Breaking Dawn Part 1 OS Thread - UPDATED: $430,884,723

When is this supposed to come out in China?

No China release.

[Fake]

How it isn`t? Over $300 mio dom and over $400 mio OS. That`s over $700 mio. It`ll have good legs.

That's a possibility not a lock.

No China release.

Wtf? Serious?

I think BD1's goal should be beating NM's 709M WW. Anything less would be disappointing.

I don't think it would be disappointing, as €uro was much stronger back in 2009 when New Moon opened.

[Heretic]

It's not locked for 700m WW, and it's DEFINITELY not locked for 300m domestically. It'll probably do around 680m, but 700m isn't out of the question at all.

Big increase. That's a massive WW opening for Twilight. Nearly 300m.

[kayumanggi]

Wow. That's an awesome figure! Any more markets to open?

[druv10]

Germany and Japan.

[iceroll]

Did the other Twilight movies get released in China? I think it would be dumb not to release it there, it's one of the biggest box office films and China is one of the biggest markets. A lot of wasted potential IMO.

[efialtes76]

Germany and Japan.

and S.Korea!

[John Marston]

Twilight isn't that popular in Japan

[kayumanggi]

It needs China.

[kayumanggi]

Twilight isn't that popular in Japan

It's still money though.

I don't believe any of the Twilight films have been released in China. It's hard to get one of the 20 slots allotted to foreign movies in the country per year.They do release in Hong Kong every year, I think, though.

Any more markets to open?

November 24:Germany, Guatamala, Malaysia, Singapore December 1:Thailand December 22:Hong Kong February 25 2012:Japan

[kayumanggi]

Thanks. Maybe 40 M more from those markets?

[Heretic]

Germany should add another 25-30m or so, so yeah, maybe around 40m more from those markets. Minimum it does OS is around 375m I think. Maximum probably around 425m.

[TLK]

Barring a major collapse, it should be able to get close to 400 million.
