iceroll Posted February 4, 2013 Author Share Posted February 4, 2013 actually most said it is going to make 40 million, no? No that was the lowest prediction, a few people had it doing 100m+ and that was before we knew it would approach 200m domestic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Those who were predicting 100m+ were either very optimistic about Lincoln or have no idea about international markets' tastes. It was always going to have 55-65% of its WW gross coming from NA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lab276 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 I don't see why being about an American president would limit Lincoln's appeal. The King's Speech was about a British Monarch and did well in the US and OS. And if you want to treat Lincoln as a political movie, Fahrenheit 9/11 did roughly the same DOM and OS. The fact that Lincoln will make twice as much DOM as OS is kind of disappointing on behalf of the OS countries.Maybe the world is just more interested in British monarchs? Maybe the actual story of TKS (overcoming adversity) resonated more around the world? Maybe the fact that it was in part a comedy?As for Fahrenheit 9/11, you won't find many people around the world that liked Bush, so a movie bagging him out wasn't going to be unsuccessful. At the time it was also very topical, Lincoln is about events that happened 150 years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Third weekend over 10m. Half term in the UK, soft drop expected, this baby is heading nicely toward 100m. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Alfred Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Doing better than Silver Linings and Flight. Will end up with a great total, roughly 85m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndustriousAngel Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 After a very soft start, really good holds in Germany and Austria - still, it won't reach Munich numbers, which I would set as the bar to call it a success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
