2018 Box Office Soaring to Record $11.9B in U.S., $42B Globally

 

Quote

Revenue is up nearly 3 percent worldwide, fueled by a 7 percent uptick at the North American box office.

Global box-office revenue for 2018 is expected to hit an all-time high of $41.7 billion, fueled by a record haul in North America of $11.9 billion, Comscore said Thursday.

If Comscore's projections hold, domestic revenue will end up seven percent ahead of 2017 ($11.1 billion) and four percent ahead of the record set in 2016, when combined ticket sales clocked in at a record $11.4 billion. Attendance for 2018 is up over last year by about four percent.

Foreign box-office revenue is projected to come in at $29.8 billion, a one percent uptick over 2017 ($29.5 billion). Part of the reason for the relatively static result is fluctuating currency exchange rates.

Globally, revenue looks to be up 2.7 percent over 2017, when combined worldwide ticket sales clocked in at a record $40.6 billion.

2018 marks one of the few times in recent memory that North America drove the growth spurt, versus international revenue

Disney, which is on the verge of acquiring 20th Century Fox, commands an unprecedented 27 percent of the domestic market share. And its global ticket sales have already crossed $7 billion for the year, only the second time that any studio has done so (Disney was the first).

Overall, a well-received crop of tentpoles and other event pics appealing to a diverse audience helped to fuel the boom. Top earners include Avengers: Infinity War and Black Panther — both from Disney/Marvel — Universal's Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Disney/Pixar's Incredibles 2 and Sony's Venom.

About 2M higher than I expected. Expected it to do 30M over Wednesday and Thursday, will do around 33-34M I think. Looks like a roughly 52M 2nd weekend in store.

$290m-310m seems safe right now. Anything more than that possible?

Trailer Impact: ‘Lego Movie 2’ Posts Highest Recall w/ 23.9%; ‘Avengers: Endgame’ Posts Near-Record Interest in a Cinema View at 77.4%

Quote

Moviegoers tell us the trailers they most recall seeing at their most recent visit to a cinema, among films opening in the next 10 weeks.

However, we’re making an exception to our usual “next 10 weeks” rule… read on…

https://pro.boxoffice.com/trailer-impact-12-27-18/

 

The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part

23.9% of moviegoers (247 respondents) saw and recalled this trailer.

 

  • That’s a new peak, up from 14.9% last week and a prior 17.0% peak.
  • It spends its first week both in the top three and at #1, having previously reached as high as #4 last week.
  • Chris Pratt and Elizabeth Banks star in this animated sequel about the adventures of the popular building-block toys.

The Lion King

  • While Trailer Impact usually only measures films coming out in the next 10 weeks, we added The Lion King to the survey three weeks ago, after it posted the second-most global views online ever for a trailer within its first 24 hours.
  • 20.6% of moviegoers (213 respondents) saw and recalled this trailer.
  • That’s a new peak, up from 13.6% last week and a prior 15.3% peak.
  • It spends its first week in the top three, at #2, having previously reached as high as #5 last week.
  • Donald Glover voices the title character in the CGI remake of the original 1994 2D-animated musical classic.

A Dog’s Way Home

18.3% of moviegoers (190 respondents) saw and recalled this trailer.

  • That’s a new peak, up from a prior 12.9% peak last week.
  • It spends its week in the top three, at #3, having previously ranked as high as #6 last week.
  • The family-friendly movie about a lost dog hopes to replicate the sleeper success of 2017’s A Dog’s Purpose, both based on books by W. Bruce Cameron.

Top Three Trailers with Highest Cinema Interest Among Moviegoing Audiences

Moviegoers tell us the wide release titles they’re most likely to see at a cinema, based on trailers recently played at theaters, among films opening in the next 10 weeks.

However, we’re making an exception to our usual “next 10 weeks” rule. In fact, “exception” might be an understatement, because NONE of this installment’s top three movies are coming out in the next 10 weeks.

Avengers: Endgame

  • While Trailer Impact usually only measures films coming out in the next 10 weeks, we added Avengers: Endgame to the survey last week, after it posted the most global views online ever for a trailer within its first 24 hours.

77.4% of respondents who saw the Endgame trailer this week said they intend to see it in theaters.

  • That’s the second-highest number measured since the metric’s March inception, behind only Endgame‘s own record 78.6% last week.
  • It spends it second week in the top three, both at #1.
  • Considering its new records on the “interest in a cinema view” metric, it might surprise that Endgame only ranks #7 on the recall metric this week, at 15.3%.
  • However, that’s an improvement from last week’s debut in both rank (from #10) and score (from 9.0%).
  • A massive ensemble cast led by Robert Downey Jr., Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Chris Hemsworth, and Jeremy Renner star in this intended final installment of the blockbuster Avengers superhero franchise.

Captain Marvel

While Trailer Impact usually only measures films coming out in the next 10 weeks, we added Captain Marvel to the survey this week, 12 weeks out.

 

  • 70.7% of respondents who saw the Captain trailer this week said they intend to see it in theaters.
  • That’s the third-highest number measured since the metric’s March inception, behind only the past two weeks’ numbers for Avengers: Endgame. (See above.)
  • Captain spends its first week in the top three, at #2.
  • Brie Larson and Samuel L. Jackson star in this superhero origin story, Marvel’s first female lead after rival DC Comics struck box office gold with Wonder Woman.

The Lion King

(again, other ...)

  • While Trailer Impact usually only measures films coming out in the next 10 weeks, we added The Lion King to the survey three weeks ago, after it posted the second-most global views online ever for a trailer within its first 24 hours.
  • 63.9% of respondents who saw the Lion trailer this week said they intend to see it in theaters.
  • That’s down slightly from 64.2% last week and a prior 64.6% peak, but still ranks as one of the highest scores Trailer Impact has ever measured.
  • Donald Glover voices the title character in the CGI remake of the original 1994 2D-animated musical classic.

I genuinely am not sure how much MPs to that HD TS version is affecting Aquaman.

 

the HD TS version seems to be from China, with hard coded Chinese subtitles. And I hate to say this, but the quality is pretty good.

 

I myself watched the film thrice in theatres, and 2 of those occasions were in IMAX. Not a fan of piracy and really despise piracy.

 

That pirated copy has millions of views from various piracy Facebook page + almost 10,000 seeds on Piratebay.

 

It will definitely affect legs, even if not in domestic BO but definitely international BO especially in emerging markets and Many parts of Asia where piracy is rampant.

Is that a new version or the one that already came out 2 weeks ago?
