Kinda funny how both Milton Keynes cinemas make it in to the top 15, I didn't realise the place had so many people.
Keep in mind, it wouldn't just be Milton Keynes but the surrounding areas as well.

Beauty will definitely top £10 million second weekend. The thing plays like absolute gangbusters. Nothing will come close to it until Jedi arrives in December.
Decent for Get Out, considering the behemoth it opened next to. That word of mouth from the states and those reviews clearly translated.
I agree, nothing's getting close to BATB's OW numbers for months. I think we'll have a fair number of £10-15m openers though.

I don't expect Fast 8 to match the 7th. There seems to be less hype this time around. Fast 7 also opened over Easter weekend, but with a Friday opening. Nevertheless, it has a £12.8m 3-day, and £15.6m with Monday included, so pretty huge. With 2 extra days and including Easter Monday, I'm sure Fast 8 can match that figure, and maybe make a run for £30m, compared to £38.5m for Fast 7.
As for Guardians 2, the first had a great run, opening with £6.3m and ending just below £30m, so an impressive multiplier for a Marvel film. This time, it should open higher, probably around the £9-10m mark with a total similar to, or just above the first.
I'm think £10-12m OW is likely for Guardians and like Civil War it's opening on a Bank holiday. Interestingly when I saw Beauty and the Beast, the only Disney trailer I had was for Coco and the only big blockbuster trailer was Wonder Woman rather than Guardians or Pirates

Fri: £4.9m
Sat: £7.9m
Sun: £6.9m
Incredible Sunday hold, down only 13%.
Now to extrapolate for this week. The Jungle Book made £3.7m in its first Mon-Thu. Seeing as BatB literally doubled its opening, £7m weekdays seems reasonable.
As for its 2nd weekend, there is virtually no competition (Power Rangers or Smurfs are hardly going to dent it), but, barring some miracle, it isn't going to drop only 17% like TJB. A 35% drop gives it £12.8m, and 40% gives it £11.8m. Either way it'd be the 3rd biggest 2nd weekend ever. So, by Sunday, BatB should be approaching the £40m mark already. Unless it drops way harder than expected this weekend, I don't see how it doesn't reach at least £70m, especially with Easter holidays coming up. It has a free run until Fast and Furious 8 on April 12th.
I imagine it's more adult skewing compared to The Jungle Book which means it'll probably have stronger weekdays.
Fast 8 I think will do £12-13m over five days, I'm not sure it'll increase from Fast 7 and even if does, I think Guardians 2 will prevent from doing more than £30m total.

MinaTakla you should be a political spin professional!! Lol
There is nothing "EXCELLENT" about an animated film struggling to make 350 OS from a studio that has been hitting home runs.
Its decent/mediocre but it's definitely not EXCELLENT, no matter how you want it to be.
Just like Moana struggling for 490 IS is decent and not EXCELLENT.
I swear he works for Universal or Illumination given these press releases.

They shot themselves in the foot on that one and should have left it in September.
STX is being run by a bunch of numbers guys that wear slick suits and have high priced offices. I like what they are trying to do, but they have a lot to improve on.
So like every other studio?
In all seriousness, I think A24 is the studio to look out for, they've been hitting their stride in the last few years and with an Oscar win, they've cemented themselves.

I'm a huge Power Rangers fan, and I'm pessimistic about this film, partly because of Saban Brands' obsession with marketing Mighty Morphin Power Rangers over all other Power Rangers seasons, especially Disney's (Wild Force to RPM), since they got it back in 2010. And speaking of Disney, the Los Angeles Times had a new article about Haim Saban today, and in an ironic twist, says he is concerned about Beauty and the Beast's effect on Power Rangers. The only reason Haim Saban has the Power Rangers back in the first place, is because Bob Iger and the rest of Disney agreed to sell it. If Bob Iger thought there was any way Disney could make Power Rangers work, it never would have left the House of Mouse in 2010.
If Disney couldn't make it work then Lionsgate and Saban have no chance.

