30.4B Yen is exactly what Sage Rat said earlier.
He also said $304 million, which is but I was questioning, but I think I see what they did: that appears to be at current exchange rates.
So, that happened: this past weekend jumped Maleficent over the 4x mark, ably grabbing Gravity’s blockbuster spot on the all-time box-office list.
I know, right? I was completely wrong.
Yeah, I’d noticed that you’d noticed – but so long as I was gonna mention that it hit that milestone, I couldn’t resist throwing in the quote from upthread.
By contrast, it’s now about to pass UP for Spot #60 on the all-time list – and I don’t figure on throwing in a quote from anybody to mark that, because in the absence of a bizarrely specific remark to the contrary, what’s to copy-and-paste?
Here, I’ll help you out:
I don’t think there’s any chance that Maleficent will ever do nearly as well as, say, Up.
There, now you’ve got someone to quote when it happens. 
lol. Just to clarify, I meant “I know, right?” in the sense of - to quote the Urban Dictionary:
Sure, but you were all set either way once you noted – entendres aside – that “Angelina Jolie has way longer legs than I expected.” Her blockbuster is undeniable.
Be that as it may, glancing at who’s ahead of her on the all-time chart is kinda remarkable: you’ve got Daniel Craig as James Bond, and Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones, and Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow – and if I’m being too subtle, Christian Bale as Batman, and Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man, and Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man; whole lotta protagonist-with-a-penis stories, is what I’m saying.
Harry Potter alone thusly makes the grade more than half-a-dozen times.
So, y’know, full marks to Ms. Jolie for hanging with the big boys.
It’s also now in the Top 100 All-Time Domestic B.O. leaders
Just to make it official – with due regard to Chronos – the latest figures now place Maleficent ahead of Up, in the top sixty on the all-time box-office list.
Aaaaaaand, Maleficent is finally playing at the discount theaters, 11 weeks after its initial release.
I’ll make a point of going to see it sometime over the next week (both the nearby discount theaters picked it up).
This quote is from 4 weeks ago.
So, to compare: Spider-man 2 and Godzilla both took only 6 weeks before doing the rounds at the discount circuit.
Maleficent has been playing at the discount theater near me since Mid-July.
Ah, folks 'round your parts must burn through movies quick, crazyjoe.
Seems as I first made that “It’s still not in discount theaters yet” post, you had just then gotten it at your discount theater (give or take a week).
A year or two ago, I started an “In Praise of Discount Theaters” Thread. Pretty much everyone who posted in that Thread said that they did not have any discount theaters in their area. So, I figured I had to be the SDMB’s sole discount theater watchdog.
Do you make use of your local discount theater(s)?
I love them. Much better than Netflixing or Redboxing the movies that you’re not excited about enough to pay the typical steep ticket prices.
I saw it yesterday, and I thought it was lovely.
While it’s now down to second-run theaters, this weekend’s returns put Maleficent yet higher up the all-time box-office list: passing one of Keanu’s outings as Neo, and one of Pixar’s smash hits – each of 'em a sequel surpassing the original that fueled it, but neither of 'em a match for the new occupant of rung #58.
Bumping to note that Maleficent has now passed X-Men: Days Of Future Past to become the second-biggest hit of the year (and reach #56 on the all-time list).
Maleficent is #4 for the year and is currently sitting behind Captain America: The Winter Soldier, The Lego Movie, and Transformers: Age of Extinction.
Guardians of the Galaxy will likely push it back down to #5 this weekend.
Well, domestically, yes. But worldwide, what I just said.
Bumping to note that it’s just now passed 750M worldwide.
It will also go on to make more money than most movies do in the coming years and decades, the way all good children’s films do, especially Disney films, because Disney is brilliant at repackaging and reselling to new generations.
And again, as a former little girl, I thought it was a lovely film and a lovely message, and I would have watched it a hundred times if it had been available when I was little.
