I doubt The Avengers will top Titanic in international gross. Titanic is still sitting at $2.1 billion internationally (counting, admittedly, re-releases). That's $700+ million more than the third place movie, HP VII.
Only James Cameron seems to have mastered the super-slow-burn long-running box office champ to the level of Avatar and Titanic (Avatar broke no opening weekend records, but holds records for third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh weekends, and holds first in third and fourth even when adjusted for inflation.) I don't think Avengers will hold that same sort of sway for the next several weeks; it's a different kind of movie, at a very different time of year.
I wouldn't be surprised if it hits 1.5 billion internationally, but I doubt we'll see it beating either of the Cameron Epics.
Because everything deserves the Friends treatment, I repost for you: Loki'd:
Where they all become room mates and everyone hates Loki (except Thor doi) and so they are grumpy, but he also hates all of them so the twist is that Loki himself is constantly trolled.
Bruce is always Hulk cus he can’t tolerate Loki, but he is like, sophisticated Hulk cus he is trying really hard not to rage.

This is very apropos of art icons and the final scene of Avengers.
Great concept! But I'm not that crazy about the execution.
And on the "tip" thing -- I got nothing. If someone is so ignant that they don't see the callback to, what -- 10 minutes of screentime prior? -- then maybe they need to see a simpler movie.
At least one person is too unobservant to live.
Or two. I forgot about the prior scene when I saw it (and from the descriptions here, had the same thought about tipping).
I knew there was a bet, but I had forgotten over what over.

And is now my desktop background. Wonderful!
I also want a Black Widow/Hawkeye movie.
Mum was not impressed with Hill. And when lil bro informed her it was Robing from How I Met Your Mother, she became adamant that the actress was weak and should have been played by Erica Cerra.
I was not impressed with the
capsule of doom that Thor got tossed into. It seemed like he could have broken out of it a lot sooner if he'd had his wits about him (Oh, hey, let's stop bouncing round the room and punch through the glass!)
That Photoshop job is great!
