We all knew THE AVENGERS was going to open huge, but now we know how huge it is going to be.

Based on a press release from MovieTickets.com, THE AVENGERS is tracking at one and a half times the pre-sales of IRON MAN, IRON MAN 2, THOR, and CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER combined (at the same point in the sales cycle).

From the press release: MARVEL’S THE AVENGERS is selling 3,995% more tickets than CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER at the same point in the sales cycle.

MARVEL’S THE AVENGERS is selling 1,034% more tickets than THOR at the same point in the sales cycle.

MARVEL’S THE AVENGERS is selling 114% more tickets than IRON MAN 2 at the same point in the sales cycle.

MARVEL’S THE AVENGERS is selling 1,406% more tickets than IRON MAN at the same point in the sales cycle.

56% of pre-sales for MARVEL’S THE AVENGERS are from fans wanting to see the film in 3D. Nearly 37% of pre-sales for MARVEL’S THE AVENGERS are from moviegoers buying tickets to see the film in IMAX 3D.

What this tells us is that the film is going to open somewhere in the range of 160-200 million, or more.  That is a very, very nice opening weekend for a movie and one hell of a way to kick the summer movie season off.  There will likely be a drop off in week two, but those numbers will cement sequels to both THE AVENGERS as well as the likely Black Widow/Hawkeye spin-off.

Do you already have your tickets purchased for THE AVENGERS opening May 4th?
