  1. Due to GT doing $17M on opening weekend (including previews) and only $11M internationally, I think the movie might not break even, even if China and Japan releases are right around the corner. I think the only country where the movie did good was France, where it will reach 1M admissions (estimated $9M) and do a similar score to Ford v Ferrari, and much better than Rush or Need for Speed. I really think the trailers killed the movie's potential, despite great WOM: people who heard about the movie could have seen the trailer afterwards and said "meh might not be for me, I don't see why there's so much fuss about this". GT will do good in VOD though, and Blomkamp really made a crowdpleasing movie - wouldn't be surprised if Sony keeps him around for another PlayStation adaptation.
  2. Conjuring 3 arrives with a bang in French theaters. Biggest OD (without previews) since... Star Wars 9. Curfew has been put back to 11PM (was 9PM previously), allowing evening showings. Also, the max gauge has been raised to 65% capacity (previously 35%). Decent OD for Nomadland. Le Discours starts low due to its large exposition in 600+ cinemas.

  4. Most movies will drop -50/-60% this week compared to the previous one and new releases won't start high. However as the weather will worsen next Wednesday, those will maintain pretty well next week. DS will definitely stay in theaters as long as it is in the top 10. Also the offering for teens will be pretty low until at least mid-June. 1M admissions is definitely on the table - didn't happen for a japanese movie in 10+ years.
  5. Demon Slayer 1st on Saturday. Family movies making their usual comeback during weekends. There's a slight but low chance that Demon Slayer could be #1 this week (it will depend of its performance on the next three days). It would be the first time for a Japanese movie since Howl's Moving Castle back in January 2005... But honestly I think Adieu les cons will stay #1 by a small margin as it will perform better on Mon/Thu. However there's a clear, summer weather in France this week until next Wednesday. Pretty much every movie will drop hard (-50% to -60%). But the following week will see the comeback of rain and thunder.

  8. No school for most children on Wednesdays, giving a boost to all family and animated movies on Wed
  9. There's no way Demon Slayer only does 13k on Wednesday. I see it more like 25/10/20/40/30/7/8 for a 125k weekend and 140k full week. Btw, the top 10 number of showings have been released: Three newcomers in that top 10: The Father in 3rd with 8.6k showings, Extinct (Les Bouchetrous) with 4.8k showings and Meander with 4.7k. And the #9hDesHalles: Great performance for The Father, as Florian Zeller was present at the showing. Very good score for Meander with 49 admissions but there was also the director and the main actress.
  10. I will add though that Broly had a very steep drop in second week due to three reasons: - 100k admissions in previews that were counted in the first week. - First week of Broly benefited from the Printemps du Cinéma - a nationwide promotion where every ticket is €4 for everyone during three days. The promotion ended at the beginning of the second week, and coming from €4 to €12 in some cinemas does not help. - It is a movie based on an anime and as such requires knowledge of said anime or manga to understand the story and the stakes. Therefore it will have trouble to attract a larger public, but diehard fans seeing the movie multiple times are a small but significant part of the admissions. Demon Slayer only shares the third point. It will definitely drop in second week but only by a more standard 50%, maybe 60% at most. Not 75% like Broly did.
  11. Because monday was a holiday here (lundi de Pentecôte) And not every distributor gives numbers on that day. Also the official number was released for Adieu Les Cons: 357,293 admissions in 5 days, not counting monday. ALC should cross 500k on the full week. It also crossed 1M overall.

The latest Miami buddy cop movie crosses 1M admissions in 12 days with a low drop for a blockbuster (only -35%). The one-take WW1 film is definitely on pace for 2M in France, as it gets the best hold of the top 10. "The Lion" doesn't roar, "Rabbit" doesn't jump very high Le Lion, the new comedy featuring Dany Boon, completely bombs with a performance a tad higher than Le Dindon, Which completely crashed last september. however with such a large release on 700 cinemas, 1M was the absolute minimum. The movie will probably get 500k but will not go higher. Jojo Rabbit opens at #4 with a semi-limited release, and obtains the best average of the entire week but its start could definitely could have been higher with more prints. Behind, the whodunit french/european thriller Les Traducteurs doesn't write itself in history, getting a bit less than 100k admissions in 5 days. It's trailed by another french comedy, L'esprit de famille, and Just Mercy, the trial drama featuring Michael B. Jordan. Both Bombshell and Je voudrais que quelqu'un m'attende quelque part have a similar drop and a similar amount of admissions over 2 weeks, while Wasp Network concludes the top 10 with a mediocre average.
  14. OD January 29 releases Let's be honest: this is not going to be a good week. Le Lion, the new comedy featuring Dany Boon, is crashing hard with 53k admissions on its OD - but nearly 30k of them were done in previews. On over 700 cinemas, the average is abysmal. It's very similar to Le Dindon, released last september, which was released on a very wide release and did less than 300k admissions total. Jojo Rabbit takes second place with a semi-limited release - I honestly expected Disney to bring out more screens for a sextuple Oscar nominee. It has the better average of the pack, with and without previews. Let's hope it can broaden its diffusion over the weeks. 500k seems an interesting goal for the movie. Next up, two small-sized animated movies: Mission Kathmandu and Racetime. The latter has nearly twice the screens as the former, and without factoring the large part of preview screenings, they don't attract that much. The offer for younglings will be filled mostly in the following weeks when the February break will start. Two other french movies do not manage to catch their audience: the french comedy L'esprit de famille and the thriller/whodunit The Translators. Both attract less than 20k moviegoers on their OD, previews included, despite both releasing in around 350 cinemas. Wasp Network and Just Mercy, with around 200 cinemas, manage to get a decent average, by being over 10k admissions, but they won't go very far at the boxoffice either. Despite the sizeable number of new releases, there's a very good chance that Bad Boys for Life and 1917 keep the top two spots at the weekly boxoffice.

Take over the french box-office! The Bad Boys are back in full force and they're striking the french market. Bad Boys For Life takes #1 with nearly 560k admissions in 5 days (previews included), which is a pace slightly inferior to Bad Boys II (OW: 614k) which was released in 2003. It's still the strongest start for Will Smith in a leading role since Suicide Squad in 2016. 1.5M is guaranteed and critics are also good (4.0 out of 5 on Allociné, 5.8 out of 10 on SensCritique - best score in the saga). 1917 holds the line well and falls to second place with a very decent -29% drop from week to week, crossing the famed 1M admissions mark. It's now cruising to 2M as Oscars are approaching. The podium is completed by the french dramedy Je voudrais que quelqu'un m'attende quelque part, with a decent-ish average of more than 400 moviegoers per cinema. This movie will aim for 500k. Bombshell opens at #4 with a disappointing performance despite its wide release. The lack of Oscar noms is definitely detrimental, compared to #5, Little Women, which has the best hold in the top 10 with a -10% drop. 1M admissions seems more and more likely for Greta Gerwig. The rest of the top 10 is composed of movies in continuation: Star Wars IX will definitely struggle to reach 6M as it drops at #6. Une belle équipe doesn't hold very well and will be replaced with other french comedies in theaters soon. Spies in Disguise finally gets to 1M with very good drops, as the movie attracted a young audience every weekend. Jumanji keeps a great career while staying in the top 10 and Les Vétos also grabs a bit of admissions to push itself towards 700k. Note that Les Misérables, at #15, finally crossed the 2M mark. It could get a lot of César noms (TBA this wednesday), and an unexpected success at winning the Academy Award for best international movie could relaunch its career like The Artist in 2011.
