zackzack Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 WTF? This movie still isn't out in UK? World Cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zackzack Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Not bad. Looks like Asia at least can deliver string numbers. I'm thinking about 415m overseas Wonder why the original is not a big hit in Northern Europe with all the Viking references, dragon, the whole Old Germanic folklore.

Omni Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Strong openings, 500M OS still possible. So boring and uninteresting though, a carbon copy of Kung Fu Panda 2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elyccia Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 At least overseas markets know HTTYD 2 is a must watch movie. And it didn't open everywhere yet. Let's pray it will continue. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted June 22, 2014 Author Share Posted June 22, 2014 At least overseas markets know HTTYD 2 is a must watch movie. And it didn't open everywhere yet.It still hasn't opened in most European and Asian markets. It'll make $150M with just these current markets, which is impressive. $400M is going to happen and it has a strong shot at $500M OS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redgarlic68 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 (edited) So boring and uninteresting though, a carbon copy of Kung Fu Panda 2. No.God, I don't even know where to begin... I've watched it three times here in Mexico, only the last with a full theater (I blame the previous two on the hour) and the audience was quite connected with it, with a lot of laughs, and quiet at the serious moments. I'm glad it's doing fine, and hope it continues to do so. Edited June 22, 2014 by redgarlic68 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elyccia Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Glad to hear, I'm so happy to see , good results for it overseas! I'm very confident for France as well because httyd 2 opens at the movies "party " day here. Which means a lot of people are going to theater that day and then if the french likes it , a lot more of word of mouth! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 It's not even open in a lot of markets But it is not getting any #1 wkn DOM or OS, which is just bad for an animation blockbuster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domestic I agree, but OS weekend is iffy since the #1 movie has most territories while Dragon is missing quite a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Marvel Fanboy Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 It opened in serveral major markets (20+ in total) last weekend, but it is beaten by Maleficent at its 4th weekend. No way to spin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tupek Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Strong openings, 500M OS still possible. So boring and uninteresting though, a carbon copy of Kung Fu Panda 2. In box office terms, maybe. Because KFP2 declined from the first one domestically but was huge Overseas. However, I´d say this is faring better than KFP2 because the first HTTYD was comparatively small Overseas, and, for now, it´s doing very well in most of the markets it´s opened. Let´s see: <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>DRAGON 2 scarfed down $43.5M overseas this weekend, $77.2M overall. OZ ($8.2M) MEX ($7.2M) BRZ ($6.8M)</p>— Exhibitor Relations (@ERCboxoffice) <a href="https://twitter.com/ERCboxoffice/statuses/480761464211267584">June 22, 2014</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> In Mexico it is almost 3 times the first film´s opening. Also Brazil. Huge opening, on par with Despicable Me 2. I wouldn´t have thought it could be that big in Brazil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
