[Deuces.]

Not the merciless slaying.

[Aryl]

I did not expect The Avengers slayage like that

Especially with Spiderman missing from the cast.

[Doc]

It beat Deathly Hallows for that Top 3 spot?



Damn, I need to go watch this movie and see what's so great about it.

Universal's latest summer event pic Snow White and the Huntsman is overperforming in its domestic launch, grossing $20.3 million on Friday for a projected weekend opening north of $55 million. If Snow White starring Charlize Theron, Kristin Stewart and Liam Hemsworth stays on course, it will be the first of Hollywood's recent fairy tale re-tellings to work with moviegoers. The film also could mark a much-needed win for Universal after big-budget stumple Battleship and recent comedy miss The Five-Year Engagement.Box office observers will be watching carefully to see whether Snow White's B CinemaScore affects word of mouth over the weekend.Snow White wasn't a cheap proposition, costing at least $170 million to produce, excluding a six-figure marketing spend. It also will need to do good business overseas, where it is opening in 45 markets this weekend.Based on initial numbers, Universal is predicting a $39.3 million international opening for Snow White, higher than two other female-skewing properites, The Hunger Games ($38.7 million) and the first Twilight ($30 million). Snow White opened No. 1 in 30 of the markets, and is doing particularly well in Latin America and Asia, including placing No. 1 in Mexico with $1 million on Friday.

Well this one is absolutely killing the Julia Roberts one. That one made like $55 million total which is what SWATH is going to make in its opening weekend.

[Rock That Beat...]

The Avengers was nice but not THAT amazing. C'mon, Harry Potter and Batman both are much better movies than The Avengers. I hope Prometheus does good, I loved the movie.

It is really just the perfect commercial Comic Book movie. I can't be mad.

[ALA]

Lucky Titanic had the 3-D re-release, Avengers would've passed it domestically.

I'm always up for big box office #'s so I'm happy about it.

[Danny789]

I can't at my Joss having the #3 movie of all time

This. The Avengers was enjoyable, but Potter and Batman have it beat by lightyears.

It doesn't bother me a whole lot, though; better something enjoyable like The Avengers instead of something ******.

[BnPac]

Oh I am so happy for Whedon!! He made an amazing movie and deserves it all.

I saw Prometheus and it was just okay. The sequel will be like alien I think.

[JasperX]
