juni78ukr Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 (edited) Everyone expected Cloud Atlas will be big. And everyone thought John Carter will clear billion RUB. But it fell short. The same about MI3. Nothing surprising here. Edited December 31, 2012 by juni78ukr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juni78ukr Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Cloud Atlas? Expected?Sure. Guys from tremendously popular Matrix trilogy, fantasy elements, well-known actors. Plus strong advertising and nearly 1500 screens. From the very beginning it was positioned as a blockbuster here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Gittes Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Hobbit can still make 50 and perhaps even approach 60. Holidays are up until January 8, cinemas will be packed like clockwork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbuster Posted January 1, 2013 Author Share Posted January 1, 2013 (edited) Only one $40M+ ?When I created this thread my 2012 forecasts were too optimistic, so I try to be more cautious and realistic.Only 4 movies have the potential to pass $40m IMO : Oz, Monsters University, Iron Man 3 and The Hobbit 2.And it's unlikely all of them will pass this threshold.I think the Russian BO will have a good growth in 2013, but this growth will be more widespread, so we won't have records or anything like that, but we'll have more movies beyond $20m or $30m. So Hollywood will be happy Edited January 1, 2013 by Fullbuster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbuster Posted January 1, 2013 Author Share Posted January 1, 2013 and The Last Stand?To be honest I didn't know this movie, but given Russians like action movies I can see it around 18m, like Olive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Life of Pi should do significantly more than 13m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullbuster Posted January 2, 2013 Author Share Posted January 2, 2013 Life of Pi should do significantly more than 13m.It's Russia and it's not an action/animated movie, so I try to be cautious on that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullbuster Posted January 2, 2013 Author Share Posted January 2, 2013 I expect $8m for Les Misérables but it's really a guess, I have no idea of its potential there, are Russians like musicals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullbuster Posted January 2, 2013 Author Share Posted January 2, 2013 I said $35m for Oz because Russians like this kind of movie, it can surprise us, I'm really optimistic about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juni78ukr Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 (edited) I wish someone would have numbers this week. But still nothing. Some people say Life of Pi is doing pretty good but still far from any significant breakout. Overall grosses are not bad but they are spreading between six or seven movies. And most of them are local films. Edited January 2, 2013 by juni78ukr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juni78ukr Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 According to kinometro both Hobbit and Pi grossed slightly less than 2m yesterday. Around 29m total by now. Cant see more than 45-47m final gross. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant see more than 45-47m final gross.Strange...IMDB says the release of Pi is on January 3rd????Hobbit's gross will be close to The Avengers, it's a sure sign that The Avengers was a big success in Russia :DLife of Pi, I expected $13m in Russia, I guess that won't be very far from this number Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
