Endgame looks to fall short of Avatar by $45 million. Lame.

I think I'm going to give it another $25 or so and take my kids to see Thursday afternoon

Then you need to factor in that the US population in 1939 was about 130 million versus 326 million now.

You also need to factor in that it was re-released multiple times throughout the years. There was no home video
