Lucasfilm Congratulates Marvel For Infinity War's Record Breaking Opening Weekend

Lucasfilm has congratulated Marvel on their record-breaking opening weekend for Avengers: Infinity War. In the signed picture by 'Kathy' which is of course Kathleen Kennedy, we see a hand holding a lightsaber passing it on to an Ironman hand. The words say:

"From a galaxy far, far away...to Earth's Mightiest Heroes...congratulations on the biggest opening weekend in history! From Kathy and everyone at Lucasfilm!"

This congratulatory message continues in a tradition that has seen Steven Spielberg and George Lucas exchange congratulation messages when their big movie has surpassed the others. Here's a few examples from over the years:

Paul Freeman talks about the famous 'fly' scene in an interview with TheIndyExperience.com and settled 'flygate:' This is a bit of a dicey question so don’t get too upset. (Laughs) A movie’s always got bloopers in it, some have a lot, and some only have three or four. And the most remarkable blooper was right before the opening of th

UK film studio Pinewood Shepperton has announced plans to build its first sound stages in the United States. The Pinewood Atlanta complex will be built on 288 acres of land south of Atlanta, Georgia, as a joint venture with a US investment company.
