    South Korea youth has extremely polarized views regarding feminism and gender relations.  If you look at the exit polls of the last presidential election you will see a ridiculous gender gap between the liberal and conservative candidate among 18-29 years old. That could be poisoning the well. 

     

    Yeah I've read the same, and it's kinda absurd since South Korea is already one of the developed countries where women have it worse in comparison to men

    Isn't the average ticket price too low?

     

    No this seem the same price as usual

     Never saw such crowd in July for a "new" movie (not a saga like HP) with this weather (more than 40°C in 3/4 of the country). 
    Everyone is at the beach here, even in the evening/night. Summer never existed here for that reason, so it's unbelievable. The only movie I remember performed very very well in the summer was Suicide Squad in 2016. 

     

    Yeah and I'm curious to see today's results instead, considering that at least here in Lombardy there was some disastrous wind and rain wich caused some damage (and, among other things, my WiFi is still not working...)

    Anyways i'm seeing in my country (Italy) where the movie is strong Is strong from 3 pm to 10.50 pm.

     

    Maybe here where the public doesn't make any attention to what pg a movie has (is basically a non factor in the discourse) and in general people are less aware of Who Greta gerwig is, is also playing good with families in the early afternoon, and then mature audience are going until late night showings. Both are near to sold out. 

     

    Yeah between the biggest markets we probably have one of the most uninformed public about cinema and movies, just to give one of the many examples I remember that when I saw The Batman in theater there were several parents with children under 10

     

    Because in the end most of the casual public goes without seeing reviews, age ratings and in many cases not even the trailer...

  4. WW gross of Mission Impossible movies without China


    1) Mission Impossible - 452M (40% Domestic) 


    2) Mission Impossible II - 543M (40% Domestic) 


    3) Mission Impossible III - 388M (34% Domestic) 


    4) MI: Ghost Protocol - 594M (35% Domestic)


    5) MI: Rogue Nation - 546M (36% Domestic)


    6) MI: Fallout - 610M (36% Domestic)

     

    Dead Reckoning should outgross all of them, I think at least 650M in these markets plus what it will make in China this time

    MI7's 5-day total was 1.689M euros, down quite a bit from Fallout's 2.28M.

     

    Indy dropped over 50%, about 480k thu-sun. Elemental much better hold at -29%, 363k thu-sun.

     

    Barbie comes out on thursday and presales around me have picked up a ton and look great now. Will start to see spillover to friday soon. Unfortunately no Oppenheimer because italian distributors just love raining down on people's parades.

     

    This is very disappointing, I was expecting at least 2M euros and at this point it will probably gross less than Fallout

     

    In other news the re-release of the first Lord of The Rings made 150k euros and the other two will be in the upcoming weeks

    Well Bond does pretty good. I always found almost sold out movie theaters during the OW for a bond film. Bond gets also way more media coverage over the tv than M:I.

     

    Plus, this season of the year people just want to leave the city for the weekend.

     

    Yeah usually it does better, but I think No Time to Die failing to reach 10M euros remain one of the biggest disappointing in our recent box office history

    What’s a bit disappointing here is to see that Italy, while landing a No. 1 bow, came in with just $1.9M. The market is down overall versus pre-pandemic and is traditionally lamented as an impossible proposition to program during the summer. However, there’s a renewed effort by the government and the studios to encourage moviegoing in the season. Maybe it’s partly down to the searing temperatures in southern Europe this week, but it’s a bit of a shame given how much of Dead Reckoning was shot in both Rome and Venice which might have been expected to lend a sort of hometown pride (look at what Transformers: Rise of the Beasts has done in Peru off shooting locally – the movie is simply massive there, now at $14.2M through the current frame).

    Yet, Italy didn't seem to generate high BO for MI7 either. The OW there is looking <$2m. Remind me of JW4, despite heavily featuring Paris, there isn't much bump to their BO.

     

    Hollywood should start exploring shooting on location in some of the less common countries, where people would actually respond and excited to see their place to appear on big screen. See how Transformer: ROTB actually blow up in Peru because the movie was partially shot there.  

     

    Yeah after this opening weekend we aren't even in the top 15 markets for the movie, and considering our notorius legs we might finish outside the top 20

     

    Maybe one of the problems could be that this kind of movies (James Bond, Mission Impossible, John Wick...) are often available and broadcasted on Sky, Amazon Prime or various tv channels so they are almost considered TV movies as strange as it may seem

     

    In fact I was very surprised when my mother asked me to go see it at the cinema as soon as possible, she really likes the saga but the only one she saw in theaters was the first  😄

    Yes, but that's without China and a few other markets I believe, which didn't open for another few weeks. According to Deadline:

     

     

    So add in $61.2M domestic opening and Fallout WW opening in all markets was $247.8M

     

    Ah, in that case they are very close despite Usa having a couple of days more in the opening weekend, I hope it will still reach 800M in one way or another

  10. After this summer re-release Ponyo joined the list of the highest grossing anime movies, and in the next weeks The Wind rises will probably gain a position:

     

    1) Captain Harlock - 5.1 million

    2) Pokemon 1 - 4.7 million (officially, in reality over 9 million)

    3) Pokemon 2 - 3.1 million (in reality over 6 million)

    4) Stand By Me Doraemon - 2.6 million

    5) Dragon Ball Super: Broly - 2.5 million

    6) Spirited Away - 1.5 million

    7) Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero - 1.4 million

    8)Doraemon Movie n. 34 - 1.3 million

    9) Doraemon Movie n. 35 - 1.2 million

    10) Jujutsu Kaisen 0 - 1.1 million 

    11) Howl Moving Castle - 1 million

    12) The Wind Rises - 1 million

    13) One Piece Red - 1 million

    14) Ponyo - 980k

    15) Dragon Ball Z: The Battle of the Gods - 960k (two days release)

  11. I'm a big fan of Spy x Family (and probably also one of the first ones, I started reading it on its first day on MangaPlus), but there is something that doesn't totally convince me in the anime adaption

     

    Maybe it's the pacing that isn't fast enough or Anya's iconic faces don't look as good as in the manga, but I don't know if anyone else has this feeling
