Avengers it's already at 1.5 billion iron man 3 will make maximum of 850 million it might get something like 900 million but I'm guessing 850mil

Iron Man 3 is guaranteed to finish over 1b ww.
But I doubt it'll beat Avengers. As much as I like IM3, Avengers was more epic, more fun and was the first time anyone has seen a bunch of seperate movies merge into one collasal one. But IM3 will benefit greatly from Avenger's success and come fairly close.

I honestly don't know who's watching this film. it sucks.

And they charge you so much money for the 3D, which is why I think its made so much money so quickly.

I was looking at it as iron man 1 got 600 million and 2 got about 600 million too I didn't think It would get to 1 billion but after a bit of looking at articles getting the 2 best opening (behind the avengers) maybe it will reach 1 billion 

Yeah defiantly now you think of it it's probably gonna be the last one so it could be a close one 

Well it's already trailing the Avengers, and considering some of the damming reviews criticising the heavy shift towards lighthearted humor, I imagine it won't catch up. Remember guys, RDJ as Tony Stark is serious business.

iron man 3 to break 1 billion mark.... dont under estimate the ww ticket sales especially the chinese market... they are going all out

I don't think it will get that far

I thought it was fantastic when I saw it, but some word of mouth and reviews from America seem to be less positive. Very very few people who saw the Avengers had a bad word to say about, but I few do here

It doesn't hugely matter though. I don't think RDJ wants to do a 4th Iron Man film, so it hopefully won't force them to make a sequel and it is clearly profitable. Marvel aren't going to be slowing down their production schedule any time soon

Well while I say that they won't want to slow down their Marvel films, equally I don't think that they will want to go for more than movies per year. So I agree with you here, we won't be seeing any individual Iron Man films certainly for a while as they move onto newer characters and films (Guardians of the Galaxy, Ant Man etc)

I do have to quickly disagree about Sherlock. There are 3 different current interpretations, Sherlock Holmes, Sherlock (BBC) and Elementary. I only watch Sherlock, I tried to watch RDJ's version, but it just seemed wrong and confusing

Maybe SPOILER, but after the film, it did certainly say RDJ and Iron Man will return and as well as this, they have vaguely said that the original roster for the Avengers will return for the Avengers 2. I wouldn't be too sure about further films beyond that, I am sure they will want to include their newer characters without everything exploding out of control. I must say I think that Iron Man has been the best so far, but Marvel seem to know what they are doing with their other characters I guess, I will certainly miss Iron Man though

I don't think it will do better than Avengers but it certainly will cross $1 billion.
