Yeah, JW is clearly above the first Avengers now I expect Furious 7 to be slightly above the first Avengers movie once its final numbers are released. Its odd that box office mojo stopped tracking the daily domestic numbers for Furious 7 after JW's first weekend.

Not really, this happens when 2 very big movies from the same studio , which is Universal in this case, release one after another. Universal simply gave away all of Furios 7's screens to JW at the moment of the latter's release. The studio itself also stopped trying to track Furious 7 because it had already done all the money it could've squeezed out of the audience and wasn't doing significant numbers anymore.

It's still odd since Cinderella is still getting accurately tracked and at this point I'm pretty sure its even in less theaters then Furious 7 seven since it got released before it (both are on their discount theater run).
