Breaking Dawn adds $76m internationally to cross $275m

A solid second weekend for Summit’s latest Twilight episode delivered a confirmed $76m from approximately 10,500 venues in 68 markets as the running total overtook Twilight’s $200m lifetime tally. Bella, Edward and friends should surge past the half-billion global mark within a day or two.

The number one hold in the UK led the second weekend territories as $7m (£4.6m) boosted the tally to $36.4m (£23.3m). Breaking Dawn – Part 1 is on course to overtake Eclipse’s £29.8m final score by next weekend to become the biggest entry in the franchise so far.

Spielberg is a big name in Japan. Lets look at the performances of his recent films:Indiana Jones 4: 5.71B YenMunich: 1.00B YenWar of the Worlds: 6.00B YenThe Terminal: 4.15B YenCatch me...: 2.90B YenMinority Report: 5.24B YenA.I.: 9.70B YenSo apart from Munich, which was rated R, everything has done pretty well. I am hoping that Tintin can do 4.0B Yen which equates to $51m.

Tintin's popularity in Japan is pretty much the same as in China. I never read Tintin but I heard that it got some sort of "anti-Japan" stuff (sth about Japan's invasion in China last century)Given its poor performance in those markets where it's not well-known, 50m in Japan seems a bit high. Also Japanese are very picky on animation films. They may think it's a little bit too childish.

is Tin Tin popular in Japan or Australia? If not, it should only do average business there. Tin Tin seems to only be taking off in countries where it is well known

i think its popular in Australia.. Could do 15-20 mill IMO

Yeah. It is more likely than those 300-350m predicts IMO.

It made $20M last week, which was a 30% drop. Therefore I think it will make about $250M from current markets (Europe, China, some other Asian countries). Do you really believe the remaining OS markets (Japan, Korea, Australia/NZ, South America) will account for $200M?

No. 3, Steven Spielberg’s The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret Of The Unicorn, flew past the $200-million foreign gross total mark over the weekend ($201.2 million). The stop-motion animation in 3D opened offshore on Oct. 26. Latest weekend for the joint Sony-Paramount release generated $12.5 million from about 12,000 venues in 55 markets. Its North American debut is set for Dec. 21.

What the fuck!!?? It was at $189.6m after last weekend. The weekdays were negative?

Surely there is some typing mistake there.

And do you really believe they will account for less than $100m?
