peludo Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 20 hours ago, peludo said: Spain I am tracking presales in the biggest theater of the country. I do not have too many movies to compare to. The most similar film I have data is FFH, which opened to €3.8m ($4.3m with current ER) in 2019. Presales are 25% ahead of FFH at the same point, so The Batman would open to about $5m OW, maybe a bit more. That would be really good for a SH film. An even better data is that ratio of tickets sold on Saturday or Sunday relative to whole weekend is higher for The Batman than for FFH. It could mean to be less frontloaded and... maybe better legs? FFH Friday: 70% Saturday: 23% Sunday: 7% The Batman Friday: 57% Saturday: 30% Sunday: 13% Presales 32% ahead of FFH at the same point. That would give a €5m OW. Really huge. 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it will be released tomorrow. Very few films are released before Friday here. The main movies site in Spanish, www.filmaffinity.com, has a 7.8 score for The Batman, but as happens on iMDB or other similar sites, the first scores are irrelevant because of hardcore fans. It only has 145 votes. Just to compare, TDK has over 150k votes. We have to wait. Said this and for reference, anything over 7.0 on that site is really good.

I understand that the opening day was a holiday in Korea though, hence the big drop on the 2nd day, plus Korea is having one of its worst weeks of COVID. Situation may differ from country to country, but to be fair - Some Asian markets have less sophisticated tastes hence may not appreciate this film. 4 hours ago, MG10 said: At this point I'd say it will gross 70/80M at max in China, 100M is probably a dream Depends on Maoyan score, Above 9.0 then 100m is very very possible.

charlie Jatinder Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 Even though TDKR was big at Indian BO, the first Batman film to do big, it was still major cities phenomenon. I guess it was more Western appealing and hence did well with only English speaking audience. Joker WB didn't even bother dubbing and it did $11M+ here, not much less than Captain Marvel. I think that may be the case elsewhere in Asia. Marvel has made more universal movies over the year while DC sort of leaned West, barring Aquaman & Aquaman did very well in this part of the world. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has the same energy as the "To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty" meme. Maybe they just found it boring, even the good reviews touch how looong it was, lenght would not be a common issue on reviews if it was all out entertaining for 3 hours.

SK probably finish 10-12. Japan 12. SEA with at least 17m. I don't even count India, Taiwan and Hongkong yet. Agrew with EMEA, DOM and Australia+New Zealand. While Latin America no way it only get just 40m total. Mexico at least 20-25 and Brazil also probably 20-25. Already cover those number.

Maybe what I said came across the wrong way, and I apologise for that if that is the case. I am in Singapore so what I said is also referencing people around me; so I do not mean it as an insult. in 2008, the highest grossing film here in Singapore was Kungfu Panda, while in many other countries - it was The Dark Knight. Even the Amazing Spiderman did similar numbers as Dark Knight rises here. Transformers also did very well here. Tricky thing is that people here sometimes prefer movies that are popcorn flicks more than movies than requires a lot of thinking and understanding. There is also the language barrier, English may not be the first language for many countries in Asia and action translates better compared to deeper plots. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You probably worded it wrong but in Indonesia people also have around the same kind of taste. Also translation is horrible sometimes like in the Batman. In fact Batman audience response isnt that bad. A bit higher than Joker, but probably has less rewatchable value. Biggest factor though is Covid restrictions that limit mall attendace and theatre capacity .If situation is normal,The Batman will easily get $15-20m OW in SEA alone.

teard1972 Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 I think the WW tallies will demonstrate that after TDKR, WB hasn’t done anything to nurture a potentially lucrative international market for their biggest DC ip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
