RUR's been weak for last few months, probably they want to make up for it
btw, Leyla, have you had a chance to look at those burly blond furcoated Russians at last?
Not WB, but Marvel/Disney is.
Not sure how NYT and Amazon charts play into this, since majority of comic sales go through Diamond anyway. Probably some correction will be in order once July numbers are in, but so far it does not look to be making any kind of splash really.
Really interested to see how the film does in China and Japan. Have a small doubt about optimistic Japan prospects. Is Japan that eager to see GDT (or anyone else, for that matter) playing around with their very own tropes (tokusatsu/mecha)?
Magnificent Seven was doing gangbusters at Soviet BO. Stagecoach, too. So yea, they could.
And I'm guessing selling point for Mackennas Gold was Omar Sharif, not Peck. He was totally hot in those days.
GU2 WW topping PR WW would be hilarious and abominable at the same time.Considering the investments that went into each movie, though, financial and otherwise, it should be little consolation if PR ends up over GU2.. Also, Sandler is not a strong draw OS. Not that modernized creature features are, as turns out.
Not a given. Opened solid in SK and Russia, yes. Likely to be big in China and should do fine in Japan.Everywhere else #s are meh at best; UK OW is $3.3m, that's below AE opening.Reaching $400 WW could be a bumpy ride.
2nd wknd for PacRim looks like $16-17 max with this Tue #. This and TLR could post similar final DOM numbers, all said and done. Not good at all. For either.
"It's not done, but it's closer to being done than when we started. We're on track for October, it's mostly shot. We're still shooting but it's mostly done."
