JAPAN BOX OFFICE | Demon Slayer breaks all time record for OW
KP1025 replied to Corpse's topic in International Box Office
Beauty and the Beast is now locked to cross Alice in Wonderland as the highest grossing live-action Disney film. It is also very likely to surpass The Wind Rises (¥12.02 billion) to become the 18th highest grossing movie in Japan.- 24,124 replies

Presales Tracking Thread(Maoyan, Taopiaopiao etc)
KP1025 replied to Olive's topic in China At The Box Office
I don't think Cars or Cars 2 had a China release, so I'm interested how Cars 3 will perform. It's an animation, but the subject material (sports cars, racing, etc) seems like it will resonate with Chinese audiences much more than DM3. Could it break Pixar's string of underperformances? -
CARS III | 231.0 M overseas ● 383.9 M worldwide
KP1025 replied to kayumanggi's topic in International Box Office
I also can't see much higher than $400 million OS for Cars 3, which is around what Moana made. Whether or not it will be released in China is still up in the air (where it could earn a potential $50+ million). Cars 3 will also face huge competition from DM3, which will affect its legs. -
JAPAN BOX OFFICE | Demon Slayer breaks all time record for OW
KP1025 replied to Corpse's topic in International Box Office
Corpse says BatB will lose majority of its theaters/screens when Pirates 5 releases (apparently a Disney tradition to move screens to its biggest opener). Might be out of theaters a few weeks later (Alice left theaters completely after 12 weeks). Beating Alice (11.8B) looks locked though thanks to the holds these past few weeks.- 24,124 replies

It basically means a film becomes a cultural phenomenon, widely embraced by the general public (including those that rarely go to theaters) on a level way beyond just a big blockbuster.

I'm still not convinced Avatar 2 will drop domestically like so many believe, especially if it is a visual spectacle unlike anything we've ever seen. I think the curiosity factor will be there regardless of people's feelings towards the original film.

DEADPOOL II | 461.2 M overseas ● 785.8 M worldwide
KP1025 replied to kayumanggi's topic in International Box Office
I wonder if this will get a China release this time. Otherwise, I think $400 million OS. It's coming in-between two major superhero movies just before and after it, which will probably take away demand from all but the hardcore CBM fans. Han Solo and Jurassic World 2 will further suck away any hype for the film. I think Deadpool 2 will suffer the worst from the crowded release schedule as both initial demand and legs will be affected. -
I highly doubt this. Frozen was and still is a cultural phenomenon, and such a drop would be unprecedented. It should easily open over $100 million, and holiday legs will carry it well over $400 million. WW, it might not match the original but should still pass $1 billion with ease thanks to Japan.

Top 10 of 2018 predictions: From JAN 1st 2018 to DEC 31st 2018
KP1025 replied to YM!'s topic in Box Office Discussion
And like Avatar, TS3 was also released during a period of extremely favorable exchange rates. Same admissions as TS3 and TS4 still would not cross $1 billion today. True there's inflation in developing markets to account for, but it's not enough to overcome that and the lower 3D share. Also worth mentioning Pixar is a weakening brand in Japan, TS3's largest OS market. Finding Dory dropped almost 40% from Finding Nemo in yen despite being a well-received/anticipated sequel to the beloved original. Accounting for the difference in exchange rates, TS4 could drop in USD 55% from TS3 in Japan alone. -
Saban's Power Rangers | March 24, 2017 | Teaser Trailer on Page 47
KP1025 replied to lilmac's topic in Box Office Discussion
It still has Japan left in July, but I doubt it makes more than $10 million there (about the same as Ghost in the Shell). -

Disney's latest live-action iteration became the 31st film to ever exceed ¥10 billion uber-blockbuster milestone earlier this week, and begins its journey of challenging Alice in Wonderland (¥11.80 billion) to become Disney's highest-grossing live-action film in the market. It's tracking just 3.1% behind Alice after seven weeks now, following a very similar, but higher (by 1.9%), seventh weekend gross so it's going to be close. >Logan had a pretty disappointing debut in the market, selling 113,600 admissions over the weekend frame across 728 screens. Its debut failed to match the opening weekend of its character predecessors, coming in 12% behind The Wolverine and 11% behind X-Men: Origins It's probably not going to reach the ¥1 billion ($10 million) milestone, and while that mark has become very challenging for the general X-Men franchise recently, it's still disappointing. >Flower and Sword comes in with the typically poor/mediocre debut for this time of year, selling 107,095 admissions over the weekend on 354 screens. Toei has to be somewhat satisfied considering their very poor track record with live-action films. The 16th-century period film based on the novel "Hana Ikusa" by Tadashi Onitsuka is directed by Tetsuo Shinoharad. >Detective Conan: Crimson Love Letter became the highest-grossing film in the franchise two weeks ago, and it hit another milestone this weekend by becoming the first film in the series to exceed 5 million admissions, selling 5,087,482 admissions now after eight weeks in release. Incredibly impressive, and it's almost assured to surpass Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them's admissions (5.21 million) to become the second most-attended film of the year so far.- 24,124 replies

This is the highest quality I can find, but unfortunately it is only a very short preview.

JAPAN BOX OFFICE | Demon Slayer breaks all time record for OW
KP1025 replied to Corpse's topic in International Box Office
BatB should easily beat AiW's next two weekends, where it dropped over 35% and 47% respectively. AiW made another ¥1.1 billion after its 7th weekend, but it had quite bad holds that point forward. BatB should hold much better until Pirates 5 is released and takes away most of its screens.- 24,124 replies

I doubt Deadpool and Suicide Squad would have done much more than $100 million in China. Most likely they would have performed similarly to Logan ($106 million) or Batman vs Superman ($96 million). Only the presence of the Avengers can push a CBM above $150 million these days in China. World of Warcraft had a very large and active player base in China, so it was no surprise that it earned what it did. Actually, the Warcraft film performed below expectations in the China forum as many were predicting over $300 million before release.

GODZILLA vs. KONG | March 31 2021 | Adam Wingard to direct
KP1025 replied to grim22's topic in Box Office Discussion
Agreed. It's probably my favorite kaiju. -
It goes to show how big the exchange rate disparity POTC5 has versus the previous film. Earning the same amount in yen would translate to only $80 million now. 3D was still a much bigger deal in Japan in 2011, so it's guaranteed to drop in local currency even if admissions are around the same. I hope it can still earn around Fantastic Beasts numbers in Japan.
