I don't know where you got that total from but it's wrong. New cume is € 11.062.431. The Lion King is already the #5 movie of the year (a few hundred K's behind Dumbo and FFH) and its opening has yet to end.

 

1 IL RE LEONE (THE LION KING) 21/08/2019 USA WALT DISNEY S.M.P. ITALIA € 2.744.269 381.517
2 FAST & FURIOUS - HOBBS & SHAW (FAST & FURIOUS PRESENTS: HOBBS & SHAW) 08/08/2019 USA UNIVERSAL S.R.L. € 173.073 23.132
3 IL SIGNOR DIAVOLO 22/08/2019 ITA 01 DISTRIBUTION € 123.013 17.276
4 CRAWL - INTRAPPOLATI 15/08/2019 USA 20TH CENTURY FOX ITALIA S.P.A. € 55.539 7.675
5 LA RIVINCITA DELLE SFIGATE (BOOKSMART) 21/08/2019 USA EAGLE PICTURES S.P.A. € 50.058 7.073
6 MEN IN BLACK INTERNATIONAL 25/07/2019 USA WARNER BROS ITALIA S.P.A. € 30.550 4.245
7 SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME 10/07/2019 USA WARNER BROS ITALIA S.P.A. € 28.456 3.950
8 THE NEST (IL NIDO) 15/08/2019 ITA VISION DISTRIBUTION € 18.851 2.591
9 TOY STORY 4 26/06/2019 USA WALT DISNEY S.M.P. ITALIA € 9.813 1.437
10 L'OSPITE - UN VIAGGIO TRA I DIVANI DEGLI ALTRI 22/08/2019 ITA MOOD FILM S.R.L. € 9.125 1.301

 

Kind of a weak increase for The Lion King (+4.5%) but it's in line with the general weakness of this Sunday (+15% for H&S, +20% for Crawl and FFH, +25% for MIB and Booksmart; even the family oriented Toy Story 4, despite posting poor numbers and being the best candidate for a strong increase, only rose less than 40% from yesterday).

the lion king simba GIF by Walt Disney Studios

 

€ 2.963.336

414.615 admissions

 

7% increase on Sunday. And it wasn't a particularly strong say. In fact, only 2 other movies increased this Sunday: Spider Man (+13%) and Toy Story 4 (+100%, perfectly normal for a kids movie that's getting a good number of showings only on Sunday), all the others dropped.

Actuals will push the number above 3 millions, a barrier that even Endgame failed to pass on Sunday (it stopped at 2.7M). As much as I know, only Avatar and Alice in Wonderland managed to gross more than this, and neither of them burnt 1.6 million admissions the days before.

I guess now I can say it...

People use the word "locked" way too often.

Also, the day films were announced it was far from clar that Endgame would have grossed 30M in Italy. It was supposed to get a low 20's gross. All things alligned perfectly, and it reached a total we hadn't seen since the beginning of the decade. And...Italy's best comparison is usually Spain (2nd one probably Germany?) and TLK outgrossed Aladdin by 50/55% there. The same ratio would have put the Lion at 23M or so. And remember that Aladdin (1992), while less iconic, was only beaten by TLK by just 15% in admissions.

Aladdin underperformed to its potential across world, except South Korea, Japan and Middle East IMO.

 

Way it trended and the performance in above three, could have easily beaten BaTB, and may be 1.5Bn, if pre-release buzz was positive.

That's so true.

 

But using the German comp TLK outgrossed Aladdin by 143% and in the end will probably end around 170%.

Still, and talking about Italy of course, the maximum it could have grossed is BatB's 20.5M (big main star, totally centered on a princess, open marketplace...and BatB is more iconic here). Add 50%+ to that and you get 31M, or 2% above Endgame. No lock at all.

Another thing to take into account...TLK has not a princess (well, it has Nala, but...). Jungle Book is the lowest grossing LA movie here, and that's for a reason.

So..

TLK over € 30M

Frozen 2 over € 20M

SW IX over € 18M

Zalone over € 50M 

 

great year for BO 

Thinking sub-50M for Zalone. The thyphoon has passed.

And Frozen 2 should have sticked with its early 12th December release date, now it's too far from Christmas to reach its full potential. Though 20+ should still happen.

WEEKEND RESULTS (22nd-25th AUGUST)

 

RANK MOVIE WEEKEND GROSS HOLD TOTAL GROSS PROJECTED GROSS (M)
1 The Lion King 10.961.043 NEW 14.062.058 34.00
2 Hobbs & Shaw 623.411 -32% 5.266.666 6.30
3 Il Signor Diavolo (It) 422.054 NEW 426.856 1.20
4 Crawl 190.994 -38% 642.819 0.90

6 Spider Man: Far From Home 103.344

-38%

11.644.373 11.90
7 MIB International 100.017 -40% 2.730.845 2.90
8 The Nest - Il Nido (It) 69.973 -52% 296.884 0.40
9 Toy Story 4 43.599 -48% 6.143.669 6.30
10 L'Ospite (It/Fr) 26.673 NEW 29.299 0.10

 

The weekend was up 78.34% from the same weekend last year. As a result, 2019's lead on 2018 has gone up from 8.92 to 11.42%.

 

Long live the King!

No need to sing the praises of its performance. Among the many achievements we have:

* biggest August OD, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and weekend ever

* biggest Saturday and Sunday of the year

* OW is 90% bigger than Aladdin's and 55% bigger than BatB

* already the 3rd movie of the year (behind EG and Aladdin) after only 5 days of release

* already above 2M admissions after only 5 days of release (2.033.071)

* second biggest OW (and overall opening) ever for a Hollywood movie

 

1) Endgame > 12.13

2) The Lion King > 10.96

3) Avatar > 9.65 (3-day)

4) 50 Shades of Grey > 8.49 (lol !!!)

5) Breaking Down > 8.28

6) Alice in Wonderland > 8.16 (3-day)

 

It's unlikely to have the holds of Minions considering the amount of demand burnt and the stronger competition (=IT2 next week), but it's still basically certain to pass Endgame and likely to pass itself as the highest grossing non-Cameron Hollywood movie of all time.

 

Among the rest, movie survived The Lion King's arrival very well. Must be because anyone who doesn't want to see The Lion King has to pick something else, and with the alternative offering doing such weak numbers, even the bunch of causual moviegoers are enough for a nice hold. Also, many were back from their holidays.

 

Hobbs & Shaw got the best drop in the top 10. After a dysmal start, it recovered quite well and it's going to finish 20/25% above The Meg (which opened last year in the same slot) and with better legs than that. Still an awful total though, almost 60% lower than F&F8.

 

Spider Man is now extremely likely to pass The Amazing Spider Man and be the #4 Spider Man movie ever (behind the 3 Raimi's). Hard to predict that after its bad 2nd weekend hold.

 

Toy Story 4 survived TLK decently. It's going to be close between it and H&S.

 

Outside the top 10...Aladdin (saw it a 6th time yesterday) is still the chart! Aside from Toy Story 4, all the other movies (excluding the summer re-release of Il Traditore) are either July or August releases. It passed the 2.4M admission mark (2.404.440) and it will eventually beat Cinderella (2.410.000). Its cume is 15.404.941, a number that The Lion King should pass today.

 

Oh...and after months and months of struggling, Dumbo has finally reached the 2M admissions (2.002.379). Congratulations!

Can we Expect Lion King hit over €35m in Italy?

At this point I wonder if a 40M finish is actually possible.
