That is terrible. If it does similar numbers rest of europe then it wont even do 500m OS. I cant see this breaking out in China.

French boxoffice isn't a reference for the rest of Europe.

Zootopia is the number 1 of 2016 with only 4.8 mio admissions.

How about Germany. That looks weak to me as well. Probably will open around 1/3 of lowest potter opener.

Yes, Japan did horrible with Hobbit . With a more decent gross there the whole trilogy could have done 1 billion each.

 

Relative to China and FB, this should go well over $100m. DH2 already did $60m in 2011 and looking at figures that LOTR-HP did in 2001-2003 there, I think both franchises were equally liked, more or less. Considering that Hobbit 3 already did $120m last year and with 5 years inflation since DH2, it could reach $150m, maybe more.

 

Given how Hollywood films have been performing in China in the past year or so, I think it's worth hedging your bets. Look at predictions vs reality for Mission Impossible 5, Kung Fu Panda, Star Trek Beyond, etc. 

 

EDIT: Also, The Hobbit 3 would have been under $110M with the current Yuan-to-USD exchange.

Europe has been pretty weak in 2016 as a whole, it's not just France.

 

Still, Zootopia being first shows we can have great tastes sometimes

That is absolutely great. It is actually better than DS's second day, despite DS's OD being almost double the one of FB!

Also, comparing to DH2 after 2 days:

 

FB: 3.4m (515k adm)

DH2: 2.9m (441k admissions)

 

Was there a holiday today in SK or is it just fantastic WOM?

College entrance exams, those who didn't have exams took a day off.

Sure. I did not even remember to have posted that message. The difference is that China had just met its new top grosser ever when I posted that. The market has slowed down A LOT since then.

 

And I sincerely thought that Hobbit behaviour could be a good reference for Harry Potter, since LOTR and HP did similar figures in 2002-2004 and because DH2 already did over 400m Yuan 5 years ago. It is obvious that FB is not making 1 billion Yuan now. Maybe 500-600m is the target now.

I wonder today Thursday if Warner Brothers is going to give out the first day box office estimate numbers report for Fantastic Beasts worldwide since it opened yesterday in a few Countries like France and South Korea for example.

Indonesia scored a similar phenomenon with $480K on 690 screens for a Top 5 market share of over 75%. This is the best opening for a Wizarding World movie save for Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 2.

At least Asia will do its share, partly offsetting the downward trends in Europe.
