Post International Box Office Sources
So international box office is really fascinating and Box office mojo reports international tallies.

However, I was hoping to compile a list of URL's by region to better keep track of box office for individual countries.

What are the best box office websites you use for say Japan, Germany, Australia, etc.?

The only Japanese source is unfortunately bunkatsushin.com, and they require a subscription which costs a ridiculous amount for most people.

To subscribe for the daily newsletter and access to the website (you can't purchase one without the other), it'll set you back 18,900 yen ($190) a month per medium (movie, music, television). And that won't even grant you full access. For a PRO membership, which includes coverage dating back to 1961, it'll cost you an additional 7,450 yen ($75), bringing your total to 26,350 yen ($265) a month.

Thankfully, I'm part of a large movie community on 2chan (Mark Schilling from Variety also posts with us), and different members share the cost for certain months to access the numbers. We usually pass on the PRO membership, but used it a few months back to get data on 'Princess Mononoke' and a couple other older films. One of our members used to run a site that included the weekly Top 10 earnings for several years, but he had to stop earlier this year. I've, slowly, been working on picking up where he left off.

I follow overseas box office for every country when a Stallone movie is released, so I need to have resources for each market. Sometimes, you have to hunt high and low, but eventually you will find them. I have more than what I provided above. You can find lots of links to Intl box office pages on boxoffice.com's International forum area.
