I don't know if you also have note this: frozen actually rank #18 in the billion club but rank #4 considering only original releases: 1 Avatar Fox $2,782.3 ORIGINAL 2 Titanic Par. $2,186.8 ORIGINAL 3 Marvel's The Avengers BV $1,518.6 FRANCHISE 4 Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 WB $1,341.5 FRANCHISE 5 Iron Man 3 BV $1,215.4 SEQUEL/FRANCHISE 6 Transformers: Dark of the Moon P/DW $1,123.8 SEQUEL 7 The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King NL $1,119.9 SEQUEL 8 Skyfall Sony $1,108.6 FRANCHISE 9 The Dark Knight Rises WB $1,084.4 SEQUEL 10 Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest BV $1,066.2 SEQUEL 11 Toy Story 3 BV $1,063.2 SEQUEL 12 Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides BV $1,045.7 SEQUEL 13 Jurassic Park Uni. $1,029.2 RE-RELEASED IN 3D (2013) 14 Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace Fox $1,027.0 PREQUEL 15 Alice in Wonderland (2010) BV $1,025.5 ORIGINAL 16 The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey WB $1,017.0 PREQUEL 17 The Dark Knight WB $1,004.6 SEQUEL 18 Frozen BV $1,001.5 ORIGINAL if you agree that my classification is correct, it must be recognized that Frozen's box office performance is truly amazing.

Frozen hit #1 for non consecutive 14 days, the last time at day 73 of release!!!.

Actuals for "belle et sebastien": € 6.872.940 adm 1.126.440. I think that this is impossible to do for "la belle et la bete" 5M euros/800k adm is the final projection for me. Too much competition.

FROZEN THURSDAY 6 MARCH DOMESTIC MILESTONES: PASSES 390M 100 CONSECUTIVE DAYS IN TOP 10!!! Only 4 movies have done better in past 20 years: Titanic, Chicago, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and My Big Fat Greek Wedding. (yes, no Avatar, it end its run at 98).

For 500m WW need 270 DOM + 230 OS. it takes another big weekend in U.S. and very good news from Australia and Germany. In Japan will be in direct competition with a widely anticipated "Frozen". We'll see

no good news from Italy: even at #1 and out of top 10 at day 15 of release without direct competition. final projection near 500.000 admissions (frozen near 3.000.000)

I'm sorry, but Frozen in 3D is wonderful, it is the best 3D movie I've ever seen. (of course it is one of the best also in 2D or 1D or 0D or -1D .......)

I was not talking about a single movie, but the total number of spectators: the number of tickets sold in the four weeks between December and January, according to official data provided by SIAE, are around 20% of the entire year. and for this reason the films that have a guaranteed success are scheduled in periods where there is less competition. For example, "Sole a Catinelle" probably would have realized a less gain if it had come in December. Another example: Frozen boxoffice from 22 december to 6 january: USA 27% of total (now yet running) vs ITALY 73% of total (now out of run) I agree with you regarding the summer sorry for some of my eventual inaccuracy (I always try to collect data from certain sources), and especially for my awful English (per Omni: se, come immagino, sei italiano, scusa per il mio inglese peggiore di quello di google traduttore)

Is a kind of tradition to go to the cinemas with the family at that time, something that rarely happens at other times of the year, although holidays. for example, in the summer, cinemas in Italy are virtually "closed for holidays"

Increase due to the "miracles" of Sole a catinelle $69,903,094 and Frozen $26,421,884 (Brave $9,388,138 , Wreck-It Ralph $8,874,344, Tangled $14,670,362, The Princess and the Frog $13,157,233 in the past years) But you can always hope for miracles........

apart from rare exceptions, the Italian market produces large numbers only during the christmas and new year holidays (23 december to 6 january)
