the bright side: for the moment it is very simple to calculate / convert

I am also wondering.

Can't imagine Peter Jackson hired a Arrgh, how did you get the hiding lease, so I can edit this? Ha, found it, used the wrong brackets. I love FAQ

The ticket numbers for Germany got updated again: the 'bets' at InsideKino were at ~ 250T at first the box office's articles anounced result trend was 350 Thousend, then they posted 375T, now they tell it was 405T ! I was a bit confused why the money result they announced is as high as $5.4 Million even with it's 3D ticket prices. Not bad for a rather non-standard non-franchise genre movie with a FSK16 label.

Agreed , but the Necromancer 'character' isn't really described (not shown his POV, I feel his part is rather done by telling the results of his orders) within LotR, so even as he stays as the leader of the 'bad' ones, he isn't IMHO a 'real' main character like e.g. Gandalf. Curious if the difference between the cinema versions and the DVD/Blu-Ray extended version will be as big as they are for the 3 LotR movies.

I haven't read the complete thread, but feel a bit confused about the 'tone' of a few posts here. I do not know if the following is typical only for my RL circle of friends or universality (I might be a bit too old to understand the majority of today’s movie goers): Nearly no one I know did read 'The Hobbit' before having seen the LotR movies. Most didn't read it even after seeing them as especially the 1st half of FotR (= Hobbit world centered) felt a bit 'lalala' => wasn’t their’s and my favorite part of the movie series (too 'sweet'/stoned/???). The ones who had read it beforehand had read it in their childhood, as it had (then?) the reputation of rather being a child's book. I do not see to 100% The Hobbit as #4 of a movie series like e.g. Star Wars 1 even if it is similar in some points, as it might be the pre story how Frodo got to be the ring-bearer.... but beside one main character no one else stays a main character => for me it is in the same world but not within the main storyline of LotR => I am rather astonished about the financial results, as the age recommendations / promotions.... didn't follow this reputation. I'll ‘judge’ the Hobbit movies when the story is told/finished => if all of them are released as the extended version as the movie making companies tend to cut the - for me more interesting - character scenes in favor for the 'explosions' (those I like too) and not one day earlier.

I think it is sad....

According to the start side here: Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters added another $15.2 million overseas, pushing its total to $127.2 million. The global total is now $181.3 million. Key stats from Paramount:Germany led the way where the film made a spectacular $5.4M from 408 locations for a blazing #1 opening, which was 700% above Red Riding Hood, 78% above Underworld Awakening, 25% above Snow White and the Huntsman and 328% above Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter. Spain also opened at #1 with an excellent $2.4M at 487 theaters. This opening was slightly better than Underworld Awakening and more than doubles the openings of Red Riding Hood and Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter. The UK also took a strong $2.4M from 404 locations, good for #2 (behind Wreck It Ralph), and better than Underworld Awakening, Red Riding Hood and Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter. Also of note was the opening in Austria, where Hansel grossed an amazing $800k for a clear-cut #1 opening, almost 50% above Snow White and the Huntsman, more than double Underworld Awakening and at more than triple the level of Red Riding Hood and Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter. The film played in a total of 54 territories in over 3500 cinemas and holdovers only dropped by 30%. France opens next week.

Hi IndustriosAngel, here on the main side is an article about this weekend Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters ......Germany led the way where the film made a spectacular $5.4M from 408 locations for a blazing #1 opening, which was 700% above Red Riding Hood, 78% above Underworld Awakening, 25% above Snow White and the Huntsman and 328% above Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter. ......

:rotfl:

wow, here the cinema owner could get in trouble for that.... As my son always looked older as he is/was I wasn't that trained to look out for it, but each time I took some other teen with me (and they were near the restriction age) we got 'carded'. Including last Friday for H&G. I do not know if they are similar strict in a bigger city, but in the cities with 15.000 to 35.000 around here they are.

H&G got an 'at-least-16 years-old-label' (for the US = that means at least, it is not a recommendation) and got here some very unsuited for the 16 year old starting times, some cinemas (me = countryside) have even only / mostly a after 22:00 o'clock (o'clock in the evening) starting time, no chance for still pupils or car-less teenagers to watch it beside probably Friday and Saturday. As the movie didn't get a FSK label till a few days before the premiere here (I checked the official side e.g. 1 week before, still no label) and a lot of people I know expected an 'at-least-18 year-old-label' => it might have influenced the offered times for it's 1st week. Curious to see if they add / change some times in the 2nd week. Van Helsing got an 'at-least-12 year-old-label', that might also have helped to get some more viewers in principle as an average FSK16 might get => I think it got even worse WOM if not even the 12year old didn't accept it. I laughed about it... (btw FSK12 = the only label where many cinemas allow younger viewers if accomanied by one parent (depending on the movie and the cinema's owner. Younger means 'at-least-6 years-old' plus one parent).

