This was immediately clear in the first 24 hours that advanced tickets for Infinity War went on sale, as the movie quickly became the best pre-selling superhero movie of all time, toppling Black Panther from the #1 spot.
However, despite its impressive pre-sales performance, Infinity War still wasn’t able to outperform the two most recent entries in the main Star Wars saga.
After years of waiting and just a few days after critics, celebrities and other lucky individuals were able to see it, Avengers: Infinity War is finally opening in theaters tonight.
