In France, Titanic is still first in admissions, 16 years later

You can't beat Hollywood, never B)

 

Not really. On most markets local movies are the record holders. In Polish case by 2 times

On a global scale Hollywood completely crush these local movies, Hollywood dominates, Hollywood crushes them, Hollywood is the best B)

Of course WW is impossible to even try to compete with Hollywood

But you weren't talking about the global scale. You are talking about local movies vs global movies. I get that you are an americanophile (always surprises me why such people exist, should get a trip to detroit) but remember that the marketing power of US studios plus expenses mean it's quite obvious you won't beat them WW. Especially since a lot of local movies aren't distributed WW like hollywood movies but on local markets Hollywood looses often because of the diluted quality of their blockbusters that have to work both in countries like Japan and in ones like Greece. The viewer mentality there is totally different and even though I hate most of what my country produces they won't win here anytime soon.

Also Wild Tales is already the third Local Movie of All Time (in Admissions) and the second (in Gross). At this pace it should be number one in both charts by next weekend!!!

Lucy and The Maze Runner are both doing around $0.5m this weekend. It's not a good opening but better than expected after the horrible Thursday so I am happy for them. They open in second and third because Wild Tales is falling again less than 30% and doing, on its fifth weekend, more than those 2 movies together!!!

It needs $14.1m to be the most successful local movie of all time. I think it will finish a little over it. In admissions I think it will enter the all time Top Ten beating The Avengers selling 2.7m+ tickets

[tupek]

Yes.....! Relatos Salvajes will be in the top ten!!

[Hernan Gonzalez]

Top 5 Weekend:

 

1- Wild Tales (Relatos Salvajes), 178134 admissions, -35%. Cume: 2341476 adm

2- Maze Runner, 81547 adm, new, around $0.5m

3- Lucy, 81034 adm, new, around $0.5m

4- Hercules, 32205 adm, -59%. Cume: 305612 adm

5- Las Insoladas (Local Comedy), 30067 adm, new.

 

Finally The Maze Runner beats Lucy by 500 admissions. Not a good opening for them. 

 

Next Thursday Into the Storm and 22JS open in this market. I think Wild Tales is going to win again (its 6th weekend)...

That one is a very old movie (released in 1975). There are many movies from "the glorious days of the argentinean movie industry" that were supposed to top the list of the most successful films ever but numbers from that time are not very reliable.
