DOMINO

France based Metropolitan Filmexport financed Domino for $50m and New Line acquired US rights for $15m.  After moving around the release calendar, New Line opened Domino in 2,223 theaters to a terrible $4,670,120 and audiences gave the film a C+ cinemascore.  Domino declined 51.3% in its second frame to $2,275,531 and 84.6% in its third frame to $350,430.  It was out of release by the end of its fourth week with a total of $10,169,202 leaving New Line with $5.6m after theaters take their percentage of the gross, which would cover less than 1/3 of their P&A costs and none of their acquisition expense.  Summit Entertainment and Davis Films sold the film to overseas distributors, except for in France, where Metropolitan would distribute.  Metropolitan opened Domino in 286 theaters to a poor $781,043 and stopped reporting its numbers after two weeks with only $1,127,327.  Entertainment saw the highest overseas numbers in the UK with just $2,220,079.  The overseas total was $12,775,300 across numerous distributors.
