dinayingmixxx Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Gladiators or Rome released here through our small independent distributors Luxor. They usually buy and release european films with moderate box office potential. Sometimes they release 2nd rated animated films from Europe or Asia like this one Gladiators of Rome is already the 3rd highest grossing among their releases. Only Upside Down and german Animals United grossed more. Midweek grosses for children films are very low here during the school year. Last week it grossed only 180-190k monday-wednesday. So there's no updates on GOR yet? Could u report the Mid week Estimates for top 10 if u don't mind? And I just find out an interesting thing, there's no Russian movie on top 10 this February.

juni78ukr Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Russian disaster drama Metro got so far really good press. It opens this Thursday on 1200-1400 screens. Should easily win the weekend. Rentrak do not provide numbers for Beautiful Creatures, Safe Haven and Gladiators of Rome. Those independent distributors also do not give us any info. Only weekends and sometimes Thursday numbers. Also besides Die Hard and Beautiful Creatures daily grosses are very low this week. 93 + 95k The Impossible 67 + 74k Les Miserables 63 + 66k Chinese Zodiac 48 + 49k Parker 44 + 46k Django 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This week kinometro prediction http://www.kinometro.ru/forecast/show/name/metro_vozglavit_prokat less than 4m for metpo? Too low for 1200 screens opening. and only 2.1m for die hard? I am speechless about this prediction. Edited February 21, 2013 by dinayingmixxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juni78ukr Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Too many people already have strong distrust towards russian films. It's hard to fight against it. Last week was a bit inflated with Valentine's Day + Die Hard5 got really bad world of mouth. The best case is around 60% drop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad,die hard 5's second weekend BO would just equal to the second weekend BO of Chinese zodiac, it is almost a failure for a mega blockbuster.

juni78ukr Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Zero Dark Thirty is doing awful business. On par with Lincoln or maybe even worse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbuster Posted February 23, 2013 Author Share Posted February 23, 2013 Zero Dark Thirty is doing awful business. On par with Lincoln or maybe even worse. It's disappointed, this movie deserves better, and it's not as all-American as Lincoln, and it's not the story of a President, it's something recent and interesting. Russians disappoint me on this one..I didn't expect a success but as much as Lincoln? No way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
