It's not even playing at George St. I've seen the same Indian movie in 3 or 4 languages at George St in the past.

Only in 9 NSW theaters. The WOM isn't good so probably not doing that hot. The first in franchise did A$940K. 2nd without NSW and VIC reached A$883K. If WOM was good, could have done A$1.5M but now may be A$500k tops.

A$607K weekdays for Shang Chi. I guess without Sydney would have been $150K Approx, so A$450K extra in Sydney reopening. I guess can add another A$600k in weekend in Sydney for a week of A$1.1M Approx. A$3M final probably.

 

Without Sydney, AUS was looking to end at A$10.75M, now probably A$14M. If VIC open in time, probably another A$2-2.5M.

That seems quite low considering all the sellouts seen. So NSW and Victoria combined cannot even do $10m !!! Pre COVID SC could have done 30M+  down under as it has a big Asian crowd as well.

Let's see how weekend bumps are, may be they do A$7M ish. Delayed release gotta account to some loss. 10%, 20% or may be 30%.

[DeeCee]

There’s sellouts but that’s because there’s not many sessions. Theatres may have reopened but it’s still not full capacity. 

[charlie Jatinder]

The weekend bump was impressive indeed. Shang Chi A$1.44M weekend vs A$546K last week. Without NSW probably would have done A$400K, NSW boosted by A$1M+. Total now up at A$11.46M, should reach A$15.5M.

 

Honsla Rakh #3 debut with $220K. Still missing 30% market, good debut for Punjabi film but not great.

AUD1.44m. 

 

[charlie Jatinder]

A$390K weekdays for SC. -36%. 

 

[DeeCee]

I’m guessing Halloween will take #1 this weekend so we won’t see a Shang Chi - Eternals handover. 

 

[charlie Jatinder]

Victoria open. Guess A$1.5M weekend for Shang Chi. Will be interesting how drops are after Eternals release but will cross A$15M at end of week and probably A$17.5-18M full run.

Based on counting the total box office in this, I estimate that there have been around 20m tickets sold YTD. All things considered it isn't awful, but it's still highly likely to be the least attended year since virtually the advent of cinema. I have no idea how any other countries are tracking, but we might be in a relatively better position than everywhere except Japan quite possibly, at least among established markets anyway.

 

 

One year on...

 

I'd estimate we're at 29.9m admissions, so we're already past last year's total with two months and the biggest movie of the year to go.

 

[lab276]

Pretty good for The Last Duel! I know it's a bit of an illusion because Melbourne has now opened up again, but it's up to 1.78m, and hopefully might leg it's way to 3m.

How will Eternals open? The reviews have been disappointing, but since when has that stopped anyone from seeing a film? Surely anything >5m can be considered a success.

I guess should open A$7M+ if 1:10 ratio of US holds.

[DeeCee]

Shang-Chi has 9 weekends at #1, The Eternals get 1 and then it’s over to Bond. 10 weekends at #1 for the MCU.
