Chris Hu said: JW did great but realistically it can probably only make another $20 to $30 million world wide and it looks like it will not surpass Titanic's domestic grand total which is still pretty good since it took Titanic forever to pass the $600 million mark and its re release really didn't add that much to its grand total. JW could match what Titanic did on its re release. |
People are estimating up to 100m for JW in Japan. It's not slowing down at all even after Obon Week. And since there is no other big release until the end of August then we should expect at the very minimum 65m for Japan. So it's 100% sure going to break 1 billion overseas. Domestically though, it still depends on Universal for it to beat Titanic's 658m gross. Its getting an IMAX release for one week on Aug 28, that's just IMAX not the regular or normal 3D screens. If they also plan on increasing the 3d and normal screens then it might have a chance on beating Titanic.

Nice, sounds good no one expected it to be this big.

Yeah it's on its 3rd week already and its still earning the same as when it premiered in Japan. Obon Week seem to have boosted the great word of mouth even more. MInions is also holding pretty great slowly catching up to MI5 despite being released earlier. Universal is on a roll. Domestically SOC is dominating too.
