The Legend of Tarzan | OS Rollout July 2016

Recommended Posts



I don't know, Tarzan as a superhero might work these days, but on the other hand how long has it been since a Tarzan movie became a big hit, as this one needs to be?  The 1960s...the 1950s?  I mean besides Disney Animation's 1999 animated feature, since it's hard to separate the Disney factor from that.

 

I will say, as a fan of the original pulp novels, that probably everything that could be done right has been done right, from what I've seen so far, which is quite gratifying.  This seems closer to the real Tarzan character than I can recall ever seeing, so in addition to hoping that it's a good movie aside from that, I sure hope that it will be successful in any case.  Generally speaking, it looks good, and I hope it will gross at least $400M OS, too, but I don't know how the public views this.

The Legend of Tarzan OS Thread

I can't wait to see how well this does overseas, I'm hoping for at least 400 mil. Early screenings have been receiving great reception, plus looks like a great action flick.

What number are you hoping for?

Screenings already? I thought the only announced the special screening, for June.

Thinking 250-300m OS, 125-150m Dom for 375-450m WW.

(The prod budget according to BOM is 180m)

Boxofficepro says projected Dom is only 50 mil. I think OS will suffer as well.

The 180 mil budget kills this movie, IMHO.

Yeah, their Dom projection shocked me. At the very least I saw 75m dom/175m os/250m ww even if it bombed. I think they are under-predicting a lot based on WB bombs last year. I have reduced my expectations from 125-150m dom to ~100m dom.

Yup, 75+175 is my guess as well.

Is this from IMDB? Because in a lot of cases it's not accurate. Tarzan opens in Romania for example only next week.

THE LEGEND OF TARZAN
Swinging into 19 international markets, the David Yates-directed spin on Edgar Rice Burroughs’ classic creation snatched $18.8M on about 6,700 screens. 

 

Tarzan predictably topped Russian box office with 44% of the Top 5 at $3M. The action/CGI lends itself to Russian audiences, but the opening is only on par with the launch of Snow White And The Huntsman and 35% above Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes. That film’s sequel, Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes, fared much better in Russia with a $9.8M start in 2014.

Similarly, in Korea, Skarsgard’s turn as a thinking man’s Tarzan grossed $4M from 600 screens. This is currently a crowded market with two local pics, Familyhood andThe Hunt both performing strongly. Tarzan landed No. 2. It should be noted that Disney’s The Jungle Book, which has grossed upwards of $18M here, is still in Korean theaters. On 122 offshore IMAX screens, thet total is $1.2M.

Elsewhere on Tarzan, Asia had No. 1 openings in India, Indonesia, Thailand and Malaysia. Without going into detail, WB says Tarzan opened No. 1 in the majority of Eastern European markets and Puerto Rico. Next weekend, more heavy-hitters come along including the UK, France, Australia and Mexico.
