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

[Hei25]

Weekly Estimates (March 29th - April 4th):

 

#	MOVIE	Week	ADMISSIONS	SCREENS	CHANGE LW	TOTAL
1	Ready Player One	New	182.368	303	-	182.368
2	Pacific Rim: Uprising	2nd	83.900	198	-36%	214.106
3	A Wrinkle in Time	New	73.232	185	-	73.232
4	Peter Rabit	2nd	65.341	209	-12%	139.392
5	Coco	12th	51.036	114	0%	3.051.051
6	Sherlock Gnomes	New	49.253	231	-	49.253
7	La Reina del Miedo	2nd	39.116	78	-7%	80.992
8	Black Panther	7th	28.549	66	-25%	909.129
9	Maria Magdalena	New	23.491	108	-	23.491
10	Winchester	5th	20.294	44	-11%	184.529

 

IF you see the number you can't imagine that the week had 3 holidays, really disappointing week. 

• Despite the weakness of the week, the numbers of RPO aren't bad at all, but also aren't a big deal. Weather is looking bad for the weekend so it may hold well, so if that happends a 400k adm. total run seems likely, pretty decent.
• PRU thanks to the off-work days it had decent hold. Let's see how it hold this weekend to see where's heading.
• I will mention 3 movies that are exceding my expectations, Peter Rabbit, La Reina del Miedo and Winchester, all exceeded every expectation. Now Peter Rabbit is heading somewhere close to 200k admissions very solid.-

Thursday 5th April Wide Releases:

- A Quiet Place (190 Screens)

- Mazinger Z: Infinity /170 Screens)

- Los Buscadores (Paraguay)

 

Weekend weather is looking good for cinemas, so  I expect a decent hold for all the holdovers even comming from a holiday weekend. The top spot is looking to be retained by RPO, but A Quiet Place will look to enjoy the love from argentinians for horror movies to make some fight for the top spot. Also I expect a 30k adm. OW for Mazinger Z, a respectable number for an Japanese Animated movie, this one is having a surprising wide release something that only Dragon Ball franchise was able to do in the last 10 years.-

 

P.S.: Today Avengers: Infinity Wars presale starts.

Just one, hahaha. But this is the fastest time that it soldout. Aldo this is a very strong fact, also are many 2D, 3D, 4D, XD, Monster Screens and DBOX shows already soldout. 

It is pacing to be the strongest OW of the year.

Thursday 5th April Estimates:

1. A Quiet Place 7.946 adm. OD
2. Ready Player One 5.621 adm. (-80%) Total = 188.272 adm.
3. Mazinger Z: Infinity 2.540 OD
4. Pacific Rim: Uprising 2.008 adm. (-83%) Total = 216.224 adm.

Very ugly thursday (drops are huge considering last thursday was holiday), but yet there are a 10-13% of screens that didn't upload the data.

The only good news is that the weather forecast downs't look wrong, today is raining consistently since the start of the day, and the worecast says that the rain will last 'tilll sunday.

 

Also today I'll be assisting to Mazinger Z show, so I expect my tickets make a huge impact in the total of the weekend .

Weekend Estimates (April 5th - April 8th):

 

#	MOVIE	Week	ADMISSIONS	SCREENS	CHANGE LW	TOTAL
1	A Quiet Place	New	94.439	217	-	94.439
2	Ready Player One	2nd	72.598	232	-45%	255.282
3	A Wrinkle in Time	2nd	32.730	155	-37%	106.021
4	Peter Rabit	3rd	31.534	136	-33%	171.114
5	Pacific Rim: Uprising	3rd	29.555	129	-51%	243.955
6	Coco	13th	24.695	104	-29%	3.075.811
7	Sherlock Gnomes	2nd	19.414	146	-43%	68.829
8	Mazinger Z: Infinity	New	19.087	188	-	19.087

10	Black Panther	8th	11.405	52	-45%	920.567

 

• After a so/so start for A Quiet Place, thanks to the rainy weekend it finish very strong. Let's see if reviews can help it to manage legs similar to Split last year.
• Ready Player One had a safe hold coming from a holiday weekend, so it seems WoM is solid, let's hope it can manage a x3 multiplier.
• Coco and Black Panther keep resisting every release to stay in the top 10. 
• Mazinger Z, despite the screen count failed to succes, but considering it's an Anime movie and not a Dragon Ball serie one it's a good result.

• Nice first week for A Quiet Place, let's see if legs can help it to reach the 300k admissions mark.
• Solid hold for RPO coming from a 5 holiday week, all movies had decent hold.
• La Reina del Miedo became the first local movie to cross the 100k admissions mark in this poor year for locals.

