How can it not have good WOM if it hasn't even opened in China yet? People seeing it in other places (i.e. HK) early?

Want to see index is climbing fast now with marketing and premiere. It should have an AOU type OD  on Sunday the 9th. $35m~. China doesn't always follow HK. After droping 40-60%. It could hold flat mon-thursday with great WOM and have a huge weekend to follow(200m+) or drop 15%+ per day and fade into oblivion(100m) in 10 days.

DISNEY

Star Wars: The Force Awakens ... .

Even with most cinemas closed on Friday [Dec 25], ... a $15m (£10.16m) second weekend ... retained the top spot for the second straight week. Despite the opening effectively spanning two days, the result ranks as the fourth-biggest second weekend in the UK.

Including Monday [Dec 28], The Force Awakens is up to a remarkable $106.7m (£72.1m) after just 12 days in play. Yesterday’s tally of $9.3m (£6.25m) broke its own $8.6m (£5.83m) record for the biggest ever Monday at the UK box office.

... seventh biggest film of all time and by the end of this coming weekend, it will be at least the fourth biggest film of all time which is currently Titanic’s $118.6m (£80.1m).

Today [Dec 29] will see it become Disney’s biggest release ever in the UK, currently Toy Story 3’s $109.5m (£74m) haul.

If it continues at this remarkable rate - which has seen it become the first film ever to hit £50m in seven days - The Force Awakens could be close to overtaking Spectre as the year’s biggest film to date.

Also for Disney,  The Good Dinosaur added $592,000 (£400,000) over the weekend and a further $555,000 (£375,000) yesterday to reach $15.5m (£10.5m).

Dilwale posted a second weekend of $516,000 (£349,000) through Disney’s UTV distributor and now stands at $2.7m (£1.8m).

FOX

After previewing throughout December, Fox’s Snoopy And Charlie Brown: A Peanuts Movie posted an overall UK debut of $5.4m (£3.64m) from its 563 sites to chart second.

Over its opening weekend (effectively just Sat-Sun), the film took $883,000 (£594,819) with its ten days of previews providing the chunk of its opening at $4.5m (£3.04m).

A healthy gross of $774,000 (£521,808) yesterday means A Peanuts Movie is up to $6.2m (£4.16m) and indicates a positive week ahead with the film aiming to make the most of the school holidays.

PARAMOUNT

From just a two-day opening, Paramount’s Daddy’s Home recorded a strong $2.4m (£1.62m) debut from its 436 sites to land third.

That marks director Sean Anders’ best-ever UK bow, ahead of Horrible Bosses 2’s $1.9m (£1.26m) from 438 sites, and it will soon overtake that film’s $5.4m (£3.6m) result as Anders’ best-ever performer.

Officially, Daddy’s Home will rank behind the $2.9m (£1.98m) debut of the previous Will Ferrell/Mark Wahlberg comedy The Other Guys. However, taking into account the third day of release for Daddy’s Home yesterday, it is ahead of that three-day opening at $3.9m (£2.61m).

WARNER BROS

Like Daddy’s Home, Warner Bros’ In the Heart of the Sea sailed into UK cinemas on Saturday [Dec 26] and posted a $660,000 (£446,000) debut from its 514 sites.

Even taking into account its Monday gross, the $1m (£689,000) opening for the film ranks as one of director Ron Howard’s lowest UK bows, some way short of Howard’s last collaboration with Chris Hemsworth, Rush’s $3.1m (£2.1m) from 457 sites.

UNIVERSAL

Sisters couldn’t repeat its strong domestic hold at the UK box office as it dropped more than 50% (excluding previews).

Universal’s comedy added $212,000 (£142,387) for a running total of $2.9m (£1.95m). This coming weekend will give an indication as to whether the drop was predominantly down to most cinemas being shut on Christmas Day.

Good number. Definitely should be going over 600m today.

Are we looking at a 75-80M 3rd weekend for this?

80m will probably be on the low end. I'm thinking more like 90-100m. That obviously depends on how well it holds throughout the week.

A $100M third weekend requires a 32.9% drop or less just so we know.

 

Minus previews, this last weekend was a 22% drop.  That's also not taking into account the bad weather that effected the weekend by at least 5m or so.

 

A 32.9% drop is definitely doable.
