baumer Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Why? Are they not reportet the same way?Intouchables could be top 10.Because Mojo, although it pretends to be on top of everything, still has a lot of little bugs to work out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudolf Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 (edited) If they have to make a remake, I suggest to cast an Hispano-American actor for Driss.

pinocchio Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 You always care that people don't sleep enough. It's just a dirty trick. I use the TimeScroller widget on my Macs that tells me it's now 2:53 AM in Bejing.And if it's 1 PM local time in Bejing it's 7 AM local time here in Switzerland and so on.So, I know exactly when Lab or Baumer and so on have to go to bed!

sgrave Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 25x multiple :oJust wow... there's nothing more you can say about this beast.PS- French Canada alone can produce $2.5m OW? Impressive...I can guarantee you that Intouchables won't have an OW of 2,5 M$ Only the Harry Potter movies opened in the 2 M$ range! The movie opens this Friday and there's tons of ads, talking about the phenomenon.... Something between 700 000-800 000$ with great legs would be very, very good for a movie from France. Anything over 1 000 000$ for the opening would bluff me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebomb Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 Updated table in first post. Also, it increased in Taiwan in its 2nd weekend by more than 100%. $73,515 2nd weekend (+108.4%) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudolf Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 (edited) In Spain Intouchables has defeated the BattleShip in its 6th week http://boxofficeinto...-la-1ere-place/It seems it had to settle for 2nd in the end.

I bet if it was the other way around (white actor cast for black dude) there would be murder on the streets. Can't believe this TV movie of the week drivel has made so much money.

Although, considering your name, there is probably a lot we disagree about. Edited April 16, 2012 by Tower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anaotchan Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I agree that a hispanic character would be the appropriate cultural translation for Omar Sy's character. Americans would interpret the story differently if a black person played the character, they would immediately see the movie as being about race relations.But in this story, what matters is not the skin colour of the character, it's the fact that he comes from a poor immigrant minority. Which is why it was ok, I think, to have Sy play him. The "real" guy was an Algerian immigrant, Sy plays an African immigrant - in social terms, it's really equivalent, in France.

Rudolf Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 In Quebec Intouchables only had a few cinemas and $325 909 OW (http://www.cinoche.com/actualites/box-office-quebecois-folies-de-graduation-la-reunion-devant-intouchables/index.html)That was 2nd in French-Canada, would have been 18th DOM (BOM did not report it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
