What is wrong with this? Nothing wrong, but one would asume bigger figures. Maybe they like it, but numbers say they do not love it. The 3rd opening of the year being just in March is not specially impressive. BatB is a tale placed in France with French characters. With that premise this film should make massive numbers and it is just fine. For some reason, France prefer another stories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could be surprised but most people here have no idea this tale takes place in France, and before 2014 I didn't even know it And there are so many movies taking place in France thanks to a strong local movie industry that the fact it's in France is unlikely to sway anyone. You can appeal to Chinese with Hollywood movies taking place in China, not in France. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is just that surprises me that a so iconical story does not make impressive figures like in other near countries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poseidon Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 It's on its way to 4m admissions, beating pretty much every european country but Great Britain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

France sells 200m admissions per year, being, BY FAR, the biggest European market in terms of admissions. 4m admissions is average for a blockbuster. BatB is going to sell the same amount of admissions in Spain and the market size is half of France. Decent number from France, sure, but nothing impressive.

kswiston Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 So, probably $1.1B+ from holdovers. Assuming Japan takes to the film, at least $1.2B WW is looking good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Durden Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 As they approach $900M worldwide, Disney’s Beauty And The Beast had a 3rd overseas frame of $66.5M for a running cume of $480.8M at the international box office — all before Japan attends the ball on April 21. This offshore weekend was a 45% drop. http://deadline.com/2017/04/beauty-and-the-beast-kong-skull-island-ghost-in-the-shell-boss-baby-china-international-box-office-1202058460/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PanaMovie Posted April 3, 2017 Author Share Posted April 3, 2017 625M+ holdovers? 50-100M from Japan? Is 1.3B still possible? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think it already needs over $150m from Japan to reach 1.3b. Probably more. Really hard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
