International Top of the Chart - Quarter Billion for Bond

November 19, 2008

Quantum of Solace saw its weekend haul sliced in half, but it still added $54.85 million on 10,465 screens in 65 markets for a total of $250.68 million internationally. This is likely already more than the film will make domestically, and it still has openings in Australia, Spain, and Japan still to go.

The film's best market of the weekend was Germany where it remained in first place with $8.16 million on 833 screens for a total of $26.25 million after two. Its best market overall is the U.K. where it has pulled in $60.20 million after three weeks, including $7.72 million on 549 screens this past weekend. As for the film's new markets, the only one of note was Mexico where it opened in first place with $2.30 million on 504 screens. This is about 50% more than Casino Royale's opening in 2006.

Other million markets include...

  • China - $7.02 million on 1,251 screens over the weekend and $16.68 million after two
  • Russia - $3.81 million on 750 screens over the weekend and $15.67 million after two
  • France - $2.93 million on 793 screens over the weekend and $26.00 million after three
  • Switzerland - $2.08 million on 172 screens over the weekend and $6.66 million after two
  • Italy - $1.94 million on 456 screens over the weekend and $6.99 million after two
  • South Korea - $1.79 million on 613 screens over the weekend and $6.97 million after two
  • Netherlands - $1.57 million on 135 screens over the weekend and $4.34 million after two
  • Brazil - $1.34 million on 404 screens over the weekend and $4.29 million after two
  • Denmark - $1.07 million on 120 screens over the weekend and $4.89 million after two
  • Norway - $1.02 million on 110 screens over the weekend and $4.11 million after two
It has already topped Casino Royale's totals in more than a dozen markets, and should be able to top its international total of $429 million before it is done.

We will get to High School Musical 3: Senior Year, and the rest of the million dollar movies, on Sunday.
