Viktor Vilotijevic Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 I would love for Americans to keep on watching it in theaters, but I have a feeling it’s going to be a short lived Oscar effect. Hoping for top 10 next weekend with 2-3 million and after that 30-40% weekend drops, because the film is already out everywhere. But when it’s all said and done in the States, 44-45 million $ should be realistic. So, with Japan still going strong and hopefully UK, now that I put the numbers together, 200 million globally shouldn’t be that hard to achieve.

sgrave Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Really happy for Parasite, in my Top 3 of best movies of the year. But someone will have to explain me what's the point to have a Best International movie and a Best Picture categorie if a movie can win both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But someone will have to explain me what's the point to have a Best International movie and a Best Picture categorie if a movie can win both Best International movie is for movies that are produced outside of hollywood, in a non english language, which does not require a release in USA. It is also selected and submitted by the country from the where the movie is and is generally considered to be an award for the whole movie industry of the country rather than just the movie (makes sense since a country sends only what it thinks is the best movie from that country) Best movie is for any movie released (for at least a week I think) in USA (LA). It can be a non hollywood produced movie, it can be non english. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Been a fan of Bong for a long time. A #Bonghive as our forum calls it. So happy that he basically swept all the big awards last night. Personally, I think he had done better works than Parasite, but of the nominees this year, Parasite is still easily the best out of them so well deserved. Hopefully, this monumental win put him on the map for more people to check out his works. Looking forward to future projects from Bong. Such a great speech when he won Best Director, so down to earth and likable. Really love his shoutout to Quentin for having been rec-ing his movies for years.

Joel M Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 The trajectory of this movie from Cannes to now both in awards and boxoffice is still unbelievable to me. Truly a lightning in a bottle situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valonqar Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 I hope they release it wide. it's at 165M WW. Could it add 35M for 200M? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorddemaxus Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Finally watched Bong's Director speech (went to get something to eat right before Best Director was presented and missed his whole speech during the live telecast). Holy shit, it's probably the best speech I've seen since I started watching the Academy Awards. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
