The site was founded in 1999, and was bought in 2008 by IMDb, which itself is owned by Amazon. The website is widely used within the film industry as a source of data. From 2002–11, Box Office Mojo maintained popular forums on its website. HistoryBrandon Gray began the site in 1999. In 2002, Gray partnered with Sean Saulsbury and grew the site to nearly two million readers.[2] In July 2008, the company was purchased by Amazon.com through its subsidiary, the Internet Movie Database.[3][4] From 2002–11, Box Office Mojo had forums, which were a popular place for box office "fanatics", and the site at one time was home to several popular movie games and quizzes, tests (e.g., Fantasy Box Office (created in 2006) and Create a Year of Movies), until these were summarily canceled for undisclosed reasons.{{cn|date=August 2014}} Box Office Mojo had forums with more than 16,500 registered users. On November 2, 2011 the forums were officially closed along with any user accounts, and users were invited to join IMDb's message boards, even though not all the same features were available there.[5] The IMDB forums were subsequently closed February 20, 2017.[6] Tracking still follows closely to the day by day, actual tabulation of distributors, making it possible to see the general trend of a film's "earnings trajectory".[7] Website redirect to IMDbOn October 10, 2014, all traffic to Box Office Mojo was redirected to IMDb's box office page,[8][9] before returning the following day.[10] Queries about the closure to IMDb and Amazon representatives were met with no response. Neither Brandon Gray, who founded the website but left several years ago after its sale to Amazon, nor Ray Subers, the operator at that time, would respond either.[11] On Ray Subers' Twitter[12]{{page needed|date=August 2015}} account, he revealed the website's return, but also stated he would not answer any questions pertaining to closure.[13] Subers subsequently left the website seven months later.[14] Box Office Mojo InternationalThe international section covers the weekly box office of 50 countries and includes historical box office information from three more, as well as provides information for box office results for individual films from up to 107. The site also creates an overall weekend chart, combining all box office returns from around the world, excluding the United States and Canada. The overall weekend chart tracks the Top 40 films as well as approximately fifty additional films with no ranking. Box Office Mojo International also reports the release schedule of upcoming films for Australia, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Japan, Lithuania, the Netherlands, the Philippines, Norway, Russia and the CIS, South Korea, China, Taiwan, the United Kingdom, and India. The site additionally has yearly and all time features for its various territories. However, Box Office Mojo does not include all the international films, especially some with high international box office, in the Mojo Yearly and All Time Worldwide Box Office Charts.{{cn|date=March 2019}} References1. ^{{cite web |title=Boxofficemojo.com Traffic, Demographics and Competitors - Alexa |url=https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/boxofficemojo.com |website=www.alexa.com |accessdate=2 October 2018 |language=en}} 2. ^"About Box Office Mojo" {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101119145314/http://boxofficemojo.com/about/?ref=ft |date=2010-11-19 }}.
