Highest grossing movies of all-time in the European Union (+UK)

Just make it entire Europe no? Including Russia.

 

Yeah my initial idea was to also include also Russia, Ukraine, Turkey and Serbia but then I realized that Russia has become a big market only in more recent years with Hollywood films often reaching 30 or 40 million dollars, while only 15/20 years ago there were important movies grossing like 5/10M or less (or there was missing data)

 

So I had the idea of making a thread only for the European Union, since the countries that are part of it have fairly close relationships and a certain unity, so why not 🤷‍♂️

I wanted to compare the top 20 EU+UK with the top 20 USA+Canada (link), obviously not for the amount of money grossed (also because we would practically compare the gross of 20 American movies in Europe with their gross in the US itself...), but for genres and franchises

 

In particular in Europe we can see 4 Harry Potter films, 3 of Lord of the Rings and 2 for the Hobbit, James Bond and Star Wars. In the US on the other hand we can see 6 Star Wars films plus 6 of superheroes (vs only Endgame in Europe), not to mention that Age of Ultron missed the top 20 for only $2 million. There are also 5 animated films and Disney remakes, while in Europe there are only The Lion King 2019 and Ice Age 3

 

So here is the European top 5 of some "less present" genres:

 

Animated top 5

 

Ice Age 3 - 410M

Frozen 2 - 335M

Minions - 325M

Ice Age 4 - 305M

Shrek 2 - 300M 

 

Superhero top 5

 

Endgame - 420M

No Way Home - 300/325M

Infinity War - 315M

Joker - 290M

The Dark Knight Rises - 260M

 

 

Star Wars top 5

 

The Force Awakens - 585M

The Last Jedi - 417M

Rise of Skywalker - 320M

The Phantom Menace - 270M

Rogue One - 265M

I don't know what exactly you are leaving out, but No Way Home will be $400M+. The entire Europe will be $461M Approx. Russia & Ukraine making $56M of that. Others like Serbia, Kosovo, Bosnia, Montenegro, Albania and Macedonia are less than $1.75M, leaving behind $403M.

 

Ah no 300/325M wasn't a prediction, this was the the provisional number updated to more than a week ago and with several countries still missing

Does anyone know how much has the Lion King (1994) grossed in the various European countries and in particular in the UK? Because it was a huge success but apart from France, Italy, Germany and Spain there is very few data I can find...

UK - £35.333

Poland - 2,923,938

Switzerland - 372,815

Sweden - 2,025,470

Denmark - 1,009,411

Italy -  3,548,503 [This needs to be extrapolated which gives us roughly 6.679m + it earned 531k (460k without extrapolating) in 3D/IMAX]

Spain -  6,333,072 

Germany - 11.33m

France - 10.135m

Europa, box office 2021 al +42% - E-DUESSE.IT (article in Italian and charts in English)

 

I found this article about the European box office in 2021, the tickets sold in EU+UK were 400M and the total gross was of 2.95 billion euros, therefore the average ticket costs 7.4 euros (or 8.3 dollars)

 

The highest grossing movies in the whole Europe were, in order, No Way Home, No Time to Die, Fast & Furious 9, Venom 2 and Dune

 

However by doing some quick calculations Dune should be ahead of Venom, which is in the top 5 especially thanks to his success in Russia. Maybe the ranking is for number of tickets sold 🤷‍♂️

I finally added No Time To Die (which grossed more than 360 million), while for No Way Home I'll wait for the end of its run. For The Batman on the other hand I expect more or less 200 million, we'll see

Some time ago I predicted about 200M for The Batman in EU+UK (when my WW prediction was still 850M...), but unfortunately it won't be able to reach it and therefore enter this top 10

 

It's a real shame because this is a great film, but probably too long for possible re-watches by the fans or possible visions by the undecided/not interested public

I didn't check very accurately but it was something above $150M and well below the $200M, let's say definitely higher than the worldwide total of Morbius 😅

No Way Home finally added!

 

In the meantime Lumiere has finally updated the number of tickets sold in the European continent during 2020 and 2021 (link), No Way Home sold 27M tickets in EU+UK in December only, while the first Spider-Man for example sold 33M tickets in 2002 and therefore it has certainly been surpassed

 

No time to Die on the other hand sold 36M tickets which is less than Skyfall (46M) and Spectre (40M) but still a very good result
