Minions was actually the widest release this year it opened in 4,301 theater and got expanded to 4,311 for a couple of days.  Avatar isn't even in the top ten it opened in 3,452 theaters and it got expanded to 3,456 and then 3,461 both those counts lasted for one week.  The widest release ever was actually The Twillight Saga: Eclispe 4,468 theater for three days June 30, 31 and July 9th in 2010.


I thought the question was about whether it would have the highest gross without any re-releases, since it followed a discussion about how it wouldn't pass Titanics final tally (including a 3D re-release), so that is what I answered. I don't see why it would have anything to do with theatre counts.

Since spurge was talking about the largest initial release I was assuming he was talking about theater counts.
