Well, it seems like The Avengers has hit a chord with quite a few people then, hit a chord to the tune of $200 million over it's opening weekend.
This has eclipsed the previous best opening weekend of $169 million in July 2011 by Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 and also means that Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises will need to amass a great haul to beat this record.
But when you consider that both The Dark Knight and Spider-Man 3 took just shy of $160 million when they were originally released maybe there is still hope for Christian Bale's latest rendition of the Caped Crusader and The Amazing Spider-Man.

It’s All Change For ‘Iron Man 3′
It all seems to be Marvel this and Marvel that at the moment in the world of cinema. And that trend is set to continue with the news that Jessica Chastain has dropped out of Iron Man 3 due to scheduling conflicts. But hold no fear as her replacement has already been line up with Rebbeca Hall set to replace the Tree Of Life star.
It's been rumoured that Hall's character will be that of Dr. Maya Hansen, a female scientist who is one of the co-creators of the Extremis virus that has the capability to destroy Tony Stark's rather impressive suit of iron.
Chastain took to the rather novel form of breaking this news through her Facebook page stating that she is "Sorry to say that Iron Man 3 isn't going to work out. My schedule is jammed packed and I can't fit anything else in. The press announced my possible attachment far too soon. I know many of you wanted me to be involved, and I'm sorry to disappoint you." Isn't that nice.
