Bluebomb Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 I don't think English dubs are that popular. If anything it'll be how pinocchio suggests; a limited sub release and a remake later on.The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. The 2011 release did better everywhere else except for Europe although Russia was a notable exception.This remake will make the material more accessible to non-European markets.

lab276 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Yes, so not a dub. No one would ever watch an English dub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJohn Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 €1.35mNot bad.boxoffice.es was predicting way less than that. It was a breakout hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinocchio Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 It wasn't even able to beat John Carter in Spain?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 John Carter flopped in Spain but had 3x more copies than Intouchables. That was enough to pull the victory. I am sure it JC will fall behind it next weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More people watched the English dub of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo than the original OS.Which agrees with what I said earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 This should just be called Intouchables box office.... OS is its entire market, who needs the US?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you referring to the David Fincher remake? There's a difference between a dub and a remake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndustriousAngel Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Intouchables may end up with more $ WW than John Carter without even playing in North America. And that on a budget of not even 15million$; the numbers are in fact very similar to last winter's "Black Swan" and "The King's Speech" which also made more than 300 million US$ worldwide on a 15 million budget.

Bluebomb Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 I think what's even more impressive than that is it hasn't even opened in 1 Asian territory. All of its gross has come from Europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusader Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Hmm should we expect much from Asia anyway ? This is a thoroughly European film I don't think it will catch on much outside of Europe Still an amazing run ... I wish someone would give it a proper release in US say like Disney does with Miyazaki movies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
