VIDEO : Avengers? Shatters Box-Office Record

Like other recent Marvel movies, Avengers: Infinity War will likely dominate the box office for weeks to come after crushing multiple records ? including the opening weekend record ($257.70 million) previously set by Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($247.96 million) in December 2015. One might imagine that the news arrived as a blow to a few egos in a galaxy far, far away, but that isn?t the case. At least, not outwardly, and in the game of healthy competition, Lucasfilm has now duly passed the baton to Marvel.
