Captain America: Civil War opened this weekend to lower than estimated numbers.
At first, it was said Captain America: Civil War might out do Avengers 2 with a $200 million opening or more.
However, that number was adjusted to around $188 million.
Then just yesterday saw the number estimated to around $181 million.
Now the most recent estimates have Captain America: Civil War bringing in $178 million, which of course is still not a bad number at all.
The $178 million figure also still gives Captain America: Civil War the fifth best domestic weekend opening, just passing Iron Man 3‘s $174 million.
Disney is expected to release official numbers later today.
