Ditto Captain America: Civil War, which pitted Avengers against each other and introduced Black Panther and Spider-Man while again offering a game-changing plot. While Thor: Ragnarok is more Thor 3 than Avengers 2.75, it does offer plenty in the realm of “added value”. If Thor 3 plays like Thor 2, we’re looking at a $430m foreign gross which frankly puts $650m worldwide in question. The leggier films (Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Guardians of the Galaxy, Ant-Man) earned around 15-17% of their overseas cumes on opening weekend. 2 earned 22% of its eventual $473m overseas cume via said $106m overseas launch.
