Another Guardians of the Box Office Update: The $300M Domestic March to #1 Movie of the Summer/Year
this is a launch aligned comparison, so that you can see how the movie is doing.
[Movie: Daily Sat/Sun - Domestic Gross / # of Days (Total Domestic / WW Gross)]
GotG: 7,510,000/$5,290,000 - $251,884,000 / 24 ($251,884,000 / $489,484,000) <wknd est>
Cap 2: $7,318,408/$4,485,096 - $225,059,241 / 24 ($259,746,958 / $714,063,958)
IM 1: $7,898,842/$7,111,285 - $252,614,669 / 24 ($318,412,101 / $585,174,222)
Guardians is now the #1 movie of the summer!!
It's also guaranteed to pass Cap 2: TWS in domestic gross. Hopefully it does the same in WW gross, but we won't know till it releases everywhere. Domestically is tracking pretty close to, but just behind, Iron Man 1 (China debut on October 10th I think, so we have a ways to go before we know where this settles.)
