‘Avatar’ Breaking IMAX Records

4 hours ago

According to a recent press release by the IMAX Corporation, the company’s current draw, Avatar, is absolutely shattering IMAX box office records.

In just ten days, the film has already taken in $39 million worldwide, making $8.8 million domestically and $3.6 million internationally in its second weekend. The $8.8 million from IMAX showings counts for about 12 percent of Avatar’s domestic gross, despite IMAX theaters making up less than 3 percent of the screens playing the movie.

Although IMAX theaters make up a small portion of the total screens showing Avatar, 17 of the top 20 locations showing the film in the U.S. were IMAX theaters.

Internationally, IMAX theaters in both Poland and Japan saw record openings, and Avatar is still set to open on 11 IMAX screens in China, which will likely also see record breaking numbers.

Greg Foster, the Chairman and President of IMAX Filmed Entertainment, credits the overwhelming success of Avatar with the style of the movie, »

New ‘Inception’ Trailer Folds Cities (!)

28 December 2009 12:00 PM, PST

Warner Brothers released a new trailer today for next summer’s mega-blockbuster, Inception.  In said trailer, A City Is Folded In Upon Itself.  This, of course, is Christopher Nolan’s follow-up to The Dark Knight, and as such is arguably the most-anticipated movie of next year.  With that said, the trailer doesn’t give away much else about the film, but it does make the film look even more compelling than the first teaser.  Perhaps it’s the brief glimpses of Lukas Haas.  Perhaps it’s Nolan’s re-purposing of Spielberg’s Jurassic Park water glass.  Nah, it’s The City Folding In Upon Itself.

A particular stand-out of this trailer is Hans Zimmer’s Epic score, which sounds suitably massive for a film in which, at one point, A City Is Folded In Upon Itself.

Inception, still starring the freaking unbelievably incredible cast of Leonardo DiCaprio, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page, »

WB Remains Most Profitable Studio

28 December 2009 10:02 AM, PST

While 20th Century Fox may have cleaned up as far as international sales went in 2009, it was Warner Bros. that swept the competition domestically.

Despite starting the year off with several films that saw lukewarm success–Watchmen, Observe and Report, Terminator:Salvation–the summer’s big hits of The Hangover and the most recent Harry Potter both brought in around $300 million domestically.

More recent openings for the studio have also done well, with The Blind Side being one of the top ten highest grossing films of 2009, and Sherlock Holmes bringing in $65 million in its opening weekend.

All of this has helped Warner Bros. to make over $2 billion this year, crushing its own record of $1.8 billion in a year. The studio’s success in 2008 was due largely to the very well-received The Dark Knight, which helped to make Warner Bros. the most profitable studio. Obviously, such an increase in sales in the »

Fox Sets New Record for International Sales

28 December 2009 9:33 AM, PST

2009 was a pretty good year for 20th Century Fox, and the release of Avatar in the final weeks of the year gave the studio an extra boost in profits. While Fox did well domestically, it was overseas that they really knocked out the competition.

Thanks partially to the $405 million brought in internationally by Avatar, 20th Century Fox set a new record in foreign box office sales. Fox earned $2.26 billion from theaters around the world, beating the previous international box office record of $2.24 billion (seen by Warner Bros. in 2007).

While Avatar’s release may have given Fox the final push towards its record-breaking year, the studio’s big winner internationally was the summer’s animated hit Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs. The third film in the Ice Age franchise saw a cumulative of $687.2 million at foreign theaters, making it one of the industry’s top 3 highest international grossers of all »
