It must be having a very strong week. This is a rather downbeat outlook. Big budget Marvel movie + Cumberbatch should be = big box office in UK. Trolls? Are they the new Mini Me?

Heretic Posted October 30, 2016 Author Share Posted October 30, 2016 That's really good for Strange. And Trolls, I imagine it's already close to £15m. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchumacherFTW Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Cracking total from Trolls so far. Probably going to slow down a little more now, but there isn't anything in its path now until Moana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted November 2, 2016 Author Share Posted November 2, 2016 Bridget Jones became the biggest film of the year on Monday. Quote The phenomenon: Bridget Jones’s Baby It’s official: Bridget Jones’s Baby is now the biggest grossing film of 2016 at UK cinemas. Although it ended the weekend with £46.17m, just behind The Jungle Book’s £46.19m, Monday’s takings pushed Bridget to £46.27m. Other top titles this year include Finding Dory (£42.6m), Deadpool (£37.9m), Captain America: Civil War (£37.0m) and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (£36.6m). Not many would have predicted that the revival of Working Title’s Bridget Jones franchise would gross £10m more here than the year’s big superhero smackdowns from Marvel and DC. Incredible feat. Will probably just miss the £50m mark, although this result is already way higher than anyone was expecting. The only film that will most likely top it is Rogue One. Expecting around £60m for that. I give Fantastic Beasts a very outside chance as it is Potter property, although I'm not expecting Potter numbers in the UK, probably more like £40m, which would still be a great result. Moana should also do very well in the run up to Christmas, it should draw in families as the only animated release of the holidays. Wouldn't be surprised to see another £30m+ grosser there. Passengers also has big potential over the Christmas/New Year period, I can see that easily topping £20m, and making a run for £30m if it's good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Been a pretty good spread of cash this year, even if we haven't had any uber blockbusters yet. Kinda like 2013 and 14. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
