That's the second best opener of the year behind only Mario, and ahead of MCU comic book films GotG 3 and Ant-Man.

INTSV was an unknown quantity going head to head with an established Marvel franchise that already had a good Spiderman character, so it started slow and grew.
ATSV is going to preform like a normal marvel movie +/- 2.5 x opening. Should land at a very respectable $400M+/-, nice growth from the first movie, but I think the $35M opening to $190 total doesn't really play into the projections for this one going forward. Far from home and The Batman are probably good points of comparison based on this weekend.
