America’s favorite superheroes continued to dominate the box office in historic fashion.
After shattering records with a $207 million opening, The Avengers earned $103 million in its second weekend, not only throttling the current box office competition, but also topping the previous Week 2 high marks of blockbusters Avatar and The Dark Knight.
Both of those movies took in $75 million in their second weekends — a figure The Avengers easily soared past.
The Avengers also glided past the $1 billion mark globally.
The week’s big new release, Johnny Depp and Tim Burton’s vampire collaboration Dark Shadows, came in a very distant second with $28.8 million.
Nabbing third even further down was Think Like A Man with just $6.5 million in ticket sales.
The Hunger Games and The Lucky One finished in fourth and fifth places with $4.4 million and $4.1 million, respectively.
Rounding out the Top 10 were The Five-Year Engagement ($3.2 million), Pirates! Band of Misfits ($3 million), The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel ($2.7 million), the Edgar Allan Poe thriller The Raven ($2.5 million), and Chimpanzee ($1.7) million.
