Heretic Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 Universal’s big screen adaptation of TV sitcom adds $3.7m (£2.2m) to record second week as the UK’s number one; Paramount’s Transformers: Age of Extinction previews strongly. With Transformers: Age of Extinction not being officially reported until next week’s chart, Mrs. Brown’s Boys D’Movie has retained top spot at the UK box office for the second straight week. Universal’s big screen outing for the popular TV sitcom enjoyed a second weekend take of $3.7m (£2.2m) for an excellent ten-day total of $15.9m (£9.3m). In terms of TV-to-film outings, that means it has already surpassed the $10.7m (£6.22m) lifetime total of Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa. The official arrival of Transformers: Age of Extinction and the nationwide expansion of How to Train Your Dragon 2will prevent the comedy from a third straight week as the UK’s number one, but it could still hold well as counter-programming to the blockbusters. PARAMOUNTAs with Bad Neighbours in May, Transformers: Age of Extinction will contain previews from July 5-10 in its official opening weekend on July 11-13. Paramount’s latest installment from the popular franchise is off to a strong start having grossed a non-final $8m (£4.7m) on Sat-Sun, a figure that incidentally would have seen it top the chart this weekend. It’s all-but guaranteed to record the biggest opening of 2014 to date next weekend, surpassing X-Men: Days of Future Past’s $15.6m (£9.13m) debut. FOXWith its full nationwide release to come on Friday, How to Train Your Dragon 2 banked $4.4m (£2.6m) on Fri-Sun from its Scotland and Ireland full release and nationwide previews in England and Wales. Fox’s animated sequel has flown to $10m (£5.8m) overall in the UK and Ireland to date, a chunk of which will be added to next weekend from its extensive previews in England and Wales over the past few weeks. Also for Fox, The Fault in Our Stars continued its healthy UK run with a third weekend of $1.6m (£951,231) for a running tally of $14.7m (£8.6m). X-Men: Days of Future Past and Belle have amassed $46m (£26.9m) and $2.7m (£1.6m), respectively. WARNER BROSThe week’s highest new entry came in the form ofTammy, which landed with a $799,000 (£466,000) UK bow from its 339 sites through Warner Bros. That’s down on the openings of Identity Thief and The Heat, but direct comparisons are unfair given that it’s the first solo lead for Melissa McCarthy. Also for Warner Bros, Edge of Tomorrow fought its way to a further $195,000 (£114,000) for $13m (£7.6m) to date, while Jersey Boys has grossed $2.2m (£1.3m) after three weeks in play. SONY22 Jump Street is now the highest grossing comedy of the year at the UK box office. Sony’s comedy sequel fell a respectable 45% in its fifth weekend to add $1.1m (£660,000) for a terrific $28.4m (£16.55m) to date. DISNEYDropping just 45% in its sixth weekend despite family competition from How to Train Your Dragon 2, Disney’sMaleficent conjured up an additional $769,000 (£449,000) for an excellent $29.8m (£17.36m). LIONSGATEIn its second weekend of release, Lionsgate’s Chefcooked up $329,000 (£192,590) to hit the £1m mark and stand at $1.9m (£1.1m). VERTIGO FILMS Walking on Sunshine recorded a second weekend of $275,000 (£160,218) from its 348 sites through Vertigo. The home-grown musical has sung its way to $1.5m (£890,604) after ten days in play. STUDIOCANALReleased in 86 sites through StudioCanal, The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared scored a $164,000 (£95,758) UK bow. The adaptation of the popular Swedish novel should see decent midweek returns given its target audience. ICON FILM DISTRIBUTIONCurrently playing in 109 sites, Jim Mickle’s well-receivedCold in July posted a second weekend of $93,000 (£54,493) through Icon Film Distribution for a ten-day tally of $531,000 (£309,863). METRODOMENoel Clarke’s sci-fi The Anomaly managed a $30,000 (£17,712) UK debut, including previews from its 68 sites through Metrodome. That’s significantly down on Clarke’s previous directorial outings, both of which did receive much wider releases though. Also for Metrodome, the re-release of A Hard Day’s Nightgrossed $17,000 (£9,935) from its nine sites, whileGoddess could only manage $221 (£129) from its four sites. ARTIFICIAL EYEThe timely release of Cycling with Molière recorded a $21,000 (£12,305) UK bow from its 20 sites through Artificial Eye. UPCOMING RELEASESThis week sees saturation releases for Paramount’sTransformers: Age of Extinction (out now), Universal’sBoyhood and eOne’s Begin Again. Fox’s How to Train Your Dragon 2 opens in England and Wales. Arrow Film’s Mr. Morgan’s Last Love expands to the UK, while Verve Pictures’ Love Me Till Monday and Axiom Films’ Goltzius and the Pelican Company are among the films receiving a limited release. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Films Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 (edited) That seems bad for Tammy and walking on sunshine should have earned so much more money. That release date move was awful, should have stayed on 13th June or gone to 18th July Edited July 7, 2014 by The Fault In Our Stars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 That seems bad for Tammy and walking on sunshine should have earned so much more money. That release date move was awful, should have stayed on 13th June or gone to 18th July I doubt Walking on Sunshine would have made much wherever it released. It didn't have a clear hook like Mamma Mia or even Sunshine on Leith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Walking on Sunshine is a rip off of Mamma Mia! I'm not surprised it's done poorly. Will be interesting to see if Dragon 2 out grosses the original, there's no similar competition until Planes 2 in August so it's doable.

Heretic Posted July 8, 2014 Author Share Posted July 8, 2014 HTTYD2 will easily outgross the first. It's already at $10m, and summer holidays start for schools in the next couple of weeks. $30m+ will happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lab276 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Don't know if there's been any mention of it so far, but May box office was 12.6m, down from 15.6m last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KATCH-2D2 Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Yeah....but were any of them huge? Not really. Same as US. Nothing over 300m. Those are bigger films compare to Trek/Gatsby/Fast, at least in budget. But just like in US people just chose not to see them. IM3 was so popular because of TA effect, the movie itself was at the same level as TASM2, with lower budget. If you ask me, B.O went down overall this year because there're too many blockbusters that they became too redundant and NOTHING was a must-see anymore.

pepsa Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 (edited) Captain america did much better than expected so, that was was good... Mal did better than OZ with a low budget.. You could say only Disney did there homework this year (so far), but disney didn't had real big oppeners.
