Can I just say...that I am very proud of my little country Netherlands ;-).
Good one.
It just makes very strong grosses in all major markets but nothing spectacular or record breaking except it's very popular in South America i've heard it made $46 mil in Mexico and Brazil for example also it's very popular in Russia.
Not seen the 4th movie yet, but they are quite funny films. And it is targeted at kids so it is bound to do a certain amount of business.
Well first off they just seem like popular films, and the series has been around for a good few years so it'll have fans.
Second, it's a U. It's a film aimed at kids that all the family can see. So mum, dad and the kids will go. Maybe bring nan along, nice family day out. And more people=more tickets sold=more money.
So my point is, if a kid/kids wants to go and see Ice Age, chances are at least one adult will be going along too. And it'll cost more.
Skyfall's overseas total reached $656.7 million, which ranks fourth all-time among 2D-only movies behind Titanic, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. Adding in its domestic tally, Skyfall has so far earned over $918 million, and it's looking more and more likely that it will reach $1 billion after opening in China next month.
--> And Adele's 'Skyfall' has not been disqualified and is now officially on the shortlist for the Oscars in the category 'Best Original Song'!
--> And Roger Deakins just won an LA Film Critics Association Award in the category 'Best Cinematography' for 'Skyfall'!
" 'Skyfall' strikesss like 'Thunderball!!' " 8-} :))
THREE Oscar nominations for sure for 'Skyfall'. Mark my words :-P!
And go, Deakins! I'm his newest huge fan.
This is beyond exciting. We need to hit that billion.
I think a billion maybe a stretch now? I don't know? I am just glad it has been an overall success!
Yes...considerably.
I like the CR response there!
The film has been out in China since it's release .Copys have been in the streets for weeks.
Because how much money the film makes affects the future films. If the money isn't substantial, maybe EON change their thinking with the next film and scrap one idea for another. Or in a financial crisis (as with MGM), there may be a long break again between films as it all gets sorted out if EON aren't confident in continuing the series. This isn't the case, thankfully, but it could.
I actually heard that someone tried to sell Dan a copy on the streets.
Ah yes, during the Chinese premiere of Casino Royale, Daniel was walking on the streets under a disguise when a guy tried to sell a copy to him.
