Up to #4 all-time. Needs $90 Million to pass the Avengers for #3

I might buy a ticket for Furious 7 that is playing around the same time as Avenger's II and sneak into Avenger's II just to increase that Furious 7 pot by $10

man... that is really insane.
Furious' reign as the domestic top grosser for 2015 will come to an end soon - Avengers is only $26 Million behind, so by end of week will pass Furious
Now $52 Million behind Avengers for #3 All-time Worldwide. Took in $38 Million world wide.
Now $52 Million behind Avengers for #3 All-time Worldwide. Took in $38 Million world wide.
Avengers blew past Furious 7 for Domestic Box Office Year lead - $372M to $344M
Furious is now 30th all-time Domestic (Avengers is at #25)
Furious is now $30 Million behind the original Avengers for World-wide all-time, but Ag of Ultron may pass them both - up to #8 all-time at 1.142 Billion

i'll be surprised if Ultron passes the original Avengers. I think it's domestic take will be what keeps it from rising above. Looks like it'll top out at around 450 million, which will be 180 million below what the original made and that'll be the difference.
Furious now at $347 Domestic, $1.499 Billion Worldwide. Today should pass 1.5 Billion today, only $19 Million behind Avengers
Ultron at $410 Domestic, $1.18 Billion Worldwide
Ultron at $410 Domestic, $1.18 Billion Worldwide

that's insane that Furious 7 is going to pass The Avengers. No one in their right mind could have predicted that.
I think the Chinese market helped - #1 All-time there, almost $400 Million

no doubt... international deniro is the driving force behind this box office bonanza. adding as diverse a cast of characters, globe-trotting all around the world has given has been the key to not just the longevity of the franchise, but the continued IMPROVED return on the studio's biggest investment. add in the Paul Walker death bump/send off and you've got a juggernaut.
Furious now at $349 Domestic, $1.506 Billion Worldwide - only $12 Million behind Avengers. Slowing down but should eventually pass them.
Ultron at $427 Domestic, $1.32 Billion Worldwide - could still beat both Avengers and Furious

Crazy. Think there will be a #8 now?
This is going to be a one time thing. You won't see this ever happen in again in the franchise. Future movies might make a ton but not like this. I know so many people who had never watched a single one of these in the theater that went to see it this time versus waiting for it on home video because of Paul Walker.
Already in the works
Why wouldn't they keep going. They will never stop making this movies. It will be like the Jame Bond movies. They will find a replacement for Dom(Vin) for FF 13.
Reminds me of the Jump Street bit at the end of their 2nd film.

Furious 7 Just Passed A Major Box Office Milestone
http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Furious-7-Just-Passed-Major-Box-Office-Milestone-72207.html
Furious 7 has made headlines left and right throughout the first half of 2015, what with its record breaking run helping contribute to Universal's banner year. As if the news for the film's place in the record books wasn't sweet enough, some new honey has been added to the pot. In addition to the countless cars and scores that Dominic Torretto and his family have made off with over seven films, they've now thieved something quite extraordinary into their clutches: the third highest international box office gross of all time.
Box Office Mojo’s recent numbers have revealed that the seventh entry in the Fast And Furious saga has now dethroned The Avengers for the third highest box office haul of all time. Just behind Avatar and Titanic, James Wan's action opus has arrived after dominating the beginning of the April box office and following through with some strong performances in the weeks that followed. Almost three months after its initial release, Furious 7 has signaled the franchise's legendary status in modern Hollywood, and it's an arrival that says a lot about the film market and the tastes of movie goers.

I just never got in to this franchise, I watch it when it goes to HBO or whatever but I was never interested enough to want to go see any of them in a theater. Obviously, it has a HUGE market as evidenced by the box office numbers, that is pretty impressive.
Way to steal my thunder, BIM
I wasn't sure if it would make it, but now at 1.520 BILLION
What's even more impressive is if you combined Furious 7's take + that of the #8 movie, Iron Man 3, you still wouldn't top Avatar.

It's amazing how Paul Walker's death galvanized this movie. It's not often you get to say goodbye to a character from a fan and actor perspective. Obviously, he was well liked. No future FF movie will ever sniff this territory IMO. It's amazing what this movie has done at the box office and we are not even counting home video sales yet. WOW!
This is it. An 80's action film with today's technology.
Funny, Commando is the first movie that came to mind when thinking of over-the-top 80's action flicks.
Still a top 10 World-wide All-time Gross
