Philippine Box Office Recap 36

To check out the previous recap click here and as always some reminders and disclaimers
  • The following box office stats are from the ever awesome Box Office Mojo's Philippine Box Office Index. Thus, my box office comparisons and analysis are only limited to what Box Office Mojo has in its records
  • Studios and local distributors sometimes issues press releases about the box office performance of their movies and there are instances that they do not exactly match the data Box Office Mojo have in hand. I'm not sure how wide Box Office Mojo's scope is with our local theaters but for the purposes of a consistent discussion and analysis I will only focus on the numbers posted at Box Office Mojo.
  • I added some stuff like the Mission Impossible : Ghost Protocol box office for 2012 since Box Office Mojo does not include that 2011 holdover on their Top Movies 2012 list. Meanwhile the box office numbers for the holdovers from the MMFF last year are not on BOM's list so they're not on here as well.
  • Box Office Mojo does not have the numbers for Ayala Cinemas Exclusive My Week with Marilyn and local movie Gun Guni so it's not on the charts below.

Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 opened with a massive 166.9 million pesos, the second biggest opening after The Avengers (277 million pesos). The final installment is on track to reach the 300 million pesos mark and could challenge The Amazing Spider-Man for the 2nd spot for the year to date charts. Meanwhile, Skyfall bumps The Hunger Games off the top 10 as the latest Bond flick has already 141 million pesos edging the novel adaptatio's 139 million pesos gross. The next installment of The Hunger Games saga opens on November 2013 and will likely fill the void of Twilight (box office wise). Let's wait and see. .
