* Down from #8 last week to #22
* However, i think there's an error in the Weekend gross, because if Japan alone grossed $2.4m last weekend, how can it be only $1.9m total overseas including all other markets
* But i think the Total gross of $78m looks about right

PHANTOM: Release Dates vs. Others

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0293508/releaseinfo

ARGENTINA - February 17th (Thu)

Feb 3 - Lemony Snickets, Seed of Chucky, Mar Adentro, Finding Neverland
Feb 10 - Alexander, Million Dollar Baby, Birth
Feb 17 - Elektra, Phantom of the Opera
Feb 24 - The Aviator, Son of the Mask, Being Julia
Mar 3 - Wimbledon, A Very Long Engagement, les Choristes

CHILE - February 17th (Thu)

CZECH REPUBLIC - February 17th (Thu)[/quote]

Feb 3 - National Treasure, Team America
Feb 10 - The Aviator, Ray, Alfie, Flight of the Phoenix, A Very Long Engagement
Feb 17 - Blade 3, Pooh's Heffalump Movie, Phantom of the Opera
Feb 24 - Lemony Snickets
Mar 3 - Meet The Fockers, Finding Neverland, Racing Stripes, Million Dollar Baby

PANAMA - February 18th (Fri)

ARGENTINA - February 17th (Thu)

Feb 3 - Lemony Snickets, Seed of Chucky, Mar Adentro, Finding Neverland
Feb 10 - Alexander, Million Dollar Baby, Birth
Feb 17 - Elektra, Phantom of the Opera
Feb 24 - The Aviator, Son of the Mask, Being Julia
Mar 3 - Wimbledon, A Very Long Engagement, les Choristes

Argentinian numbers normally match-up with Mexico, generally, so one shouldn't expect too much here for Phantom. Plus, Phantom will again be matching up against Elektra - a movie which it has been opening against in most Latin/South American markets so far.

Weekend:

Million Dollar Baby - $164,000
Finding Neverland - $145,000
Bridget Jones: The Edge Of Reason - $83,829 (41)

Weekly:

Moulin Rouge - $327,511 (35 TC)
Chicago - $267,080 (52 TC)
Closer - $202,622 (36 TC)

Don't expect more than a $100k opening,

CHILE - February 17th (Thu)

Moulin Rouge - $116,140 (18)
Chicago - $72,447 (16)
Shall We Dance? - $67,633 (22)*NY

Not much can be expected here as well, however, its quite surprising that Moulin Rouge still dominates these regions over Chicago..

CZECH REPUBLIC - February 17th (Thu)

Feb 3 - National Treasure, Team America
Feb 10 - The Aviator, Ray, Alfie, Flight of the Phoenix, A Very Long Engagement
Feb 17 - Blade 3, Pooh's Heffalump Movie, Phantom of the Opera
Feb 24 - Lemony Snickets
Mar 3 - Meet The Fockers, Finding Neverland, Racing Stripes, Million Dollar Baby

Phantom has a fight on its hands here, opening against Blade Trinity and Pooh's Heffalump Movie - 2 movies with huge opening potential.

Chicago did really well here back in 2003, opening with $80k, beating Catch Me If You Can, Independence Day, Lara Croft 2, Jurassic Park 2...etc.

Let's hope for an opening close to $100k
