JAPAN BOX OFFICE | Demon Slayer breaks all time record for OW

[Mojoguy]

Maleficent has become a huge WW hit, and now it's breaking out big in Japan. The power of Angelina Jolie.

Also Japan loves the Disney brand.

[BK007]

Yuck.

 

Hopefully EOT recovers and Maleficent drops like a bomb. Won't happen, but one can hope.

[keysersoze123]

No, SA is the one with the pyrrhic victory. Frozen holds the records that actually matter.

 

Also

 

Spirited Away's gross outside Japan: 45.4 millionFrozen's gross outside Japan: 1.02 billion

 

 

No reason to compare a low budget japanese flick with a hollywood blockbuster globally. Frozen's success is well deserved as well.

Maleficent very strong in evening/night, passes 100k adm TK1M, 4M$+ OD is possible.

[Heretic]

$4m OD? That's fucking huge.

[Cynosure]

Could be looking at the biggest OW of the year, no ?

 

I wonder if it's benefiting from Frozen's run a bit since they're both Disney properties.

Wrong use of word, idiotic comparison.

Those admissions are for 4 chains ( Toho, 109, Kinezo and Movix), representing about 35% of japanese market share. 40 is the multiplier to be applied to obtain the approximate daily gross.

Thank You. I thought it was impossible. Too expensive.

That was important for sure. Everybody Who saw Frozen, saw Maleficent's trailer.But Jolie has a good box office in Japan. Her action hits made more than 20 million There.

[順位] [販売数] [映画作品タイトル名]

　*1　105249　マレフィセント

　*2　*32106　オール・ユー・ニード・イズ・…

　*3　*19649　アナと雪の女王

　*4　*15126　超高速！参勤交代

 

I think today's Maleficent TOHO number should be around 57000 , almost on par with Frozen's OW.

If $4M today is possible, that means tomorrow will be around 4.5 m (Sunday is stronger than Saturday in Japan)

If this happens, the OW would be more than 850m  Yen...

I don't think today will be more than 4m. In OW, the ticket price is lower than usual...

[Fullbuster]

I thought this thread would strongly slow after the end of Frozen's run,I'm surprised it's still so dynamic..

Frozen is still alive

[Fullbuster]

Frozen is still alive

For me it is dead,its run was way too long,I completely lost interest despite I love the movie.Japanese people seem very slow.Japanese runs are too lengthy,Russian ones are too short,two extremes.Something like the US BO is the best : it can be huge at the beginning and going on for 3 months after that.

So Maleficent now has a real shot for $7M OW (or probably more)?!
