But Krampus left clues.

That’s good that Kingsman is approaching a $400m total now. 

 

Shame about that dreadful Happy Death Day drop. Going to see it tonight. 

[DAJK]

HDD only dropped 45% at my theatre (granted it only opened to our equivalent of 23M) so I just pretend like the real weekend drop doesn't exist

[CJohn]

@MCKillswitch123 the country was taken by the Geostorm

Solid-ish opening for The Snowman considering everything.

[a2k]

2.5x will give Geo ~33m with a 13.3 ow. Will be tough to go much higher than that considering Thor3 is around the corner and that same weekend Geo will be in the 3rd weekend so the tc will drop after the 2 week safety.

The power of and tsunamis compells us all.

 

Not bad for Snowman indeed. How much did Assassin's Creed and Macbeth did in Portugal (I assume Covenant did okay)?

Assassin's Creed was massive. It ended with 172.000 tickets sold in total, it was fucking ridiculous  

 

Alien: Convenant ended with almost 115.000 tickets sold after selling 75.000 tickets over the Festa do Cinema week  

 

Macbeth I don't remember. It was a very small release but if I recall correctly it performed ok.

Could Portugal, please, adopt Fassy and keep him busy with hit Portuguese movies so that he doesn't bankrupt Hollywood?

No surprise at all that Assassin's was huge. Portugal has a pretty proactive gaming community, and AC is one of the biggest gaming brands in the world. Do you have results for Warcraft, Ratchet & Clank and Angry Birds (the other vg movies of 2016)?

 

WOW, Covenant was frontloaded

[WrathOfHan]

It's amazing how quickly The Foreigner has collapsed by me. Last week, basically every show was 50-55% full and it was the busiest movie at the theater by far, but the first show today sold nothing  The openers' first shows today aren't that busy save for Madea:

 

Madea: 19/124 (starts in 15 minutes)

Only the Brave: 14/113

Geostorm: 11/78

The Snowman: 9/78

Different: 7/78 (starts in 10 minutes)

[dudalb]

I love it when people try to prove the films that flopped really did.nt flop........

R&C tanked, I don't remember how much it made but it bombed hard. Warcraft sold around 105.000 tickets in total which is good, and Angry Birds was a phenom among kids ending with a ridiculous amount tickets sold, around 275.000 I think.

 

Tickets on the Festa do Cinema are 3.5€. It explains why Covenant was so frontloaded.

Yeah, WC had good results. It did have a pretty good OS performance, all things considered (though not quite enough to break even, but I wouldn't call Universal completely mental if they considered a sequel). I still maintain that it could've done 900M or even 1B WW if it was a good movie. But oh well.

 

Sad for R&C. It's one of the "best" video game movies (yeah it's a dumb kids movie, but it nails the feel of the games.... it's way better than any Resident Evil movie, or Assassin's Creed). Better than Angry Birds too. Though I'm not surprised about AB exploding, honestly.

 

3.5€ is around where I pay in my nearby theater for any movie in 2D, without concessions. Soooo...... that wouldn't be the biggest issue for me. That being said, how much does Festa do Cinema cost, again?

I remember reading Universal and Legendary have in fact considered a sequel but Universal isn't in desperate need of franchises so it seems obvious why they never moved forward with it. Warcraft opened pretty well (around 44.000 tickets if I remember) but disappeared fast.

 

Speaking of Resident Evil, the final one pretty much flopped here compared to the rest. That movie was a China only thing. R&C actually had a very big marketing campaign by Outsider, but it bombed on their hands. They even had the original version playing in a few theaters to empty seats.

 

3.5€ is a crazy price for most people, so those 3 days in May are fucking insanity. This year theaters sold over 200.000 tickets over those 3 days. Unreal.

 

Totally off-topic, but who is the lady on your avatar? An actress or something?

OH, I got it now. Such a good price led to a massive OW (75K tickets for an R-rated horror movie is pretty great), and then when everything went back to normal people were like "nah, thanks"   Poor Ridley, he can't catch a break with his George Lucasing of the Alien saga (even if Covenant was technically a success, but that's because Fox is getting fiscally responsible, otherwise.....).

 

Yeah, that was pretty much Warcraft in a nutshell: the opening, large or small, was the greater sum of its parts. It broke all pre-sales records in China, only to end just over 200M in that territory, when the vast majority expected 300M+. If it were a good movie, it could have reached 300M, maybe close to 400M, in the Middle Kingdom, around 100M in the States and then another good chunk everywhere else. As is, Universal kinda lost their golden opportunity to create a cash cow, and if they ever move forward with a sequel, it will unquestionably go down. So yeah. Still, might be best for them not to sink Warcraft's name further more, if Legendary's next sequel attempt - Pacific Rim 2 - looks like any indication.... God that trailer was woeful.

 

GOOD that RE flopped. Fuck those movies. They blow balls. I really hope that, if they do move forward with a reboot, they actually get someone competent to direct, and not Goddamn Paul WS "I made the only good video game movie (Mortal Kombat) and then destroyed the most iconic horror game franchise ever" Anderson.
