SHREK 4 (INTL)
Internationally, SHREK FOREVER AFTER debuted with $26 million in just 9 territories. Russia claimed $20 million--making it the largest opening ever in that country. http://www.facebook.com/ercboxoffice/po ... 0392354639

Re: SHREK 4 (INTL) - Largest Russian Opening Ever!
oh well that is some of a breather. The movie is better and some parts are even as good as Part 1.
I know lot of people do not want this to make money because Toy Story 3 and IM2 will win due to this. Looking at the pace this summer is going Toy Story 3 also might not be that big, though we will have to wait and watch.

Re: SHREK 4 (INTL) - Largest Russian Opening Ever!
It has been confirmed that Shrek Forever After grossed 604,1 mln russian roubles versus 601,9 mln for Avatar. However looks like Avatar might be slightly ahead in USD with 19.93 mln vs 19.68 mln.

What a shame.. No. It did around $23-24mln What do you fucking mean, man? What shame? It did $23.5 m, outperforming Shrek the Fucking Third ($23.4 m)!!! This makes Dragon the HIGHEST FUCKING GROSSING ORIGINAL ANIMATED PICTURE EVER (dethroned the previous record holder - Kung Fu Panda with its $20.9 m!). Nobody saw that coming. Legs were great, reception was great. Sequel will be huge.

Shrek 3 wasn't received as bad internationally as it was in the US, probably because outside of the US it appeals more to the younger audience, and they eat everything. I don't have any illusions about the Russian moviegoers either. Russian moviegoers are stupid: most of those who bring money to the theaters are teens, and they are not getting smarter over the years. And a lot of people, entire segments of the population just ignore cinemas and watch movies at home so they won't have to sit next to those fuckers. Moviegoing in Russia is very different from that in the US (the fact which I know very well from personal experience). P.S. And yeah, I didn't like how you referred to the entire nation. That has nothing to do with Shrek's success. And trust me, translation into a different language can smooth over the stupidity that might be clearly evident to the English speaker.
