That really isn't a big deal.
A lot of movies beat Avatar's opening weekend. However, I doubt that AiW is going to have a second weekend anywhere near Avatar.
Its a decent movie. Not something you'd want to watch more than once. The 3D effects are nowhere near as prevalent as they are in Avatar. |
I don't think you understand.
Alice in Wonderland is the sixth biggest opening weekend of all time, behind huge movies.
And it's the biggest opening weekend that is not a sequel.
I compared it with Avatar mostly because of the IMAX aspect.
Look at this list:

And look at the movies close to Alice in Wonderland.
It's amazing!

It depends on how you look at it:
Is AiW hitting ~$120m in March a great number? Yes, absolutely. However, if your trying to compare AiW to Avatar because of first week numbers, then I hate to say it, but your dumb. I've been analyzing the box office far longer than video games, and the problem with AiW is that the legs of AiW are going to be horrible compared to Avatar.

I watched both movies in IMAX 3D. Theres no comparison.

No of course Alice won't beat Avatar. That's not what I'm trying to say here.
I'm just comparing this weekend. I didn't say anything about lifetime.
