Unfortunately, the curse of the live-action anime/manga adaptation continues in Japan. On 3/5/2019 at 9:48 AM, AJG said: That guys post was nuts. Japan is really not that fussed about anime outside of long running kids shows. $150m???? 2 hours ago, Agafin said: Yeah lol, that was insanely optimistic prediction. I don't think there's any movie in Japan which we can say is locked to do $150m. In fact, $100m can only be considered as a "lock" for Frozen 2 and Weathering with you. China and Japan combined won't cross $150. Edited March 6, 2019 by a2k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinity War only added another $3 million after its extension for comparison, and that was a much bigger film. Alita might add $1-2 million total for its second month. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KP1025 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 That's a 71.3% drop from last weekend. Not unexpected given the opening of Captain Marvel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over a month means before Alita released in the US. Pretty sure you were parroting billie back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimmyRiggins Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Regardless, a 400 M + finish for Alita is, I feel, a fantastic result. Very few people out there would have ever predicted it would do this well and yet, here we are. Break even or not, it's out of our hands nor do we know how much they will be happy with, fingers crossed for a sequel, the audience is there, a new life awaits on home video, the potential for an increase on a sequel is strong imo. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
