Everyone already knows over here what Netflix is, we adapt to English names just fine. Maybe it's for Portugal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbuster Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 $2m with only 304 screens is really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlborn Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Well, I watched it today and absolutely adored it. It came on only one screen and only one show time in my town, it was about 40% full, everyone seemed to love it by the applauses it got after it ended but yeah, it'll probably be gone by next weekend, sadly... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, it is. I don't live in a big city though, hell we only have one movie theater at the one local mall, so I was kinda expecting it wouldn't have mass appeal out here and I seem to have been right sadly. But hey, everyone who did watch it seemed to have a good time with it, or so the applause would indicate. I'm pretty sure the movie theater knew it wasn't going to do much business, they had showed two shows for it per day when it came on Thursday but later that night they cut one off for the weekend. It was subtitled too and most people here seem to abhor subtitled movies. Oh well, their loss, it was a magical movie. I'm glad it seems to be doing better elsewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With much more screens and the likely WOM going with it it could have been very surprising, the lack of ambition is killing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbuster Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 MOANA WAS THE HIGHEST-GROSSING MOVIE THIS WEEKEND, SHOWING INCREDIBLE LEGS ONCE AGAIN. IT GROSSED R$8.6m FOR A TOTAL OF R$52m.

Fullbuster Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) THE LOCAL MOVIE MINHA MAE E UMPA PECA 2 WAS SECOND WITH R$8.2m FOR A TOTAL OF R$86m.

Fullbuster Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 GREAT NEWS : The exchange rate is improving and reached $1 = R$3.15, a better level that we've seen last year, and much better than a year ago, if things go on that way this could be a great year for movies in USD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullbuster Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 MOANA reached $16.5m in Brazil, already beating The Good Dinosaur, Zootopia, Pets and Big Hero 6. $20m is a lock, it could pass Frozen ($21m) that benefited from a much better ER. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullbuster Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) The local movie Minha Mae é uma Peça 2 reached $20.5m, first movie of the year to pass $20m. Notice that the average ticket price for this movie is lower than usually seen for Hollywood movies, something common for local movies. Probably because this movie doesn't use 3D and IMAX.

Fullbuster Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) MOANA is now the highest-grossing WDAS movie in local currency with R$52m, passing Frozen (R$51.4m). FANTASTIC!!!!!

It's so rare to see a musical doing good numbers here, and I'm glad that LLL managed to make success, going for the third time tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen that way it's good indeed I'm sure it would have done much more with much more screens, it's a lost opportunity... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
