Had they not released the DVD so quickly Batman probably would have reached it without the re-release eventually but meh.
Wall-E took ages to do well internationally not because it wasn't doing well in the countries it was released in but because it was released so slowly in a piecemeal fashion. They're doing the same with the DVD's, for example the DVD is already out in america and its wasn't released in Australia for the christmas season despite my country being an english speaking country. Almost all the money Wall-E is making at the box office atm is from Japan because of this.
