“AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2” GROSSES P112.6-M, BIGGEST FIRST 2 DAYS IN HISTORY! via press release MANILA, May 02, 2014 – “The Amazing Spider-Man 2” shattered records as it grossed an electrifying P112.6-million from April 30 to May 1, now the biggest all-time first two days' gross in the country's history. This was announced today by Victor R. Cabrera, Managing Director of Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc., the film's local distributor. The sequel, in which Spider-Man faced off against super villains Electro and Green Goblin, surpassed the first two-day box office receipts of previous record-holder “Iron Man 3” (P110.9-M), as well as recent superhero blockbusters, namely “Marvel's The Avengers” (P100.8-M), “Man of Steel” (P92.7-M), “The Amazing Spider-Man” (P85.6-M), “Transformers: Dark of the Moon” (P53.8-M), “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” (P49.3-M) and “The Dark Knight Rises” (P36.6-M). Box-office earnings for “The Amazing Spider-Man 2” jumpstarted on April 30 with P49.43-M, breaching the highest opening day record for 2014. Figures dramatically rose the next day, May 1 with P63.14-M which also dethroned the crown for biggest Thursday gross ever. “Amazing 2” has already captured an impressive overseas gross of more than $155 million in just two weeks, and is expected to claim an opening of $100 million in the U.S. this weekend. In the Philippines, the largest earnings were posted by SM Mall of Asia at P6-M, followed by SM North EDSA, P5.53-M and SM Megamall, P5.54-M. The Top 4 to 20 cinemas include Trinoma (P4.29-M), Glorietta 4 (P3.18-M), SM Cebu (P2.88-M), Greenhills Promenade (P2.21-M), SM Southmall (P2.18-M), Alabang Town Center (P2.10-M), SM Aura (P2-M), Eastwood (P1.95-M), Power Plant (P1.85-M), Greenbelt 3 (P1.82-M), Newport (P1.78-M), Gateway (P1.77-M), Market! Market! (P1,709,866), SM Clark (P 1,709,476), Ayala Cebu (P1.64-M), Shang Cineplex (P1.63-M) and Robinsons Magnolia (P1.573-M). Rounding out the Top 30 theaters are SM Marikina (P1,570,875), SM Fairview (P1,570,353), Bonifacio High Street (P1.55-M), Robinsons Ermita (P1.50-M), Robinsons Galleria (P1.49-M), SM San Lazaro (P1.42-M), Festival (P1.38-M), Fisher Mall (P1.32-M), Sta. Lucia East (P1.29-M) and SM Manila (P1.24-M). In the film, Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield) feels there’s nothing quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city. With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful than he. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realize that all of his enemies have one thing in common: Oscorp. “The Amazing Spider-Man 2” is directed by Marc Webb and produced by Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach. Screenplay by Alex Kurtzman & Roberto Orci & Jeff Pinkner. Screen Story by Alex Kurtzman & Roberto Orci & Jeff Pinkner and James Vanderbilt. Based on the Marvel Comic Book by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. Now playing across the Philippines in IMAX 3D, Digital 3D and 2D formats, “The Amazing Spider-Man 2” is distributed by Columbia Pictures, local office of Sony Pictures Releasing International.

I love both women, I hope the budget is not over 30M though so it doesn't have to make that much to be called a success

Thanks for the info. I was not aware kids movies drop on Easter weekend

Another weak Saturday for Rio 2, this is really odd. Good for Cap 2 and Heaven

Star Cinema press release says Da Possessed grossed P17M on Black Saturday. I don;t think it will reach 100M though because it only has until April 29 as TASM2 will invade the screens on April 30

http://sonofthebronx.blogspot.com/2014/04/nickelodeon-nick-jr-nicktoons-teennick_19.html Ratings for Nick and wow at Spongebob dominance. 29/30 of their top rated slots are all Spongebob eps lol

Transcendence is not a WB release here in the Philippines. So did WB sold off the international rights for the movie or are they just the distributor in NA?

A Haunted House was released here so were one of the few overseas market to have it then, eh lol The sequel is also now showing here

Opening tomorrow (April 19) Da Possessed Transcendence A Haunted House 2 The Love Punch The Grand Budapest Hotel (in Ayala Malls) Heaven is For Real Hunter x Hunter (in SM Malls)

Well this is a good for him after his TV series Rake flopped

Heaven is For Real has a good cast (Greg Kinner, Kelly Reilly, Thomas Haden Church, Margo Martindale) and the look of the movie does not look low budgeted and may likely appeal to a more broader audience
