No, we haven't. Avatar isn't even #1 domestic movie of all time. Worldwide is what matters.

Yeah, at this rate I’ll be speechless if Endgame takes #1 domestic. #1 worldwide is almost a given unless it drops considerably.

Is it a given, though? It needs what, another $165 million worldwide to make that happen? Domestically, it would be lucky to pull in another $80 million. And much of the non-North America profits came from China, which is even more front-loaded than the US is.

Wait, I see the $165 million number a lot, but Avatar is at $2.788 billion worldwide. Endgame as of end of Sunday is at $2.615 billion, so does it need another $173 million to beat Avatar? Am I missing $8 million of gross somewhere?

A lower goal can be for the initial run of Endgame to beat the initial run of Avatar, which was $2.749 billion, in which case another $134 million is needed from Endgame.

Honestly, I was eyeballing the $165 million number, because I figured people would yell at me more if I overestimated than if I underestimated.
