GodzillaMinusZero IMAX box office record

IMAX execs were up all night celebrating because GodzillaMinusZero aka #ゴジラ-0.0 just shattered records for international live-action films in the format with a global IMAX opening of 21.3 million USD. That total breaks down to 12.7 million from the US market and 8.6 million from overseas territories. This debut is an all-time record for the category, even though the film launched in only 24 markets while other massive titles rolled out almost globally. For context, TheFantasticFourFirstSteps opened with 26.6 million in IMAX (10.6M overseas, 16M domestic), ProjectHailMary brought in 27.6 million (11.2M overseas, 16.4M domestic), and F1TheMovie scored 27.7 million (14.9M overseas, 12.8M domestic). The gap between those near-global debuts and Godzilla's limited launch makes the achievement even more insane given it still managed to get close to their numbers. #Godzilla #GodzillaMinusZero
