    It's already earn 100 million dollar in the domestic box office. But if it fails to reach beyond it's 210 million budget, would that be considered a flop even though it can earn a lot more in the foreign region?

    If it were to fail to reach $210m stateside, then that would not go without notice.

    However, it is a virtual certainty that it will reach that amount.

    A movie that fails to earn it's cost is a bomb. That includes foreign and domestic box office. The odds of that happening with AOE are slim to none.

    I am quite surprised there was such a huge drop on Monday though. Probably has to do with this being the first of the films to actually be released on a weekend so I guess a Monday drop was more likely.

    And to be considered a success it must make back at least double it's budget.

    Big weekend to Monday drops aren't anything new, even in the summer. 10 mil is still a good number, and it will most likely pick up again when the July 4th Holiday comes up.

    The numbers will probably increase as the week goes on. There is almost always a noticeable drop off between Sunday - Monday.
