pinocchio Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I just realize Intouchables is a monster hit in the french speaking part of Switzerland, too.More than 400'000 admissions so far. Which is simply insane. Because there are not even two million people there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinocchio Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Top ten for Switzerland until last weekend:http://www.filmdistr.../top10adm.shtmlLast Avin flick will probably top the first one but never reach the numbers of the second one (which finished with 286 k admissions).

fmpro Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Intouchables is just a french comedy made for the french market. So far three of them have become monster hits and entered the top 5 in France since 1938. Bienvenue chez les Cht'is, La Grande Vadrouille and now Intouchables.With those drops Intouchables might even top Titanic in admissions and become the number one flick in France since 38.Some of the German monster hits were local comedies, too. Like Der Schuh des Manitu who topped Avatar in Germany.Okey.. I guess that germany don't care if its a french speaking movie when they dub it..Germany could be monster huge too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJohn Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Foreign Box Office: 'Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows' Still No. 1 Overseas "Contraband" and "The Descendants" open softly offshore, while "Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol" places No. 2 for the weekend. Warner Bros.’ Sherlock Homes: A Game of Shadows held the No. 1 box office spot on the foreign theatrical circuit for the second consecutive weekend, drawing $27.4 million from 57 markets and lifting its overseas gross total to $222 million. Solid No. 1 openings in Brazil ($3.3 million at 429 locations) and in Argentina along with a first-place holdover in Australia ($3.4 million from 386 sites) helped drive the action for director Guy Ritchie’s sequel costarring Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law. A China launch commenced Sunday, with figures due the following day. Warners said that the offshore cume for Game of Shadows is 13% ahead of 2009’s Sherlock Homes comparable tally “at the same point in release.” (The original Holmes grossed a total of $315 million overseas.) Universal’s release of Contraband, director Baltasar Kormakur’s crime thriller starring Mark Wahlberg – which opened No. 1 domestically – dipped its toes internationally in seven markets (Russia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Bulgaria and Slovenia) for a weekend take of $1.5 million from 479 locations. Russia provided $1 million from 373 playdates. Openings in 10 new markets are on tap this week including in Israel and Taiwan. Also introducing itself overseas was The Descendants, director Alexander Payne’s drama starring George Clooney as a businessman trying to reunite with to daughters after his wife’s boating accident. The 20th Century Fox release opened No. 5 in Australia, generating $2.39 million from 233 screens. Paramount’s Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, which has grossed $320 million since opening on the foreign circuit on Dec. 14, drew $16.8 million on the weekend from 5,847 venues in 58 territories. The action sequel starring Tom Cruise remains No. 1 in Japan in its fifth market round ($2.6 million from 344 situations for a cume of $57.3 million) and No. 2 in South Korea (via C.J. Entertainment) with $2.9 million posted there at 402 locations for a five-week market total of $45 million. It ranked No. 2 overall on the weekend. A China opening is due later this month. The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, director David Fincher’s interpretation of the Swedish thriller, opened No. 2 in Germany, drawing $3.4 million from 551 spots. A No. 4 Australia debut generated $2.5 million at 257 sites. The Sony release opened in at least nine territories, grabbing the No. 1 spot in Switzerland and Greece. The No. 3 weekend overall came up with $16.5 million from 3,920 screens in 44 markets for an international cume since Dec. 21 of $49.7 million. No. 4 was DreamWorks Animation’s Puss In Boots, which made a No. 1 debut in South Korea (via C.J. Entertainment) at some 800 venues, drawing $5.3 million. In Turkey, the Paramount release drew $757,000 from 185 sites, a record market opening for a DreamWorks Animation title. Weekend overall came up with $14.6 million at 5,679 locations in 56 markets, lifting the film’s overseas gross total to $331.7 million. No. 5, Fox’s Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked, elevated its foreign gross total to $154.2 million thanks to a $14.4 million weekend playing at 6,527 screens in 64 markets. Openings in Poland and Latvia plus strong holds in Brazil ($3.1 million at 539 sites for a cume of $13.4 million), U.K., Spain, Mexico and Argentina drove weekend action for the third installment of the computer animation franchise about singing chipmunks. Fox’s release of The Darkest Hour, a Russia-set sci/fi-horror outing, premiered in 26 markets, and drew $9.6 million overall from a total of 4,284 locations in 57 territories. No. 1 openings were recorded in Mexico ($1.4 million at 572 screens), Holland, Bolivia and in Hong Kong ($551,681 at 72 sites or more than $7.600 per screen on average). International cume stands at $28.8 million. No. 1 in the U.K. was director Steven Spielberg’s War Horse, which drew an estimated $7 million from some 500 locations, the lion’s share of the DreamWorks/Disney release’s $8.5 million weekend take from a dozen markets. International cume stands at $17.3 million. In France, Gaumont’s Intouchables was displaced by director Clint Eastwood’s J. Edgar from Warner Bros. as the market’s No. 1 title after 10 weeks in the top spot. The phenomenally popular comedy paring a wealthy quadriplegic with a caretaker with a shady past drew an estimated $3 million in the No. 2 spot from 809 playdates, lifting its France cume past $140 million (an estimated $140.3 million). However, in Germany Intouchables via Senator emerged No. 1 in its second round in the market, grossing an estimated $5.2 million from some 430 locations. For its part, J. Edgar generated $6.4 million on the weekend overall from 10 markets for an early international cume of $12.4 million. The first place berth in France was secured with $4 million generated at 477 screens. Openings in Germany and the U.K. are due this week. Otherwise in France, the top local language newcomer is Diaphana Films’ release of director-scripter Pierre Pinaud’s Parlez-moi de vous, a comedy-drama about a reclusive 40-year-old radio sex therapist (Karin Viard) with a spinsterish private life. Opening round at some 220 screens drew an estimated $800,000 and a No. 5 market ranking. Director Steven Spielberg’s The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn grossed $3.4 million on the weekend -- $2 million from 1,485 screens in 35 markets handled by Sony, and $1.4 million generated at 525 spots in 13 markets handled by Paramount. Cume comes to $260.8 million. The Iron Lady, the biopic of former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher Starring Meryl Streep, took the No. 2 spot in the U.K. with an estimated $2.7 million drawn from about 500 locations for a market cume of an estimated $8.4 million. Other international cumes: Warner Bros./New Line’sNew Year’s Eve, $87.5 million (from 53 markets including a $2.9 million Russia opening at 739 sites); Hugo, $8.1 million (in Paramount handled territories only); Sony’s Jack and Jill, $22 million (after a $1.2 million weekend at 315 screens in 24 markets); Disney’s The Muppets, $15 million (after a $3.5 million in its eighth round overseas in 22 markets); Fox’s We Bought A Zoo, $16.5 million; and Studio Canal’s Hollywoo, $18 million over six rounds in France only.

Fake Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 That Tintin cume cant be right...The Tintin number we have been getting from HR these days is just from Sony and Paramount markets combined. Japan and SK were independently distributed which have made around $18m looking at the $278.8m figure you have posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
