Well, this film is making a killing here in the Philippines. Highest opening day ever surpassing Avengers and Spider-Man 3.
t:Analysts are predicting the film to make $110m overseas by Sunday. I know that's good, but I don't know if it's, you know, REALLY good to the point where it could make, say, $600m overseas. Anyone have any insight?
The Avengers said:Apr. 27–29 1 $185,100,000 - 39 - $4,746,154 $185,100,000 1

Oh wait nevermind:
$110m is very low in comparison statistically. How many markets is it opening in?
Its all about the market share. Its what makes tracking international very difficult sometimes.
Avengers did roughly $150 M in the markets IM3 is opening in. If IM3 holds that ratio, it'll do more than $600 M foreign.
Bingo.
I was reading that IM3 was tracking for $110 million internationally by this Sunday with still more markets to open (China being the notable later one.)Avengers did roughly $150 M in the markets IM3 is opening in. If IM3 holds that ratio, it'll do more than $600 M foreign.

Ok. I wasn't sure what numbers or figures you were using for that $600 M total.Yup....$110 M is about 70% of Avengers $150 M in those same markets. When I said $600 M, I was talking about a possible finish.
You're only counting the markets IM3 is opening in and leaving out the others that resulted in the other $35m for Avengers' opening right?Yup....$110 M is about 70% of Avengers $150 M in those same markets. When I said $600 M, I was talking about a possible finish.

So how many markets total is it opening in? I don't know where to find the release schedule at to add it up myself. Avengers opened in 39 markets OW.
Well since the AMC dispute is over I can see the 160-170 million OW numbers happening

The big question is will the movie have as long of legs as TA did? TA seemed to have a lot of repeat viewers as well as brand new ones to the MCU. There were things for every person of any age. I'm not sure IM3 will have that same longevity and also that many repeat viewers.Disney settled with AMC Theaters, leaving only the deal with Regal up in the air. Once that deal gets done, IM3's US path is clear.
The OS numbers are simply astonishing. IM3 set opening day records in a number of territories, including the Philippines and Taiwan. Its opening day admissions in France beat those of The Avengers (322,000 ticket for IM3 vs. 312,000 for TA). The film looks to be on its way to $110 million OW/$600 million total OS. Iron Man 3 is the monster a few of us thought it would be.
