Ugh. Apparently this is 60% market. Removing China, that point towards $50mn OW. Need 4x legs, which may be hard as this was inflated weekend by VD.

[Purple Minion]

Deadline: Leading the charge on the Hedgehog was Mexico with $6.7M from 895 locations, followed by the UK with $6.2M from 616, France’s $4.3M at 622, Germany’s $3.3M from 475 and Brazil’s $3M from 629. Sonic still has Russia and Japan to come while the China release has been shelved for the moment owing to the coronavirus epidemic.

 

Other openings: Australia ($2.8M), Spain ($2M), Italy ($1.9M), Ukraine ($1M) and Colombia ($1M).

It's important getting a good domestic performance. Regarding Sonic's domestic performance, it's going to be good for a VG movie. 

 

Overseas numbers aren't bad, considering that the movie still has some markets to get released. Deadline said movie has been released in 40 markets. 43 million from 40 markets isn't bad at all. This movie doesn't even have China to boost its overseas grosses.

Dont know what people expected for this....that look very solid openings all across. Shouldnt have problem grossing over 200m OS, maybe 250m if China joins.

I doubt it does 200 mil OS with that opening. More like 140-150 mil.

Yeah true but obviously Pokemon is exception in japan. The brand is huge but it still only did 27 Million

 

sonic probably will do 10-15 million

I'd be surprised if it turned into a massive hit, but something around 30M like Pikachu or the 2014 Godzilla is possible.

Great hold! $180M OS? 

[Omni]

Guess a WW-Ch total gross above Detective Pikachu is close to locked, Or at least it would be if there wasn't a potential pandemic wandering around Europe.

great drop

[Purple Minion]

Screendaily: Sonic The Hedgehog grossed $2.9m from 58 markets to stand at $160.7m following a 76% drop that is unsurprising given the closure of or reduced capacity in the world’s cinemas due to the coronavirus pandemic. China and Japan release dates had not been set at time of writing.
