Fullbuster Posted September 11, 2017 Author Share Posted September 11, 2017 I'm glad, the exchange rate finally back to its levels from the beginning of the year after a bumpy ride, it's going the right way. If that goes on then Justice League, Thor 3 and Star Wars will strongly benefit from it. About Star Wars 8 : remember than the Brazilian Real increased by 25% over the USD since Star Wars 7 so even if it decreases in local currency the number in USD is likely to be good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool, will try to watch it. I recently watched an amazing Brazilian film in Cannes last year - it's called ACQUARIUS Fascinating film but not too commercial.

Mockingjay Raphael Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 IT opened at 1.1m in ADMs, just for comparison: GOTG2 opened at 1.2m, despite having a lot of advantages over IT. I wouldn't be surprised if IT end selling more tickets than GOTG2, it just needs to not drop like a rock in the next weeks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easy to have a significant Box Office when the movie has quality, GOTG2 doesn't have this advantage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your statement would be more receivable if IT was far higher (at least 92%) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the graphic doesn't mention it isn't measuring the GDP of actual countries, but rather the land that corresponds to modern political boundaries. This is why the UK or Spain are so low back when they were giant empires, and why Italy or Germany are on the graph many years before they existed.

But still, in a way it shows the true weight of these empires without their colonies, that's valuable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I also love Disney movies, I talked so much about Moana but I guess you weren't there, you only see what you want to see I'm also very interested in Star Wars 8 and Jumanji, but you didn't see that as well. As usual you judge people without knowing anything about them, and that's the same attitude from Raphael and Efialtes given they liked your post. Don't be stupid guys, be smart.
