It isn't doing big numbers in North America anymore. It is going to fall to 5th this upcoming weekend. It's a slow crawl at this point.

Avengers: Endgame will not outgross Avatar worldwide. Who will make an avatar bet about that?

While it was falling faster than IW in dailies for about a week there, it has stabilized and hovering near the same numbers. That means after this weekend is over, it has roughly $55m left in the tank. It could still be up or down from that, but doesn't look like it will be wildly so if this week is any indication.
So yeah, slow crawl.
it'll be on the fringes , secret life of pets , and dark phoenix will deffs be issues
it's gonna be losing screens
Japan's bigger theaters (especially in Tokyo) are down to a handful of screenings per day (3-5). Looks like Japan's contribution (which is relatively small to begin with but it's a leggy market and the third largest worldwide) is coming to a close.
It's funny; if Japan were into MCU like they are with Star Wars or other Disney films, then it would probably be enough to overtake Avatar in the long run.

Imagine if someone was willing to put 15 hours into the same 3 hours of a video game over a few weeks.

Needs exactly 100M more. I still think it gets there, because it would be too absurd not to.

Hard to say. If it keeps on following IW's drops it'll probably get an additional 50~55M more domestically. Can it get 50M more internationally? Not sure about that one. Really gonna be absurdly close, to the point where any random re-release in the future could probably put it past Avatar if it doesn't make it now.
It's what, $35m worldwide this weekend? Even without the heavy hitters coming over the next few weeks, it'll be a bit of a tail to make it happen.
What I wonder is if Far From Home gives it any kind of a bump. Probably not a major one at this point.
Why would it give it a bump? If anything it would take interest (and screens) away from it.
With how many people have already watched this thing I really doubt that's going to be a factor.
As someone who was originally hoping for 3 bil after that awesome opening weekend I'm now hoping that it fails to pass Avatar just for all the salt.
Endgame gave Captain Marvel a bump. I can understand the logic.
Didn't Captain Marvel get some new interest shortly before Endgame?
Yeah, without China and Japan this gets a lot harder. It's still going to be close either way but now I think Avatar keeps the throne unless this gets rereleased before or sticks around until Spider-Man. fml
Hell yeah. I hope it does not catch up.
James Cameron is such a better box-office final boss than Feige or the Russo bros. They're just way too nice, it's not entertaining.

Oh hmm. We'll see I guess.
The only reason the top spot is in contention for Endgame is because of China.
Re-releases are irrelevant now for newer releases. People need to let that idea go.
captain marvel also had luck without the fully packed summer release
emdgame will barely survive screens till july
toy story 4 will be a monster

Wow the worldwide gross over the weekend was pretty bad. Seems like the gas has run out internationally.
$110.5 million more to go to best Avatar. Hrmmmm....

On one hand, I would love to see Bone fail
On the other, that is a lot of people who would get owned if he wins lol
I still think if Disney thinks it can happen they'll make it happen

That's why I never bet without hedging my bets. Sometimes you just gotta learn the hard way.
