Yes. I think Japan will be 125-130. Some people here are going for 150-175 but I don't see that happening. I will love to see that happen.

Make it 39.5-40, 9.25 and 4.5-4.6

I know Christmas but TFA is still biggest film in USA and many big markets.

Rest it now TB.

The markets which are in release now but weren't back then for Frozen, Japan, Korea, China, Australia, Mexico & Italy (just one weekend), etc grossed $463mn Approx after that weekend, leaving $410mn for markets in release or yet to release like Latin America & Scandinavian Europe. Out of this $100mn was from new markets. So it added $158mn after $27mn weekend. Removing the above markets, recent weekend was $16mn for Frozen 2, with same multiple it will add another $93mn in these markets. Say Latin America & Scandinavian Europe remain at $100-110mn. Further the 6 markets I removed above shall add $80mn to Frozen 2. Adding those $1,000million. Note: In my earlier $940mn I didn't know that whole of Latin America is pending besides Mexico, Chile & Columbia. So add $25mn to that for $965mn plus.

Let's go with 39.5, 9 and 4.5

I don't get the criticism behind that. Why can't we just accept that, that creature was a space cow. You can believe that force exists but not space cows. Don't tell me you don't drink other animal aka cow milk.

Its huge Blockbuster worldwide. Did great in Europe as well.

After SW Prequel Trilogy and Fantastic Beasts 2, definitely.

I mean ffs Dumbo did almost ₹10cr. Even Ford v Ferrari will clear ₹17cr. SW should be double that for scale.

Ford v Ferrari Week 1: ₹6.72cr Week 2: ₹3.26cr Week 3: ₹2.51cr Week 4: ₹1.55cr Week 5: ₹0.70cr Total: ₹14.74cr ($2.07mn) Good occupancy rate of 39% in last week. Shall keep earning money in limited release till January. ₹17cr ($2.5mn) full run. Knives Out Week 1: ₹2.87cr Week 2: ₹2.28cr Week 3: ₹1.24cr Total: ₹6.39cr ($0.9mn) Decent 36% occupancy rate. Shall end around ₹8-9cr depending on how many screens it retain till January.

$357,115,007 Damn. That weekend.

I guess 40% of Frozen 2 is very likely if WoM is okay as I guess PS will be around 30-35%. So $40mn 😛 But then I wonder if those are Xmas inflated

Not Anymore. GoTG 2 did $3mn in India (though it was blown by Baahubali 2). Rocket and Groot are big hits in India now. GoTG 3 easy peasy $15mn plus. If Thor cameo $20mn.

Under $16mn

So $185mn OS-China. I don't expect estimate to go up by much, if they do at all. 2.7x gives $500mn. $520mn including SK + China.

175,500,000

Woah. May be even UK > USA for Cats. SK looks great as well.

Korea pre-sales are really good. May be Korea beat USA.

Off-topic, but ever since Disney bought, Fox Star in India is doing pretty great. There was a time when Fox had like 21 disasters/flops out of 25, now they are doing pretty great.

One, how can Infinity War be made after 1st Avengers. Two, no matter when Infinity War was made, it would have done what it did. The film is great and reason for Endgame doing what it did.

Seems like ₹30cr Nett Sunday for Dabangg 3. ₹73.5cr Nett weekend.

Fantastic Beasts grossed $815mn JFYI which wasn't even direct prequel or anything. FB 2 was franchise killer and awful. A prequel of Voldemort origin will do $1.5 Billion.

From PS, looks like Jumanji 2 may have a sub 10% drop and Frozen 2 sub 5%, may be flat but being conservative says 12% and 5% drop for each respectively.

Well before MCU it was HP. HP averages $965mn per film, with first film in 2001 and last in 2011. Adjusted for inflation and market growth, that would be $1.5 Billion per film. So yeah, it has fandom.
