    None of them would be a factor I guess.

    Peanuts, Pokemon, Little Prince, Hotel Transylvania will fight for children's market.

    Not enough to shake whole industry. Their pre-sale percentage is not huge eighter. 

    (TFA currently has 36.7% of pre-sale percentage, while Hotel Transylvania is 8.6% for 3rd position)

     

    TFA and Himalays likely to lead two-top position for next christmas week.

    And in New Year's eve "The Magician" will join the race, but it is not a guaranteed hit.

    TFA's sunday gross is 2.627m (KRW 3,109,806,900)

    That makes 4-day total gross including wednesday preview to 7.912m (KRW 9,368,527,553)

    It exceeds expectation, especially 3D and IMAX boost gross toward weekend so much.

    3M +@ admission and total gross of around 25m is not out of the park.

    WOM is not great, not toxic either. And lack of new competition is beneficial to TFA toward Christmas.

    TFA's saturday gross is 2.755m USD (3,261,643,891 KRW, 1184 KRW = 1USD)

    3-day gross is about 5.25m

    Getting closer to USD 7m+ @ for 4-day debut.

     

    For Christmas week, there are no new competition. And 'The Tiger' gets weaker and weaker everyday.

    So 'The Himalayas' and TFA will have stellar cruise toward new year's day week.

    I thought this huge K-Pop band promoted TFA in South Korea/Asia :/ it seems like Asia isn't so hyped for a Star Wars movie. At least this gives SW8 a lot of room to grow.

     

    China and Japan will undoubtedly huge, and SK has grown much bigger than prequel era.

    Disney has put so much effort on TFA and the gross would have been bigger had it released in summertime.

    Further detail, first day of TFA gross is about 1.225m USD.

    (1,451,705,000 KRW, 1USD = 1184 KRW as of today)

    Thanksfully, value of USD is on rise now, thanks to recent fiscal decisions.

    Also as of gross, TFA is no.1 film on Thursday.

     

    From my speculation, TFA is about doing 1m admission for 4-day first week, about 7.3-7.4m USD gross.

    any big local tittles open next weeks?

    Yes, big local movie called The Thieves coming next week. It features domestic all star cast and is from big distributor.This movie was anticipated to block TDKR go further from the first time. From reviews, seems like decent, crowd pleaser movie.This title is also anticipated to bring about 6 or 7 million admission or more.

    Long time, back from vacation.

    TDKR opened with huge number, around 440k admission and 2.76m USD.

    So we can say, it is heading for around 1.8-1.9m admission and 11m USD. (4-day gross)

    I see it can finish around $45m gross.

    For other movies, TASM is having its late runs, currently total is around 4.59m admission and 34.4m USD.

    Should finish just below 40m USD, where many users including me predicted.

    Not many things to say, but Midnight In Paris is becoming sleeper hit.

    It should be interesting where it will finish.

    Long Time, I come back with last week's boxoffice stuff.Deranged, local horror movie opened with surprisingly high number and arrived at No.1 spot.It did came out of nowhere, so it might hurt TASM more than expected.Weekend Score : 1.33m admission / 8.41m USD grossTASM had its fine second week - for 3-day weekend it had 1.06m admission / 7.87m USD grossThe total is now at 25.75m USD / 3.36m admissionObviously the leg is not at the level of Transformer 1, but it is better than decent.So 5 million admission and 38m USD finish is looking good.For other foreign moviesMadagascar 3 held well, weekend gross is 513k and total is now at 10.5m USD.(1.55m admission)The Raven was meh... debut in 5th position. 4-day gross is 574kMeanwhile, Midnight In Paris is biggest Woody Allen opener in SK. Opened with 530k USD and 80k admission.Haywire - not much to say. 214k grossCabin in the Woods dropped almost 80 percent. Total is now at 1.40m USD and will leave theater this week.We have many many small films opening this week, none of them seems to impact the charts.Maybe one or two domestic movies, well.From foreign movies, Limitless (finally!) is the biggest of them all.

    For Thursday (opener) and Friday Record, some comparisons- Amazing Spiderman 0.561m admission- The Avengers 0.486m admission- Iron Man 2 0.539m admissionFor late June (end of semester weekend) 2-day record, some comparisons- ASM 0.561M- TF3 0.986M (wednesday opener) - TF2 0.855M (wed opener)- Knight & Day 0.232M- Wanted 0.415M- TF1 0.612M- Superman Returns 0.211M (wed opener)TF1 opened with a weekend record of 1.90m admission with 0.31m OD admission Avengers opened with 1.64m admission with 0.29m OD record (incl 0.08m midnight record)So expect kinda 1.60m admission for ASM's opening weekend. (4 day)USD gross will be similar to that of Avengers. (12.75m OW)Legs are hard to predict, while the level isn't higher as TA or TF1but competition is very week. Not much release for 3 weeks until TDKR to come(and vacation isn't started yet)For now, I expect about 5M admission (about 38M USD) finish.
