edroger3 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) Following the extraordinary performance of Frozen in Japan we wondered what were the highest grossing film in a single international market and we have drawn up a provisional ranking based on data from North American sources as Boxofficemojo and with the help of China and Japan overseas forums members.

Rudolf Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 (edited) "Untouchable" was the title used in th UK only. "Intouchables" was the original French title and the United States "The Intouchables" was used. Why choose this version?

Fullbuster Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Russia has a long way to go before entering this list.Its biggest film is Avatar with 120m,and POTC4 with 65m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK007 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Soon it will be filled with Chinese films or China. Mao's Little Red Book $8,984m Avatar 6 $3,589m The Avengers 4 $1,180m Transformers 5 $780m I'm sure the maximum limit must be huge. Maybe a billion? You get US grossing $600-700m on a population 4x less, China should easily manage $1b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
