^ it's still showing in Megamall and Robinsons Galleria

Oh okay. I'll try. Thanks very much.

[wileECoyote]

During its first week TBL had like 80% of the screens available and then the next 2 weeks a lot of movies (around 12) were released so it shed a lot of its screens then of course the WOM was mixed as well so that's why it did dropped a lot. Still amazing performance of the movie here

Thanks. 80%!? That's incredible. Is that a record?

^ In Greenbelt 3 but only 2 & 4pm screenings and only this weekend most likely because there are no family friendly movies in the current releasesTotal Recall didn't appeal to me plus bad reviews so I had no plans to watch it. I watched Hope Springs before it disappeared in theaters and local flick I Do Bidoo Bidoo earlier.Planning to watch ParaNorman and Captive next week

I liked TR. The reviews were not good, but I thought it was fun sci-fi popcorn flck.

[kayumanggi]

TR was fun, mindless fun.

Not really when The Avengers and TASM opened, they had around 90-95% of the screens. Ditto Twilight, Potter and Transformers movies Edited September 4, 2012 by forg

A movie can hold up to 95% of screens. That is just mind boggling. Talk about being front loaded. Are screen counts expanding though?

[kayumanggi]

Yep. It's growing fast.

Yup as more malls open in provinces so thus the screen count

Heh have to admit the malls are massive and the theaters were all damn big. I remember the Mall of Asia and watching The Spirit in the cinema.

[forg]

I love Mall of Asia, it's so big I sometimes watch movies there (IMAX especially) but I usually watch movies in Makati because that's where I work

*** Moneyball is ranked higher in this chart compared to the Dollars gross chart due to changes in the US Dollar-Peso exchange rate.

****

Bourne Legacy crosses 200 million pesos. Let's see if Breaking Dawn 2 can knock it down to #5. Also a wildcard is local flick The Mistresses, last year No Other Woman surprised big time and with similar theme and with bankable stars, I'm curious how this film will perform.

Meanwhile, The Expendables 2 surpasses The Expendables' gross (P89 million > P76 mil). All new releases are weak and Katy Perry movie in particular flopped big time

Good number for BL. Wishi it could've done better though but it's not bad being in the top 5. Especially since the movies above it were much more successful or popular.How high do you expect EX2 to get? Looks like its doing better than EX1 except in the US & Canada.

[forg]

^ I think it will get to 100 million, it is still showing in a lot of screens

At first I though 100M USD. :oUntil I realized you meant pesos. So about 2.3M? Decent number nonetheless and it's gonna finish higher.

[kayumanggi]

The Philippines is one of the few countries where BRAVE is ahead of MADAGASCAR lll.

[forg]

Yay! Glad it did well here Going to watch ParaNorman later. Too bad that movie is a limited release here only

[kayumanggi]

I really want FINDING NEMO. Grrr.

[forg]

Well you know Pixar/Disney release patterns here hehe, at least we're getting it

[kayumanggi]

Yeah, but still. The choices these coming weeks are just boring.
