Tracking was spot-on regarding [INVIC].. Thanks to notfabio and SS! Also, this movie is so far removed from what North American audiences,

Posted by: Facto on Dec 12, 05:28 in response to dsbman's post That'd make [FROGP] pretty close to a break-even, [INVIC]...

and western audiences worldwide, normally would be interested in seeing, that only the big name director (who in himself is no box office guarantee) and those big star names (both of whom also regularly feature in films that are far from box office smashes), coupled with ad campaigns and Oscar talk, could draw as many people as it would take to achieve a 10M opening weekend..

I noticed the tracking, I had these thoughts, and when the theater counts came in, it was pretty clear that this would struggle to make the price the exchange had on it (even though it started slipping quite drastically the first day or two after that tracking appeared).


Tag(s): INVIC

Nikki sez: "Princess and the Frog" $7.5m//$27m, "Invictus" $3m/$10m, "A Single Man" $65k/$225k, "Lovely Bones" $35k/$120k dsbman Dec 11, 23:23

That'd make [FROGP] pretty close to a break-even, [INVIC] a sizable short. {nm} dsbman Dec 11, 23:27

Just as I suspected. {nm} HuskyMiller Dec 11, 23:28

It'll be interesting to see the Saturday bounce on Frog, probably not that surprising but by far its best performing locations were also.... notfabio Dec 12, 09:31

Well I'm Glad I Only Had It At 30M and Invictus At 13M. But, I Still Think Princess And The Frog Could Do 30M. wrongturn687 Dec 12, 09:37

If it really is only 7 million and not 7.5 that would require a huuuge 4.28 multiplier {nm} notfabio Dec 12, 09:56

which is definitely unlikely. :) {nm} grammar Dec 12, 11:04

All or nothing or you are sucky. haha {nm} grammar Dec 12, 11:03

What are you on about? He's obviously talking about EAP or the BoxOfficeGame...... {nm} Facto Dec 12, 16:55

I'm just curious: Does this movie have anything to do with Tyler Perry whatsoever? Or any other association to him, the person? Facto Dec 12, 10:34

No nothing to do with Tyler Perry, just theatres that do extremely well with his films are doing far better for Frog than others (in general {nm} notfabio Dec 12, 10:39

I'll never forget when Johnny Handsome opened in New Orleans...it did great there...no where else...New Orleanians are very loyal. {nm} Catzan Dec 12, 13:59

Variety is a little lower, 7 million for Frog, 2.9 million for Invictus notfabio Dec 12, 09:45
