Actually AOU did $718,865 on its 41st day compared to $826,311 for gotg2 on its 41st day. AOU was released a week earlier so it would be unfair to compare its 7th week gross to gotg2's 6th week gross.
That being said guardians has been holding better than AOU and thats a great achievement. 390m Dom is on the table and likely if it follows AOU from here on out. 400 would have happened had it not been for WW.
Indeed, I missed that. I thought they released on the same week-end.

Summer weekdays coming into effect.
At the same point in its run, Avengers: Age of Ultron was grossing $450k
It's not just summer weekdays. GOTG2 has terrific late legs.

In the 2000's
2005: Batman begin: 4.24
2004: Spider man 2: 4.23 (not a friday opening thought)
2006: Superman : 3.8
Like I said...
1 hour ago, Daxtreme said:(Friday and $40M+ openers only)
Can't compare Friday openers with non-Friday openers.
edit: All 3 movies you mentioned opened on a wednesday.
edit#2: Replying to @Cochofles
35 minutes ago, Cochofles said:I am confused by that link. Why are Wonder Woman, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and Power Rangers 1, 2, and 3 on that list?
Also, I have not read a single headline about WW possibly getting the best multiplier since Spidey's first film, but many headlines about the best second-weekend drop since SM1's second weekend, which is apparently true.
Well, the link is simply a list of superhero movies, which you can order by release date, dom total, OW, etc. (it's currently ordered by release date if you follow the link)
I based my calculations off that list.
As for headlines, they're not quite headlines per se, just posts I've seen with a lot of upvotes on community-based websites, even though they're not exact
When your post is being read by thousands of users however, it's not far from being an actual headline that people remember.

BTW, I've been seeing all these "Wonder Woman best drops since Spider-Man in 2002" posts all over the place (mostly reddit), or most notably, "WW might get best multi since Spider-Man in 2002"...
I'd just like to point out that Guardians of the Galaxy had a 3.53 multiplier, while Spider-Man had a 3.52 multiplier.
So if anything...
.
.

GOTG is the movie to beat purely in terms of legs
Wonder Woman having more than a 3.53 multiplier (GOTG) would make it the leggiest superhero movie since... Batman Returns in 1992 I guess? (Friday and $40M+ openers only) -- Depends on the OW threshold.
More than 3.56 would mean best legs since Tim Burton's Batman... and to beat Batman she would need a 6+ modifier, so that's where the fun stops.
Guardians of the Galaxy is the leggiest superhero movie since 1992, I don't know why everyone's going with Spider-Man. Of course one of the non-Friday openers could also be the big winner, but we can't compare them with Friday openers, for obvious reasons.
So yeah, I can understand why everyone's going for that headline, since, well "Heading for best multi since Guardians of the Galaxy in 2014" sounds much less awesome than 2002.
fun stuff: Replace $40M+ openers with only big openers ($70M+) and Wonder Woman would become the leggiest superhero movie of all-time with just a 3.54 multiplier.
Superhero movies are so front-loaded

I say the leggiest Superhero movie in recent years is The Force Awakens with 3.78

It was after Iron Man 2 where I heard a lot of mixed reactions on the MCU. Thor was lukewarm, Hulk was meh and Cap was mixed although a lot of folks have changed their opinions on that one over the years. That said, Avengers was still something that literally everyone wanted to see and was excited for. The mixed reception obviously didn't hurt Avengers at all.
Partly because it was the first movie to do it. The mixed reception to some of the earlier installments was easier to forget because of that. Curiosity factor played into it.
Fast-forward to now and franchise characters teaming up for the first time ain't nothing new, and certainly less impressive than it was, especially if their solo movies before that are turds.

Just realized this, Wonder Woman basically equaled the second weekend of the first Hunger Games movie. That was also a cultural phenomenon and opened to 55M more than WW and had great reviews, and was weekend heavy thanks to being in March. This second weekend hold is crazier the more you think about it.

Wonder Woman's 2ND WEEKEND is less than 7M behind initial tracking for OW...wow.

Everyone's praising Gal Gadot, Patty Jenkins, Chris Pine, and their own moms for Wonder Woman's success, both BO and critically...
And there I am, quietly clapping for the screenwriter, Allan Heinberg, who gets so little recognition when we all know that all good movies start with a good script
So, I'm taking this short moment to praise the screenwriter. Wonder Woman was his first feature film, and I'm intrigued to see what he does next, because he definitely has talent, as this BO run proves.
Of course he didn't write it alone, but as he's the only one with actual screenplay credit on this movie (not just story), technically he did the bulk of the work.
edit: He's actually got next to no followers on twitters, and his posts have like 20 likes

nowadays, people only flock into cinema for superhero and family friendly stuff
Well, with all the bleak news about terrorist attacks lately, and ongoing wars, and stupid political decisions being made in pretty much all developed countries...
It's no surprise that people flock to movies which make them feel good, forget.

Add "Emily Blunt in Edge of Tomorrow" and my like is yours!Indeed, there are quite a few examples. In recent movies, Emily Blunt in EoT, Rebecca Ferguson in Mission Impossible 5, Felicity Jones in Rogue One, Charlize Theron in Atomic Blonde (well, movie isn't out, but I'd be willing to bet she'll be kicking ass just from the trailers alone).
Also, Ripley in Aliens is a complete bad-ass after her more "unlikely/reluctant hero" part in Alien.
Speaking of unlikely female hero, which is from my post earlier, the category usually reserved for the horror genre these days (unfortunately), Hailee Steinfeld in True Grit makes for a formidable candidate, and a proof that neither age nor sex of a protagonist are limiting factors. So is Ivana Baquero in Pan's Labyrinth.
Sadly, there are still so few of them...

Indeed.
GOTG2 will come out of this week-end with $373-374M, add in summer weekdays and it can't really gross under $385M
