juni78ukr Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 ¥2.1M OD, should get to 8-10M total. I thought 2.1m opening Friday would give 7-8 OW. Surely it will gross some money after that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCS Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) So already $10M for DM2 after 2 days! How much can it make? Edited January 11, 2014 by JCS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omni Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 oh frozenatics This has nothing to do with Frozen, Heisenberg - it's about taking the cinema seriously, loving it and then ascertaining that the top three movies of the year are craps for stupid kids or crooked adults. Most, though, don't seem to be particularly upset by that - which is symptomatic. Many could also reply that those films are actually pretty good - which would be symptomatic, too.And I just can't let disenchantment or indifference enter my blood.

alee7915 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 ‘Despicable Me 2′ Opening No. 1 in China with $13.8 Million http://variety.com/2014/film/international/despicable-me-2-opening-no-1-in-china-with-13-8-million-1201046893/ “Despicable Me 2″ bows in China this weekend heading for first place with an expected roughly $13.8 million. The Universal-Illumination toon opened Friday to $4 million at 3,000 locations, 141 of which were Imax screens. This bow comes seven months after the worldwide release of the film and beats similar 2013 bows “Monsters University” ($13.2 million), “The Croods” ($6.4 million) and “The Smurfs 2″ ($10.1 million). The numbers are particularly interesting given the film’s predecessor, 2010′s “Despicable Me,” never opened in China. The bow comes just one week after China’s film bureau announced that 2013 represented a 28% uptick in box office gross over 2012, making it the second largest worldwide market after North America with $3.53 billion in annual sales. The weekend estimate will bring the film’s worldwide total to $935 million, the fourth highest on record for an animated film after “Toy Story 3″ ($1.06 billion), “The Lion King” ($987.5 million) and “Finding Nemo” ($936.7 million).

A Marvel Fanboy Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share Posted January 12, 2014 And expected...in China, 'if it's shit, it's a hit". That DM2 numbers hardly makes it a hit in China ... (over 300m yuan, yes; under, not really.) DM2 is just doing a little bit better than MU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Marvel Fanboy Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) One thing interesting is that they (Uni./Edko) seem have spent big money on P&A for DM2 this time. PR articles almost everwhere. (Did they really bet on $1B ? ....) Edited January 12, 2014 by firedeep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadAtGender Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 With that sort of opening, how high is DM2 likely to go? (I have no idea what sort of legs films in China usually display.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Generally you can expect 2.5-3x multiplier from a 3-day opening. So as firdeep said, something around 40m is doable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
