Fullbuster Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 You already put top 25 in the first post. Battleship landed between Clash of the Titans and Fast Five. Quite a strong company.Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger TidesShrek Forever AfterAvatarOnly these movies had more than $20m OW in Russia Tough task for The Avengers, but I'm sure Ice Age 4 can do it.

I already said that Saturday, May, 5, is a working day in Russia. So the opening weekend will be surely deflated. But then Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday are national holidays. It needs to gross as much as it can in those four days Sunday till Wednesday. After the holidays everything will drop like a stone no matter what. And a week after that new strong releases will smash everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fmpro Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I just hope Avengers breaks top 20 here.All time OW that is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juni78ukr Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 (edited) I just hope he can beat John Carter's OW, it's more likely I think.Even this will require a big miracle. John Carter opened with the all-time biggest opening day on another national holiday March, 8. People had three days free of work instead of one this time. But after that Monday and Tuesday should be really HUGE. These two days will definitely bring more than entire 4day weekend.

juni78ukr Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 nice cheetah!Are this working Saturdays ordered by the government, or do the companies decide them as it is the case with us?They are ordered by the government for all public workers and recommended for private comanies. It's a very common practice to make a better use for holidays. So three Saturdays in a row will be working days. But Monday April, 30 will be a holiday instead and russians will get three days out of work Sunday-Monday-Tuesday instead of Saturday-Sunday-Tuesday.Next week will be the same. Saturday, May, 5 and Saturday, May, 12, are working days for Monday and Tuesday, May 7 and 8. And four days from May 6 to May 9 will be holidays.
