When was it released? Was this a significant time?
26 May 2011 (UK)- this is pre-summer therefore, the target audience will be people around the age of school children/or above, who are off school for half term before the summer holidays. Meaning, that the film was released at a very smart time in order to rake in ratings.
How many screens was it released on, here and the US? (opening weekend)
$86,035,000 (USA) (29 May 2011) (3,615 Screens)
£10,409,017 (UK) (
29 May 2011) (469 Screens)
Trailer - what sort of narrative expectations do you develop?  How successful do you consider the trailer to be?  Look at the full length trailer and the teaser trailer if there is one.
I think the trailer gives a really short, but comedical preview of the film and highlights the significant points of the film but not to a long/lengthy extent, which would ruin the film. So in that sense the trailer succeeds in capturing the audience and persuading them to go and see the film.
