Their only somewhat risky movie this year is GOTG. They seem to have become wiser/ chosen safer routes.What Disney has coming in 2nd half of 2014? They sure love to pair hits wit flops. Gotta have some 200-million stinker to take away all the money they made on Cap, X and Malf

Well, she was 90% of the movie, so I guess that's good?Jolie was literally the only good thing about Mal.

The Dame is meaning business.That could be the best OW for foreign live action movie since HP8 in 2011.

Lovely movie. Very rewatchable.Speaking of Knightley, has anyone here seen BEND IT LIKE BECKHAM? I need someone to share my pain.

In the UK at least, I think her 2002-2007 filmography is enough for her to maintain the "household name" status.Was Keira Knightly ever really anything more than just The Pirates Girl?

This is pretty much where I stand. Studio executives need a serious wake-up call. Women make up half of the population and yet you have 6 summer blockbusters mostly targeting men (TASM2, DOFP, Godzilla, TF4, GOTG, Apes) and one mostly targeting women (Maleficent).Although it wasn't that great of a movie, I kinda hope Maleficent wins the summer just so it will encourage studios to release more blockbusters starring female characters.

I am not disputing your accuracy, indeed I greatly admire your and others' work. I was just wondering why, since most website use the BOM figure, there has been no article around the net stating that Frozen has beaten Spirited Away, as there have been when it reached the top three of all time in Japan. Also, wouldn't Disney be eager to claim that they have the highest grossing movie ever in USD?The latter. And that's why I never bold USD totals. It is certain it made over $229 million though, there's no disputing this fact. A lot of websites just go to BOM for their numbers, too, and Spirited Away's weekly performance at BOM is messy (and that's putting it very, very kindly). Just look at THIS: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=intl&country=JP&id=y .htm That's not right in any world. LOL. It's total goes up and down (peaking in week 33...), and its increase in total is less than it made for just the weekend fame for most of those weeks BOM has tracked. Never use BOM for figures if there's any detailed analysis provided by someone else, even if it's a forum member like you or me. BOM has a lot of wrong numbers.

Are the numbers for Spirited Away (whether $244m or $249m rather than $229m) found in any official report/ box office tracking website? Or do they come from box office analysis of the chart run by independent users on forums?All-Time Top-Grossing Films (USD)01 :: $249.0 million - Spirited Away (2001)02 :: $237.9 million - Frozen (2014) [108 Days in Release]03 :: $212.0 million - Titanic (1997)

Isn't Oz mostly popular in America (and to a lesser, though still large, extent the Commonwealth)?And Oz made just $18M total. LOL.

InsideKino also tells you that Maleficent is about to become in Germany the fifth best-attended American movie of the year so far (second of the summer so far), so I don't get how you can say that the Germans don't care about it. The argument is better for France, however.Think you should look for a website called indeskino.

Your teacher should see my teacher.Geography class. I may have just had a bad teacher though.

From what I have been taught (and what you find in most encyclopaedias, at least in the languages I know), Scandinavia is Denmark, Norway and Sweden. Some add Iceland and the Faroe Islands, because they speak related North Germanic languages which all descend from Old Norse. Finland has a completely different language, so is normally not included. The term which encompasses Scandinavia + Finland + Greenland is Nordic Countries (hence the Nordic, rather than Scandinavian, Council).Including Finland within Scandinavia is here regarded as one of the most common basic mistakes, the one in which the Geography teacher will usually test you. I have met many people from the Scandinavian kingdoms and all seemed to agree on this definition.... Finland isn't Scandinavia?

Are you joking or serious?What? Yes it is, you knucklehead.

It's an absolutely wonderful film.I believe Russian Ark is up on Netflix at the moment. I think I have it in my queue but haven't watched it, yet.
-
Finland is not part of Scandinavia.Nope. I've seen Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish, but haven't completed the Scandinavian circuit.

The Founding of a Republic (2009) and The Founding of a Party (2011). Both were (officially) hits. But I said I would stop talking about politics, so I'll leave it at that.I've seen it riding a bike past it, but would they watch a movie about their glorious leader?
-
Funny how you quoted my post but not the previous ones, which were equally political (you even liked one). But I'll stop, don't worry.This is a film forum so anything about politics or sensitive topics please don't discuss at here!

Mao killed more and they have his picture in Tiananmen Square.I thought they that perhaps some people remember what the Japanese did during the war (in Shanghai for instance), but probably memories are short.The Japanese were very good in turning themselves into victims (Hiroshima,Nagasaki)

It's been number one for four weeks in Germany. It missed being number one for five by less than $3k.

I love Asian period pieces. Pity that none of these is probably going to reach my country.

France was a very important market for the first one, so it's good that it's doing well.

High School Musical 2 is higher than Avengers on Metacritic.I guess I shouldn't judge. I'm the one with the High School Musical 2 profile picture.
