Heretic Posted October 2, 2016 Author Share Posted October 2, 2016 Incredible, it has a shot at £45m, maybe even could top The Jungle Book as biggest film of the year, which would be absolutely insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If The Girl on the Train doesn't knock Bridget Jones off the top spot then Inferno probably will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted October 2, 2016 Author Share Posted October 2, 2016 (edited) £3.5m for Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. Actually a great opening. Edited October 2, 2016 by Heretic 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efialtes76 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Ian Sandwell @ian_sandwell 6 h Bridget Jones's Baby fell only 26% with a £4.8m third weekend in the UK for a stonking £31.4m after only 17 days in play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCS Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Wow, what a beast. I knew it would be a big hit but this is mad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 Girl on The Train should be able to dethrone Bridget Jones this weekend, but maybe not for the 3 day. It has a 5 day opening and has had fantastic marketing, I think an opening near Gone Girl's £4.1m is doable, although that was a 4-day opening. Bridget should still be able to manage a strong 4th weekend, perhaps staying above £3m, which might be enough to give it the 3-day crown. By Sunday it'll probably be over £37m, and looks set to fly past £40m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Girl on the Train will open well but it won't have the legs that Gone Girl had. Edited October 4, 2016 by Jonwo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

efialtes76 Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 (edited) Threequel Bridget Jones’s Baby passed £30m over its third weekend at the UK box office, posting a three-day total of £4,806,809. The film’s running total stands at a mighty £32,849,268 as of Wednesday morning (Oct 5). As of Wednesday morning, one of the weekend’s big releases – Tim Burton’s Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children – stood at £4,017,553, having taken £3,353,598 over its three-day weekend. Peter Berg’s disaster movie Deepwater Horizon opened to £1,984,240 from 487 sites, including previews of £219,641. That result puts it behind Berg’s 2012 action sci-fi Battleship, which opened to £3,763,348 (£1,508,708 previews) and went on to gross £7,796,069, but above his 2013 war drama Lone Survivor, which opened to £751,107. Antoine Fuqua’s western The Magnificent Seven posted a three day total of £1m, pushing it to £4.35m to date. Finding Dory added £365,942 for a total of £41,736,238, while Pete’s Dragon posted £71,411 for a running total of £4,917,055.

Heretic Posted October 7, 2016 Author Share Posted October 7, 2016 (edited) UK BO will shrink massively if the pound keeps plummeting. Yesterday for a brief period it dropped below 1.2. It'll become increasingly difficult for a film to even hit $50m anymore. Sad. Long gone are the days of regular $80m hits.

Purple Minion Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Bridget Jones's Baby looks to have lost top spot to The Girl on the Train in the UK, but still added estimated £2.9m for £39.2m so far. pic.twitter.com/d1norHnRG6— Ian Sandwell (@ian_sandwell) 9 October 2016 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 Just massive. Looks like it has a very good chance to top The Jungle Book for number 1 of the year. Could get close to £50m at this rate, which would be one of the most impressive runs ever imo. Quote Ian Sandwell @ian_sandwell 2h2 hours ago Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children adds around £2.4m in the UK for £7.2m to date. This is also doing very well, much better than expected.
