Updated Monday: According to Variety, Guardians of the Galaxy made $160.4 million worldwide!
Yesterday, thoughts were that Marvel's latest film Guardians of the Galaxy would take in around $100 million dollars over the weekend (talk about some dough!) While it didn't quite make it there, it did come very close, hitting $96 million and earning the highest film opening in August of all time. To put it short, Marvel isn't quitting anytime soon.
