If it hasn’t yet, BP is on track to be the highest grossing superhero film in the US. Not to be confused with ticket sales, Spider-Man and Avengers still have it beat there
And the so-called China snub never happened. At almost $100 billion million, BP is doing well enough there any characterization of 'poor performance' isn't true.

I think you meant ‘million’

As a comparison, here are some other major comic book movies adjusted for ticket price inflation.
Superman (1978) $526.5 million
Batman (1989) $577.9 million
Spider-Man (2002) $637.8 million
The Dark Knight (2008) $681.7 million
The Avengers (2012) $705.7 million
Of course, this is not the same as tickets sold, in which case all of these would top BP, but there's no denying this film's great success.

No longer number 1, but it was an impressive run.
Ready Player One is probably going to blow (almost) everything out of the water this weekend. It should be interesting to see how long BP stays in the top 5 now.

Black Panther was at Number 3 this weekend. Not too shabby for week 7.
By the end of this week it should be #10 globally of all time passing Frozen and #4 domestically passing Jurassic World.

Well it looks like BP will settle in at the #3 domestic spot, over Titanic. World Wide it just crossed 1.3 billion at #10, only 32 million behind Last Jedi and 41 million behind Deathly Hallows Part 2, if it can hold to the low drops in the lead up to Infinity War it could still pass them both but it's unlikely it will overtake Age of Ultron (1.4 billion).

I’m actually pretty curious to see how it performs in Saudi Arabia. It’s the first movie to be screened in the country in 35 years
Disney does a Black Panther victory lap...

Digital release May 8. I’m not sure what the fastest selling digital or Blu-Ray release record is, but I feel like this will set some records

It's out of the Top 5 now.
Super Troopers 2 and I Feel Pretty come out Friday, so it will probably move down to 8 (unless Blockers has a bad weekend competing with the other new comedies).

The film was slightly censored. Only 40 seconds, but the T’Challa/Nakia kiss was cut from the movie in Saudi Arabia.

Wow I actually called it. #8 for the weekend.

I expected good week-to-week holds for Black Panther but so far it looks like all the holds are sub -20%, Saturday was only -11%, that's just crazy. I guess everybody that said they wanted to catch BP one more time, or for the first time, before Infinity War are actually doing it.
I feel there might be a chance that BP may even rally a bit up the chart after IW.

If BP was playing near me, I would totally catch it again over the next couple weekends. Unfortunately, that’s not the case (waiting for the theatre that gets movies at the very end of their runs right now, so it will probably be there in 3 weeks).
Ready Player One and Rampage are probably about to take a major beating.
