Basically, the final few tickets got it past ¥7.6 billion. Edit: This is the list: http://www.kogyotsushin.com/archives/alltime/

http://mimorin2014.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-12476.html Finding Dory is breaking out in a remarkable way. Right now, the sampled sales are 143,164 at 1400 hours, a 24% increase from the same time yesterday. All of the other movies are mostly flat. This was yesterday, for the record: http://mimorin2014.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-12459.html

Great news! I honestly wouldn't have guessed, mainly because it's not in the top 10 at the moment, and I'm not interested in horror movies in general.

Not sure exactly what you're talking about.

Obviously, I don't expect that. But who's to say that a smashing success for Sausage Party might make Disney or Pixar consider "harder" PGs or even PG-13. Or just make a few movies simply without children in mind.

Probably no.

I take back everything negative I've said about this movie. I want it to make $250m dom and $200m os. Maybe then Pixar and WDAS will be emboldened to make movies that venture further from established tropes.

Other guy pointed out One Piece Gold. It's going to be in a fuck ton of theaters, and it's most likely going to take away Finding Dory's biggest screens. It won't kill Dory's run, but it will be a little less lucrative.

Might see this next week, so I'm bumping this thread.

Wrong year, maybe.

Corpse sez:

But don't you feel all edgy when you post pictures of a buttery, chocolaty confection whenever numbers are announced?

Always double check Mojo's international numbers.

It's not quite the gigantic smash hit I anticipated, though. http://mimorin2014.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-12474.html

Yeah, those people who live in Alabama aren't going to the movies because of the failed coup in Turkey.

I guess that's the exception. Titanic would be on the list if we knew its multiplier.

No, I'm actually 22. Young adult, as it were.

I didn't want to be a dork and ask if it was true, so thanks for that.

Corpse sez:

Can someone tell me this story? I've heard about it before.

Nah, It's clearly Spirited Away.

That is the weirdest combination ever.
