Marvel Studios sure do have a lot to boast about. As well as having the highest grossing superhero movie ever in the form of The Avengers, Iron Man 3 has today become the fifth biggest movie of all-time. As you can see from the stats below, only the final Harry Potter movie, The Avengers, Titanic and Avatar have beaten the third instalment in the Iron Man franchise. It's unlikely that it will now move any higher than #5, but do you guys think that the boost from Joss Whedon's superhero ensemble will mean that either Thor: The Dark World or Captain America: The Winter Soldier will manage to find their way onto the Top 10 list of box office hits as well? Sound off below!











Marvel Studios’ Iron Man 3 pits brash-but-brilliant industrialist Tony Stark/Iron Man against an enemy whose reach knows no bounds. When Stark finds his personal world destroyed at his enemy’s hands, he embarks on a harrowing quest to find those responsible. This journey, at every turn, will test his mettle. With his back against the wall, Stark is left to survive by his own devices, relying on his ingenuity and instincts to protect those closest to him. As he fights his way back, Stark discovers the answer to the question that has secretly haunted him: does the man make the suit or does the suit make the man?
