BadAtGender Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 So possibly 200m combined between SK, China, and Japan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 100m in Japan? Not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portgas Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 100m in Japan? Not sure. It's possible. MU did 90, TS3 126. Frozen has a huge momentum and hype for it. I recall somebody saying that people are really excited for it over there (they also had best trailers, and such). So, i think 100 is doable. And it's Frozen, it likes to exceed any expectations.

chuck0 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 i am afraid i dont understand a word of this... but at least according to the video comments it is pretty entertaining its a parody video from china right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
23IsEverywhere Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Looking at SK numbers, and having heard the hype of the hype in Japan I think that Frozen could be the #1 US animated film in Japanese history. SK is on pace right now to finish between 9k and 13k admissions which would put it at between 75M and 100M so assuming that Japan has anywhere near equivalent numbers I could see it hit 150M.

If it captures Japan as it did in US and S korea than 125m could happen.That will bring frozen 1.1b + Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxx93 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 My final predictions for Frozen in Japan: Spirited Away numbers (229.6m)... Yes, call me crazy and send me to the madhouse but looking SK numbers I am sure this will happen. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Planodisney Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I'm happy with anything above 70 million in Japan. That should put it over 1 billion. Don't forget Tangled only did 30 million in Japan so we don't really know how Frozen will do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullbuster Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 My final predictions for Frozen in Japan: Spirited Away numbers (229.6m)... Yes, call me crazy and send me to the madhouse but looking SK numbers I am sure this will happen. Yeah, madhouse definitely Still, I would love that to happen ^^ However I bet on $90m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget Tangled only did 30 million in Japan so we don't really know how Frozen will do. Tangled opened either right before or right after the big tsunami and that hurt its box office Edited February 9, 2014 by 23IsEverywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omni Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Calm down, people. Toy Story 3 grossed 130 millions thanks to a very high 3D ratio and a very favorable exchange rate. Monsters University didn't sell much less tickets, yet it stopped at 90M. And both were extremely popular and anticipated in Japan. Rapunzel and WIR got 30+, so 50+ seems doable and 70+ possible. Let's keep some sanity! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's keep some sanity! Rapunzel got 30 because of the tsunami (or earthquakes, i don't remember), otherwise i believe it'd do much better. And Frozen is massively hyped in a whole world right now, much more than i ever saw MU or TS3 being hyped. I'll say 70 is a minimum of what we can expect from it.

Let's keep some sanity! yes. Defenitely things are getting out of order. No way Frozen hits pixar sequel levels in Japan but should do very well considering its release date. I think 50M should be the target until we see something different. I dont think any movie in future will beat Spirited Away numbers. I doubt we will see any movie beat even HP1.

I dont think any movie in future will beat Spirited Away numbers. I doubt we will see any movie beat even HP1. Yeah, it's literally untouchable. In Yen, there's a HUGE gap between Spirited Away (30b yen) and the 2nd highest grossing movie, HP1 (20b yen). And the ticket prices have stayed the same for 20+ years, so until the prices increase somehow, no movie will be close to Spirited Away. Anyway, I'm optimistic about Frozen in Japan. Yeah 50m should be the target, but personally I could see 70m. Edited February 9, 2014 by catlover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingdong123 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I will personally lower my expectation and will leap with utmost joy if Frozen grosses more than $60M in Japan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
