That's excellent.

Any numbers for South Africa?

Basically surpassed the entirety of the Tranformers franchise ($4.8B) and Pirates franchise ($4.5B) in one year and only $317M behind the whole Fast franchise.

It will be the first movie in history with loading screens

CM 718K according to Deadline, 67% drop.

I can't give you numbers, but I'm pretty sure BP reigns supreme in a lot of African territories. Biggest movie of all time here in SA.

Local papers reporting that IW absolutely trounced Black Panther's opening weekend record at 24.6M rand. I can't begin to tell you how utterly obscene that number is. My math is a bit sketchy but that is like a 35% increase!

Okay, did some calculations. We basically have two major chains, Ster-Kinekor and Nu Metro. Nu Metro is a bit more expensive but not by much. Overall, when using the current dollar-rand exchange rate the average 2D ticket is about 6.35 dollars while the average 3D ticket is about 8 dollars. IMAX is about 10.6 dollars

As someone who lives in SA, thank you for starting this thread. I'll try to post some current ticket prices later when my wifi signal is better. Also, tried to go watch IW today and failed. Five screens all sold out for the rest of the day :-(

Avengers was the highest grossing movie in South Africa back in 2012. Black Panther will make more than double its amount. Surreal.

Thanks, Rth. Can you give me a number for South Africa?

If only mredman was still here to regale us with his wisdom.

That expression on her face, that's all you're getting the entire movie.

The cinematography is actually quite impressive at times, especially some of the wide shots. But yeah, I don't know if that warrants a 70M budget.
