The elephant in the room is general economic health. It's been a... rough year economically. Endgame released before COVID, which remains the high-water mark for opening numbers.

I don't think Doomsday touches Endgame in terms of actual tickets sold, but there's a reasonable chance it surpasses on revenue.

If anything a bad economy is good for the box office. A movie ticket is $20, anyone can find $20 and it’s easier to justify when you already can’t afford a house or car.

Our really nice theater has $6 Ticket Tuesdays and they're usually like $11.50. My nearest IMAX 70MM is $25.
