Argentina Box Office - Minions: first movie ever to do $35m+!!!

Recommended Posts

Weekend (April 11th - 14th) Estimates:

 

1. Dumbo / 162.784 adm. (-39%) / Total = 607.458 adm.

2. Shazam! / 109.421 adm. OW.

3. Pet Cemetary / 105.950 adm.

4. 4x4 / 83.700 adm.

5. Captain Marvel / 38.764 adm. (-50%) / Total = 1.278.814 adm.

 

In a good weekend overall, three movies debuted in the top 5 with Shazam! being the top of the realeses despite the meh OW (In fact the lowest OW for a DCEU and if it's ñcuky it will barely cross 300k adm.). 

Despite the good run of the release, the high note is for Dumbo which after a strong OW and strong weekdays due to the holiday, held very well and keep it's pace to finish above 1M adm.

 

About Avengers: Endgame Presales there aren't any certain data about how it's doing, as ever, no tracking avalilable :/. The only real fact is that both IMAX screens in the country had already sold out the first week of the movie and is selling tickets for the second week in advance. 

The movie is easily the most awaited movie ever, sadly Argentina is facing a crisis that may affect it's OW more if we have in mind that Disney won't have any usual promo in the first 4 days of the release. Yet imo it will have the biggest OW ever, or I hope so.

The is another IMAX in Posadas, capitol city of Misiones province. There's a complex under construction with some rumors about an IMAX screen in Neuquén City.

Avengers Endgame has already sold over 300.000 admissions in advance as Disney has informed. The movie is on track to have the biggest OW ever.

 

Also some cinemas will have offer shows 24 hours.

A new cinema complex has opened in Argentina last week, is a Village Cinema (owned by Cinepolis) located in the city of Lujan 40km away from Buenos Aires City. 

The complex will add 1162 seats divided in 6 screens (4 2D, 2 3D). This is the first complex opened in the last 2 years, and there are 2 more to come later this year.

Weekend (18-22 April) Estimates:

 

1. The Curse of la Llorona / 171.959 adm. OW.

2. Dumbo / 107.458 adm. (+9%) / Total = 899.486 adm.

3. Shazam! / 54.899 adm. (-3%) / Total = 266.335 adm.

4. Wonder Park / 51.485 adm. (+3%) / Total = 115.798 adm.

5. 4x4 / 50.956 adm. (-11%) / Total = 240.020 adm.

6. Pet Cemetery / 30.442 adm. (-48%) / Total = 244.571 adm.

 

Another poor Easter holiday weekend, better than last years but poor anyways. Despite that The Curse of la Llorona had a very decent OW, and Dumbo held extremly good. Yet for the movies now in theaters the big numbers end on wednesday when Avengers: Endgame madness will start.

 

Right now Avengers: Endgame, has almost locked have the Best non-holiday OW besting A:IW performance, also has a shot to best F7 for the best OW ever.

 

I hope more tracking appears during the week, also the screen count.

Avengers Endgame will have the widest reported release ever with 630 screens.

Yo have an idea how big this is,the previous record holder DM3 didn't even reach 500 screens.

 

Despite another stepback in the economy, the mood didn't change. So I still expect recordbreaking numbers.

As mentioned before Avenger: Engame was huge, well huge can't describe it's performence. It became the biggest OD ever, and the first movie ever to open above the 300k adm. milestone.

 

Argentina TOP Opening Days ever.

 

Movie Adm. Year
Avengers: Endgame 310.118 2019
Furious 7 (*) 268.840 2015
Fate 8 (*) 246.005 2017
Monsters University (**) 189.756 2013
Simpsons The Movie (**) 184.956 2007
Avengers: Infinity War 167.160 2018

 

Avengers: Endgame became Nº1 beating FF7 and FF8 that were released over Easter Holidays. So that make the result even more impressive.

 

Also for the first time in a long time we can se how much it gathered in $:

81M ARS, which means in today's ER 1.72M USD.

Weekend Estimates (25th-28th April):

 

1. Avengers: Endgame / 1.188.950 adm. OW

2. The Curso of la Llorona / 66.045 adm. (-62%) / Total = 279.629 adm.

3. Dumbo / 37.380 adm. (-65%) / Total = 955.711 adm.

4. 4x4 / 21.752 adm. (-58%) / Total = 271.183 adm.

5. Wonder Park / 12.897 adm. (-75%) / Total = 136.060 adm. 

6. Shazam! / 10.955 adm. (-80%) / Total = 284.735 adm.

 

No words left for the Avengers: Endgame OW. The Biggest ever for a solid 15%. There's nothing in the horizon that will challenge it.

 

All time top 5 Opening Weekends:

 

MOVIE

ADMISSION

YEAR

Avengers: Endgame

1.188.950

2019

Furious 7 (*)

1.024.714

2015

Fate of the Furious (*)

969.168

2017

Avengers: Infinty War

864.202

2018

The Simpsons Movie

769.543

2007

 

The goal in terms of admissions is finish above Furious 7 3.355.209 adm. something that will mean reach the top 7 places, and the 3rd biggest non-animated feature.

Hi everyone.

 

I'm trying to gather as much all-time admissions data as I can from the main regions around the world.

Argentina is one of those countries in which I have yet to be able to find a definitive list of the all-time top movies by admissions.

IMDB archives has data for some old movies but again there are blanks:

https://web.archive.org/web/20170307230543/http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0059742/business

https://web.archive.org/web/20040623201939/http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068646/business
 

Data I have managed to assemble so far for Argentina for pre 1995 movies:

 

3.97m - Home Alone
3.72m - The Godfather
3.65m - The Sound of Music

1.87m - Snow White

1.86m - The Lion King

1.79m - The Jungle Book

1.02m - The Exorcist

Does anybody have access to a comprehensive list that they could share?

Avengers: Engame acomplished the best opening week ever, besting the previous record holder by a massive 34%. 

Also thanks to Avengers this was the best week outside of Winter Holidays ever.

Thursday May 2nd Estimates:

 

1. Avengers: Endgame 91.905 adm. (-71) / Total = 1.901.204 adm. 

2. No one cares

 

A:E had a steep fall something that was expected comming from the hugest Opening Day ever and consuming a lot of demand. Yet compared to Avengers: Infinity War it fell just 5% (56.907 adm. -66%). If it can manage to a weekend hold below 50% will be magnificent. At this point 3M admissions are locked.
