I don't know maybe I expect too much. I'd have to think not even beating Deadpool would be a massive disappointment for them, even if the worldwide numbers to prop up the box office.

Maybe -- the article is worded a little strange, but the way I saw it was that, two weeks
prior to release, it is out-pacing all those movies were at two weeks prior to their releasem and is at the level The Dark Knight Rises was at
just before release. A lot can happen in those two weeks -- if it maintains or builds hype it could crush everything, but if it stops here it would probably end in the $130-140 million range.
