if Captain Marvel goes for #2, has there ever been a franchise with #1 and #2 in weekly BO?

Excuse me, Sir, but I do believe that is an Exponential curve!

RT audience score back up to 93%

 

That Audience score system is worthless and RT knows it. Won't be shocked if its overhauled completely before the years up. Aud Reviews are also being added far slower than before. Looks like they're filtering bots/trash.

I think Endgame’s huge success will ensure the superhero genre will be strong for at least another decade. 

Has there ever been a time when superhero movies weren't big? Not all superheros are from comics.

World cup audience has always been inflated. Final was way higher but GOT isn't even as high as average world cup games.

Leaked security footage from Lucasfilm reacting to those numbers.

It'll certainly be interesting to see how it holds next weekend. One of the chief reasons why we're seeing such astronomical numbers is because everybody wanted to see it before spoilers became impossible to avoid. But also I imagine it's gonna get a lot of repeat viewings. It's gonna be the first movie I see in theaters more than once since Dunkirk.

The movies through TFA were matching the admissions of the previous record holder w/ inflation (and 3D w/ Potter) included.

 

This is the first one to CLEARLY crush the admissions record

The thing is Infinity War already had near-maximum reception from hardcore fans, so there wasn't much room for Endgame to increase, but while it was really well-liked by GA there was definitely a decent group of people that could be won over.

Agreed I think they did a great job. I'm surprised I don't share the opinion of a typical hardcore fan but I clearly don't. That's ok perhaps I'm more of a casual fan tied to the emotion of the characters than I thought. Doesn't make my feelings right or wrong. Marvel money wise made a good choice. Personally I lucked out as well.

I don't know why it's so low-resolution on the forum.

80m Sun would be a HUGE drop for a mega opener...and that still puts it over 350 million. So yeah, I'd say it's 100% locked.

Avengers fans brutally beat man outside cinema after he 'loudly revealed the ending to blockbuster Endgame movie'

Quote

A man has reportedly been beaten up outside a cinema after loudly revealing the plot of the new Avengers film to queuing fans who hadn't yet seen it. 

According to Taiwanese media, the man was left bloodied outside a cinema in Causeway Bay, Hong Kong, after watching Avengers: Endgame. 

A photo of the man has circulated online, according to AsiaOne, and shows him sitting down on a blood-spattered pavement. 

 

[IronJimbo]

Going to watch Endgame tonight.

Revenge of the Sith would have.  Remember it opened on a Thursday.  It probably had potential for $60+m on a true Friday, which would have lasted until TDK.
