I wonder where the extra $50m in T2's OS gross came in (BOM has it listed as $315m). Between Ghost, PW, and The Bodyguard, adult women were really fueling OS grosses around that time.

Nice number. -
Doubles Dory's record.

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
Jiffy replied to FantasticBeasts's topic in Classic Box Office Runs
More impressive than TFA but definitely not Avatar... I'm surprised FOTR actually edged it out in admissions. -
Top 10 grossing films per country (Excluding US/Canada)
Jiffy replied to baumer's topic in International Box Office
Should Titanic be around $188m with both releases combined? -
Yeah, that's why I've been curious.

Does anybody have a breakdown for The Lion King's estimated (USD) gross in each European market? -
I had no clue it was the highest-grossing film overseas at the time until someone pointed that out to me a few years ago. Really crazy to realize Cameron's international dominance dates back that far and was able to drive an R-rated movie to #1.

How the fuck is that Minions figure accurate? It's market grosses do not look THAT impressive. -

The latter (lower admissions per capita) was my question. -

Why is Germany weaker on a per capita basis as compared to the other major European markets like UK and France? -
The Boss Baby OS thread - 16m OS so far

Why the strong Russia opening? -
La La Land OS Thread - 288.1M OS - 439M WW
Jiffy replied to PanaMovie's topic in International Box Office
Wonder where it found the extra ~$5m OS all of the sudden. -
This being a massive success has always made total sense to me - it's just a total slam-dunk concept that's rife for comedy. I remember seeing the (hilarious) ad campaign and thinking it was going to be big (but not THAT big). The movie itself still holds up on repeat viewing even 20 years later.

Thanks! I thought Titanic had grossed over $70,000,000 in USD back in 1998? Was that somehow not enough to qualify for this list or is there a cut-off?

Anyone have a list of all-time highest grossing films in R$?

THE LEGO BATMAN MOVIE | 136.2 M overseas ● 312.0 M worldwide
Jiffy replied to kayumanggi's topic in International Box Office
A bit anemic. -
Yeah, those are valid points to consider, and I'd never presume to understate how huge Batman's opening was at the time. I was moreso referring to the percentage increase from record-holder to record-holder over the past few decades: 2015 The Force Awakens $247,966,675 +18.8% 2015 Jurassic World $208,806,270 +0.7% 2012 The Avengers $207,438,708 +22.6% 2011 Deathly Hallows - Part 2 $169,189,427 +6.8% 2008 The Dark Knight $158,411,483 +4.8% 2007 Spider-Man 3 $151,116,516 +11.4% 2006 Dead Man’s Chest $135,634,554 +18.1% 2002 Spider-Man $114,844,116 +27.2% 2001 Harry Potter $90,294,621 +25.2% 1997 The Lost World $72,132,785 +36.7% 1995 Batman Forever $52,784,433 +12.2% 1993 Jurassic Park $47,026,828 +2.9% 1992 Batman Returns $45,687,711 +12.8% 1989 Batman $40,489,746 +37.4% 1989 Ghostbusters II $29,472,894 +0.4% 1989 The Last Crusade $29,355,021 +11.4% 1987 Beverly Hills Cop II $26,348,555 +4.0% 1984 The Temple of Doom $25,337,110 +10.1% 1983 Return of the Jedi $23,019,618 +60.4% 1982 Star Trek II $14,347,221 +1.7% 1981 Superman II $14,100,523 +18.2% 1979 Star Trek $11,926,421 +15.1% 1978 Superman (Week 3) $10,363,384 +0.9% 1978 Every Which Way But Loose $10,272,294 +1.0% 1978 Star Wars (Re-Issue) $10,166,336 +3.0% 1978 Jaws 2 $9,866,023 +37.1% 1977 Star Wars (Week 11) $7,195,573 +1.9% 1975 Jaws $7,061,513 -- Or if you'd like to include preview amounts: 2015 The Force Awakens $247,966,675 +18.8% 2015 Jurassic World $208,806,270 +0.7% 2012 The Avengers $207,438,708 +22.6% 2011 Deathly Hallows - Part 2 $169,189,427 +6.8% 2008 The Dark Knight $158,411,483 +4.8% 2007 Spider-Man 3 $151,116,516 +11.4% 2006 Dead Man’s Chest $135,634,554 +18.1% 2002 Spider-Man $114,844,116 +27.2% 2001 Harry Potter $90,294,621 +20.9% 1997 The Lost World $74,699,969 +41.5% 1995 Batman Forever $52,784,433 +12.2% 1993 Jurassic Park $50,159,460 +5.1% 1992 Batman Returns $47,720,711 +11.7% 1989 Batman $42,705,884 +44.9% 1989 Ghostbusters II $29,472,894 +0.4% 1989 The Last Crusade $29,355,021 +11.4% 1987 Beverly Hills Cop II $26,348,555 +4.0% 1984 The Temple of Doom $25,337,110 +10.1% 1983 Return of the Jedi $23,019,618 +60.4% 1982 Star Trek II $14,347,221 +1.7% 1981 Superman II $14,100,523 +18.2% 1979 Star Trek $11,926,421 +15.1% 1978 Superman (Week 3) $10,363,384 +0.9% 1978 Every Which Way But Loose $10,272,294 +1.0% 1978 Star Wars (Re-Issue) $10,166,336 +3.0% 1978 Jaws 2 $9,866,023 +37.1% 1977 Star Wars (Week 11) $7,195,573 +1.9% 1975 Jaws $7,061,513 -- In either case, ROTJ broke the previous record by what is (by far) the largest margin of any film dating back since 1975. Its theater count would be equivalent to ~2,500 in today's climate, which is still fairly wide despite not reaching full saturation.
