VARIETY Christopher Nolan’s “Dunkirk” landed at the Japanese box office in the number one slot. With Warner distributing on 444 screens, the WWII epic earned $2.98 million on 220,000 admissions for the Sept. 9-10 weekend. This was 68% better than the opening frame for the 2014 Nolan film “Interstellar,” which finished with $11.5 million in Japan. “Dunkirk” is expected to end its run near the $20 million mark. Opening at number two was the Hirokazu Kore-eda legal drama “The Third Murder.” Co-released by Toho and Gaga on 314 screens, the film made $2.14 million. This was about 75% of the first weekend score of Koree-eda’s family drama “Like Father, Like Son,” which earned a total of $29 million in 2013. Despite leaving the Venice film festival without a prize, the film is expected to finish around the $15 million mark. Meanwhile, the Masato Harada samurai war epic “Sekigahara” slipped from the number two to number three slot, while driving its cumulative total to $13.7 million. In fourth, “Despicable Me 3” cemented its position as the top film of the Japanese summer with a total of $62.5 million on for distributor Toho-Towa.

DM3 now in Japan: $61.9m. Will end with $64-65m. Highest grossing animated film of the year (surpassing Conan) and 3rd best Hollywood film of the year there after Beauty and Fantastic Beasts (may cross that one which stands at $64m). DM3 already made 1.5x Minions in Japan and more than Zootopia and may cross Dory too (may have crossed it) POTC now in Japan around $60.5. Will end at $61m almost.

Saw this at Venice and LOVED IT. Will do massive box office imo

Interesting fact before I get my analysis up: Fast and Furious 8: OS - China: 616m DM3: OS - China: 600m so far and counting. May beat FF8 OS-C!

Cool, will try to watch it. I recently watched an amazing Brazilian film in Cannes last year - it's called ACQUARIUS Fascinating film but not too commercial. Haven't seen any of the top 20 films on the list

@CarlangonzDo we know how much DM3 ended its run in Mexico with? Is it $34.8M USD or more? Thanks!

DM3 is now at 1.008 Billion: Total Lifetime Grosses Domestic: $259,981,415 25.8% + Foreign: $748,307,289 74.2% = Worldwide: $1,008,288,704

Actuals are in and DM3 increased by 2 million!! Total Lifetime Grosses Domestic: $259,981,415 25.8% + Foreign: $748,307,289 74.2% = Worldwide: $1,008,288,704 I'll post my weekly analysis tomorrow.

This is from last week. Both DM3 and Valerian should be more than that by Sunday. DM3 crossed 40.5. Valerian crossed 36m

DM3 has officially crossed $40.5 million in France – a fantastic result! It’s now at 91% of what Minions did and may even match it in USD when all is said and done. Illumination couldn’t have hoped for a better result.

DM3 reaches £46.2m in the UK! Also for Universal, Despicable Me 3 dropped a slim 27% on its way to a $500,000 (£378,927) 11thweekend for $60.9m (£46.2m) so far, while Girls Trip has reached $11.4m (£8.66m) after seven weeks in play. https://www.screendaily.com/news/uk-box-office-it-scores-biggest-ever-horror-debut/5122256.article

The German box office thread is one of the best in the international forum. It is consistently updated and managed. Well done guys! Am thinking of opening a thread for the Switzerland box office btw, it's a good market that aligns with France and Germany in many cases. BOM updates it weekly so numbers will be available. Just hope to find time to maintain it. Hopefully soon.

Sunday numbers: big Sunday for Despicable Me 3 with 1.2m euro, -3% from last Sunday. Dunkirk also with a great Sunday hold from last Sunday. DM3 is now at 14.86m euro ($17.8m) and should pass Finding Dory sometime this week.

Yay! @Asyulus @FantasticBeasts Also a record: DM3 is now the first and only animated film to gross less than $300 million domestically and still hit $1 billion worldwide. Just goes to show how huge its OS run was.

Cool!

I would say 60+

Not only DOM is huge, UK is also massive:
