efialtes76 Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) I wonder how that $2.3m for TPM compares with it's opening day back in '99?OW(1999):£9,512,295($15.36m)! (1999)1dollar=0.6184 pounds Edited February 13, 2012 by efialtes76 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 So it's safe to say TPM had a bigger OD in '99 than an opening weekend in 2012. Mahoosive take there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 Wow...never knew it was so big back in the day. That would probably adjust to near £15m now...or higher. And without any gimmicks or IMAX etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonwo Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 The Muppets did well, it wasn't too far behind WIB, should do well this week. The Vow did okay but I expect it'll have good weekdays and do strong business Valentines Day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Muppets this afternoon was packed when I saw it today. They had chairs set up at the back it was so busy. TPM only had about 30 people in it though, but I blame that it was an 11am show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchumacherFTW Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 They are. Tomorrow will be packed as its valentines, and wednesday during half term is fucking vile to be around sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 The Vow should do well on Valentine's Day as should The Woman in Black. Will be interesting how the This Means War previews do although they won't be counted until the film's released in two weeks They are. Tomorrow will be packed as its valentines, and wednesday during half term is fucking vile to be around sometimes..I never go to the cinema on Wednesdays simply because its too busy unless there's a film I really want to see.

The Dark Alfred Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Muppets will win next weekend. WIB will grab #2. New openers: GR2 £1.2m, Extremely Loud $0.7m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Looking at the upcoming new releases, I think March is going to be a busy month. John Carter should debut well £3-4 OW, The Hunger Games £3-4m OW perhaps higher, The Pirates! should be a hit over the Easter Holiday given it's pretty much the only kids film at Easter, £4-5m five days and Wrath of the Titans should do well £5-6m OW. There's also Streetdance 2 but I can't see that doing well as the competition is much tougher this time and also 21 Jump Street which should do okay.

Heretic Posted February 14, 2012 Author Share Posted February 14, 2012 The Hunger Games could be pretty big here. There are always gasps when I see the trailer with movies. I could easily see over £6m for opening weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
