Scarlett getting her promo on the homepage of Variety this morning

My friend in New Zealand whose opinion I tend to agree with said he'd only give Avengers a B. He didn't think it was as good as the 1st Iron Man or X Men First Class and that it was a bit long and dragged in the middle. By this time next week, Avengers should be above $500M WW

I'm really impressed by Think Like a Man's 2nd weekend #s. Less than 50% drop, still pulling in 9K/screen, over $60M gross: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/weekend/chart/

Who in the world is seeing Think Like a Man?

And I wasn't really too fond of X-Men: First Class, it was basically a cliched super hero movie with questionable acting. I liked the first Iron Man, though. I have high hopes thanks to Joss Whedon's involvement. I hope the fact that I haven't seen Captain America, Thor, or Iron Man II won't make me miss too much of what's going on in the film.

I watched 'The Avengers' yesterday. Epic in every way possible.

[chris1991]

Amazing, never expected this to do so well. I expected it to do mediocre compares with other superhero movie.

[Robert]

It's a great film

I've been told I need to watch Thor before watching Avengers... Is it true?

The movies that lead up to The Avengers go like this: ‘Captain America: The First Avenger,’ ‘Iron Man,’ ‘The Incredible Hulk,’ ‘Iron Man 2,’ and ‘Thor.’ The last three all overlap, so they’re interchangeable. In my opinion, only 'Iron Man' is worth watching.

You don’t necessarily need to see any of them to understand ‘The Avengers’ though. You would just know a bit more about the characters in the movie.

I think it's coming for Harry Potter's wig, i'm serious.

I Loved it, Scarlet is a goddess. I watched it on friday and today again, LOL. It's so epic, I can't. I Just can't wait to see the USA numbers + they officialy announce the Black Widow movie starring the queen. (I think it's coming on 2014 along with Captain America 2)

If you want to have a great experience, you have to watch Captain America, Thor and Iron Man 2.

Chris Evans only made 300,000$ for Captain America?

$369 million isn't bad, even though the movie did cost $140 million to make and an additional $60 million to market ($200 million overall.)

[BlueJeans]

Damn.

I'm half black, though.

I'm excited to see it next weekend.

Based off this opening, The Avengers could reasonably finish with nearly $600 million overseas, and it could even wind up higher than that.

Thanks to The Avengers debut, Battleship plummeted 63 percent to an estimated $22.5 million this weekend. It added $8 million in China and held first place in Russia with $3.2 million (as previously noted, both of these markets didn't have The Avengers). The movie has now made $170 million overseas, and should be able to push past the $200 million mark with this batch of territories. The board game adaptation opens in Latin America on May 10, and in the U.S. on May 18.

Titanic 3D continued its remarkable run in China by adding an estimated $12.5 million this weekend. That brings its total there to $126.1 million, which is a little less than half of its $260.6 million overseas total. Thanks to the re-release, Titanic's overall foreign gross has now passed $1.5 billion.

American Reunion added an estimated $14.5 million from 41 markets this weekend. In Germany, the movie opened to an outstanding $6.6 million, which ranks second right behind The Avengers. The comedy sequel has so far earned $75.2 million overseas.

In its sixth weekend in release, The Hunger Games earned an estimated $7.4 million overseas. That brings its foreign total to $228.5 million, and its worldwide (domestic plus foreign) total past the $600 million mark
