PatrickvD Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 This will do gangbusters in Europe as well. I totally underestimated the appeal of this production. It's been a big hit for decades and there's no reason why the movie adaptation wasn't going to be big. Especially with an all star cast.I think Mamma Mia is toast.

riczhang Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Korea's done just amazing. Flat from last week, and New Year's next week ensures a very soft drop. Japan's doing extremely well as well. Looks to do about 40 million total. Asia alone could gross in excess of 110 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riczhang Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 It needs a Chinese release. The way Asia has done, it could do gangbusters in China.Hopefully. Even if it's a buyout and not a revenue share. But didn't they sing Do You Hear the People Sing during the Tiananmen Square protests? That might be a problem in importing the movie into China. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
