What is the February record? I need it for the 9/12 months OW record club.

[Noctis]

The international number is fucking stunning. Holy shit. By the time actuals roll in, I'm sure it'll pass $160m and be Universal's biggest foreign OW.

Passion with 83-84m

That international number is nuts and makes me kind of sad that a film like this is doing so well

"a film like this" = A film that wasn't made for 13 year olds?

3RD UPDATE, SATURDAY AM: If Fifty Shades Of Grey handcuffs Universal’s very early international weekend estimate of $158.3M, it will become the studio’s 2nd biggest offshore opening frame ever, just behind Fast & Furious 6’s $160.3M. Outside sources whisper that it is likely to climax even higher than that for this five-day session. It is expected to be far-and-away the biggest opening weekend of all-time for an R-rated film overseas, whipping previous title holder The Matrix Revolutionsat $117M.

I didn't realise I'm a 40 year old woman now sonny Jim.

Movies made for 40+year old women don't open very high but have tremendous legs as a rule. I suspect we'll see quite the reverse situation with 50SoG.

Soooo, those large groups of 18-26 years old women i saw who went to see 50 shades were just really, really young looking 40+ year old?

You gotta think the other way. You saw a group half that big filled with 38-52 year old women.

[Ethan Hunt]

I didn't say that 40 year old women were the only people seeing the movie.
