“Titanic” director James Cameron tipped his hat to Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios for the historic box office success of “Avengers: Endgame.”
After just two weekends in theaters, “Avengers: Endgame” surpassed “Titanic” as the second-biggest movie of all time.
“Titanic,” a box office juggernaut in its own right, raked in a mighty $2.187 billion in global ticket sales.
So far, “Avengers: Endgame” has amassed $2.27 billion and counting.
Cameron noted that despite naysayers forecasting the death of multiplexes, “Avengers: Endgame” proves audiences will still come out for the right theatrical experience.
Of course, Cameron is still king of the box office — for now.
“Avatar” has remained the biggest movie ever, with $2.78 billion worldwide, for a decade. If “Avengers: Endgame” keeps steamrolling the box office at its current pace, it could give Cameron’s sci-fi epic a run for its money.
