As it relates to Japan courtesy of google, some numbers: Spider-Man made $56.2M, adjusted for japanese ticket price inflation (2002, $14; 2012, $24) amounts to 96.3M before 3D surcharge is accounted for. So if Avengers is as well-attended as SM1 back in 2002 (not hard since SM was #5 in Japan's 2002 grossers according to BOM) then $100M could be the floor for the Japanese market. Potter's #3 overseas ranking isn't looking as out of reach as it initially seemed. All this time i thought Nippon would account for around $50M or so.
Edit: the trick is going to be, how much is the late release going to affect it's bottom line? SM1 was released a week late in japan, TA 3 months.
