World turns out for record ‘Avengers: Endgame’ movie debut

That film ended with a cliff-hanger in which many heroes appeared to turn to dust, stoking anticipation for “Endgame.” To meet demand, theatres added show times and sold out shows at odd hours such as 7 a.m. AMC Entertainment, operators of the world’s largest theatre chain, kept some locations open for 72 hours straight to keep running “Endgame.

“Endgame” proved to be a global cultural phenomenon. A sign at a London subway station urged riders not to talk about the movie’s plot so they would not spoil it for others, according to a photo posted on Twitter by Disney Chief Executive Bob Iger. Some fans in China paid more than 500 yuan, or $74.14, for “Endgame” tickets on the gray market, far more than the average 60 yuan average price at cinemas nationwide. In Hollywood, Susan Macias, 44, watched all 22 Marvel films at the historic El Capitan Theatre in a sold-out marathon that concluded with “Endgame.”

“It was well worth the three days of being in there,” Macias said afterward. “I’m just full of emotions.”
