I think there’s still statistically a ceiling, but we probably need to revisit that $250 mm number. I remember that number being thrown around as the max since like HP7 like 7 years ago. With population growth, expansion of large / premium format experiences, and also just inflation (an IMAX 2D ticket is $21
where I live now compared with $16 or $18 a couple of years ago and regular tickets are now $14 up from $11).
So, the ceiling probably still exists it’s just not $250 mm. Probably like $300 or $325 or something.
most definitely, there has to be one, but the way some people here were so self-confident, so self-righteous about the exact threshold for the ceilings (the Saturday one in particular) it became so annoying I'm just glad the numbers proved them wrong.
All in all the final number for the OW I think will be 262-263 which shows the people in the 300 club were not that far fetched.

ah, so good to see all them "statistically, there's a ceiling, impossible" arguments finally put to rest

No one here is a die-hard furry. I just don't see how furry appeal means that the Japanese general audience will love Zootopia.
and I feel my phrase is self-explanatory.

I don't see how that's connected.
that's all I have to say on the matter. I'm not gonna delve into a polarizing debate.

this movie caters to the furry fandom, i strongly believe this will make over 100 mil $ in Japan.

come on 31 mill for JW !
-
still tracking ahead of the Avengers on weekdays, nice
sticking to my 31-35 million prediction for the weekend
-
next weekend will be in between 31-35 million
-
would ya look at that, JW has a weekend in between 50-55$ mill

To be fair, kitik is right.
Avengers came out at a completely different time of year. Comparing a Wednesday drop in May to a Wednesday drop in June when school is out, is kind of worthless. Just saying.
Yet i used the avengers comparison to predict a 50-55 million third weekend. Hardly worthless.
Anyone who paid attention from the beginning could tell this movie is not going to follow standard BO guidelines.
-
what a truly awful and worthless comparison
indeed...

I bet someone is reconsidering their knowledge on box office right now.

No offense but JW has constantly taken a big dump on BO guidelines. I stick to what I've seen as being a valid comparison. TA run. 50 + mill weekend is still happening. Maybe even 55+ mill
hmm no offense but you don't understand the box office bro
the increase in MAY is different from the increase in late JUNE
in may movies increase +100% from THUR to friday in June barely 60 70%

man, I get grouchy at night sometimes
Please, expand
-
uhm, what is wrong with you people?
you keep predicting doom and gloom and keep overlooking the most similiar run to JW, namely TA.
TA made only 6,3 million on its second wednesday and still made 55 on its third weekend, jeez

I'm confused. The movie just wiped the floor with the Avenger's not only weekend number but ALSO with its monday and tuesday (by a huge margin), why are some people still throwing aroud numbers as tame as 530 DOM total?
I'm pretty sure at this point that this movie will make at least 600kk

yes but pacrim was a disappointment in Dom and therefore easy to beat.
TLS wad a bit of a feat for Japan to beat DOM but it was a modest hit not a blockbuster TF$ was big, but underperformed for the franchise. This will however be the first over performing dom blockbuster to get beat.
ok, i see your point now

TF4 is much bigger blockbuster in terms of gross, of course. The Last Samurai is much smaller movie, even R rated.
I didnt want to compare those movies, i meant that last samurai was first propper expensive movie to make more in one single country than it made in US. by expensive i meant that it was not small indie or art movie, which only makes few milions in US so it is not hard to beat it outside US.
on the other hand, TF4 made about 250M in US, which is a lot. but still, for such a movie it was not satisfactory. FF7 US gross will be much bigger than expected. even so, chinese gross will be bigger. this is the first time when this happens in china. it happened only once before, in japan 12 years ago with last samurai.
I'm pretty sure this has alreasy happened in China with Pacific Rim

The question is, will BOM update their international section someday? Its been more than 3 months now....its annoying.
word :/
-
is there any aggregated list of AS's totals in each foreign market so far?
-
Surprised that RM is getting more shows than BB. thought it would have been the other way around.
Unbroken is getting too many shows .......
It's a movie where the japanese are the bad guys
-
I don't get it. Craziest thing is this will not be replicated OS. It will be a US box office phenomenon.
who knows, maybe it will blow up OS as well
It already outgrossed The Hobbit III in Italy. Im still hopeful
-
is it insane that Im hoping American Sniper will save us from having T4 as the no 1 movie of 2014?
its Italian run gives me hope
where I live now compared with $16 or $18 a couple of years ago and regular tickets are now $14 up from $11).

one camp was throwing around wishful thinking predictions while the other camp was superciliously preaching so called facts;
I think it's pretty clear who got hit harder with the actual numbers;
