John Marston Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 taking a look actually it's actually not that impressive. It opened with 78M while opening in every country except Japan. John Carter opened with 70M and that was without Japan AND China. So yeah, it looks like 250M might be the ceiling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CassLX Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I'm glad this is bombing. It might make even less than John Carter WW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJohn Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 Avatar inflated the B.O. of COTT.It would have been big anyway. But yes, 3D and Sam Worthington helped a lot. None of them is big right now as it was 2 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BK007 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 That's what I meant by not giving it a chance.That's stupid. He knows his taste better than you do. Better than Clash? That's not exactly a high standard. Glad that this hunk of junk has failed to outdo its predecessor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Some more market figures from SD: It opened top in Russia on $14m from 1,161 screens for 18% of the total international weekend. China is projected to open top and results will become available mid-week. Elsewhere Wrath Of The Titans opened top in Mexico on $5m from 1,434, top in Brazil on $3.9m from 522, second in the UK on $3.5m from 1,053, top in France on $3.3m from 455, third in Germany on $2.7m from 535 and top in Spain on $2.6m from 540. The film ranked third in Australia on $2.1m from 333, top in Italy on $1.7m from 361, top in Taiwan on $1.3m from 140 and top in Argentina on $1.1m from 153. Chinese opening may not have been included in the 78M figure. I think there was a similar case for a WB film a few months back but I don't remember exactly which one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fake Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Blanketing the foreign theatrical circuit over the weekend, Wrath of the Titans easily displaced The Hunger Games as the No. 1 box office attraction overseas, opening to $76.1 million – nearly $2 million less than Sunday’s projection – at 14,600 venues in 60 territories. That’s good news for distributor Warner Bros. since the 3D action-fantasy sequel’s 2010 predecessor, Clash of the Titans, drew $332 million from overseas theaters -- more than double its comparable U.S. and Canada box office total. Like Clash, the sequel’s foreign takings are essential to its worldwide box office success. The special-effects-laden extrapolation from Greek mythology with Sam Worthington returning as Perseus, Liam Neeson as Zeus and Ralph Fiennes as Hades took the No. 1 spot in 46 markets, notably in nine of the top 12 international territories including Korea ($4.3 million from 621 sites), France ($3.1 million from 455 venues) and Italy ($1.8 million from 361 situations). Strongest territories for Wrath were Russia ($12.8 million from 1,161 venues representing 18% of the total weekend foreign take), Mexico ($5.2 million from 1,434 sites) and Brazil ($4.1 million at 522 situations). The film was ranked No. 1 in 11 markets across Latin America. Wrath’s weekend’s foreign take is nearly two-and-a-half- times its day-and-date, No. 2 domestic opening gross ($34.2 million). Internationally, IMAX reported weekend Wrath takings of $4 million from 176 screens – or $22,000 per site – with Russia contributing about $55,000 per-screen at 19 IMAX locations. Dropped in Russia, but I am glad the decrease came mainly from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
