Marvel movies have a history of setting Twitter on fire. Twitter Movies crowned Black Panther as the most-tweeted movie on March 20, 2018, with 35 million tweets. That was an impressive achievement, but Endgame's number blew it away.
Avengers: Endgame can likely look forward to a long Twitter reign. That's worth a celebratory snap.
