The original English language version of Frozen has come to my theater. I saw the dubbed version and didn't much care for it. Should I try to see it in English? 

 

 

 

Naaaaaaaaaah. 

[Shawn Robbins]

Where did you get these from?  I just checked BOM and they had nothing.

 

 

We're quicker.

BOM?Boxoffice.com is where it's at!!!!(Unless you want archives, records, comparisons, or other important box office stuff)Shawn's articles > BOM though.

Rth had said 2.1 and 2.9, so he was right yet again. Possible it makes it to 400 today, but def Friday. Woo!

 

Tomorrow is the day history will be made.First time, 400M grosser to a sequel of 400M grosser.

Oh fine... you can talk about the NFL, Ed.

(But I know what you meant.)

Nolan's been there done that Druv.

CF will be the first movie to be a 400m+ grossing sequel to a 400m+ grosser and increase upon the previous movie's gross

even adjusted it's still a pretty exclusive club:

Star Wars series (6 entries)

LOTR series (3 entries)

Batman series (3 entries)

Indiana Jones series (3 entries)

Spider-Man series (2 entries)

Pirates series (2 entries)

Hunger Games series (2 entries)

James Bond (2 entries)

Jurassic Park (2 entries)

 

huh, Potter couldn't even manage 2?

[RthDeadWov]

Rth said $2.9 million.

CF tues said 2.1 the 2.9 was wed

[a2k]

Nolan's sequel decreased by about 16%, CF will improve upon it's predecessor by about 5%. I think that is pretty cool for CF.

[John Marston]

I wonder how Avengers 2 will now do. AlsoIt's amazing how CF matched THG but Trek 2 decreased despite adding. 3D

[cory]

TDK improved upon Batman 89 

[a2k]

Potter couldn't manage even 2...yes. But which other series has had 8 movies in 10 years?

[#ED]

Nolan's sequel decreased by about 16%, CF will improve upon it's predecessor by about 5%. I think that is pretty cool for CF.

 

But 410M is 38M short of 448M by TDKR. 

 

[Captain Craig]

TDW increased, still having 3-D, but less share of it. 

It's still so much a crap shoot on what will do what type business for so many things.

 

Just when we think we've got it figured out.....

[cory]

Potter couldn't manage even 2...yes. But which other series has had 8 movies in 10 years?

Good point, but it had already fallen out of orbit with the 2nd and 3rd movies. Edited January 2, 2014 by cory

It's definitely a huge accomplishment for CF. Basically the equivalent of movies from 8-10 years ago doing $300m+ in succession.

 

But, of course, TDKR's gross has an asterisk next to it. Probably wouldn't have hit TDK's gross either way, but we'll never really know.
