What on Earth is with the super-low international gross?  Only 3 million?  Just about every Pixar film internationally has grossed equal to, if not more, than the domestic gross.  Tell me this is just in need of an update (it was a great movie).

A lot of times they'll premier movies at different dates in different countries. Wall-E will do fine.

It'd better be. Wikipedia didn't mention much about its distribution. But if this is typical of Pixar (or the industry in general) then I'll feel much better.

Wall E has only opened in a few tiny markets internationally. Pixar/disny always time their releases to coincide with major school holidays. I'm more worried about the US box office as it looks like it'll struggle to pass Kung Fu Panda. Wall E should be huge internationally so no need to worry...



Playing: Borderlands(great co-op,HUGE amount of content),Too Human(better late than never lol),Saints Row 3(Penetrator ftw),Minecraft 360,Harry Potter Lego. 

Patiently waiting for:  Tomb Raider, Borderlands 2

You're right, the domestic gross is rather low. But, that allays my fears a bit, so thank you.

Wall-E already has an international gross of 53m US$: http://www.boxofficeguru.com/intl.htm

It opened in UK only two days ago, France opening will be on July 30th, Germany Sep. 25th. To name just a few.

Ratatouille's international gross was way higher than the domestic one: http://www.boxofficeguru.com/intlarch5.htm

Title International Domestic Worldwide % Foreign % Domestic
Ratatouille  415.0m 206.4m 621.4m 66.8% 33.2%

I have a feeling it will be the same with Wall-E.

Its an amazing movie... But some people think it is more like an "art movie" than a blockbuster... I really loved it, but my brother (he's 8 years old) wasn't that interested in the movie... It deserves to be above the others pixar movies,(or at least competing with finding nemo and ratatouille)...

Yeah. I'm hoping it has longer legs stateside. But it looks like other movies are gonna kill it's earnings. It would've done a lot better if it were released a month or so earlier.

 Out the number of times and ways I searched "Wall-e international box office", I don't know how I missed that.  But that is good, good news.

@solracbit

Yeah, this one's gotta be my favorite.  Speaking of art, anyone else have the urge to start bawling in the scene where he's sorting out his findings?

I saw Wall-e today. Great film. It deserves to do well. I'm not sure who it's audience is, though. I took my 7 year old, and she prefers Kung-Fu Panda.
