Prometheus Box Office

[Blacklabel]

Dude getting his head bashed in.

[Ratchetcomand]

I found the movie to pretty violent. The movie was a lot darker then most PG-13 movies that I've seen in the past few years (2006 - now).

[PRI. HUDSON]

It was not THAT violent.

C-Section.

Maybe I just don't see it being that BAD. Oh well.

[OmegaZilla]

I don't either, but it's because we are used to horror films. Generic audience is not.

I think if they just used 1 or 2 quicker cuts, it wouldn't have been bad at all.  What I think sold it the most, was Noomi's acting.

Prometheus Outsells Avatar on Digital Download. Also Blu-Ray accounts for 71% of all physical media purchases made.

Twentieth Century Fox believes "Prometheus" has discovered a flicker of hope for homevideo, as the studio's vigorous promotion of a lower-cost, purchase-only early window sparked a notable number of first-time digital buyers and previous renters to own the sci-fi thriller for $14.99.

What's more, with a whopping 71% of subsequent "Prometheus" discs selling in Blu-ray in its first days to market, the three-week online pre-sale did not alienate buyers of the premium physical format.

"Results in those first weeks were really solid," said Mike Dunn, president of home entertainment at Fox, which does not disclose digital sales totals but shared some details of returns with Variety. " 'Prometheus' (downloads) actually outsold 'Avatar' by 11%, and while digital sell-through product is usually about 3% of total revenue in the first year of release, this will be more like 12%."

403,170,142

is that it now?

[zuzuki]

^^^ it hasn't been updated in a while.probably 410 million

[Gazz]

No, it didn't make all that much more in Italy and was taken out of China after completing it's 5 week run (they have rules as to how long a film can play).

$403 is the official final figure, perhaps it made close to $405 after they stopped tracking the film but it simply didn't have the legs or territory to reach $410m. Good box office haul nonetheless.

On home-video Prometheus has opened to $18m on Blu-Ray and $6m on DVD in North America.

Prometheus 2nd week home video figures for North America are in and The-Numbers.com have made a mess of them.

It took another $5m on Blu-Ray and $3m on DVD. However The-Numbers only added $1m to the overall Blu-Ray total from last week. Total should be at close to/over $23m on BR for an overall home video total of around $32m after 2 weeks.

completely expected to be honest. Still, it's done pretty damn well.

The Intouchables (WTF is that?)
