  1. I once got a ban after I started a thread about this very topic (though I did use some strong language). I think Western Europe has also caught on, but Asia and South America are getting worse. Despite their economic rise, they are still provincial as hell culturally.
  2. Thought there's no data, I think Titanic is well a head of Avatar in terms of admissions.
  3. How big is Titanic's lead in admissions? Would any film be able to maybe pass it with in the next several years?
  4. What's with all thses crazy predictions following an average trailer? This won't come close to Gravity OS total and MJ1 will eat it up in with the younger crowd.
  5. It's erroneous to equate the stand-alone Wolverine movies with the main X-Men films. The Wolverine movies are stright up action movies with little to 0 connection to the X-Men universe.
  6. I'm assuming MJ 1 and 2 are in 3D. If not, I think MJ2 would do about 510m.
  7. I wonder what the China gross would be if Chines people knew what Tom Clancy's view about them?
  8. Calling it now; MJ2 will have over 600m OS.
  9. As much as Viacom wants it to be differently, Star Trek is a TV property first and foremost. And as a TV property it is very popular world wide.
  10. About a third of SR budget was sunk costs from the previous 10 years of WB trying to make a Superman film (Nic Cage's 20m play-or-play deal from 1998 is factored in for example).
  11. It looks like this is gonna be the case. I'm upgrading my prediction for Asia from Crazy to Insane numbers, but I'm backtracking a bit on Europe.
  12. This is like a vintage BOM big come-down thread thread. Of course almost everyone here put their blinders on and over-predicted the hell out of this movie, while completely ignoring the Spider-Man 1/Spider-Man 2 and the TDK/TDKR corollaries.
  13. You people are either ignorant, or straight up dumbasses. Lion King? Batman? Star Wars? By you're logic Madonna and Prince are bigger than Elvis and The Beatles. Other have mentioned GWTW, The Golden Age epics (Ben Hur, Dr. Zhivago, etc.), Sound of Music, but no one has mentioned the 2 most obvious choices; Charlie Chaplin and Disney.
  14. If the movie is in the same spirit as the concept teaser from Comic-Con, I believe it would do crazy business not only in Asia, but also in Europe.
  15. As an Israeli, I'm ashamed that The Dictator and Ted performed that well in Israel.
  16. The all time list is mostly made up from Israeli movies from the 60s and 70s. Titanic and Avatar are probably the only foriegn films in the top 10.
  17. Django is a Tarantino film first and foremost. True Grit was a remake of a well known western, was released in December, had tons of Oscar buzz, was released in the Bermuda triangle that was the fall/winter of 2010 (where a movie like Black Swan made over 100m) and wasn't a complete crap-fest like TLR is. And it still only made 80m OS.
