Muscled crime fighters prevail here, but fat panda bears dominate over there:
... Kung Fu Panda 2 decisively seized for the second consecutive round the weekend’s No. 1 box office spot on the foreign theatrical circuit, generating $52.5 million from 10,267 venues in 55 markets and pushing its overseas gross total to $280 million. ...
As the Mojo tells us:
... [Panda] took first place in all ten of its new markets, including France ($7.2 million), Germany ($6.8 million) and Spain ($2.8 million). It also continued to play well in holdover markets ... [T]he animated sequel should eventually pass the original Kung Fu Panda's $416.3 million foreign total. ...
Stateside, the bear has earned $143,343,000, meaning it's now made north of $423 million on a worldwide basis.

Soon it would be a 500 million $ flop.
It is a lovely film--better than the first. It's marketing was botched, but with DVD and TV sales, plus merchandising, it'll still turn a nice profit.
I saw it the other day and thought it was better than the first one. Hope they release another sequel (I can't believe I'm saying this!)
