Thanks for the info. Seems like I must consider reviewing my knowledge on world geography.

It's winter everywhere below the red line:

It's winter everywhere below the red line:

Thanks, simple pic but informative. I feel so embarrassed right now for forgetting that

So we're probably looking at 680 or so worldwide ... good start for the franchise. 

 

Of course, I don't see the sequel suddenly doing 1 billion ... probably more like 750-800.  Seems Superman just isn't going to blow up in some of these overseas areas.

MOS has the advantage of summer weekdays though.

It's always summer here 

Seriously, school holidays just started and I think that MOS will benefit immensely from it

So 20M possible.

You lucky bastard :PSo, what do you see for total, 20M looks possible from what you said, but how about 25M?

[#ED]

680M looks like where it will land. Eh... Still a success. The sequel can only increase OS.

[Goffe]

So 20M possible.

TDKR, TASM and TF3 all opened around the same date and had 4.3-4.6 multiplier.

20m is a good guess, 25m is out of reach.

Man Of Steel added $13.3m from roughly 7,000 screens in 63 markets and stands at $338.2m. The Superman reboot opened in Brazil on $5.7m from 780 including previews and has amassed $62.9m in China after four, $45m in the UK after five, $21m in Mexico after five and $19.3m in Australia after three.

 

Man Of Steel has produced $18m in France after four, $15.2m in South Korea after five, $10.7m in Russia after four, $9.4m in Germany after four, $9.3m in Spain after four and $6.1m in Italy after four. It opened in Japan on Aug 30.

^{I guess because of the budget being 225 mil some people are down a little on these totals but this is a fantastic number for this reboot especially coming off SR being basically a disaster 7 years ago.  MOS has out grossed Iron Man 1 and 2 to put this in it's proper perspective.  MOS also kicked the crap out of Thor and Captain America.  WB has to feel this performed at about the highest of their expectation for Superman.  They are right where they wanted to be last time heading into a sequel.}

Warner Bros 2nd biggest ongoing franchise is officially MOS.I think they are satisfied with their new cash cow.Especially since their last mega-budget movie outside of MOS was Jack the Giant Slayer.

[Moviedweeb]

Unless your Jeff Robinov, you should be extremely pleased with this number (despite understandable expectations since this looked so fu*king good).

Guys I've been meaning to ask, does any one have a clue on how much superman II made in international box office, I've never seen any international figures around.

SR was a disaster in many people's eyes quality wise, but it's nowhere near a BO disaster. And LOL, definitely, let's take pride in Superman, one of the most well-known superheroes, beating Cap and Thor, who were virtually unknown characters to GA worldwide 

 

Both IM1 and IM2 doesn't have inflation as well as 3D to boost the gross. Take out just 3D and not counting inflation, MOS will probably be around IM2 number, and not significantly bigger than IM1 either. And let's not forget, Iron Man was a complete no name at the time of its release too, to put this in proper perspective 

 

But sure, let's compare them to MCU movies, forget the Spiderman movies, or Batman movies, that's convenient.

 

I'm happy for MOS success, but this post, cannot resist

Thor and CA were relatively new to the game and had a much lower investment cost. So by comparison, they did absolutely great and possibly better on a return on invetsment point of view as well as in terms of reception overseas which was a more risky project for relatively unknown properties

Money is money. If a movie made more because of 3D or inflation. Fuck it. MoS made more than IM1 and IM2. Get over it,

Agree on this. Strange how a movie which will make almost 700M WW is being put down here. If Pac Rim gets to even 400-500, everyone here will proclaim it a huge hit.

 

In the end, what any of us here think will not matter, the studio will see the money it made, the mistakes it made - how it can fix them, and get the next movie (and hopefully the extended DC universe) going.
