 Re: Skyfall (INTL)
Setting the pace was, of course, the UK, which opened to an enormous estimated $32.4 million (£20.1). Smashing the all-time Saturday attendance record yesterday, this is the biggest opening of 2012 and the 2nd biggest Friday-to-Sunday opening weekend in history there, behind just the 3D Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows Part 2. This launch was 76% bigger than Daniel Craig's first turn as 007, Casino Royale, and 30% bigger than Quantum Of Solace. Of the $77.7 million on Skyfall, IMAX is estimating a weekend gross of $3.5 mil in 79 locations in 15 territories which include the UK, France, Russia, Korea, Bulgaria, Middle East, Kazakhstan and Brazil. FRANCE bowed with $9.1, 39% more than Casino Royale's opening Friday to Sunday (beating the entire 5-day opening as well) and just 15% less than Quantum, which opened during a holiday period. RUSSIA opened to $8.6, beating Casino Royale's first weekend by 171% and Quantum's by 58%. KOREA managed to take an gigantic 49% of the market, grossing $6.1, which was more than triple Casino Royale's opening and 58% more than Quantum's opening Fri-Sun (22% more than Quantum's entire 4-day opening). BRAZIL launched with a huge $6.5, the biggest Bond bow ever there, beating Casino's opening by 130% and Quantum's by 37%. BELGIUM earned $1.4, up 40% on Casino Royale's first Friday to Sunday by 40% and 17% on Quantum's. MGM's licensees: NORWAY opened to $2.7, capturing well over 65% of the entire market and besting the opening of Casino by 52% and Quantum by 15%. SWEDEN launched with a huge $2.6, the biggest opening of 2012, 27% bigger than the opening of Casino, and just 4% less than Quantum, which opened during a national holiday. DENMARK also opened to $2.6, the biggest non-3D opening ever there, beating Casino by 23% and Quantum by 30%. POLAND bowed with $2.5, more than tripling the opening weekend of Casino and besting Quantum by 67%. FINLAND earned a huge $1.5, the biggest opening in history there excluding previews, beating Casino Royale's bow by 82% and Quantum's by 23%. Other openings include the CZECH REPUBLIC ($.835), ISRAEL ($.825), PORTUGAL ($.630), HUNGARY ($.425), ROMANIA ($.325), SLOVAKIA ($.310), BULGARIA ($.175), and ICELAND ($.155). http://www.boxoffice.com/latest-news/20 ... uk-records

 Re: Skyfall (INTL)
Considering the overseas legs for QoS were just as bad as the domestic legs, this should be a great sign for its opening here. Is $75+ million still possible?
Incredible, incredible U.K. opening.

 Re: Skyfall (INTL)
Great opening numbers and with no competition in the market the legs for this one should be amazing.

 Re: Skyfall (INTL)
With expected great legs for the movie I think my $600m+ OS is looking good. Nothing is written in stone but the HUGE opening pretty much sets up the bar that high.

 Re: Skyfall (INTL)
Looks like SKYFALL broke the opening week record in the UK with more than £37m (almost $60m) - and 007 did so without midnights and without 3D...
Equally impressive: Per-theater-average for opening week will be close to the $100,000 mark...

 Re: Skyfall (INTL) Opening week record in the UK!
Looks like opening weekend in Germany will be around 2,050,000 admissions including previews - one of the 20 biggest openings of all-time and the biggest 007 opening by far (previously QUANTUM with 1,690,853)

 Re: Skyfall (INTL) Opening week record in the UK!
Skyfall is doing amazing business here too. Almost every showtime is completely sold out. I'm glad I got my tickets for tonight.

In about 5 days of release it will reach $100m. That is just HUGE. http://www.boxoffice.com/latest-news/20 ... uk-records

 Re: Skyfall (INTL) Opening week record in the UK!
Skyfall was surprisingly un-Bond. The somber ending was a nice touch. Bardem might be one of Bond's best villains, Bond's Joker. Unfortunately, he was underutilized, as was the amazingly sexy Bérénice Marlohe. The film also lacked the excitement. All in all, a good Bond but after the reviews i expected a little more. I prefer Casino Royale.

 Re: Skyfall (INTL) Opening week record in the UK!
Looks like SKYFALL will beat CASINO ROYALE's total of £51.216.877 in the UK today...

 Re: Skyfall (INTL) Opening week record in the UK!
It looks like a 50% drop in Poland but it's still stunning that it will probably just need 10 days to beat QoS total
