NoobSaibot Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 (edited) My expectations have lowered significantly. I don't think this will touch $300 million overseas, even with China. With BatB's performance so far, the drops are looking to be too severe. Edited March 17, 2017 by NoobSaibot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think 150m from the other territories would be a easy given. I see 350-400 OS. Edited March 18, 2017 by Cookson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Impossible Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 (edited) It's at $149M OS now. $500M WW is in danger now, it all depends on China (if it does like $150M+ there) Edited March 19, 2017 by Mr Impossible 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze Heatnix Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 This movie will definitely need China and Japan, if it even thinks about making 500 million worldwide. It's not locked, in my view. Not with BATB eating a lot of legs and screens. Peter Jackson's Kong made 550 million worldwide, and that number was considered disappointing 12 freaking years ago. So, anything less than 500 million for this movie ( with inflated ticket prices ) obviously will be considered disappointing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookson Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 It'll get to 500m WW. At least 40m from the US and 50m from current OS markets get it to 350m. It'll probably nibble and get more out of those too.... At a minimum that 150m remaining for China and Japan. It'll do it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WB should release Kong after BatB in some markets.Showtimes and Imax screens hurt a lot.China doesn't have BtaB effect.Musical can't do too big.China can eat up Big monster film.550-600M WW still possible.

Purple Minion Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Screendaily Legendary-Warner Bros’ Kong: Skull Island added $38.5m at the weekend as the latest ‘MonsterVerse’ instalment reached $149.2m. The UK generated $3.3m for $13.5m and second place, and South Korea $2.5m for $11.1m. The tentpole ranks number one in France on $2.4m for $7.3m, and in Australia grossed $2.4m for $7.2m. Brazil added $2m for $6.9m, while Russia took in $2m for a market total of $9.3m. Taiwan added $1.5m for $6m, Malaysia $1.5m for $4.8m, and Spain $987,000 for $3.2m. Vietnam grossed $1.2m to beat Beauty And The Beast and reached $5.3m, ranking as the second biggest film of all time in the territory behind Furious 7. Kong will roar into China and Japan this week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobSaibot Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 (edited) I'm not expecting it to break out in Japan until I hear otherwise. Godzilla made $30 million there, yes. But that was the first Godzilla film in 10 years. And he's arguably an easier sell than King Kong. Not sure how Kong: Skull Island will be received there. I'm hoping it cracks $20 million, but I'm worried it will only make numbers like Pacific Rim ($14-15 million). Perhaps my fears are unfounded, though.

picores Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Huge opening from China, 150m very well in play there. So 350m+ and 500+ WW will definitely happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
