Fake Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 THG was a big hit in UK (and AUS) but only moderately successful elsewhere.Prometheus could do something similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimmyRiggins Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Because the book is most well known in those countries, and the US, simple as that.Prometheus has none of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lab276 Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 That's for sure. The IMAX in Sydney has taken away it's midnight session for Prometheus. No, it's still there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 I don't see why Prometheus can't do well in Non-english speaking countries too.France/Germany/Brazil/Mexico all have the potential to put up some big numbers.Not sure about Japan, but I think it could do well there if it catches on to audiences.

Prometheus looks like a big spectacle type film that can catch on everywhere overseas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 (edited) Prometheus will be big. The buzz is building in Portugal. I can see it pulling 300M OS. His only enemy is the EURO 2012. Edited May 17, 2012 by CJohn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robertron Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 No, it's still there. It was added back. I got an email from IMAX last night saying the session times had been changed, but it was definitely gone last time I checked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 disagree. Prometheus looks like a big spectacle type film that can catch on everywhere overseasIt also is R-rated so that means no big business in Asia.I think 300M OS is the range if it can do 200M+ in US, and that would be an excellent result for this film.

DeeCee Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 It was added back.I got an email from IMAX last night saying the session times had been changed, but it was definitely gone last time I checked.Same here. I looked, the midnight session was gone, and now it's opening a day earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be MA15+ in Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robertron Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 R rated in the US doesn't mean the same everywhere else in the world. It will be MA15+ in Australia.And thats going to severely limit its potential.$25m at ABSOLUTE ABSOLUTE MOST!Frankly, Im thinking around $15m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeCee Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 (edited) Prometheus had a special mention and add during State of Origin tonight. Massive audience would have seen it especially in NSW and QLD. Edited May 23, 2012 by DeeCee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totem Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 This and Huntsman are the two most interesting films for me in a while.I'm thinking 170m atm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
