  2. What's the website where you can find the weekend numbers posted in local currency?
  3. Right, "disappointment" is a relative term that has all to do with pre-release expectations within which context "profitability" becomes a secondary consideration.
  4. Wonder why BOM hasn't had screen counts available the past few weeks?
  5. Hehe, I don't think it's hatred of conformity so much as general obliviousness. Our approach to foreign culture(s) is all too often "don't know, don't care."
  6. What do you see as being the key difference that has allowed the Pixar formula to enjoy great success in Japan? In a country famed for its animation industry, Pixar had been the reigning studio for animated imports for years.
  7. Pixar's track record in Japan appears to be fading as of late... or at least getting shown up by Disney. Which is unfortunate cuz that and the UK were really the only foreign markets that were consistently reliable for them.
  8. It's a shame Dory will miss $500m domestically... Oh well, at least $1B WW is secure.
  9. I know it's a long way off and market growth is an unknown variable, but is anybody willing to hazard a guess at Avatar 2's gross potential?
  10. Yeah... you'd think it would have fared better given Pixar's strong track record over there.
  11. Yes in the sense of a gory spectacle. It would have been crass.
  12. I'm glad they refrained from having a "money shot" of her burning. That would have been more than a little gratuitous.
  13. Still pales in comparison to the frustration of Disney suddenly cutting Frozen's run in Japan off at the knees.
