The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies OS Thread | 700M OS passed

[Elessar]

Probably 17m more on China plus 4m domestic plus existing markets could gain 10m so 939+17+4+10=970M WW

 

$17m more in China will be difficult.

[peludo]

My bad, i didnt know that those countries were also present.

Anyway, is BOFA beating DOS WW possible? cause im curious.

I would say it will be very close. $3m more from US, maybe $4-5m more from OS markets excluding China, and another $12-13m from China to reach $125m. About the same than DOS.

[Asyulus]

$17m more in China will be difficult.

Since it keeps up, despite losing showtimes it has still very good drops.

[Elessar]

But not good enough. Sunday's drop was pretty harsh. Monday will be bellow $1m.

[Leyla]

well it lost more screens so its understandable 

 

at least my 112 prediction was wrong yay!

NZ Boxoffice

 

Ticket sales were up at the Kiwi box office last year, with the third Hobbit instalment helping to boost the total in the home stretch, writes Tom Cardy.

Sir Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies has also won the battle of the Kiwi box office.

Figures released by the Motion Picture Distributors' Association show that the film was the biggest grossing film in New Zealand last year.

The movie earned $6.1 million, in the last three weeks of 2014, beating The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 ($5.8m) which was the second most popular film of the year.

The blockbusters also helped the country's cinemas break admissions records, earning a new high of $183m. The previous record was $176.5m in 2010. Earnings were also up by 5 per cent on 2013, when the biggest film was Iron Man 3.

All of the films in the top 10 were fantasy or science fiction, with the exception of drama Philomena.

While The Battle of the Five Armies was largely shot in Wellington and Wellington's Weta Digital did the visual effects for Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, no New Zealand-set or themed film made the top 10.

This was despite several good performers in 2014, including the Wellington-set mockumentary What We Do in the Shadows and dramas The Dark Horse and The Dead Lands.

However, What We Do in the Shadows earned more than $2.5m, about double that of Mt Zion, the top Kiwi film of 2013.

After eight weeks The Battle of the Five Armies, which is still screening in some cinemas, has grossed $7.9m.

In China it is biggest movie in months yet they have cut all it's screen's such a strange policy to do that.

[MonstersandRoy]

Probably 17m more on China plus 4m domestic plus existing markets could gain 10m so 939+17+4+10=970M WW

 

Very optimistic. Probably won't get $4m domestic or $10m in existing markets other than China. It's getting crumbs from domestic and international now. Would need to earn $130m in China, but the way it's losing screens, $120-$125m looks most likely.

[Pypa94]

But not good enough. Sunday's drop was pretty harsh. Monday will be bellow $1m.

 

Estimates Monday China:

7M (1,12 M$)

[Elessar]

Good. Still don't see +$17m.

[Pypa94]

Good. Still don't see +$17m.

Unfortunately me too :/ but still it's impressive run despite China's philosophy of showtimes share 

[Asyulus]

Existing markets w/o China: 5m

 

13m left for China, i reckon it.

 

3.5m from domestic markets.

[Pypa94]

Tuesday Estimates China

 

BOTFA 5.6 M (0.9M$)

[Dementeleus]

I updated the title to reflect more recent OS numbers.

[Leyla]

Nice

[Asyulus]

Is 700m OS still possible?

[Elessar]

It'll scrape by it. Hopefully.

[Asyulus]

686M+10M FROM CHINA+9.5m from existing markets= 705.5m OS

 

256m will be the final domestic cume.

 

705.5+256= 961.5m WW

[TacoBell]
