    And that’s a wrap. 
     

    Godzilla Minus One Toho Interna… $302,532 -13% +16% 2,051 $148 $56,418,793

     

    I can't believe they're pulling this from theaters when it's less than $1m away from the second highest-grossing foreign-language movie at the US box office: Genre Keyword: Foreign Language - Box Office Mojo.

     

    It would have surely crossed that today had they left it in cinemas!

    This movie felt like it had 5 prologues.

     

    Spoiler rant below:
     

    Spoiler


    First, we have the mid-20th century newsreel, which makes it look like it's setting it up to be placed in an alternate reality. Then we have the LA being nuked. Then we have the scene with John David Washington and Gemma Chan. And then we have 5 years later.

     

    It just felt like a massive info dump, like watching the third movie of a trilogy with the first two movies being summarised in the first 10-15 minutes!

     

    Spoiler

    It also felt like there were massive chunks of the middle of the movie just missing or scenes that should have been way longer, shown almost like they were a montage. The scene where Washington finds the robot copies of Gemma Chan, for example, was less than a minute, and it felt so out of place because it's Washington and the kid shown on a random train. It really felt like it was part of a much longer sequence that was cut.

     

    Spoiler

    Also, the random Japanese translations of whenever there was English text onscreen (including the end credits) felt really out of place. And I honestly cringed at the naming of the unimaginative name of the country most of this movie takes place in - "The Republic Of New Asia". Like, seriously? You couldn't think of anything more original than that?

    it also has the most bottom rankings out of any film in the entire countdown, making it's placement a bit confusing. but it was listed on almost every list 33. and had a few mid-rankings. I guess next time I will stress if you don't like it don't list.

     

    You seem to have some personal vendetta against this movie. I guess next time I shall vote it number 1 just to spite you.

    I have some question about Japanese language,I heard ‘Brother’ and ‘Sister’ pronounce is really similar in Japan, I want to know is there some different between these two word?I re-listened again and agin found “brother” is like “Ni Song”,”Sister” like “Nie Song” right?

     

    Older brother is 兄(ani)/お兄さん(oniisan). Younger brother is 弟(otouto). Older sister is 姉(ane)/お姉さん(oneesan). Younger sister is 妹(imouto).

    Wednesday and Thursday figures are rolled into the weekend in certain overseas markets where the box office "weekend" is defined as Thu-Sun or Wed-Sun.

     

    The international weekend gross of $88.6m isn't a Fri-Sun gross, it's a sum of the "weekend" grosses in each overseas market, so that's Fri-Sun in some markets, but Thu-Sun or Wed-Sun in some others.

     

    Curious if its Sat-Sun for Japan.

    You ever heard of this tiny lil film called titanic?

     

    Titanic opened in less than 3,000 cinemas. Though to be fair, at the time not many movies opened in 3,000+ cinemas. The Ring (2002) opened with $15m, then went on to have 18.4m, 18.1m, and 15.5m second, third, and fourth weekends. However, just like Titanic, it opened in less than 3,000 cinemas.

    Comping the OW/Oweek to IW and Engame gets you to about ~$295 OW for TFA, and presumably the absence of holiday pushes some more business into that first week, so $300M+
     

    But then you lose the holiday boon and face stronger competition in May/Jun/Jul than Dec/Jan/Feb, so a lower total and higher OW/Oweek and a much lower multiplier

     

    TFA would have opened on a Memorial Day Weekend, though, so probably could have cleared $400m in its first 4 days.
