Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3"s Box Office Defies the MCU"s Multiverse Saga

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3's new box office numbers defy the current Multiverse Saga. James Gunn's final Marvel movie has set a new record for the MCU in the post-pandemic era. However, the success of Guardians 3 could also be used as a critique of past MCU films that have been more focused on concepts of the multiverse with alternate timelines and realities.
Based on a new report from Deadline, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 has "the best second-weekend hold for a Marvel Cinematic Universe title post-pandemic at a great -51% with $58M". The movie's opening weekend put the final Guardians film at $118M. Not only is -51% for a second weekend better than the previous two Guardians movies (-55%), but it's quite telling that it's the best second-weekend numbers Marvel Studios has had since the end of the pandemic. It's also worth noting that the most recent MCU movie with better second-weekend numbers was during COVID with Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.
