Hugo hit $10m! Fantastic for it over here considering it didn't even get to $100m in the US. The descendants also hit 15m :)I think John Carter might actually hold up decently against THG this weekend.I'm going for a $7.5-$9.5m opening for THG, but with a small midnight. Pre-ticket sales have been selling faster for both thursday and friday nights compared with the midnight sessions from what I can see.

Basically where I am: $8-10m OW.

[lab276]

There are more sellouts and LT5's in Innaloo alone than in NSW

[Ball Lightning]

Its all gold class though so they don't really count that much as they are much smaller cinemas..My cinema which had around 1 full theatre for BD1 (split over 2 theatres) and had 5 sold out theatres for DH2, has only filled slightly less then half of a theatre.. Weekend sales however still are staying very very strong.We have 3 theatres playing it with a session time every hour I see from 6pm-9pm easily selling out on thursday through to saturday.

[lab276]

Still, it's a good 30-40 tickets per sellout, and the tickets are more expensive.

[Robertron]

Exactly. They're $35-40 a ticket, and most (if not all) GCs are 40-seat cinemas.Ill do an update later today with (hopefully) more sellouts to add.

[Robertron]

The next update will be a midnight only update

[Robertron]

Ok scratch that. I dont have enough time to go through all the sessions on Event Website. Im just going to do an update like the previous ones.

wow ... some impressive sellouts for The Hunger Games. Certainly not at Harry Potter 8 or New Moon levels but damn 10m+ seems likely at this point. Will be impressive in march.

Yes should be very interesting to get the OW numbers!I'm sticking with $8m OW just to be safe.

[Robertron]

RTH get yo ass here right now and give us some midnight numbers!Kthanksbye

[Totem]

9.2m 4 day and 24.5m Total

[Ball Lightning]

At my cinema today:

Thursday sales for THG was 85% of BD1's Thursday sales excluding midnight.

Including midnight sales, THG was 73% of BD1's total thursday sales.

THG has already sold 36% of BD1's total tickets for Friday, which if the rough 60% walk-up percentage from today continues, equates to it having 86% of BD1's ticket sales for tomorrow.

So with that I'm thinking it'll get just under a 10m weekend.

And my maths probably sucks so yeah

[Robertron]

RTH where are you!!!!?????!!!!!???We NEEEED numbers!!

[CJohn]

The numbers in Australia are going to be big.

[DeeCee]

I expect around $9-11m for the 4 day. We shall see.

[Noctis]

$3.9m OD from RTH!!!!HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!

[CJohn]
