John Marston Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Not really, and especially not more so due to expanding markets.nobody was predicting 1 billion, that alone makes a 1 billion gross incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elessar Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 (edited) It makes it impressive. Does it make it as impressive as grossing a billion a decade ago? Hell no! Edited December 30, 2012 by Elessar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 to be fair there was definitely way more pre release hype for this than the last one (with the Olympics promotion, Adele song, and 50th anniversary) but that doesn't make the gross any less impressive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 what will make it more impressive is that even adjusting it is probably the biggest bond since thunderball and that was in totally different era. Plus its going to make significantly more than 1B(even 1.1B). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Official press release: Sony Pictures-MGM’s 23rd James Bond picSkyfall became the 14th film ever to reach $1 billion globally, with a domestic cume of $289.6 million and $710.6 million internationally. Sony, which a month ago posted the studio’s best-ever performance at the box office with $4 billion worldwide, announced Skyfall‘s latest milestone today. Skyfall is the third pic this year to hit $1 billion globally, after Disney/Marvel’s The Avengers ($1.5B) and Warner Bros’ The Dark Knight Rises ($1.1B). Skyfall, by far the highest-grossing James Bond movie, is still going strong (No. 11 this weekend with $4.6M domestic), and has yet to bow in China. http://www.deadline.com/2012/12/skyfall-reaches-1-billion-global-milestone/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonwo Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Sony and MGM must be so happy to finally have their first billion dollar film especially MGM which has made a comeback this year through its co-productions with Sony and WB/New Line with The Hobbit.
