Yeah I know I said I wouldn’t do a lot of these, but it looks like it’s slowing down here in Oz – if you can call it that. According to UrbanCine although BD Pt 1 is still holding onto the no. 1 spot – it seems to only have grossed AUD5,020,312 as opposed to AUD15,333,608 in week 1. Still $5M in one week is pretty damn good … right.
Figures at Box Office Mojo are:
US – USD220,832,009
Foreign:Â USD268,000,000
Again that’s a lot of money honey … but they’ve also stated this:
“The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 topped the foreign box office for a second-straight weekend with an estimated $71.5 million from 68 markets. Its biggest opening came in Germany, where it debuted to $14.2 million including previews. That’s an improvement over Eclipse but down a bit from New Moon. Excluding Germany’s grosses, Breaking Dawn declined around 61 percent from last weekend.”
It’s an “improvement over Eclipse” – you’re not kidding there .. I still cannot bring myself to watch anything other than FF Edward from that film. I so wish that one day we will see the tent scene that Rob claimed was better than the redo they did that was included in the film. We live in hope.
Thanks for the updates Maria – BD deserves to do better than its predecessors
