They avenged the fallen and then some.
Avengers: Endgame surpassed all expectations and has gone on to break box office records and become the highest-grossing box office opening of all time.
Disney announced that the film had taken home $1.209 billion worldwide in its opening weekend, breaking the opening-day record of last year's Avengers: Infinity War which took home $640.5 million.
If that's not enough, Box Office Mojo has stated the film took $1.015 billion at the global box office in its opening weekend, meaning it is definitely the first film to join the billion-dollar club in its opening weekend.
This is the eighth Marvel Studios film to join that special group of films.
The following records were also taken home by the Mickey Mouse studio, which also owns huge properties such as the Star Wars franchise and its Pixar animation films.

The film also made a domestic US single-day gross of $156.7 million on Friday, while in China it made $107.8 million on its opening day, along with $330.5 million in its opening weekend there.
Endgame also has the biggest IMAX global debut ever at $91.5 million.
Safe to say Disney will be pleased with this result?
Will it now become the highest-grossing film of al time?
