rockNrollaDIM Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Nice. I saw a trailer for that the other day. It will almost certainly outgross the US gross. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 So Taken 2 is going to pass 300 mill next weekend? Wow. Very nice. And the Impossible is kicking all kinds of as in Spain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peludo Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 So Taken 2 is going to pass 300 mill next weekend? Wow. Very nice. And the Impossible is kicking all kinds of as in Spain. It is on track of reaching, at least, #3 all-time, outgrossing 32.8 million of ROTK. And if drops are as incredible as this weekend (just a 25%), Titanic's 38 million € will be in serious trouble. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Toymaker Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Shame Taken 2 is going to beat The Expendables 2. Still, $300m for TE2 is remarkable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 It's only a matter of time before Lionsgate and Millenium announce that EX2 has officially (even though we know it pretty much has already) passed 300 WW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Toymaker Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 It appears that BOMs entire International section has gone down. Go to individual foreign pages for films and there's no data too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJohn Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Skyfall is having a good OW here, but it won't top Quantum of Solace since that one had a 4 day OW, and this one is just 3 days. And box office is shitty here. QoS ended just a bit over 400.000 tickets sold, I believe that 320.000 tickets is a good number for this one (same as The Dark Knight Rises and a bit under American Pie Reunion and Ted).
