Monday morning: AMC reports that Taylor Swift: Tour for the Ages Published its first global weekend $123.5 million; That amount was split into $92.8 million domestic and post $30.7 million From 94 international regions in 4527 places. No disrespect here to AMC who did a fantastic job on the film, and the Swifts should be happy with the roughly 60% take in grosses, but the question is how much this musical pic could have made overseas with a major studio in Overseas international marketing force. It probably doesn’t make a difference at the end of the day, since the Swifts walk away with the lion’s share of the BO in a way they probably wouldn’t have with a major studio release. The spoils in this case of the $200 million global opening will go to the studio, not necessarily the Swifts.
