Theres a first time for everything haha, no I'm sure i've mentoned before just not often, CP how old do you think I am hehe yeah I am.Yeah Fri is increase on Thur should be around $a2.7

In Germany Friday looking like around eu1.6mil, #2 is APR but its very close (in admits APR is higher), in Austria APR is #1 (in $ & admits) , #2 TA, UK looks to be going to do around gbp3.4mil, Spains opening is over 40% higher than Thor was year ago.

Well OD looking like being over $eu1.3mil which is over 40% higher than Thor's OD

Fri will be around $gbp3.4

Yeah saw it tonight in a nutshell fantastic friends loved it as well, will go back for another viewing

GBP

From the Avengers OS threadIn Germany the opening day when finals are in will be over 100k in admits, but by admits American Pie opening is a very close 2nd over 90kIn $eu , #1 TA wil be over 1.1mil and #2 APR over 640kIn Austria APR wed is above TA in both admits & $eu but not by much, when finals are in it might switch.

The Thu figure will be over 2.5mil

Yeah cause the thing is even though like a said above most Wed opens had more benefit from school hols, it may just mean in Avengers case a lot more will be taken sat/sun, the last HP probably would have had a mega sat/sun(not that it wasn't already ) due to people who went especially thu/fri daytime going weekend. You may even see much bigger than 3-4mil on sat/sun, or evernyone could have just gone yesterday lol and like some people that went twice.

HK Thu will be about $hk 6.1mil (approx $us800) over 60k admits, #2 battleship -79% and #3 Dark Flight -74%

closer to 2mil , it'll be off around 67%(NZ over 70%), compared to DH2 -43% (it did have school hols) which still makes the drop on TA impressive.Thing to remember with 5 day results, most films that started on Wed had backing of school hols Wed-Fri either pretty much all states or most of them, Avengers whilst it had a public holiday Wed, it won't benefit from higher day trade Thu-Fri that others had.

In Germany the opening day when finals are in will be over 100k in admits, but by admits American Pie opening is a very close 2nd over 90kIn $eu , #1 TA wil be over 1.1mil and #2 APR over 640kIn Austria APR wed is above TA in both admits & $eu but not by much, when finals are in it might switch.

LOL yeah it didIn NZ TA has take #1 spot OD from DH2$nz1,019,844 (DH2 950k)

It's now been dated for Australia Oct 4 with previews two weekends before

NZ is now looking like if it doesn't take #1 it'll be close

closer to 30k now

Midnights aren't new they just don't do them often and its only popular with certain films but been doing it since the late 90's, one old example is SWEP1.Yes Wed was national Holiday, HB2 opeing was school hols and ROTK (back in 03) was national hol,THe previous high opening for a super hero movie was TDK and Avengers has done over 2.5 times its OD figure (which was during school hols some states)

Final numbers aren't out yet, but it'll be 2nd biggest OD ever behind HPDH:PT2 and ahead of ROTK

Yes it did. but lets just say that so far with evening to go (and it may tell a different tale) its been bigger than anything

If your thinking OD, think much much bigger

International reporting is confusing, when you see weekend boxoffice for a film its not Fri-sun, its a mix of 2-5 days (wed-Sun) depending on how a country normally reports, normal weekend-week reporting is definded by standard release day of the week (ie France Wed, Australia/ Russia Thu, UK/Mexico Fri, Japan Sat etc) through Sunday. The majority of countries is either 3-4 days.Also if there are previews or a film offically opens on a day earlier than normal release day on the international reports it will be included as part of the 1st weekend (even if the local country reported the previews or earlier opening day seperately,exceptions to this is for example UK that even locally includes previews in opening weekend)eg preview Fri-sun weekend before and you open say Thursday, locally territory reports those previews ,Film opens Thursday the weekend figures is say 5mil cume 7mil, on the international reports regardless of how the local territory reported it will show weekend figure being 7mil(not 5mil) the 2mil from the prior weekend will not be included in the International total for the prior weekend.If say Film opened Wed(normal opening day Thu) took 2mil, weekend 5mil cume is 7mil(and locally the territory reported it that way) the next International weekend rpeort would say the weekend figure was 7mil.There are at rare times some exceptions.With Screen counts, the screen count is made up of mix of Number of Theatres, prints or screens depending.The Weekend ranking well, its a bit screwed when one films might open and is playing say 70 territories and on 10000 screens and another is in 30 countries on 5000 screens big flucuations in total grosses and rankings (the other might come around when another 30 countries open), sure the film in 70 countries on 10000 screens and week 1 will probably be #1.

also first time a studio has had top 3, plenty of times 1-2 or even a combo of other positions like 3-5, but never #1-3

960k (over 1mil is $us) but still
