But that isn’t without merit to believe BOR is the correct BO. I mean the dailies breakdown for IC is simply too weird. Why is new year day has the exact same gross as Christmas? Also January 7, Sunday decline was only 28% but every other movies are dropping in the range of 35-45%. If we adjust all these abnormalities, BOR number looks more accurate.

Then explain it to me why we still couldn’t get back our 11bn annual domestic BO.

Can somebody confirm Iron claw box office? BOM and the numbers both seem to have overstated its number by at least 500k.

they pick chicken run over nimona? Anyway boy and the heron is the first anime that got nominated at the bafta for best animation

Barbie didn’t do well at the BAFTA, missing in both film and directing nomination. KOTFM almost got shut out completely in the core category including best actor for Leo, lily for best actress, and both director and screenplay, but somehow still managed to sneak in best film top 5. zone of interest , all of us strangers and saltburn all overperform.

Both elemental and wish prove that Disney is still strong brand in overseas. Their overseas BO are still among the highest for 2023 animation.

USC Scripter Award American Fiction Killers of the Flower Moon Oppenheimer Origin Poor Things Origin surprises! So the last minute surge isn't some fluke.

Same goes to Malaysia. We got turning red but not soul, likely because we never had TR release back in 2022 but we did get Soul in get 2021

A24 did give the movie a big marketing push. Just I didn’t expect the academy members is where they choose to lay low for the marketing. Probably they are aware just how challenging to get three best picture slot in a year. The last studio that achieved this was Lionsgate in 89th Oscar.

I seriously think there isn’t any room left for others to last minute sneak in the final 10. This feel like a year where all 10 spots will be taken up even under 6-10 flexible number of nominees. But if I have to choose the vulnerable one, Maestro would be the one for potential omission since I don’t think the movie is getting screenplay nomination. That movie got some strange backlash and that is without the movie being super rave or controversial like GB, three billboard, la la land.

This is when you are up for the run in best Picture race. I don't think there is any slot left for Heron. 3k from 625 is just normal good not something worth screaming. Fabelmans, Bottoms and Holdovers got better PTA at this point of run. Unless the movie start leg out like PT, AF would still pretty much stuck in a 10-20m range like most of the platform release. AF got 90% posttrak, one point lower than Holdovers. I would expect their run to be similar from here.

I honestly start thinking if Leo will get crowded out especially in a competitive year. He doesn't have as much as passionate support like other contenders. As for winner, I think Murphy has some advantage here since he play a dramatic role as compared to a more comedy tone for Paul.

Are they trying to Andrea riseborough Origin into best picture lineup?

Oppenheimer win eight CC but unlike the past three winners which took both directing and screenplay categories, Oppenheimer came with only director win.

For platform releases, American fiction doing less than what I hoped. 1.9m or 3000 PTA is weaker than holdovers first wide expansion weekend. On the other hand, Poor things PTA is really encouraging. Now we know the movie is special enough to secure an impression among audience.

If wouldn’t for SK still on its way, I will start my doubt if this can pass 600m. Anyway, the holds post-holiday hasn’t been good. Probably the holiday feel good tone means there is no more hook for people to seek out the movie after the holiday.

Unexpectedly the movie continue to match avatar’s hold in post holiday, and way better than NWH at the same point of run. If the hold continue to match avatar 2, with some extra help from Japan, 440m is within reach the final total range.

Suzume is pretty much within my expectation but Heron completely overperforms. The annual Ghibli film festival organized by GKIDS clearly is a successful gospel that contribute to this overperformance, especially Heron also perform way better than other Western countries.

100m Crisis averted?

If IC followed Priscilla, this should end in the range of 32-34m. The consolation prize for getting ignored by award season. On the other hand, ZOI holds very good in its limited run. A24 should have no problem getting two best picture nominees slot for the first time.

Surprisingly Searchlight didn't expand the location further this week after the GG win. In fact they drop another 170 locations when the hold is so good.

officially pass 40m. It is now holding like an art house movie than a anime or animation.

Boy and the Heron getting in PGA animation is a big news. This is the first time foreign language animation got in PGA. The first for Miyazaki and Ghibli (They snubbed SA back then), and the second GKIDS nomination in PGA! If even PGA can be this open to a non-english foreign animation from GKIDS, they snubbed 11 out of 12 GKIDS eventual Oscar nominees after all, I would expect Oscar to be even receptive. Heron really stand a chance to beat ATSV now.
