Mexico Box Office | With booming ER, Kongzilla reaches $27.7M and Kung Fu P4nd4 $33.1M.

[Purple Minion]

Weekly numbers. Fairly quiet days: MJ2 reaches US$11.5M, Little Prince on its way to the predicted US$6M and Spectre loses steam. No Thu info for TGD so guess the 4-day weekend will be reported on Monday.

MJ1 first week in Mexico $14m (CF did $12m). Almost 4m admissions!

 

MP2 first week 11.55m, adm 3.88m.

 

 

 

[Purple Minion]

Admission-wise the Sinsajos are not that far away after one full week!

TGD is underperforming in Europe. Would that be a sign of things to come here, or would the Mexican market remain stubbornly loyal to big studio animation?

[Purple Minion]

Well I for sure wasn't expecting such a low OW for TGD ... eclipsed by HT2 and less than half of IO   May be in risk to reach US$15M!

 

Deadline

• TGD #1, US$3.6M OW.
• MJ2 #2. US$14.4M total. Weekend must have been close to US$3M, a 66% drop.

 

BoxOffice.com

• Victor Frankenstein #3, US$1.8M OW. Higher than Last Witch Hunter.

 

To be updated...

Actuals are in. Horrible start for TGD, less than US$3.5M, MJ2 was this close to win the weekend even with a 60%+ drop...

 

 

Also one of the worst Pixar OWs on record!

Weekly gross. TGD barely breaks 75M lc, US$10M may not happen. Gulp at Frankenstein earning more than half of the US gross

 

 

 

[Purple Minion]

Weekend figures, to be updated...

 

Deadline

• TGD total US$6.7M, translating into a US$2+ weekend so repeats at #1. Surprising, decent hold.

 

Boxoffice.com

• In the Heart of the Sea: #2, US$1.8M OW.
• Victor Frankenstein: US$845K weekend, US$3.4M total, #1 international market so far.

Weekend gross, horrible start of December with TGD and MJ2 under-performing, up to SW7 to lift things up! Little Prince still in the Top 5 and close to US$6M.

 

 

Some updated totals in LC:

 

HT2: 398,022,570

Spectre: 190,610,470

Seems everyone is doing Christmas shopping in Mexico rather than going to the movies, or just saving their money for SW7. Unlucky for The Force, ER is the lowest ever.

In the Heart of the Sea this close to win the week!

 

[Purple Minion]

Weekend figures!

 

BoxOffice.com

• TGD: US$8.7M total, which means a US$1.3M weekend and probably #1 again. Drop was only 30% so it could reach USS10M after all.
• ITHOTS: US$1.1M weekend, #2, US$3.8M total.
• Krampus: Flop! US$0.27K OW. Even Venezuela had a higher gross.

 

Deadline

• Victor Frankenstein: US$4.22M total.

Purple Minion what's the expectation for SW7? OD, OW & total? 

[Purple Minion]

No idea on the OD/OW since it will be very front-loaded, but Christmas should give it legs. Total probably over 700M lc and US$40M+, ER is abysmal.

[Purple Minion]

Had forgotten to upload the weekend numbers, here they are. Last Witch Hunter resilient, 7 weeks in the Top 10. TGD should hold his head high by reaching US$10M, but MJ2 may not do US$20M since everything will be annihilated by The Force.

Unfortunately the only available gross I could find for the entire saga is:

 

Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones

OW: US$3,387,551, 33,384,993 lc, 500 theatres.

Extended OW: US$5,704,170, 56,215,736 lc, 500 theatres.

Total: US$8,793,561, 87,487,992 lc.

 

which looks very underwhelming, it fizzled quite quickly. But market has grown exponentially since then. I'd be surprised if it opens with less than 150M lc.So I forecast over US$30M, but could go as high as US$40M if WOM is strong. Of course ER could suddenly improve or implode.

Meanwhile, Star Wars VII seems to be breaking pre-release records! It's going to be huge ...the original tre-quel is a cult classic.
