SchumacherFTW Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 (edited) I'm surprised at AC, it had the most muted response to any family film i've been to this year. Edited November 20, 2011 by Schumacher FTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I doubt that it would clear £15m, it took a massive drop at my cinema on Sunday. Amazing start nevertheless. It won't beat Eclipse's total, though, WoM is weaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robertron Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Very nice start for Breaking Dawn! I really cant believe the openings keep increasing film-on-film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Seriously don't know where you're getting the weaker WoM from.At my cinema people really dislike it. We'll see how it performs next week. It faces zero competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I've seriously only heard one person say disappointing, and anywhere from great to amazing from about ten other people. The reaction I saw in eastbourne today was pretty good as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 I'm not surprised it dropped. At my cinema Saturday was down about 40%, although if you take the midnight number off from ours it was up a little bit.Sunday is down about another 30%.It's up a tiny bit on Eclipse's first weekend + previews (so 5 day opening).Arthur Christmas is actually up 7% here, so expect a very small drop (or maybe even an increase) nationwide.AC doesn't have the same audience as Twilight and it has no competition until December although given HF2's dissapointed in America, it may underperform here.

Not to mention the OTHER xmas movie on Dec 9th. Can't wait to get me some Harold and Kumar again! I doubt it will bear any influence on AC, but a man can dream can't he.

PhilipJ2001 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 "Arthur Christmas went up in UK on second weekend (£2.32m vs £2.11m), following pattern of past festive flicks that opened so early pre-Xmas"as I predicted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 Wow that' great. Just like ACC two years ago, though, it's legs will be cut short so it won't reach the heights that got to. Could approach £15m though if it continues to stay flat/have small decreases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchumacherFTW Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Very impressive for Breaking Dawn, great hold for AC which I will forever struggle to understand as no one seemed to be enjoying it as much as I anticipated. Pretty much to be expected for Immortals after it's US drop, but dear god did I have fun watching it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 I've said this so many times now, but that's very impressive for BD1. Should be able to do between £28-30m.AC over £10m for sure. Tintin should be able to get to around £17m now, so not too bad.BD1 will probably drop around 65% to £4.8m. More than good enough for #1 again though. My Week With Marilyn doesn't look very good. I mean, Michelle Williams as Marilyn? It'll probably open decently. Maybe £1.5m. Same for Moneyball.

I mean, Michelle Williams as Marilyn? It'll probably open decently. Maybe £1.5m. Same for Moneyball. I'd put money on 50/50 doing better than Moneyball just because of the screen count. Also, has anyone heard of The Awakening? My cineworld's getting it on a single show per night basis and I know nothing about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 Yeah...I have no clue where Moneyball or 50/50 will end up. I guess it does come down to screen count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 I have seen a lot of publicity for that Marilyn Monroe film, I think it'll do well. Haven't seen anything for Moneyball, I can't see it doing well anyway since it is a baseball movie. Shame, it's one of the best films of the year.

The Dark Alfred Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 It's a massive week. Probably the best week of the entire year quality wise. Take Shelter, My Week With Marilyn, Moneyball, 50/50 and Deep Blue Sea. All five them look great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
