    Wow, impressive result for Minions. Does anyone knows how many admissions Titanic had in Mexico? Cause it had 16 million in Brazil and generally speaking, Mexico tends to surpass Brazilian numbers.

    I come here to look for information on Brazil's box office and what I find? Unsolicited political opinions from the extreme right-wing. Can you guys stop derailing the topic? It's not only depressing it paints a terrible picture of my country.

    ^ There'll be a Wolf Children-esque movie though. Mamoru Hosoda's new movie, The Boy and the Beast, opens in July.

    Lots of young women across Japan buying advance tickets for the Cinderella movie. Apparently, you get some cutesy charm when you book early.

    Really? It was absolutely everywhere here in Brazil.

    I truly expect a really frontloaded result for Youkai Watch. It has a built-in fanbase and it's been promoted for months now so obviously everyone is going to see it asap. It'll do lots of money but I think huge legs are veeeeeery unlikely, especially cause there'll be virtually no word of mouth for this movie since it's just basically a longer episode of the TV show everyone in Japan already knows. What? Mangas have been popular for like a century and there are several Japanese live-action movies that were huge hits in the last few years: Eien no Zero; Thermae Romae; Hot Road; the Umizaru franchise; Like Father, Like Son; the Rurouni Kenshin movies..... I mean, several of those were based in mangas but they were still live-action movies.

    Doesn't Japan theaters have allocated seats? Why those lines are so huge?

    Because kids like it? It's like the Pokemon phenomenon in the late 90s.

    I think Ted 2 will do pretty well. The marketing for the first movie was perfect and it's still everywhere. But then, Japanese people move on from fads really fast so who knows...

    Very happy for "Gone Girl". Superb movie. Although, honestly, why the hell did it open on a much bigger number of screens than "Ao Haru Ride"? Did anyone really thought it had any chance of having a superior performance? "Ao Haru Ride" opens a bit better than "Kimi ni Todoke" movie (Y233.9 in 2010) which was the last shoujo manga with this type of huge mainstream success to be adapted as a movie (well, there's been Hot Road earlier this year but this is based on an 80s manga, not something from this generation). Hope it has better legs than the former though.

    I love THG franchise but given it had the biggest number of screens in Brazil's history, the opening results are a little "meh".... It's a shame it never exploded like the Twilight movie saga did (even though THG is faaaaar superior), especially considering all the special treatment it got (the last movie opening a week earlier than the rest of the world here, the huge number of screens for this movie, etc). That said, it's still doing very well, of course.

    According to the Japanese media, the Youkai Watch movie, which opens at the end of the month and is based on the popular children's anime, has surpassed 1 million tickets in advance sales, meaning it is the best advance sales in Toho's history. Toho is the biggest distributor in Japan. http://www.nikkei.com/article/DGXLASFK14H1H_U4A211C1000000/ Promotion has been going on for months now and the Osaka loop line trains are currently wrapped with the show's characters http://news.mynavi.jp/news/2014/12/13/015/. No doubt it'll have a huge opening and, with the huge success of the Doraemon movie, it'll probably be the best year for non-Ghibli/Disney animations in history (and the best year for animations too, right? Given the record-shattering Frozen numbers).

    Matsu Takako was not in Hero 2 the TV show but she will be in the second movie And AJG, I don't care about Naruto but you should be careful about spoilers anyway.

    Oooh, Cinderella and Parasyte - Part 2 opening on the same day. It'll be embarrassing if the Toho movie opens at #2 (which is a strong possibility). And this list reminded me there's Yokai Watch Movie on Dec 20th. Definitely will be big.

    I heard the word of mouth from this new Naruto movie is terrible which surely can't mean very good things for the box office results in the long run but who knows... In any case, there will be a sequel out in August next year.
