    by Peter Knegt on May 7, 2013

    by Peter Knegt on May 6, 2013

    While most box office reports this afternoon are reasonably freaking out about "Iron Man 3," there was also a notably strong debut at the specialty box office. Instead of iron, it was ice as Ariel Vromen's "The Iceman" debuted on 4 theaters."Iceman" -- which stars Michael Shannon, Winona Ryder, Chri...

    by Tom Brueggemann on May 5, 2013

    In a weekend dominated by the domestic opening of "Iron Man 3," two films from Millennium Films, both of which showed at Toronto last year to modest attention score surprisingly solid openings in limited play. "The Iceman" and "What Maisie Knew" both starred respected actors (hardly a guarantee for ...

    'Iron Man 3' Crushes Weekend Competition, But Can't Save Box Office: 'Pain & Gain' Plummets

    by Tom Brueggemann on May 5, 2013

    Disney and Marvel are chortling with glee at the massive global success of "The Iron Man 3," finally adding late arrival North America to its huge foreign openings. The domestic numbers rank a bit below what "The Avengers" did one year ago, but overtaking that number was a tall order. Even so, $175 ...

    by Tom Brueggemann on May 4, 2013

    Disney/Marvel's "Iron Man 3" added the U.S. and Canada as the last major territories to open Thursday night, amassing a $68,312,000 total through Friday to end up as the #8 best (in unadjusted figures) opening gross ever.

    Weekend Preview: 'Iron Man 3' a Smart Superhero Flick; Critics Applaud 'What Maisie Knew' and 'Something in the Air,' Mixed on 'Post Tenebras Lux'

    by Anne Thompson and Ryan Lattanzio on May 3, 2013

    This weekend, the latest installment of "Iron Man" soars through multiplexes after racking up more than $300 million overseas. Could it score a $150 million opening, or beat 2012's number one movie, "The Avengers"' $1.5 billion total worldwide gross? It is a Marvel sequel, after all.

    Arthouse Audit: 'Mud' Scores Sole Strong Indie Opener Amid Specialized Market Struggles

    by Tom Brueggemann on April 28, 2013

    "Mud" nearly made the weekend box office top 10 in only 363 theaters, towering over all the other new openings this week, none of which had a PSA of even $12,000 with limited New York/Los Angeles two to four theater openings. For the third time in several weeks, and in this case already in the first...

    Specialty Box Office: 'Mud' Starts Off Strong; 'At Any Price' Tanks

    by Peter Knegt on April 28, 2013

    Jeff Nichols' "Mud" started off very strong in its first frame this weekend. Opening on 363 screens, it was at a much bigger risk than typical platform releases starting in a handful of theaters in New York and Los Angeles. But it paid off -- thanks perhaps to the presence of Matthew McConaughey...

    More 'Pain' Than 'Gain' in Friday Box Office

    by Tom Brueggemann on April 27, 2013

    The expected May blockbusters can't come quickly enough. Yesterday's top 10 grosses, including two underperforming new releases with prominent stars, had the smallest total since early February. At $23 million, this marked not only a sharp drop from last week's $29 million, but last year's $28 milli...

    Indie Box Office Preview: How Much 'Mud' Money Will McConaughey and Company Make?

    by Peter Knegt on April 26, 2013

    Matthew McConaughey continues a rather constant presence in movie theaters this past year or so with "Mud" -- one of the best reviewed films of his recent lot (which also includes "Magic Mike," "The Paperboy," "Killer Joe" and "Bernie" -- all in the past 12 months). Almost a year after it debuted in...

    'Django Unchained' Will Show in China: Tarantino Agrees to SARFT Demand for More Cuts

    by Anne Thompson on April 26, 2013

    Hollywood sees dollar signs when they look at China. It's the land of new opportunity. But navigating with this burgeoning market has its hazards. The main issue is one that will never be resolved, not on the creative co-production side and not at the distribution end either. And that is SARFT, the ...
