So is 50 Shades locked to win the year or could something else beat it?

A new movie from the team behind the highest grossing local title ever "Sole a Catinelle" is scheduled for December. (because of this Star Wars VII will be postponed to January 2016! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2488496/releaseinfo?ref_=tt_ql_6). Every number under 40M€ is impossible to imagine. Other movies could be Avengers 2 and 007 (the previous movies did very well and both have scenes set in Italy) and Cinderella+FF (Cindy is one of the most iconic Disney brands, and Frozen after a year is still the best selling DVD title here http://www.univideo.org/cms/index.php?dir_pk=17).

Cinderella opened yesterday and it did €0.35m. The exchange rate is horrendous nowadays. It is only $0.37m

Last May Maleficent did: €0.58m ($0.8m) OD and €4.3m ($5.9m) OW

Last May Maleficent did: €0.58m ($0.8m) OD and €4.3m ($5.9m) OW

Cinderella did €0.56m on Friday, 60% up from the OD!!! Cumulative in 2 days €0.91m ($0.96m)

My prediction €3m OW, €10m final ($10.6m). What do you think edroger?

At the show that I saw (thursday afternoon) there were mostly families with childrens: with this kind of audience (maybe different from that of Maleficent) we should wait Sunday numbers to make a serious prediction about final gross. In any case there are many reasons to consider your prediction a bit low: lacking of competition, very good reviews, easter holiday coming in two week and Frozen factor. We will see.

 

Btw Cinetel updates friday numbers at 600K euros.

[edroger3]

1,583M euro for Cinderella on Saturday, +160% vs Friday. Tot 2,55M.

[Hernan Gonzalez]

Cinderella did so much better than estimates. Even better than Maleficent in euros!!! €5m OW!!!

[edroger3]

As I thought, Cinderella had a super Sunday (€ 2.388.183 day - € 5.125.252 with 779.634 adm weekend), outpacing Maleficent 4,9M€ opening (5-day and 3D). Cindy has strong WoM and is best choice for family audience. The last but not the least it has Frozen short attached to: the "Frozen Fever" is exploded in Italy a bit later than in other countries, but now has reached its maximum force (Frozen, after a year, is still the best selling title in Home Video here).

[Hernan Gonzalez]

What a Beautiful Surprise!!! Cinderella did so much better than I was expecting!!! She entered magically into the Top 10 for the year way before Sunday midnight!!! 

 

Top 5 Weekend:

 

1- Cinderella, €5.13m, new.

2- Ma che bella sorpresa, €2.02m, new (Cume: €2.14m)

3- Focus, €1.28m. Cume: €3.63m

4- Nessuno Si Salva Da Solo, €0.88m. Cume: €2.63m

5- SpongeBob 2, €0.61m. Cume: €4.60m

Mighty gross. Are $20m reachable?

Mighty gross. Are $20m reachable?

With this year's exchange rate I don't think so.

[edroger3]

Cinderella stay strong in second Saturday, 1,132m€ (-29%), more than doubled Insurgent.

It also easily should double the 2nd weekend of Maleficent, with a total near 10 m€ in 11 days. Maleficent was at 8,8m€ at the same point, with 3D boost and a holiday Monday.

[Hernan Gonzalez]

After 2 weekends:

Cinderella, €10.3m ($11.1m)

Maleficent, €8.8m ($12m)

[edroger3]

Very good numbers for Cinderella in 2nd weekend: € 3.729.535 (-28%) for a total of € 10.291.256 - 1.620.175 admissions. It's one of the best 2nd weekend since movies open on thursday (Oct 2012): see the chart below (for Hollywood movies)

 

Frozen                 € 6.113.641
Hobbit 3               € 4.051.852
Fifty Shades of Grey   € 3.827.266
Cinderella             € 3.729.535
Desplicable me 2       € 3.691.503
American Sniper        € 3.590.609
Ice Age 4              € 3.486.214

 

Insurgent had a decent start at #3 with € 1.359.173 and 190.572 admissions which is  better than Divergent (€ 1.042.954)
