Robert Pattinson’s Remember Me has been called a downright box-office flop by some. That isn’t correct. A box-office disappointment, sure, but definitely not a flop considering its $16 million price tag.
Even if Summit Entertainment spent that same amount — or several million more — promoting and distributing the film, Remember Me will most likely end up in the black after worldwide box-office rentals (not grosses, as exhibitors keep about 50% of the share) and ancillary revenues are added up.
At the domestic box office — United States and Canada — Remember Me has grossed $14.5 million after 12 days. Day-to-day revenues have varied widely, with increases and decreases at times reaching 20%.
Overseas, Remember Me has opened in only a handful of major movie markets since March 11. According to country figures found at Box Office Mojo, Remember Me has grossed $5.42 million at the international box office as of March 21. That places its worldwide total at about $20 million.
The three top markets have been Russia with $1.824 million, Brazil with $1.118m, and Australia with $916K. Further down the list are Greece with $316K and Sweden with $279K.
Remember Me will open in major markets such as Japan, China, the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Spain, South Korea, Mexico, and France in the coming weeks. Expect revenues to soar even if Remember Me doesn’t turn out to be a bona fide success.
















If you want to teach a course in sh!tty marketing of a film, just use Summit’s marketing of this film. Why was Rob doing promos for the film when it opened two weeks later.? Do they forget Americans have the attention span of a toddler. On top of that the film opened on the second week of a 200 mil Alice and 100 mil Greene Zone. Seriously? Plus they cut all the love scenes. (notice how they didn’t show any close up of kissing scene between Rob and Emilie) That’s not by accident. According to Rob they cut a lot of the scenes to get a PG-13 for the Twilighters. I guess also not to upset the Robstens. Too bad none of them showed up to support the film anyway. He really need to start working for a better and more established studio.
Here the film comes out next week.. and i think in a lot of european countries it isnt out yet. Dont you think they still can make a bit off a difference? 😦
this weekend has gained 1 million in Italy (which is a good result) practically without any kind of advertising, then only Rob’s fans made the difference 🙂
Remember me was a great film, I have seen it three times, screenings are only twice a day now.