The movie I think might have similar fans is Van Helsing 2004 => it had 964.002 viewers at the openeing weekend => nearly $9 Million. That places it on #83 of all time Opening Weekends in Germany (tickets numbers). Germany has sometimes recognisable higher Opening Weekends, usually if a well known franchise is already established. Highest ticket numbers at Opening Weekends had some of the Harry Potter movies => record holder is still - with nearly 2.6 million viewers - Harry Potter 1 => exchange rate... in 2001 $18,520,294 (Total Gross $67,802,864). Highest Opening Weekend =/= Total Gross predictions and ticket numbers not always matching the money details, see Avatar's Total of $157,564,785 or highest result for an Opening Weekend see LotR's The Return of the King = Opening with over $30 Million. Van Helsing OW climbes here up to #61. As you seem to be an Avengers fan: Avengers Opening Weekend $8,444,708 (Total Gross $30,828,359) Thor (very well known name here, not so much the Marvel character) $8,690,043 (Total Gross $18,370989) Captain America $1,911,675 (Total Gross $4,872,496) Iron Man $3,444,559 (Total Gross $8,560,475) Iron Man 2 $3,223,268 (Total Gross $9,254,348) not Marvel Studio examples: X-Men 2 $7,991,185 (Total Gross $15,698,891) X-Men First Class $2,339,705 (Total Gross $7,048,582) Wolverine Origins $3,999,170 (Total Gross $9,633,797) X-Men 1 and 3 Totals ~ $12 Million

1. School shows? Wow, I am a bit surprised. I doubt 'my' school would choose it (as they discuss it with the pupils = I doubt our pupils would majority vote for it). They do 'difficult' themes, especially vs violence, neo-nazis or similar. 2. Comprehensible. I think I never really was aware at which time I went to the cinemas in my past, but will now be more aware of it. Thank You very much

Fingers crossed it 'makes' as much as the predicted 350k admissions (InsideKino?) => just came back from the sadly nearly empty cinema, only 11 visitors/viewers in an ~ 150 seat room = 18:00 starting time might have been too early for the 'at least 16y old' crowd. The trailer for the 3096 movie didn't animate me to watch the movie, one of my 'pupils' - who was with me and my son in the cinema too - will watch it.

Thank You very much. Funny - the opening weekend'spercetage is more/higher than the possible 100% of the totals (237.9%), if something like that happens repeatedly they might want to add a blocking software detail. Not meant as bickering, for me it is literally funny.

Hi, can please someone verify which of those two dates is the correct one? Or where could I read it for myself? As the date for China isn't listed within the IMDb table I do not know where else to find release details (especially China's). Over at Mojo something very strange happened in LM's Foreign - By Country table: New Zealand's Total Cross numbers are less as the Opening Weekend numbers . Total Cross should be ~ $3 million, not $280,277

You got it right

IMDb lists this countries' dates as still open Ireland 27 February 2013 Sweden 27 February 2013 UK 27 February 2013 Czech Republic 28 February 2013 Germany 28 February 2013 Netherlands 28 February 2013 Spain 1 March 2013 Venezuela 1 March 2013 France 6 March 2013 Do You know if Italy's specific release date is already announced? Where to find the details? Curious about especially the German results (how Germans will react about the 'changes' to the traditional version, I think I'll like it) and about the Japanese and Chinese results, if they get a release there (some fantasy movies seem to be very successful, some others not).

I'm feeling rather blown away by those numbers. Especially the Asian result details.

There seem to be no 'thank you' smiley here, so I hope this one is appropiate too Thank You! Mojo's final numbers are not always as complete as I hope for.....

Thank You for the welcome Hey, nice smilies here Mojo I do know, also InsideKino.... I thought I missed a source. Normally I wouldn't ask for the pre-results, but according to an article in the NOZ (Osnabrück) I accidently found in the net, they seem to have 'aired' the Berlin premiere into 120 cinemas all over Germany including some coverage of the premiere and a glass of .... whatever = event thingy. As those kind of 'spread-premiere-events' (???) are new for me (in Germany) I am curious how these kind of results will be presented / accounted for.

Hi I am new here, I hope it is o.K. to ask the following questions: - where do you find the Germany + Austria Top 13 Feb 14 - 17 list? - Les Miserables: will the numbers of the pre-screening (during the Berlin Filmfestival) be shown as weekend Feb 21 - 24 results or how will they show the small release numbers instead? Have a nice day
