man, except on steroids) so i'm hoping it does exceedingly well there. Avengers took a big hit this weekend overseas tho, but i am still crossing my fingers that it does beat HP's overseas gross. Heck i pegged TA to initially "only" make 750M and hoping it would beat TF3's 770M and its already done that and it's only its 5th weekend overseas. So i'm happy regardless.
