JohnnY Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Do you live in Rio? No, and never been to Rock in Rio lol It is. But I believe the whole WOM also helped it. The Twilight WOM only happened after the DVD release. TFIOS is lucky. I watched it, It wasn't that good. I still prefer A Walk to Remember. And, I agree with you on this -> "But good movies don't always make huge gross, popular movies do". Definitely, the book is popular but not on a Twilight/Harry Potter level, I'm sure many people got interested in this movie without knowing anything about the book.

Fullbuster Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) New list : This list is about Brazil vs Mexico. Mexico and Brazil are the most populated countries in Latin America and the most influent, Brazil has 201 million inhabitants while Mexico has 118 million of them, and their economy are in competition (Mexico has the upper hand currently), one of them is the most populated Portuguese-speaking country while the other is the most populated Spanish-speaking country. This rivalry can be seen in terms of box office numbers as well, where they have a similar size (Mexico has a BO market size which is worth $0.93B while Brazil's BO market is worth $0.83B). Mexico has more admissions than Brazil but ticket prices are undoubtedly cheaper that's why they have a similar size.So what about movies? It's pretty tight actually, that reflects the fact they have a similar size. The Avengers Brazil : 63.9m Mexico : 61.7m Iron Man 3 Brazil : 47.9m Mexico : 48.6m Captain America 2 Brazil : 28.3m Mexico : 25.7m Avatar Brazil : 58.2m Mexico : 44.2m Frozen Brazil : 21.7m Mexico : 25.7m Wreck-It Ralph Brazil : 21.4m Mexico : 14.2m Ice Age 4 Brazil : 44.5m Mexico : 46.8m Despicable Me 2 Brazil : 35.5m Mexico : 47.7m X-Men DOFP Brazil : 29.2m Mexico : 24.6m Twilight BD2 Brazil : 54.2m Mexico : 29.6m Maleficent Brazil : 33m Mexico : 46m Monsters University Brazil : 16.5m Mexico : 37.6m Edited July 29, 2014 by Fullbuster 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbuster Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 Twiight, TFIOS, 50 Shades... more or less the same audience, so it has a lot of potential here. I think 50 Shades has a bigger potential audience because a lot of women in their 40s or 50s love these books, so it can bring the Twilight public and some more. I see this movie as a contender for the top 10 all-time in Brazil (it would need 36m for that) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullbuster Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 From what I read Brazilians seem pretty excited about The Expendables 3, we should be surprised by this one. The Expendables in Brazil = 4.7m and The Expendables 2 = 16.4m, that's a big jump The Expendables 3 should be around 20-25m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catching fire did only 17M here and 50shades can do 30M... I knew it would be huge there, I wouldn't be surprised if Brazil becomes its biggest OS market.

I see this movie as a contender for the top 10 all-time in Brazil (it would need 36m for that) Yeah, but I don't know if mature women here care about this book, it really does seem to appeal more to the Twilight fanbase, which is much youger here (15 ~ 35 years old). Another similarity to Twilight is that among younger people the book series have a great amount of haters, it's not praised like TFIOS, but I don't think this will affect box office, it didn't hurt Twilight. I really don't know what to expect, but it definitely has potential. Edited July 29, 2014 by JohnnY 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xSabrinax Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 This is terrible... Catching fire did only 17M here and 50shades can do 30M... I think THG is not a huge sucess in here, simply because is not romance. Girls want romance (TFIOS and Twilight benefit). And hot guys (The Twilight PLUS). The Hunger Games has nothing of it. FSOG on the other hand has bofh of it. But we don't know, is not exactly for teens. And the book is more criticized than Twilight, even though is the most sold. I'm very curious to know how is going the be the run of FSOG. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't know what to expect, but it definitely has potential. If mature women are caring in the US and Europe it's probably the case in Brazil too, in some way. However mature women rarely show their excitement like young women do, it's a more diskreet audience, and for some of these women it's something embarrassing to admit.
