I'll take it.

Woo! Good way to start the games off.

If TA hits 200M, do y'all realize how unprecedented that would be?? I remember years of threads started by people asking if they would ever see the magical "200M OW" Most said not for another few years or even if current theaters could hold the capacity of that many people in 3 days. I know 3D is boosting these numbers, but still. My jaw will drop if I wake up in the morning and see that kind of a number.

My 500 seat theater was sold out at 330. It was ridiculous. Saturday is gonna be huge.

The Avengers (2D) 5/5/12 3:30 showing 475 seats--SOLD OUT (which for a 500 seat theater was insane) Trailers: The Dictator--laughs throughout Battleship--no reaction Prometheus--silence and some freaked out faces at the end The Dark Knight Rises--complete silence, it was an awesome feeling Brave--some laughs Frankenweenie--no reaction Movie: This was awesome. Well worth the wait as the film pays off in full. There was just something about seeing Iron Man, Thor, Capt America, and the Hulk all on screen at once. The one-liners hit and the action was awesome. Clearly my quick review won't matter much since millions of people will or already have seen this. Still for fans and non-fans alike it's worth checking out. If The Avengers is any indication, we are in for a hell of a summer. A

Every show in my area is sold out for the night. Haven't seen this kind of business on a friday since HP7 Part 2 and TDK. 70M OD won't surprise me.

Well since this number means nothing less than 160M OW, I would consider it very impressive.

Amazing number. Avengers was never going to pull a huge midnight number due to its release date and its target demo skews older than HP/Twilight. Haha it's funny some are saying a "20 million" midnight is disappointing. Before the time of book franchises, aka 4 years ago, TDK held the midnight record with a fantastic 18 million. And that was in the middle of summer. 4 years later...20 million is damn damn impressive.Not to mention fri/sat business is going to be ridiculous.

Looking forward to the crowd reports tonight, specifically trailer reactions from TDKR and Prometheus

I was surprised to see so many people with Snow White being a high grosser. Some people even had it top 5. I just don't see the appeal that screams "200M+ movie"