 

Thursday 12th Wide Releases:

• -Rampage (No screen count yet, but easyly arround 300 including IMAX)
• Truth or Dare 
• Ploey: You Never Fly Alone

Rampage will lead the weekend and pour some spice in this quiet season, Dwayne Johnson is a loved star here so it has a solid chance to reach 200k adm. OW (DJ promoted Rampage for the Local Soccer Derby)

Let's see if Truth or Dare will enjoy the love of Argentinians for Horror movies or A Quiet Place will hold all the attention.

Awesome, thanks for the continuous updates Hei  

 

Also is Coco finally winding down? Argentina seemed reluctant to ever stop watching it! I'm happy it performed really well.

 

Ending at likely 3.15m or so, where would that put it in the all time list?

[Hei25]

@feasby007 Thanks to the people who visits this thread I upload it.

Coco will hold in the weekly top 10 maybe for the next two weeks, that will mean 15 weeks consecutive on the list.

I imagine it finishing shy of 3.15M admissions. That will put Coco on the 9th place in the all time ranking (admissions), now it's in the 10th spot.

I always read via email, but often don't come to the thread itself (sorry about that)

 

It really is heartwarming just how much Latin America loved this film  

[Hei25]

Thursday 12th April:

1. Rampage 14.815 adm. OD
2. A Quiet Place 4.883 adm. (-40%) Total = 125.105 adm.
3. Truth or Dare 4.172 adm. OD
4. Ready Player One 2.578 (-54%) Total = 279.177 adm.

Another poor weekend incoming, and weather isn't good for the Box Office. Rampage should win easy the weekend but 100k adm. OW isn't locked. There's some screens yet to upload the data, but number won't change enought to make a sustantial diference. So will have to wait till Avengers release to have some fun.

[Hei25]

Weekend Estimates (12th-15th April):

 

1. Rampage 137.234 adm. OD.

2. A Quiet Place 50.079 adm. (-48%) Total = 170.543 adm.

3. Truth or Dare 44.704 adm. OD.

4. Ready Player One 30.024 adm. (-59%) Total = 306.754 adm.

 

After a soft OD, Rampage had good OW right over RPO OW. It's total will depend on how good it does before IW arrives in 11 days, but 300k adm. seems to be locked.

[Hei25]

SeThursday 19th April Estimates:

 

1. Perdida 8.701 adm. OD.

2. Rampage 7.051 adm. (-53%) Total = 181.313 adm.

3. Truth or Dare 2.587 adm. (-41%) Total = 59.188 adm.

4. A Quiet Place 2.288 adm. (-54%) Total = 185.851 adm.

5. Ready Player One 1.713 (-35%) Total = 317.026 adm.

 

Perdida set the best OD for a local movie this year and will drop the best OW easily. The first spot will be a tight race btw Pérdida and Rampage.

But once again the weekend will be weak unless Pérdida overperform.

do we have any idea how big Avengers: Infinity War would make on opening?

A 600k adm. (3.5-4M USD) OW it's almost locked. Sunday will be huge, so sell over 650k may happend (on par with AoU and CW).

Monday also will be huge. So a 5 day 800k adm. seems likely.

Weekend Estimates (19th-22nd April):

9	A Wrinkle in Time	4th	10.071	58	-26%	139.285
10	Jang san beom	New	9.320	78	-	9.320

 

• Another poor weekend despite the good holds thanks the rain. Rampage hold was really good, it was close to reach 100k adm for 2nd weekend in a row (the last opener to make it 100k in first two weekends was Black Panther in mid february). IW will hit it hard but 300k adm. may happend befor Avengers's earthquake starts.
• Perdida opened very well, easyly the top OW for a local movie, and during saturday despite IW, will become the most attended local movie to the date.
• Then all movies hold well. And finally after 14 weeks in the top 10, Coco fell from it and now is in 11th place.

For those who expect a huge OW for Avengers Infinity War, get ready because it will be huge, weather also is going to help it (rainy forecast for the entire weekend).

• Huge result for Black Panther, maybe it had better run in other markets, but this result in Argentina mean an amazing success. 
• I see IW landing just over AoU, with a slight chance to reach 2M admissions.
• Deadpool 2 is set to be a big ticket, becoming one of the few SHM to top 1M admissions.

[salvador-232]

Did Coco achieved any significant milestone in Uruguay?. I checked Mojo yearly Box Office and the only other Pixar or Disney animated movie that comes close to Coco in USD is Monster University in 2013 which had way better exchange rates. 

 

That would be yet another record to the list.
