It can IMO. SH movies are big here.Manny Pacquiao is really one of a kind. Very humble and just inside and outside of the ring. It's just unfortunate he got excited and lost focus during the Marquez fight and was knocked down HARD. He should stop fighting IMO.Wait, are you American?

Or maybe revert to Catholicism I heard from a relative that Manny's mom has been saying that he's lost his focus since he joined another Christian church. Besides I'm sure if the two parties agree he'll do a Floyd v Manny fight. Talk about $$$$

[wileECoyote]

Btw its kind of interesting that JTGS and HG are the top 2 movies. Fairy tale movies a big thing in the Philippines?

[Sam]

It can IMO. SH movies are big here.

 

Manny Pacquiao is really one of a kind. Very humble and just inside and outside of the ring. It's just unfortunate he got excited and lost focus during the Marquez fight and was knocked down HARD. He should stop fighting IMO.

 

Wait, are you American?

Yes, I am. A Texan to be specific 

 

I have an uncle who is a big big fan of Pacquiao. I remembered we were watching the fight between him and Timothy Bradley last year, and alas, that disgraceful, embarrassing, full of bullshit corruptions match had him in flames. I think he actually stayed away from boxing for a full year 

 

I think Manny can retire in glory now, he's already a legend of the game anyway. But if he still loves the sport, and can refocus his mind, continue playing with beautiful styles and great personality; then I'm sure many boxing fans, and especially his fans, would love if he can stay on for a few years. I know my uncle is definitely one of them

Floyd is scared. He won't fight Manny.

Ha ha. Good to know. He is definitely a legend. He is REALLY rich too.

It Takes a Man and a Woman is a smash $5 million in 2 weeks! GI Joe 2 did really good as well #2 already on year-to-date ranking. The Croods after a slow opening had nice holds for a solid gross

Edited April 11, 2013 by forg

[kayumanggi]

That's awesome for IT TAKES A MAN AND A WOMAN. Gonna see OBLIVION tonight.

[forg]

I'll see both Oblivion and Olympus this weekend as well.

 

I'm very happy The Croods is holding well so far despite low opening, looks like its benefiting from summer now that the children are on vacation

 

I'm thrilled that we already have $5 million earner early on! I think it has shot to end with $6 million before Iron Man 3 takes over

Edited April 11, 2013 by forg

[kayumanggi]

I think IT TAKES A MAN AND A WOMAN can make 7 M. OBLIVION was great by the way, some questionable parts but very enjoyable.

[forg]

Studio is reporting that It Takes a Man and a Woman earned 300 million pesos so that's around $7 million already. With this great performance from a local movie then what more Iron Man 3? I'm excited!

 

Haven't seen Oblivion yet, maybe tomorrow or Monday after work. I wanna watch Olympus Has Fallen too. I just need to find time haha

IRON MAN lll could make 12 M or more.

[druv10]

IRON MAN lll could make 12 M or more.

 

That would be crazy good and on par with TA. What would TA2 make? 15M, 20M or more?

[Olive]

That would be crazy good and on par with TA. What would TA2 make? 15M, 20M or more?

14M+ Currently holds the all time record.

TA 14.38M all time #1

IM2 6.25M #2 OF 2010

IM1 3.99M #1 OF 2008

edit: I thought you were asking what did TA make...
