RAMROD 96,462 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Disney and Marvel Studios' Avengers: Endgame has passed up James Cameron's 2009 behemoth Avatar to become the top grossing film of all time at the worldwide box office, not adjusted for inflation. Marvel boss Kevin Feige made it official Saturday at the studio’s Comic-Con panel, announcing Avengers: Endgame is clicking past Avatar‘s $2.7897 billion global box office this weekend to become the biggest film of all time. It took nine years for the record to fall, but it finally happened. There is currently a gap of $500K in global ticket sales between Avatar and Endgame, and the latter will click past that tomorrow. “Thanks to you, Avengers: Endgame is the biggest film of all-time,” Feige told Hall H at the top of the Marvel panel. As of this minute, the global B.O. for Endgame through yesterday stands at $2,789.2 billion. Why are Avatar‘s grosses higher than what’s on Box Office Mojo? Because its global B.O. was updated by Disney/Fox to reflect a small amount of reissue grosses in various territories over the years. This weekend, Endgame in its 13th weekend, is expected to make an estimated $1.28M from 985 theaters at the domestic box office, putting its running tally at $854.2M. It only took Endgame 10 days to defeat Titanic‘s lifetime global record. At the domestic box office, Endgame has settled in the No. 2 spot on the all-time list, $82.5M behind Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ $936.6M.

Biagio2103 4,858 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Well, not surprising considering they did everything they could in order to take over the record. Not deserved though, Endgame isn't even the best film in the whole MCU and was filled with fan service. I'm only good at being bad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatar did have a re-release, but didn't need it unlike Endgame to become the highest-grossing film. Besides, Avatar was, at least, an achievement in terms of movie making, Endgame follows the same formula as Infinity War just with a different finale.

iCpro 14,846 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Talent lost Regardless, what Avatar accomplished was far more impressive than Endgame, which needed 22 movies to propel it to the top, Avatar did it entirely on its own. Furthermore, when all’s said and done Endgame will probably beat the record by no more than $10m, whereas back in 2009 Avatar broke the record by more than $600m. 08, 09, 11, 13, 16, 20 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody wants that anymore. But Disney will make it work. They are too big to fail now.

The fact that the MCU has lasted this long is a testament of its own merit. No other studio/franchise has been able to do that. 🃏🖤👹 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
