John Marston Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 The title didn't hurt the first movie. maybe it did, since its opening was poor and in the end it didn't really sell that many tickets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

picores Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 How much from China is required to have a chance for 400 OS? Maybe 50-60m? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimpo Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 From China at least 60-70 milion $ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omni Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 To "have a chance", even a sub-30M gross could be enough. To actually get there, more like 35/40M. Even without a Japan release, 350M OS (minus China) is a near lock, and 360 quite likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godzilla Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 Anyone still doubting 400M OS?$450M if it performs really well in China. $600M WW should happen. It's a hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godzilla Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 (edited) What are the remaining territories?I think Italy, China and Japan. Could do $80M in those 3 countries. ($60M - China, Italy - $10M, and Japan - $10M) Edited August 3, 2014 by Godzilla likes Tom Cruise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chimpo Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 One thing is sure. This OS run is very stable. It's 20-30 milion $ week after week. It should add another 30 million from holdovers. I has a good chance to reach $400M OS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omni Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 30M from holdovers...after a 36M week? Try with 60. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TServo2049 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 (edited) Glad to see that even though this wasn't a KFP2-style OS explosion, it will be at the very least a Puss in Boots-style save of face.I hope when this is over, DW actually makes a profit from its theatrical run (at the time of their Q2 report, they said they hadn't recouped anything yet...)

chimpo Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Well Fox will probably send them money in Q3. Like they said in Q2 report - "It will be a highly profitable film for the Company and DreamWorks Dragons will remain a very valuable franchise for many years to come." Enough said.

John Marston Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 so about 410 overseas combined with 173m domestic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 so about 410 overseas combined with 173m domestic. $430M OS can easily be done. $450M OS if it breaks out in China. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KFP2 didn't explode at all, its increase OS was quite moderate, less than HTTYD2 is going to increase, it is KFP2's pure numbers that HTTYD2 won't match.

Silly me, I actually brought up that fact earlier in this very thread, so I'm not sure why I used the term "explosion." I guess what I meant was, while it's not going to make $500m OS like KFP2 did, it's still going to do Puss in Boots-type numbers and save face from its domestic performance the way Puss did (though it will have made over $20m more domestically).
