pepsa Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 80 RUB per USD. I already said that Hobbit is so lucky. Our main box office tracking site kinometro calcullate box office grosses in USD using opening day exchange rates. And it was 54.2758 per USD. So if it will gross 1.8 billion RUB that would be still around 33 mln instead of 22-23 mln by current plunging exchange rates. It's not lucky, every dat from now on is -60% incomparison with DoS.

Hernan Gonzalez Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 "Russian rouble in free-fall despite shock 17% rate rise" http://m.bbc.com/news/business-30492518 Poor Exodus... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juni78ukr Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 On Russia Film Market people were mostly dissapointed with Exodus. Boring, too long, not for holidays and so on. But at the same time they were very excited about Seventh Son. Everyone think it will do huge money here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 80 RUB per USD. I already said that Hobbit is so lucky.

So if it will gross 1.8 billion RUB that would be still around 33 mln instead of 22-23 mln by current plunging exchange rates. Ya except I doubt that Hobbit and WB really cares. Everyone saw this coming and WB would be stupid to not have hedged its risk against the Rouble's slide. If they're smart, it would've been hedged when the rouble was in the 40s and if they're not stupid, they would've hedged when the rouble was at 54.2758. This is one of the reasons why many firms have yet to raise their prices because everyone hedges against global currency risk and the only people who are on the losing end are many hedge funds or investors or institutions that guaranteed these hedges. I'm actually surprised that Apple raised their prices and now suspended their website. I think that it shows inadequate macroeconomic planning because they should've hedge; however, with that being said, I have no doubt they did but massively underestimated how much they needed, especially with the recent rush to consume in Russia before prices are raised so it was likely not incompetency, but simply not forseeing the scale, which I doubt is pretty significant for Apple seeing how big of a company it is and how much revenue it brings in.

But at the same time they were very excited about Seventh Son. Everyone think it will do huge money here. OMG Im very very excited by this! everyone wrote down the "7th son" here on this forum but I want it to be big! So many amazing actors! Exodus will be fine imo (in rub obviously) like Ronin last year On holidays ppl just go see a blockbuster no matter what it is Just something epic to celebrate & cheer It's not lucky, every dat from now on is -60% incomparison with DoS. well 10 mil less than DOS is OK actually. (I still hope for $35mil actually) But you must agree that 30+ is waaaay better then 20+ (& less than Nolanatic 2D "masterpiece" would be absolutely disastrous) Edited December 17, 2014 by Lady of Lorien 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juni78ukr Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 What news for Astérix ? Kinometro predicted 110 mln RUB OW. Around 3 mln with old exchange rates but only 1.6 mln with Thursday official exchange rates. Personally, I think they went a bit high. Nothing really interesting this week. Hobbit will easily win even with 65% drop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
