SchumacherFTW Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Looks like Rama is fighting his way back to the UK In April. The Raid 2 has got a date at long last of April 11th. A week before spiderman and 2 weeks after captain America. Can it go as wide as The Raid did back in 2012? Granted it came out during a dry May but I've never seen a foreign film go as wide as that did straight off the bat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 Looks like Lego is going to be pretty big. Should do huge business over half term, $30m+ wouldn't surprise me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 Didn't think much of Robocop's BO potential, but it actually looks very solid tonight. Should have a decent opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Mr Peabody and Sherman will beat Robocop although I think The Lego Movie previews will dent both films. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 I think Lego will beat Mr Peabody EASILY on Saturday and Sunday, and completely overshadow it over half term which starts next weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Peabody had about 20 people at my 2pm screening. Seeing as that was 3D, it wasn't a bad turnout. I Feel for Dreamworks here, PB&S is a good film, very funny in places, in ways that the kids won't get, but Lego is just looming so big on the horizon. There is so much buzz for itthat Peabody has no chance to compete. It's previews plus OW will likely be beaten by Lego's previews alone!

Heretic Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 Lego's opening with previews could hit $10m imo. Gonna be very big, kids are thirsty, there hasn't been an animated movie since the beginning of December. Plus, it's getting later shows than most kids films which suggests it's catering to a wider audience, too. Peabody will still do good business over half term, though.

SchumacherFTW Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 I think that preview number is a little high, I don't think DM2 even managed to get that high. $5/6m sounds closer to what I expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 I meant it's full opening next weekend with previews added. I'd say around $5m for this Saturday and Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Whoops, sorry man, I misread that. If it can take in $4m this weekend, I think en official opening of $10m is all but guaranteed. If it goes higher? Who knows, but anything over $10m/£6m is a blockbuster opening! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 Should be bigger than Tangled was in the February half term 3 years ago. Also... Tom Linay @TomLinay 4h Gravity crossed the £30m mark this week. You go Gravity. #Gravity #Achievement #Goldstar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Wreck it Ralph last year did £4.5m so Lego I think should be able to beat that, anything over £5m would be fantastic but it doesn't really need a huge OW since half term will will likely boost both Lego and Mr Peabody and Sherman. Think Dreamworks and Fox underestimated Lego when they scheduled Peabody but I think they didn't want it to clash with Rio 2 which is a Fox film as well.

Heretic Posted February 8, 2014 Author Share Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) sarah allen @sarah19allen 1h #RoboCop opened to £646k last night to become top of the UK market! #yes #comeonweekendno1 pic.twitter.com/VK6D8vrw05 Pretty good, could manage close to £2m, maybe a bit over. Today, however, will be dominated by animations. It looks like Lego Movie and Peabody will be able to co-exist. Both look very busy, in some place Peabody actually looks busier. Frozen's got less showtimes now, but it's still doing really well. Edited February 8, 2014 by Heretic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted February 8, 2014 Author Share Posted February 8, 2014 Peabody actually looked busier than Lego today around my area. But Lego had more showtimes. Surprising, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
