wildphantom Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Parasite - Moved to the biggest screen in my local. Unheard of that they’d move a film halfway through the week. It was playing in a screen a third of the size until today. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddevil19 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 It's a shame they opened Parasite so late. I absolutely loved the movie - definitely my favorite of the nominees and a deserved winner of BP. Would have been great if more people had the chance to see it before this weekend, but better late than never. I hope it will benefit from the well-deserved attention and continues making bank. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildphantom Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 (edited) Parasite - £2.5 million weekend (£5,852 average from 430 cinemas). 133% increase after expansion and it’s also adding another 100 cinemas this coming weekend. When you take into account the sell-outs due to it not being able to play in multiple screens due to pre-existing deals movies like Sonic will have had - it’s a staggering number. Should hold very well all week and next weekend. Its screen average was down only 26% from when it was playing in less than a third of the amount of theatres last weekend. Amazing really. Total is at £5.1 million, already the third highest grossing film not in the English language ever in the U.K. Has Crouching Tiger (£9.4 million) and Passion of the Christ (£11.1 million) firmly in its sights. Sonic opened big at no.1 with £4.7 million from 616 cinemas.

Dolittle had previews the weekend before which were added to its total so the drop is more like 40%. Birds of Prey had a good drop with 37.5%, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the studios are adamant on including them in the weekend numbers, so that’s the drop they have to accept. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted February 17, 2020 Author Share Posted February 17, 2020 Parasite will easily become the highest grossing foreign-language film of all time. Amazing performance. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COTW I had a feeling wouldn't do great as it's not well known in the UK. Dolittle's success is proof that parents in the UK will bring their kids to any old crap to keep them entertained. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ipickthiswhiterose Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) Delighted to see Emma and Parasite doing such solid business. Looks like Emma has opened below David Copperfield but is already well ahead. The family group is just the standard unit for UK cinemagoers, isn't it. Dolittle isn't much of a surprise, just a disappointment. Lion King getting to $100m when Infinity War didn't (even with some ER variance) is just a perfect encapsulation of the sheer churning mechanism of family cinemagoing over here.

KenterKane Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 No Time to Die opens in a month, how big is the hype? Similar to Skyfall or Spectre? There´s chance that this film reach those films? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There´s chance that this film reach those films? I don't know why but I have the feeling that No Time to Die will have a big drop in uk in comparaison with Spectre and Skyfall, I think something like around $85M-$95M and I think this drop will not help this movie, my prediction is something around $700M-$750M worldwide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
