Austin Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Just now, Ryan Reynolds said: not the best for its budget, should do similar to FAST X With a better domestic split. Fast X had a lot of China gross which isn't much of a return foe the studio. Also had a higher budget than MI7. Somehow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KP1025 Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Not often we see Taiwan make it into the Top 10. That's a strong opening compared to the China number considering the market size difference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likewise for HK, both places have some TGM-halo effect going on MI:DR as the OW is significantly higher than Fallout. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OW there is looking <$2m. Remind me of JW4, despite heavily featuring Paris, there isn't much bump to their BO. Hollywood should start exploring shooting on location in some of the less common countries, where people would actually respond and excited to see their place to appear on big screen. See how Transformer: ROTB actually blow up in Peru because the movie was partially shot there. Yeah after this opening weekend we aren't even in the top 15 markets for the movie, and considering our notorius legs we might finish outside the top 20 Maybe one of the problems could be that this kind of movies (James Bond, Mission Impossible, John Wick...) are often available and broadcasted on Sky, Amazon Prime or various tv channels so they are almost considered TV movies as strange as it may seem In fact I was very surprised when my mother asked me to go see it at the cinema as soon as possible, she really likes the saga but the only one she saw in theaters was the first 😄 Edited July 16, 2023 by MG10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titanic2187 Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Paramount/Skydance’s Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One lit the fuse this weekend with a $235M global start. Of that, $155M is from 70 international box office markets which rep 93% of the offshore footprint (Japan is notably still to come). Excluding China, where there were strong headwinds from local pics and amid contracted audience interest in Hollywood movies, the overseas debut on the Tom Cruise-starrer is $129.6M. On a like-for-like basis including previews, that’s 15% ahead of Mission: Impossible Fallout which would make this the biggest opening for the franchise when removing the PRC. There, the launch was $25.4M, which is 66% below Fallout which released in what was a different time in the market. Essentially the biggest drag here is that the hope was China would perform better, but there continues to be a disquieting atmosphere in the market with regard to studio movies. M:I7 is still seeing presales among the top three films for the next several days there. It’s maintained the 9.4 Maoyan audience score (a number which often shifts in early play), but the film, headscratchingly, lost screens across the weekend. In IMAX globally, M:I7 grossed $25M for the franchise’s top start ever in the format and the second-best launch of 2023. The $14M coming from international is the biggest July debut for IMAX, best of the franchise and third-highest for a Paramount movie; in total, 53 markets saw their best franchise bow including UK, France, Germany, Spain, UAE, India, Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Mexico and Brazil. Turning back to Dead Reckoning Part One, a film whose promotional campaign was full tilt (see more detail below), the top market behind China was Korea at $14.3M on 599 screens (this is a bit softer than hoped for despite the market being Cruise-crazy and the star/producer’s appearance there during the worldwide tour; nevertheless, it’s the top opening weekend of the year for a Hollywood movie). In the UK, $13.8M made for the best start for the franchise at 717 locations. India, for its part, launched with a No. 1 $9M at 1,872 locations for the best weekend bow of the year. In Australia, the No. 1 debut was good for $8.3M and the best-ever for the Mission movies. France launched M:I7 to $7.7M at 785 sites while Taiwan drove up $7M from just 101, the best of the bunch. Rounding out the Top 10, Indonesia opened the film to No. 2 (behind Insidious), with $5.2M from 428 sites; the UAE gave the Christopher McQuarrie-directed installment a No. 1 start of $4.8M from 66; and Mexico grossed $4.5M from 910. What’s a bit disappointing here is to see that Italy, while landing a No. 1 bow, came in with just $1.9M. The market is down overall versus pre-pandemic and is traditionally lamented as an impossible proposition to program during the summer. However, there’s a renewed effort by the government and the studios to encourage moviegoing in the season. Maybe it’s partly down to the searing temperatures in southern Europe this week, but it’s a bit of a shame given how much of Dead Reckoning was shot in both Rome and Venice which might have been expected to lend a sort of hometown pride (look at what Transformers: Rise of the Beasts has done in Peru off shooting locally – the movie is simply massive there, now at $14.2M through the current frame). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always found almost sold out movie theaters during the OW for a bond film. Bond gets also way more media coverage over the tv than M:I.

Bob Violence Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) 19 hours ago, KP1025 said: That's an insane PTA from Taiwan. The $7m is its gross to date in Taiwan, where it opened on the 8th. (It may have technically been in previews before the 11th, but from what I can tell these "previews" were not really much different from a standard release, and even Paramount's own marketing in Taiwan was inconsistent on the "official" release date.) I believe $7m would put its second-weekend gross to date at #2 for the year, behind Fast X with $7.68m, but it's not an entirely fair comparison since Fast X had three extra days (it opened on Wednesday instead of a Saturday). TGM had done $7.6m by the end of its second weekend, but it was a Tuesday release so it had yet another extra day. MI6 earned a smidge more than $10m over two weekends with a Wednesday opening. EDIT: Apparently MI6 made $2.4m in Taiwan on its opening Wednesday through Friday, so removing that leaves $7.6m over the same period that DR has been in theaters. I see no basis for declaring $7m a "best franchise opening" in Taiwan. Edited July 17, 2023 by Bob Violence 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Issac Newton Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 9-Days WKend for Taiwan &Australia. Breaking Taiwan Number, $2.1M came from SAT-SUN (Saturday OD) &$4.9M came from MON-SUN (where $1.9M Weekdays (Mon-Thu) &$3.0M is the 2nd Weekend) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 with such a long OW in many markets, 2nd weekend wont look that good. That is taking out any barbie or Oppy impact. Still its going to end up with solid OS total. I am hoping for somewhere close to 500m OS despite china grossing just 60m. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie Jatinder Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 WED to SUN is around $125M. That 15% higher than MI6 is BS. at best it is par, though more likely 10% ish down in same time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
