"Avengers: Endgame" has made an estimated $644 million at the worldwide box office. That makes it the biggest global opening in film history.
And the weekend isn't even close to being over yet.
The Disney (DIS) and Marvel film surpassed the record held by "Avengers: Infinity War," which made $641 million for its opening around the world last April.
"Endgame," which has the Avengers return to take on the evil Thanos, has grossed an estimated $487 million overseas, according to the studio. That breaks the record for the biggest opening weekend internationally, which was held by 2017's "The Fate of the Furious."
"Endgame" also already has the highest-grossing three day start ever in China. The film has so far made $217 million there.

Re: Avengers: Endgame
Also, there seems to have been a rumour that there’s no coda at the end of this film. There is, but you have to stay to the very end and pay attention, because it’s

Re: Avengers: Endgame
Yes, very good. I still probably prefer the individual stories such as Spiderman: Homecoming and Black Panther but is my favourite of the Avenger films by far.

Re: Avengers: Endgame
I believe General Maximus is correct with his end credits explanation

’Avengers: Endgame’ Breaks All Box Office Records With $1.2 Billion Opening
As expected, Avengers: Endgame shattered every opening week record in box office history as the Marvel epic opened with $1.2 billion worldwide and $350 million domestic, both new records.
Endgame crushed the record established one year earlier by its predecessor Avengers: Infinity War, which opened with $250 million domestically – surpassing Star Wars: The Force Awakens‘ record of $248 million set in December 2015 – and $630 million worldwide, Variety reports.
Even after Infinity War‘s release, The Fate of the Furious, somehow, held onto its box office record for foreign opening weekend with $443 million; Endgame also demolished that record, bringing in $859 million overseas, including a mammoth $330 million opening weekend in China.

And deservedly so...

Re: Avengers: Endgame
It's already the biggest film of the year. Apparently Captain Marvel is still 2nd in the domestic box office this week too! That boycott went well.
Will it become the most successful film of all time?

yeah, it is hard to explain why in words but it is the strong, sincere, genuine and believable emotional moments like that that do it for me and why I love Marvel films. You can have fun and OTT action films like Aquaman (not picking on it specifically) where you make the character out to be a certain type of person but despite how dyer the situation you know they are never really going to be in any peril. Same with Superman as well.
The thing which I love about the Marvel films is that you have a genuine connection with the characters, feel their pain as they go through traumatic events and know it means something. I nearly cried when Gamora died in Infinity War.

Re: Avengers: Endgame
It may not be THE best movie ever made but its my favourite movie of all time I reckon. At the very least though it's up there as one of, if not the best cinematic spectacle ever seen.

Re: Avengers: Endgame
I thought the CGI was weird at times making the characters look deformed and miniaturized. Kind of spoilt it a bit for me.

Re: Avengers: Endgame
Nah in the big battle sequence there was something up with the perspective and the way the characters were fitting into the background, it looked liked it was all on green screen although it wasn't.
