Think that has more to do with the stale competition rather than anything.
Movies lately (minus a few, obviously) really just suck. Or at least they look shit.

MIB3 knock over The Avengers since most of the fans already seen the movie and that MIB3 is a Will Smith movie. His movies always make a lot of money seeing that MIB3 already gross over 300 million worldwide after a week being released in theaters.

I think I liked Dark Shadows and MIB3 more than the Avengers.

Dark Shadows would be a movie Id watch more just because it's not so intense. It's lighter and less involved. And shorter. Is it better then The Avengers? No, not on any level. I am shocked a Johnny Depp/Tim Burton film did so poorly compared to other nonsense they make (Alice in Wonderland..).

MIB3 ....cant say Im interested. MIIB was cute but it's taken it to a goofy level. It's not even serious anymore IMHO. The end of MIIB was a huge letdown and EXTREMELY predictable. MIB3 just looks like more hokey Will Smith stupid action like Wild Wild West

This may be a bit premature, but I expect when totals are calculated for Monday ticket receipts that The Avengers will have reached the 600 Million mark for Domestic U.S. This effectively ties Titanic from its initial release. Sadly Titanic tacked on another 58M due to a bogus 3D rerelease, so I dont expect The Avengers to break that record, especially with a couple more summer blockbusters coming in July, but it would be nice. I have been thoroghly impressed with all the records broken/tied by The Avengers thus far. Any Avengers sequel will be hard pressed to meet or exceed this level of success.

Avengers is #3 worldwide ever (non-adjusted) I believe.

Hulk's movie... didn't do too well. Fans liked it, Critics... not so much... Hulks's probably going to be relegated to just being in the Avenger's movies, or if he's lucky, a role in one of the other three movies (Iron Man 3, Thor 2 (Most likely), or Captain America 2)

That would suck.Don't get me wrong it'd be cool if he were in one of the other 3 movies too, but in the last movie we were introduced to The Leader and Leonard Samson(aka Doc Samson),leading to the psychological dynamic of Hulk as well as facing a foe much smarter than he is.

I would love for another Hulk movie just for more Ruffalo.

Yeah I heard they may be making another Hulk movie. Nothing is confirmed though.

But you have to think...it's the freakin' Hulk! There will be another film with him as the lead again at some point!

In the tradition of "The Consultant" and "A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To Thor's Hammer" DVD/Blu-Ray featurettes, comes "ITEM 47". Included with THE AVENGERS home video release on September 25. ITEM 47 tells the story of a young couple who get ahold of one of the Chitauri's weapons left over in the wake of therir failed invasion. And the bad decisions they make with it.

I would cry sweet tears of joy. It is interesting that they even humored the idea of working together, though. Thanks for sharing, miguel.
