Looking at the first and second Captain America films the big difference is overseas boom which I did not expect. I guess Avengers did a lot to make people outside the U.S. accept him.
The First Avenger (Totals)
Domestic: $176,654,505 47.7%
+ Foreign: $193,915,269 52.3%
= Worldwide: $370,569,774
The Winter Solider (Thus Far)
Domestic: $162,345,947 33.8%
+ Foreign: $317,700,000 66.2%
= Worldwide: $480,045,947
Going from 52% to 66% is a massive swing to me.
