August is like the worst release date imaginable for a family movie. Nobody has any money left for movies after Winter's Holidays

[Purple Minion]

Is it that bad, August? Looking at its numbers, don't think anyone wants to spend pesos to watch it now!

[keysersoze123]

Really impressive. So it just is not beating Minions but crushing it !!!!

Back in 2015. Hotel Transylvania 2 was released in August to avoid Minions and it finished with a very good result of 1.4M.

 

Yet this August is a hard month beacause TLK effect, Hobs and Shaw and some local movies

I remember there is this film outfit in Argentina that is part-owned by Disney. Is it still active there?

11th-14th July, Weekend Estimates:

 

1. Toy Story 4 / 441.009 adm. (-22%) / Total = 5.266.626 adm. Nº1 all time

2. Spider-Man: Far From Home / 197.356 adm. (-42%) / Total = 790.505 adm.

3. The Secret Life of Pets 2 / 161.105 adm. (-1%) / Total = 505.587 adm.

4. Anabelle 3 / 80.927 adm. (-42%) / Total = 698.564 adm.

5. No Soy tu Mami / 21.193 adm. (-33%) / Total = 162.294 adm.

 

Toy Story 4 finally on friday became the most attended movie ever, and on saturday became the first movie ever to reach 5M admissions. Now we have to look if it's able to reach 6M admissions, I think that it may happend unless TLK blows up everything on it's way.

SMFFH, I don't know why but I'm felling very disappointing with it's run I expected it already be over 1M admssions. Even with winter holidays from now on beating the first entry looks distant.

Pets2 is doing a very bad run in 11 days of realease yet is realy far from the first movie OW, yet it's hold was quite good.

And finally in a silent 4th place Anabelle is doing a very solid run fighting against strong wide realeases and TS4 massive succes. It's pacing behind all TC franchise movies but I find it's run solid, very solid.

That wasn't an August release, was late September.

TS4's crazy runs in LATAM and Japan is the main reason why it could still cross the billion even though its performance in Europe is way worse than TS3.

TS4 OD was 425k but that was a Holiday.

TS4 friday was 288k.

 

And TS4 second Thursday was 134k.

But the winter holiday has started, so TLK will make less than TS4 second weekend, maybe 900k imao, still good start.

It opened 57% below TS4. But is hard to compare both of them, TS4 opened in a holiday while TLK opened in 35% of the country in winter holidays. 

A good comparisson could be The Secret Life of Pets in 2016, it opened while Buenos Aires (50% of the market) was in winter holidays with a stunning 149k OD befor a 649k OW.

 

The estimates put TLK as the 7th biggest OD, right above Infinty War 167k adm. OD.

Actuals could put it in the 5th place behind TS4, Endgame, F7 and FF8.

Thursday 18th July Estimates:

 

1. The Lion King / 184.748 adm. OD

2. Toy Story 4 / 47.196 adm. (-39%) / Total = 5.589.788 adm. 

3. The Secret Life of Pets 2 / 19.105 adm. (-24%) / Total = 632.289 adm.

4. Spider-Man: Far From Home / 15.477 adm. (-49%) / Total = 911.435 adm.

5. Anabelle 3 / 4.390 adm. (-63%) / Total = 741.124 adm. 

 

Another bang in the year, now TLK had an excelent OD in fact the 7th biggest (with actuals it should be 5th) prior the winter holidays open in the biggest share of the market and also with Friends Day in 20th june, 1M adm. OW looks distant yet I wont rule ìt out. I will be soft on my bet but a 800k adm. OW is in the sight.

TS4 and SLOP2 hold very well despite the screen lose. The first one locked is path to 6M and will cross it with ease, yet there's no roof. And for the second one with WH incoming at least is in good pace to reach 1M admissions total.

 

Movie	Adm.	Year
Toy Story 4	423.718	2019
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
The Lion King (2019)	184.748	2019
Avengers: Infinity War	167.160	2018
It (2017)	153.168	2017
Secret Life of Pets (**)	149.158	2016

[ymblcza]

As of Saturday, TLK about 720k weekend.

1	El Rey León	DISNEY	529.806	572	0	-	529.806
2	Toy Story 4	DISNEY	155.548	305	307.039	-49,34	5.698.140
3	La vida secreta de tus mascotas 2	UIP	64.929	234	108.956	-40,41	678.113
4	Spider-Man: Lejos de casa	UIP	57.709	241	138.895	-58,45	953.667
5	Annabelle 3: Viene a casa	WARNER BROS	21.793	125	59.680	-63,48	758.527

[Hei25]

18th - 21st Weekend Estimates:

 

1. The Lion King / 789.636 adm. OW

2. Toy Story 4 / 228.288 adm. (-49%) / Total = 5.778.580 adm.

3. The Secret Life of Pets 2 / 98.386 adm. (-39%) / Total = 713.385 adm.

4. Spider-Man: Far From Home / 83.417 adm. (-58%) / Total = 981.061 adm.

5. Anabelle 3 / 29.569 adm. (-64%) / Total = 767.361 adm.

 

Great start for TLK, with A:E and TS4 I think we got carried away and waited for a blast but it didn't happened. Yet this is an amazing start in fact it is the 6th biggest OW ever behind Infinity War. And as I said before the best comparisson for this movie is SLOP in 2016 which opened in the same range of dates and started with a powerfull 649k adm. and finished with a sperb 2.4M adm. run.
