Jonwo Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 The Meg getting to number 1 is impressive considering it was in almost 200 less cinemas than the rest of the top 5. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At my theatre, I went to watch MM2 for round 3 last night, and it was busier than last saturday evening (not even joking). MM2 also has more scheduled times than Meg at my theatre. If anything could stay flat, MM2 can do it Apperently it was I2 who could do it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonwo Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 The UK box office is doing solid business with the top 4 doing £2m+. I think Sony will be pleased with how The Equalizer 2 as will Disney with Christopher Robin. I2 is in touching distance of £50m and I imagine it'll get there by either today or Wednesday. The Meg is the surprise hit of the summer and it'll probably end its run near or at £15m. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Alfred Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 MM2 still pacing ahead of the first one. Could end anywhere between £65m-70m. Even IW can be caught. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxalcamo Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 (edited) this franchise is not so popular only because of Abba popularity or Across the Universe would be the most successful jukebox musical ever. Abba music is perfect for this kind of story, characters, locations, style of comedy etc... The combination of all this makes it a perfect product for its audience.

It's not just Sweden, it's also Norway $16.8M and Avatar had $14.2M and Kon-Tiki $14.1M. In Iceland it's just second to Avatar in 2008-2018: Avatar: 1.128M and MM: 1.102M. And just loving Abba doesn't mean the film will blow everything away. In Germany they have the fourth most sold Album, yet MM did only $39M (Avatar did $162M, TFA did $111M, Hobbit I did $89M, Hobbit II did $88M TLJ did $83M) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be curious what will do well in September, unlike last year or 2016, there's no real big standout. I think Crazy Rich Asians will do quite well although it's opening in a tough week with The Predator and King of Thieves. October looks very strong with Venom, A Star is Born, Johnny English in the first weekend of October followed by First Man and Bohemian Rhapsody Edited September 2, 2018 by Jonwo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omni Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Yeah, I don't know why Quigley is so surprised by the fact that a movie "based" on a British book and played by a famous Scottish actor is doing average numbers instead of the disaster it's doing elsewhere.
