The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies OS Thread | 700M OS passed

[Leyla]

So, $20m lower just in Russia relative to last year exchange rate... Just if Russian Ruble had been like last year, 1 billion would have been accomplished. What a bad luck. With TF4 exchange rates, Hobbit would win the 2014 WW crown.

lol even before the NY holidays ppl at the local Tolkien forum were like "we know WHO are to blame for no billion"

poor bbs took it personally   

 

thanks a lot for your data post!

Good news, Jackson and Armitage just came to Beijing in order to promote BOFA.

[Leyla]

the demand is still there!   imo it still may have a chance at the Top 3 of all time in rub

New Line-MGM’s The Hobbit: The Battle Of The Five Armies stands at $547.8m through Warner Bros Pictures International and is expected to cross $560m by the end of the weekend.

[MonstersandRoy]

Mean's it will be on around $810-$820m worldwide by the the end of the weekend. Just a couple of weeks till the big China release.

DOM is not the main guilty. With July exchange rates this would be making about 1.05 billion. Maybe more Edited January 17, 2015 by peludo

DOM is not the main guilty. With July exchange rates this would be making about 1.1 billion

 

But even when we were predicting just before release I thought 750m OS is possible even with weak exchange rates. But its holds in OS markets have been weaker than what I thought was possible. Plus it flattered to deceive in domestic post christmas. it kind of looked like making 275M but slowed down quite quickly.

Sure. My prediction before release was exactly what you say: 275/750/1.025. But even with meh DOM run, OS numbers should have been enough to reach the billion. This will be the most attended film of the trilogy. With last year exchange rates we would be talking about 800 OS. Dollar is stronger each day. That is the problem for the billion, not -15 million DOM Edited January 17, 2015 by peludo

  The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies WB $803.1 $244.5 30.4% $558.6 69.6%

1 billion is so dead

[kayumanggi]

lol So what? Because 900 M+ is terrible?

[Moviedweeb]

I don't believe that was implied at all. The Hobbit has performed extremely well, but lots of us would have liked to have seen 3 $1b WW grossers. 

[peludo]

And let's remember this is being the most attended film of the trilogy OS. It is having the same problem that FOTR had in LOTR trilogy.

[MonstersandRoy]

How much do people think Hobbit will get from all world markets bar China then? How much more can it gross from international/US? $20m? $30m?

Following the current ratio, 30/70, maybe another 10 million from US and 20 from current OS markets, so yes, $30m.

You don't know John Marston then lol.

 

The thing is, it's so easy to expect 3 billion from these films. Even I thought it would be easy. However, we should have realized by now that they are not LOTR films. The source has been split to accommodate three films, the end products aren't critical hits and even the exchange rate has played a role. We should already be happy with what the films have achieved. And you know what, if it hadn't been for 3D, 1 billion or even 900 million wouldn't have been possible.