They might possibly get that, but I think it will be closer to what they were able to get for The Edge of Seventeen.
I like STX, but man they pick some shitty release dates.
I think Europacorp are distributing it along with STX but I could be wrong but you wonder if they know the film's not good hence the bad release date.

That didn't stop Arrival.
Arrival was more adult oriented and it benefited from positive reviews and buzz from the various film festivals.

Pirates won't completely tank like Alice 2 did but after so many unnecessary/unwanted sequels have been flopping the past two years it's hard to not see anything but franchise-low grosses, and by a comfortable margin too.
Cars 3 is also somewhat of a wild card. If it somehow ends up with an even worse reception than the second...
I think Cars 3 will have better reviews, Pirates will do okay but it'll be the second lowest OW of the franchise but OS will save it.

Dunkirk will do really well here I think. £30m+
I'm looking forward to it but I suspect it'll do better in the UK because of the subject matter and because it's Nolan
-
I get the feeling if Wonder Woman gets similar critical reception to BATB, it'll blow up box office wise although not to the same extent as BATB.

I'm surprised BATB wasn't huge in IMAX although $21m is not to be sniffed at. I saw it in a PLF screen and it really benefits from being on a big screen and big sound. I can't imagine it would be a film which benefitted from D-Box and 4DX unlike Kong or Logan.

Wreck It Ralph 2 will either be another Lego Batman (under $190M) or Toy Story 2 ($250M+) domestic
I don't see WIR decreasing but I imagine it'll either stay flat or a small increase.

Summer's going to be dull in comparison to the last three months although I think we'll see some big OWs from Guardians 2, Alien, maybe Pirates, Wonder Woman, DM3, Spider-Man, Apes and perhaps Dunkirk.
-
Next March isn't going to come close box office wise to this March but I could see some healthy OW from Wreck it Ralph 2, The New Mutants and Ready Player One. RPO in particular if WB markets it right could open huge,

Disney now owns the two top OWs outside of the Summer. Batman v Superman was CRUSHED. They are coming for Jurassic World's top Summer OW next.
Won't happen this year, perhaps 2019 or 2020. I wonder if they'll try and nab the February record from Deadpool with Black Panther.

Could £70m be possible with this opening?
I think £65m is more likely but £70m would be sweet.

Genie is the only character that doesn't have to be Middle Eastern, I think they should do what they originally intended for the film but was cut but restored for the stage musical which was to make the Genie more of a Fats Waller/Cab Calloway style performer, Jamie Foxx would be really good choice if they went that route as he can sing but also he can be really funny.
-
Disney has Frozen the stage musical to deal with, it's going to at least 15-20 years before we see Frozen as a live action film.
I have said it before but Hunchback needs the live action treatment,

I'm in a packed show of Get Out right now. Bet the cinemas in this country are loving that even with the huge blockbusters, the wealth is still being spread.
Can imagine Get Out will do £2-3m OW which is still excellent against the juggernaut that is BATB.
I think the upcoming kids films like The Boss Baby and Smurfs will do decently even against Beauty with Easter coming up but I imagine we won't see another big OW until Fast 8 and even then I'm expecting it'll do similar numbers to Fast 7 over five days

It was expected to be huge. Not 2nd biggest Saturday of all time huge.
And yes, TS3 is biggest non SW Disney with £74m. Will be difficult for BatB to top that.
I think £60-65m total is a reasonable guess similar to Jurassic World, it'll probably have a heftier drop next weekend compare to The Jungle Book but it'll comfortably break £10m next weekend,
I doubt anything will come close until The Last Jedi.
MONDAY #'s: BATB $13.5m (Asgard)

I imagine it was a pretty easy gig for him and everyone else cast as Enchanted objects as it was voice work which could be done within a few weeks if not a few days with only a short period of actual shooting for the final scenes.
