How to Train Your Dragon 2 OS (418 mil OS!!!)

Recommended Posts









For one thing, China's weekend gross was underestimated by over $2.5M - the 11-day cume number reported with the Sunday studio estimate was $48.2M, while the 11-day cume gross reported with the China weekly finals was $50.8M.

 

It has been updated already!

Man, HTTYD2 is doing better than I thought. It almost grossed twice more OS than the first one.

Um, not quite. Twice HTTYD1's OS gross would be almost $555 million. That's probably what DW was anticipating it to make pre-release, though...The fact that it will ultimately increase over 50% from Dragon 1, without 3D being the novelty it was in 2010, is still dang good. Especially after it stumbled domestically... Edited by TServo2049

Deadline says:

How To Train Your Dragon 2 is expected to place as the No. 2 movie in China this weekend with an additional $6.3M on 3,246 screens. That takes its local cume to $57.33M after three frames. HTTYD2 had no new openings this frame, but did see Italy burst back into the No. 1 spot with $981K from 592 locations. There were also jumps in the UK, for a local cume of $40.4M, and France, where it rose by 15% in its 9th weekend for a total tally of $25.9M. The full weekend take for HTTYD2 overseas was $10.5M. The international cume, including the non-Fox markets, is at $420.2M.

OK, now I'm really confused. On Monday, BOM updated the OS gross to $413.2M. Now it's $418.5M. (BOM subtracts out the double-counted Puerto Rico total). But if it made $10.5M OS over the weekend, and it was at $413.2M on BOM on Monday, why is the official total as of today, WITH PR double-counting, only at $420.2M?And the tracking in the China thread shows a USD total of $62.7M, not $57.33M. Also, are they saying it made $6.5M over the 3-day, or the entire week? Either way, there seems to be at least $5M missing, doesn't there? It just doesn't add up. Is this going to be like the $17M that was "disappeared" from TF4's China gross? What gives?EDIT: Looking back at the $402.3m cume that was reported at the end of last weekend, I'm now seriously wondering if the $413.2m that BOM had as of 8/25 was actually a typo, and it was supposed to be $403.2m. That makes more sense - a $10.5m weekend plus Tue-Thu grosses would probably add up to $15.3m, and thus to BOM's current de-PR'ed $418.5m. Still doesn't explain the China cume being over $5m less than our sources, though. Edited by TServo2049
