Noctis Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 (edited) FRIDAY 8 AM: Rival studios tell me that Marvel’s The Avengers from Disney did not set a record for midnight showings — and made $20 million from about 2,500 North American theaters. The midnight record is still Warner Bros’ Harrry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Paart 2 with $43.5M. Disney has not released an official number yet. Huge.

redfirebird2008 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I'm not an expert on all this midnight business. How good is this for TA?That is a great number for a movie with primarily walk-up business. Probably will make $60m or so for the rest of the day.

Magic Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 That's a good number. I'm very happy with it.5M more than I was expecting a few days ago. That's an excellent number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Ok...nothing spectacular. Right above TDK and THG. Still don't think it will break the OW recordIM2 made $7.5m, so this is definitely a huge number by Marvel standards. I'd be very surprised if it doesn't break the weekend record at this point.
