It was also almost one and a half times larger (146%) than the opening weekend of it's predecessor, Captain America: The First Avenger. A major point of this increase would have been due to Cap's appearance in the superhero team juggernaut film known as The Avengers (#1 movie in 2012) that also featured the main character Captain America prominently. It is currently the #1 opening weekend ever for the month of April. It is Marvel's 5th biggest opening weekend.
