catlover Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Disney Japan just released the official japanes movie version of let it go! That's Takako Matsu? She's one of my favorite actresses in Japan! I know she can sing, but I didn't know she could sing that well . The singing is great but the lyrics though... I don't know, a little bit cheesy? Kinda too literal. It would work as a J-Pop song, not so much as a musical song. But that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OS and $860 M. WW!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxx93 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 I think a big reason why Frozen is not so much overperforming in South America compared to Europe its because of the exchange rates and piracy. Not because of the Winter theme. And because sadly, the Latin American dub was awful But hey, still made good bussiness and it is still on pace for a Billion so not really a big deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incarnadine Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) Great second week for Frozen in Turkey!!! $3.15 M. after 14 days (almost $1 M. more than what DM2 did last summer during its first 2 weeks) http://boxofficeturkiye.com/ Took me a while to make heads or tails out of the page from that link. Finally figured out Frozen was Karlar Ülkesi Over 3 m in 14 days, looks like my optimistic 5m estimate might end up being low. $45M in SK by Sunday is awesome. I hope it keeps going, $55-$60 would just be amazing. Hopefully it's the other Hollywood movies they take screens from to make way for new local movies, Frozen looks too profitable for it to be the first choice to pull from theaters right now.

Incarnadine Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Does anyone have numbers from the OD in Sweden? Can't find it yet either. Interesting looking at the numbers though, it looks like Sweden can support movies enough to pass 20 million. Desolation of Smaug is only 58k away and some movie that lists Disney as the studio with the unwieldy name of "The 100 Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared" is at 18.3m. I still think 9-10m for Frozen, but like SK it appears there is potential for more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that seems like a no-brainer to be a big hit in Sweden. That's actually a movie I regret not seeing in the theater. Sure, the plot is threadbare and is just an excuse for the cast to move from song to song, and Pierce Brosnan's singing is an assault on the ears, but damn can Amanda Seyfried sing. She's been one of my favorite actresses ever since I saw MM. Edited February 2, 2014 by Incarnadine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABBA is the name of the group, back in the seventies. There's even an ABBA museum there in Stockholm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
