The movie is definitely a Cap sequel but they marketed this as an Avengers movie.

So Mr. Pool could be the biggest CBM of the year?  Lol awesome.

But this isn't really a sequel to just WS...as many of us have stated already, it's really Avengers 2.5 or 3.  But it's a massive OW and only seems less such because many got nuts with their $200m+ predictions, etc.

 

But it really doesn't matter what "many of you have stated".  It's a Captain America movie.

I think it worked both as a sequel to TWS and AOU.

@Baumer, forget Captain America, tomorrow you should go to the ballpark to see Clayton Kershaw face off against your boys. 

 

Nope.  I'm boycotting the Jays this year.  Fuck them and their cheap ass, cocky, asshole new regime.  They all came from Cleveland and are treating Toronto like we are Cleveland.  Plus Rogers Communication didn't spend any money in the off season.  When they were going to sign Price, I was on a list to get season tickets this year.  Then they didn't so I cancelled.  So fuck them.

I liked the movie even better a second time, and my audience was extremely enthusiastic for both last night and tonight. Compared to the opening night showing of AoU last year which had very little enthusiasm that waned down to none as it went on, and no applause at the end. Just a little anecdotal WOM comparison from the theaters around here.

If they have a plan for a real end to this cinematic universe then the last one might get close to or surpass first avengers OW numbers. Otherwise i agree. 

 

I was at $185m OW until all the insane hype. and near universal acclaim it was receiving. should have stuck with my gut feeling after the first trailer that it was a smaller scale more personal Captain America film and would perform as such.. I still think it will hit $180m ow and well over $400m when all is said and done though.

Nearly 2,000 reviews have been added on Flixster since this afternoon. It has not budged from 91% 4.4/5.

It only dropped to 8.5 on metacritic. Think it was an 8.6 earlier.

That means it should hold strong over the weekend unlike another film.

It dropped to 8.4 and rise again to 8.5

Was RDJ paid like it was a CA movie? It's silly to think this is really just a second CA sequel sorry.

[baumer]

So you guys think this will finish with less than 400 now?

 

How?

Come on now...that's like saying Creed isn't a Rocky movie, it's a Creed movie.  It has Captain America in the title but there's 10+ Avengers in the movie, etc, etc.

I saw that. It was 8.4 the first time I looked and then 8.5, the second. But it was 8.6 earlier.
 

So WOM is good everywhere.

[Kalo]

I honestly don't care if it makes trillions of dollars, it's going to be a huge financial success for the studio and it's the best superhero film ever made, if American audiences are too stupid to see that for themselves, then it's their loss.

Yes, hope Sat will do better when WOM really kick in. Friday number is quite disappointing.

No way this is a better SH film than TDK, I bet it's not even close.
