The Avengers Assemble film, which was called Marvel 'Avengers Assemble' for its UK release has beaten the last largest taking opening weekend which was 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2', which opened in July 2011 and took $169 million.
Other earlier huge hitters include 'The Dark Knight', which took $158 million in 2008 and 'Spider-Man 3' that took $151 million.
With a film as huge and anticipated as The Avengers Assemble, it is hard to imagine it being anything other than a disappointment. After all, the hype has been building since the Iron Man and The Brilliant Hulk movies in 2008 and has grown even louder and more frenzied with Iron Man two and the success of the Thorn Captain the United States movies in 2011.
But The Avengers Assemble and its gifted writer/director Joss Weldon didn't do that. As a result, The Avengers Assemble is so nice, clever, comic, and satisfying that it not only surpassed all my expectations, but it left me with a deep, unexpected feeling of pride.
Artists take a whack at Iron Man, Hulk, Black Widow and the remainder of the Avengers team with paintings, posters and limited-edition prints being shown this weekend in Los Angeles.
A row about the merits of the blockbuster superhero film The Avengers Assemble has broken out on Twitter after Samuel L Jackson voiced his disappointment at a film review.
Combining the feature attractions of separate blockbusters, "The Avengers Assemble" was looking to at least surpass the first weekend gross of "Iron Man two," which pulled in a non-3D three-day total of $128 million in the work of this weekend years ago.
The victory was in that huge opening weekend. Also bleeding out was Lions gate’s "The Hunger Games," which crossed $380 million and could possibly surpass $400 thinking about it is still in the top after six weeks in theaters.
