Any word on updated OS numbers yet?

Hopefully it will be close to 350m with Brazil opening and left over viewings from the other territories.

MoS once again had a great Saturday bump to make up for its subpar Friday one.

Not sure if it'll be that high, but that would certainly be nice

Yeah it was my $11.75 that made the difference lol!

 

[Liam_H]

I have MoS doing about $3.36M form Mon-Thurs based on that Sunday number.

Nice. I was hoping for a high $2 million and $2.5 million for the weekend. If it can pull in $6 million from Monday until Sunday that will almost put it back at hovering around $288 million by the next Monday. Right on target.

 

[Liam_H]

Actually nvm. I messed up on its Monday number so the total will probably fall around $2.9M

 

[TheIrishAvenger]

Domestic: $280,995,000
Foreign: $338,200,000
-------------------------------
Worldwide: $619,195,000

Wow. What a number. In one month.

 

[InJustice]

Domestic: $280,995,000
Foreign: $338,200,000
-------------------------------
Worldwide: $619,195,000

 

[Liam_H]

Hmmm, so it seems it pulled in about $23M from the entire week including the opening in Brazil, unless my math is wrong.

 

[Gur-Ak]

Here's the updated box office with latest OS:

Budget: $225,000,000

Domestic: $280,995,000 as of Jul. 14 2013 (45.4%)
+ Foreign: $338,200,000 as of Jul. 14 2013 (54.6%)

= Worldwide: $619,195,000

In Release: 31 days / 4.4 weeks

 

[Andreth]

it has been a weird year movies like WWZ ,grown ups 2,and Gatsby over perform while films i thought would do well underperformed like STID,Pacific Rim,Lone Ranger,etc.

Yeah, I'm surprised about how much I enjoyed and liked World War Z, I had no idea Pacific Rim was under performing

So, what's the news from Brazil, the movie opened there this friday

 

[dnno1]

Now, who was saying the film wouldn't make $600 million?

 

[DieSmiling]

Is Pacific Rim really underperforming? What were people expecting from it? It's a new property with no stars to its name. It's a sad world we live in when crap like Grown Ups 2 can beat it out, but I didn't realize expectations were so high.

The most puzzling underperformance of the summer for me is Star Trek Into Darkness. The only real explanation is the four year delay between the original and sequel really hurt it but that doesn't even make much sense to me... I was confident it would surpass the original domestically.

 

[Liam_H]

A big reason to both those questions...marketing.

 

[Stephen K. Hone]

Any idea what Brazil's #'s are? $5 million? $8 million?

 

[ElDuderino]

Assuming MOS gets at least $20 million from Japan (which I think is the floor), and another $20 million in domestic, it really just needs another $40 million of foreign box office to get to $700. I wonder how much north of $700 it'll go. Maybe even to $715-725 range.

I think demand has to be called into question too. Maybe there wasn't enough demand for ST:ID despite the fact that Paramount called for a sequel on ST09's opening weekend, I mean look at TDKR, it was released four years after TDK and had enough hype and demand that people wanted to see it.

It might get even worse now with Star Wars coming back to the fold and ST nearing it's 50th anniversary.

 

[Axl Van Sixx]

Does anyone know why every now and then (like this weekend), Box Office Mojo doesn't even write a report of the weekend results? You'd think that would be kind of a top priority for a website exclusively devoted to tracking box office results.

 

[Stephen K. Hone]

Unless MOS absolutely tanks in Japan this movie is going over $700 million WW. How much over is anyone's guess. Oh unless your SN is Tobias and then you'll be using the - button on the calculator and the actual BO will diminish!

 

[ElDuderino]

Tobias: Oh, it's at $281 million after 5 weekends? Max it'll do is $285.

TDKR was coming off of two movies, and TDK was essentially a cliffhanger.

 

[Liam_H]

No idea, but just to throw something out there around $6M might sound right. We do have a member here from Brazil so we could just wait for him/her or until the numbers come out.
