X-Men: Days of Future Past OS thread

Recommended Posts

It's gonna be a huge OS year for Fox. Coming up : Dragon 2 ($500M), Apes 2 ($350M), Penguins of Madagascar ($400M), Night at the Museum 3 ($300M), Exodus ($300M). Exodus will do better OS number than Noah...hopefully.

Yeah. Fox should cross 2B They have a strong plate from now on this year

 Internationally, the 20th Century Fox tentpole took in $191 million through Monday, putting its global opening at a whopping $302 million -- the best debut of any X-Men film.

 

Yup, 20M monday!

In the UK

Fox’s latest X-Men outing stormed its way to a terrific $15.4m (£9.13m), including previews of $2.7m (£1.6m), to surpass The Amazing Spider-Man 2’s $15.2m (£9m) bow which included $4.9m (£2.9m) in previews.

That also marks the best opening of the X-Men series, overtaking X-Men: The Last Stand’s $11.9m (£7.1m) which included $1.7m (£1m) in previews. X2 is the best UK performer to date at $34.8m (£20.7m), a tally that Days of Future Past should easily overtake in the coming weeks.

It’s worth noting that its Fri-Sun tally of $12.7m (£7.5m) would have also seen Days of Future Past comfortably land the number one spot and also the biggest opening of the X-Men series.

Days of Future Past also posted the seventh biggest opening for Fox of all time and the biggest Fox opening since Ice Age: The Meltdown’s $16.5m (£9.8m) in 2006.

Including Bank Holiday Monday [May 26], X-Men: Days of Future Past has grossed $19.5m (£11.6m) and should enjoy a prosperous week ahead with the school holidays.

You are quite right to compare it with POTC4, but for POTC4, Japan had also opened on OW and it had a leggy run. If you remove Japan from the equation, the opening was 241.8m and total was 695.5m. Performing the same calculation with these numbers will yield 492m from current markets. I am expecting 475m because of slightly heavier competition, and another 35m from the remaining markets.

 

You are right. If anything, Japan should be excluded from the total to avoid skewing the comparison. In such a case, with ~$510M outside NA, whether it will surpass Captain America 2 in worldwide grosses remains to be seen (I hope it doesn't, but the fact that there is no clear winner in this 3-way Marvel comic-book adaptation competition makes it even more interesting to observe).

DOFP increased 32.5% over Wolverine (the biggest opener) and 116% over FC (in admissions, not talking about gross here)

it's the 7th biggest OW for a superhero movie (again, in admissions)
