baumer Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 I think this situation mirrors 2010 in some ways. We had a stellar first quater, a huge hit in March, and then the box office kind of went downhill. Every major release in April so far underperformed.Could the Avengers suffer the same fate as Iron Man 2?Nope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accursed Arachnid!™ Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Poor Iron Man 2, only made 312 m Dom and 624 m WW.Whata box office disaster : 3rd dom and 7th ww in 2010.Most people were expecting(unrealistically) an increase like TDK had from BB. But BB way underperformed while IM1 way overperformed. IM1/ IM2 should have been compared to SM1/SM2, not BB/TDK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
