Hunger Games will top them all -- and will probably still be playing when summer officially (June 21) rolls around.

A week and a half for the Avengers to make a liar of me. Bravo.

But then again, a delete scene really isn't suppose to be part of any story line at all, right???
Great Stuff!
That scene along with others like Ripley with a flame thrower were put back into the film for the Directors cut and the re-release in theaters in 2003.
Now that I thought about it even more, the space jockey was by himself and the human crew all became those eggs...
my only question was what happened to the alien that created this scene?
Maybe the being died fighting with the last bit of human resistance in a suicidal explosion?

I didn't think "The Hunger Games" would be the top gross for 2012, but still think it will be in the Top-5. Expecting "Battleship" to not meet expectations...probably Spider-Man as well.
No doubt now, "The Avengers" will be the top gross for 2012....No movie this year is going to beat it.

I think it's almost safe to say it'll be Avengers. I wasn't expecting 200 million in one weekend. That's insane. I saw it twice and both times I saw it the theater was sold out, I had a friend who didn't buy tickets in advance who got to the theater at 9:30 and couldn't get in. So he had to wait until 3 showing later to get a ticket that wasn't sold out.

Just think the movie made 200 million in 3 days, if the movie drops by 55-60% in it's 2nd weekend it still makes 120 million in it's 2nd weekend, it's final gross domestically could be in the $500-550 million range, and will more than likely be over 1 Billion worldwide. That's a lot of cash.
