BoxOffice ‏@BoxOffice  · 2m GOD'S NOT DEAD took in an estimated $5.49M this weekend. Domestic total now stands at $40.84M. #GodsNotDead

[kayumanggi]

RIO 2 flew in with $62.3M overseas in 62 markets (#1 in 35) this weekend, $125.2M total.

 

Rio 3 is a lock.

 

So at least 250 M overseas.

If Ca beats Mos I am going to laugh. 

why ? MoS is terrible movie. no wonder it fell hard everywhere after opening.

[kayumanggi]

If Ca beats Mos I am going to laugh. 

 

Why? It is very possible now.

[kayumanggi]

Even if it doesn't hit 700M, it has legitimate shot at beating both Thor 2 and MOS, nobody saw that coming. 

 

Beating TDW is a lock, imo.

TASM ll in Middle East and Africa:

Asia Pacific:

So at least 250 M overseas.

Should do another 60M next weekend. These next days are going to be absolutely insane for Rio 2 OS. I am still thinking on 300M OS.

It's mimicking the first movie. TASM ll is a strong competition though.

Easter holidays and it is going to be the only animation flick in many markets. Tis gonna be huge.

The first weekend of heat after Winter kills movies in Europe. Why would be any different in America?

 

Because the weather is not all bad in U.S. The weather varies from state to state. Unless there's a major snowstorm that shuts down an entire region, the weather usually has no effect.

400mill overseas is a lock for rio imho!Obviously its going to gross another 60 next weekend!Its the only animated film in the market till HTTYD2

[Sam]

When are Easter holidays in other countries? Are mostly of them next week?

[baumer]

This nice weather shit bothers me. Does that even make sense?Seriously.

 

Yes, it does.

 

I explained this before.  This is the first nice weekend the Northeastern US and Southwestern part of Canada has experienced since December.  So it does make people want to do other things besides go to the movies.  In the summer, the nice weather is a moot point because every day is nice.  But when you have your first nice day in about 160 days, people want to get out and do things.

In Europe, the first weekend with good weather after Winter always happens in March and always kills movies.

It is doing so much money over here that I think not even the distributor believes. Theater owners must be in shock because the movie opened in smaller screens than Rio 2 and Divergent, and it is killing them all.

Easter is happening both in the west and the east simultaneously this year.
