Omni Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 700M WW was locked when the first Japanese #'s came 8 days ago. Now it is so locked that I'm surprised baumer couldn't see the obviousness. If Maleficent can survive the 5 openers in Japan next weekend (=30% drop or lower), 500M OS will be in the bag and we'll start talking about 750M WW. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajbg Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 It has Jolie attached as a director which should be enough. And a great story.I love dramas. GA not much. It's rare a drama makes more than 100 million overseas. Changeling (with Jolie) made only 77 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But international releases are weak: only Planes 2 can make some money, and Planes made only 1M OW.http://www.imdb.com/calendar/?region=jp&ref_=ttrel_rel_66 Edited July 13, 2014 by Ajbg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alee7915 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) [*]Maleficent has now grossed close to $670m worldwide to date and added $13.4m from 45 territories through Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures International to climb to $447m after seven weekends. The film stayed top in its second weekend in Japan and has now reached $19.1m. Elsewhere, China has generated $46m, Mexico $45.2m, Russia $37.2m, Brazil $31.1m and the UK $30.2m http://www.screendaily.com/box-office/transformers-4-surges-past-500m/5075131.article?blocktitle=LATEST-INTERNATIONAL-BOX-OFFICE-NEWS&contentID=40071 (Today is Male's last day in China! ) Edited July 13, 2014 by A K A 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.B.S. overseas numbers.I know dramas are tough sell.But unbroken is a bigger picture than Changeling. And has some action. Maybe it works. I'm really curious about it.

Blackout Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) It made 38 million in last 7 days lol Wasn't it at 418.5 at the end of last weekend? 447-418.5 = 28.5 500m is still likely with Japan tho I think Deadline: Maleficent’s international tally after this weekend is $447M, and its global total is $668.9M. The Disney pic added $13.4M this frame in 45 markets. In Japan, where it dethroned Frozen as the No. 1 movie last weekend, it maintained its position with a 25% drop. The cume there after two weeks is $19.1M. $19.1-$6.8=$12.3m So the weekly in countries other than Japan is $28.5-$12.3=$16.2. Still doing great.

But, actually it'll do more, because Japan has only two days weekend - the multiplier is bigger - and in other places it has good légs (bigger multiplier too).

paul75 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 so more 30m in Japan = 487m. Only needs more 13m. WW 730 is possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tower Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 which considering the 35 DOM is absolutly extraordinary. See Sanda B. T.B.S. overseas numbers. The Blind Side isn't a comparison for anything other than American Football films, it is not representative of dramas in general. their are plenty of dramas that do more than that OS, and with a better OS/DOM ratio.

Hilderic Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 TFioS is doing so much more than $100m OSI think the poster was talking about movies with a very American subject. Even Lincoln (Spielberg + DDL + Oscar) did less than $100m. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alee7915 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) Yesterday was not the last day for Maleficent in China! I checked the Wanda Cinema(largest chain in China) website and it shows Maleficent still on their list but with limited screen tomorrow(Tuesday)! Here we go, China (Monday 14/07) 2.0M yuan, Total : 289M yuan/$46.6M Edited July 14, 2014 by A K A 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
