yes they're within a whisker of becoming the biggest movie-money-maker (not accounting for inflation) of all-time, and feel it needs a boost to make sure it gets there. If it has an edit with new material I'll go again, but if it's just tacked on deleted scenes I won't bother they are usually yawnsome taken out of context.

Sadly this isn't enough to boost it past Avatar. It's not being re-released or anything, it's still in theatres. There's no talk of it expanding the theatre count either. I think it'll just be a the Katherine Langford deleted scene (or maybe one that shows where Gamora went after the battle) and a Stan Lee tribute.
It's so close to Avatar, it's painful. After this weekend, it'll be less than $40m but it's already out of nearly all theatres internationally so there's just no more money to be made. It'll scrape another $10m out of the US but that's it. |

For only 7 extra minutes? Not worth it.

Officially the biggest film of all-time.
What a day for Marvel with this news and all the announcements at Comic-con (Blade  )

Well it depends how far it will go from Avatar because coming 2021 I am expecting Avatar will comeback to theatres again and might claim 1st spot again lol

I can't see Avatar 2 toppling Endgame somehow. The first film was released a decade ago and I'm pretty sure it was only as big as it was due to the fact that it was one of the first films in 3D, which made a lot of people want to see it. I personally don't think I've seen Avatar more than twice and genuinely can't remember the plot at all...

Avatar 2 won't top the Avengers but most likely the first Avatar will be re-released when time comes for Avatar 2 release, and it might be back to the top!! |

I doubt Disney will allow that. They're more likely to put Avatar on Disney+ to get some views and coin in the run up to the movie. Avatar 2 won't come close to Avatar 1's gross. The buzz and gimmick has worn off and very few people care about the franchise. everyone can name characters from Star Wars and Avengers but not many can with Avatar. I can see it finishing top 30/20 of all time maybe? |

I know there was never a realistic chance it would be, but this really should've been the end of the MCU, it was such a fitting ending and their last truly great film. I don't even know where they're going with this new phase and I really can't be bothered to watch a million shows and do homework before even understanding what's going on, especially when the heroes themselves are really difficult to care about.

Absolutely. I relatively recently did a hatewatch* of the MCU up to Endgame and while some of that felt like doing homework, it was a good payoff in the end. If they'd stopped all production of it for a few years (and with foresight, going into 2020, would have been a perfect time to), then a return would be actually welcomed right about now and would probably break more box-office records etc. Almost everything after that has been of absolutely zero interest to me and there's so many movies and TV shows it feels like every month I hear about a new one failing to meet expectations and getting poor reviews. It's got to be a losing proposition long run because they were never topping hype for Endgame the way they'd built up to it.
*is joke, most of them are average films with a few good ones here and there, I just hadn't seen all of them, wasn't so into many of the ones I had, and wanted to tick them off once and for all, GOTG especially was a nice watch I hadn't seen before. |

This All the MCU films are kinda hackneyed and range from eh, it's okay, to utterly abysmal. The OG 5 Spiderman films with Osny are just so much better. |

They took the wrong strategy with Disney+ and over saturated the quality. Lots of the MCU films are ok, but there are only a handful of truly great ones. It sounds like the writers/actors strike came at the right time and they've changed their strategy going forward. |
