Wow...that won't be good at all...didn't even Battleship opened around $3.5m OW?

I'm sure WOM will help it a lot. No reason to be pessimistic, it's really a movie Japanese will love.

I don't know about WOM, but Obon will help a lot.

[A Marvel Fanboy]

The high end was always $30M IMO.

Movies dont work the way you think ... 

[A Marvel Fanboy]

I think WWZ will win the wkn.

They do.

After all, Ted did it last year, Avatar did it too...PR is made for Japanese audience, it's in its DNA, I expect a good WOM a better than expected numbers. You'll be surprised

[The Dark Rock]

Oooo...so its going against WWZ

[lab276]

They do.After all, Ted did it last year, Avatar did it too...PR is made for Japanese audience, it's in its DNA, I expect a good WOM a better than expected numbers. You'll be surprised

You really saw Ted being successful in Japan?

Not at all, I didn't expect this.

I mean, people don't expect PR to be successful in Japan, like Ted before, but WOM really helped it and it became the surprise of the year. PR is underestimated the same way.

And what connection is there between Avatar, Ted and Pacific Rim?

Pacific Rim hasn't had particularly good legs so far.

We all thought LM was in French audience DNA ...

Huh no. Les Misérables in musical with songs in English couldn't succeed in France, nobody expected it to be successful there because musicals always fail and people don't like to read subtitles, they want dubbed movies.

If you thought that it's because you don't know this country and its market.

[Fullbuster]

Pacific Rim hasn't had particularly good legs so far.

 

1. It's Japan

2. Exception to the rule

[baumer]

Does WWZ have a 5 or 3 day?

[A Marvel Fanboy]

Does WWZ have a 5 or 3 day?

2 days. But its two days will handily beat PR 3 days.

What makes you sooo sure??
