How is it doing "piss poor"? It led the UK all week, and in Hong Kong it beat Star Trek Beyond in admissions opening the same weekend. #1 in Australia too.

GirafficPark Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 It SHOULD have led the UK all week, it was the opening week with no competition. Hong Kong is one tiny market, that might not like star Trek for some reason. The proof of 'piss poor' is the piss poor gross its has got so far.

Purple Minion Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 GHOSTBUSTERS sucked up $10.7M overseas this weekend on 6,700+ screens, $52M total.— Exhibitor Relations (@ERCboxoffice) 31 July 2016 Screendaily: Opening top in Russia with $2.8m, Ghostbusters captured a further $10.7m for $52.1m to date, ahead of openings in Germany, France, Mexico and Spain over the coming fortnight. Paul Feig’s reboot also opened at number one in Italy with a $915k debut, while it took $1m for $7.9m in Australia and $785k for $12m in the UK, both after three weeks in play.

Blaze Heatnix Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Horrible overseas numbers for Ghostbusters. It only has 6 foreign markets left to release it. It won't be making 100 million overseas by any means. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acab Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 I didn't expect it to gross such low numbers OS. I know it's a reboot and all but i thought that the Ghostbusters brand name would have pushed it higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So about 65-70M from the current markets. And maybe 50-60M from Germany, France, Mexico and Spain in best case scenario. And I think Japan is left for a 10M or so. Best case scenario is looking like 140M OS combined with 130M domestic for 270M total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two more #1's in its latest major markets? South Korea, Mexico, France, Germany, Spain and Japan remain. It'll go over $100m eventually.

Its standard for any new release that isnt a complete and utter failure. You know that so why are trying to spin this as anything but poor?

Corpse Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) Don't underestimate its potential in Japan. Sony is giving it a significant promotional campaign, and the brand has remained a well-known property for thirty years. The original film was one of the biggest films of all-time at the time-of-release (5th!), and it helped inspire many domestic properties ever since. >It's receiving a Japanese dub cast which will help it appeal to a wider audience; the Japanese cast also released a music video featuring the Ghostbusters theme. >Advance tickets have been on sale since June 6th at six minutes after six (666), and many pre-sales incentives are being given out (LED pens, bags, etc.). >Various food chains are selling Ghostbusters themed food items such as Slimer Fries and the Marshmallow Mad Burger this summer. >The film's twitter handle is being handled by Kevin (Hemsworth's character). The new film will also have four days worth of previews over the lucrative Obon Festival holiday period prior to opening one week later. I'm not predicting it to have a blockbuster performance by any means, but don't be surprised if it performs notable well in Japan.

I'm not predicting it to have a blockbuster performance by any means, but don't be surprised if it performs notable well in Japan. I also have a feeling that this would do pretty well in Japan and Korea. Its potential in Japan is well explained above, and when it comes to Korea, it just seems to have scored a good release date. Not a strong competition it's gonna face (mostly just Star Trek in its 2nd wkd and that's a weak franchise here), and if it can do Spy numbers then that'd be like $15M. Not too bad.

Purple Minion Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Deadline The Sony pic added $6.4M this weekend with Germany getting its first glimpse at the team for $1.4M. It was the top opener in the market that is led by Pets. The international cume to date has climbed to $62.8M. Russia added $765K in its 2nd weekend from 2,282 screens, which brings its cume to $4.2M. Australia dipped by 49% in the 4th frame for a local cume of $8.6M. Still on deck to be slimed are France, Mexico, Spain, Japan and Korea. It should pass $200M WW, by how much depends on the last 5 markets listed above. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I think it'll goto $230m worldwide now. Spain, Mexico, Japan, Korea and France are left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GirafficPark Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 $230M WW is terrible for a movie that cost nearer $240M with marketing. Sony are getting about $130M of that back, thats a horrible loss that merchandising isnt going make up for. In fact if sales are bad there may be penalties to pay to the licensee. These merch deals usually have performance related clauses in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
