Shantal Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 HK is one freakish market. TA is going to triple IM2's opening. That kind of makes you wander what TDKR can do. Great. So in TDKR OS thread one can speculate what such a market can do for the film's box office performance. There is no need to post in multiple threads where people are happy with TA's results so far and rain on their parade. We understood you don't believe in TA potential, so maybe you should go and discuss that in whichever under/over thread you like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullbuster Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 TA's success is well beyond expectations, it's beyond the superhero movie, it's a master piece :DSo I'm sure the birds of ill omen will be wrong, they don't think TA can be a success in China and Russia, but the movie will beat expectations there, again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't always agree with RTX's opinions and taste in films, but I would rather hear what he says than an echo chamber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said, if you had read carefully, it's about how many times you state your option, not about having one which everyone is this forum is welcomed to express, even you and I.

Fullbuster Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Biggest opening day ever in Iceland Certainly one of the smallest market (300,000 inhabitants), but it's always a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shantal Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 (edited) I like the sound of that Throughout the smaller Latin American territories opening Thursday, the Friday opening was the best ever Disney and Marvel opening day. Mexico represented the second highest opening day of all time. Brazil was the third highest opening day of all time. In the UK, the 2 days to date have exceeded the opening weekends of previous Marvel films Thor, Iron Man, and Captain America. Taiwan was the second highest Friday of all time. Hong Kong was the highest non-holiday Friday result of all time. India opened on Friday to the third biggest opening day for all Hollywood titles ever and highest ever for a Disney and Marvel opening day. Malaysia opened Friday to the #1 biggest opening day of all-time. Vietnam opened Friday to the 2nd biggest opening day of all time. And Iceland opened Friday to the #1 biggest opening day of all-time. http://www.deadline.com/2012/04/marvels-the-avengers-breaking-records-overseas-already-after-todays-early-release/ Edited April 28, 2012 by Shantal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Marvel’s ‘The Avengers’ $17.1M Breaking Records Overseas BREAKING… THURSDAY AM, 3RD UPDATE: More countries are reporting grosses. The superhero certain blockbuster doesn’t come out in the U.S. until May 4th. But my sources say early box office estimates are coming out today from 10 of the 42 territories where Marvel‘s The Avengers from Disney was released today for the start of its international run. And the hotly anticipated actioner is already shattering box office records overseas. It earned in U.S. dollar estimates $17.1M from 10 countries: including $6.2M in Australia, $2.7M in Italy, $2.9 in France, $1.3M in the Philippines, $1.3M in Taiwan, $800K in New Zealand, and $900K others. With just over a week until the U.S. release, MovieTickets.com reports the superhero actioner ”is pre-selling more tickets for the upcoming release than the online ticketing company sold for Captain America, Thor, Iron Man 2, and Iron Man combined at the same point in the sales cycle for each film. In fact, pre-sales are over 1 1/2-times that of these past Marvel films combined sales at the same point in the sales cycle”. MovieTickets.com reports that 56% of Avengers pre-sales are from fans wanting to see the film in 3D. And nearly 37% are from moviegoers buying tickets to see the film in IMAX 3D. Two nations, Australia and New Zealand, having were holidays: ANZAC Day, so that helped boost box office. Australia’s opening day is the second-highest opening of all time there behind only the final Harry Potter (A$7M). It is also the highest Marvel opening day ever, 214% ahead of Iron Man 2 (A$1.8M Thursday opening) and 136% ahead of The Dark Knight (A$2.5M Thursday opening), and the highest Disney opening day ever for a Disney film. The pic playing in Taiwan is the biggest industry Wednesday opening ever, the biggest opening day of 2012 (173% above Battleship) and the second-biggest opening day for any Marvel film (after only Spider-Man 3). In New Zealand, pic scored highest grossing opening day ever, beating Harrry Potter finale (NZ$975L). The pic isnt even pen yet in China, Russia, or japan. The Avengers is the first Marvel film to be marketed and distributed by Disney, so this is great news for the studio. Don't forget links.

Fullbuster Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I like the sound of thathttp://www.deadline....-early-release/It's just marvellous Do you understand it's for a Marvel movie with superheroes and typically US? Quality and ambition are rewarded, it's bolstering for the future : Iron Man 3,Thor 2 and Captain America 2 will be boosted, and they will boost The Avengers 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
