wildphantom Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 (edited) My beloved Everyman isn’t even showing The Last Duel this weekend!?!? I’m borderline about to go down there with pitchforks! There’s zero chance I’m seeing a no doubt beautifully photographed Ridley epic with dim projection anywhere else.

Dandeak2000 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 The 12-screener I go to has this - Spoiler Venom: Let There Be Carnage - 18 showings (Fri / Sat) / 17 showings (Sun) / 14 showings (Mon - Wed) / 9 showings (Thu) No Time to Die - 11 showings (Fri - Sun) / 10 showings (Mon / Tue) / 11 showings (Wed) / 9 showings (Thu) Dune - 11 showings (Thu) Halloween Kills - 7 showings (Fri / Sat) / 6 showings (Sun) / 5 showings (Mon - Thu) Ron's Gone Wrong - 7 showings (Fri - Sun) / 6 showings (Mon - Wed) / 3 showings (Thu) The Addams Family 2 - 6 showings (Fri - Sun) / 5 showings (Mon - Wed) / 2 showings (Thu) The Last Duel - 3 showings (Fri - Thu) Paw Patrol: The Movie - 3 showings (Fri - Sun) / 1 showing (Mon) The Croods: A New Age - 1 showing Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings - 1 showing Sat / Sun: Space Jam: A New Legacy - 1 showing Mon: Dune - Limitless Screening - 1 showing Tue: Juice + Recorded Q&A - 1 showing The 5-screener near me hasn't even bothered with The Last Duel, Halloween Kills is on late night showings. With the addition of Dune it's just No Time to Die. The Addams Family (1 show), Venom 2, Halloween Kills (1 show). Honsla Rakh (1 show), Ron's Gone Wrong and Dune all with 3 or 4 showings unless otherwise stated. This is going to be a very interesting weekend...

Yeah, The Last Duel is getting just 3 screenings a day at my regular. Seems it has been forgotten about, I'm not surprised to be honest. Halloween Kills, Ron's Gone Wrong and Venom 2 are definitely safer bets this upcoming weekend. That's the one problem with a crowded market, some film is bound to be missed out.

Krissykins Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Space Jam 2 beating Jungle Cruise despite opening £800k less and two weeks earlier with awful reviews. LeBron James is practically unknown here. Strength of the Space Jam name I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is usually pretty good, but I have new high standards of projection I’m used to with Everyman My Everyman - Bond, Venom, Halloween, Ron, Addams 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnokesLegs Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 1 hour ago, Krissykins said: It really does seem to be getting screwed, so unfair. I managed to get tickets for a nice sized room, but still. Although not as screwed as at your cinemas. At my two locals it has 7 and 9 screenings on Friday. Candyman only has one showing left at one of the cinemas. Could it be that they haven’t fully updated their showtimes yet? Unfortunately not, they’re fully updated. To be fair, it is one of the biggest Cineworld’s with 20 screens, so it’s still getting 7 showings a day (plus one VIP), it’s just surprising that Candyman is still getting 6. I’m happy that Candyman is still doing decently enough to keep on though, I’m just surprised that Universal didn’t push for them to have more Halloween showings.

Jonwo Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 The BFI IMAX is not showing Venom 2 which isn't too surprising, I suspect NTTD had a three week clause since it's filmed in IMAX. Cineworld LS has it in IMAX for one evening showing with Bond taking the earlier showings, I'm surprised they didn't just put Venom in the Superscreen and have Bond in IMAX for another week.

wildphantom Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 to be fair, U.K. cinemas probably don’t want to make way for anything when they’ve a movie that’s just pulled in £15 million in its second weekend. Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At my local Cineworld, it’s in the small/mid size screens and only has one more showing per day than Candyman is currently still getting. At The Light it’s got two showings per day in one of their smallest screens… I know it’s up against Bond and Venom, but you’d have thought it’d have at least got one of the bigger screens on a Friday/Saturday night. Same here in Denmark. Only a few evening screens in small rooms. JB and Venom are selling way to good Edited October 12, 2021 by fmpro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted October 12, 2021 Author Share Posted October 12, 2021 (edited) I don’t see the issue with Halloween showtimes. It’s a horror, the majority of people won’t be going to watch this at 1 in the afternoon, and it’s not going to be getting multiple shows an hour like a big blockbuster, or even the biggest screen for that matter, especially when Bond and Venom are out. The showtimes it has are probably enough to meet demand. It’s getting 15 shows on Friday at Vue Westfield, 17 at Vue Westfield Stratford. That is pretty insane for a horror actually.

That's waaaaay more than similar sized cinemas in Odeon and Cineworld. My local Everyman isn't getting it outright. There's something to be said for it being a victim of the glut of new releases this weekend, maybe should have been held back a week.

I don’t think any week this October would have been any better for it really, delay it a week and it’s going up against Dune, delay it two weeks and it has Halloween weekend mostly to itself, but then it’d die very quickly after the 31st. It does seem to be performing fairly well so far around me though despite the smaller screens. Vue is unexpectedly almost sold out for a couple of showings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think around me at least, if it released next week it would have a bit more of a chance on two counts: The first, it's new competition is Dune, yes, but Dune is heavily focused on IMAX, Dolby and all the other PLF screens, they might have had a better shot at securing 1st or 2nd biggest standard screens The second is that Venom won't be in its Opening Weekend, Last Duel will likely be getting dumped out of a good chunk of cinemas. But, you're probably right, given the state of this October, there really wasn't a good weekend to release this once Venom moved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. James Bond is also extremely popular in Greece. 'Skyfall' was the second biggest Hollywood film of the last decade, behind 'Joker'. However, 'No Time to Die's' opening weekend was only half of 'Spectre'/'Skyfall'. NTtD's run in the UK is mind-boggling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Jane Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 (edited) The most incredible thing is that Bond popularity has already last 60 years worldwide and still popular today Nothing can popular forever,James Bond is popular in EVERY SINGLE COUNTRY in 1960s ,include Asia,Latin and some territories where Bond is not popular today Pirates of Caribbean,Transformer,Harry Potter.......their popularity last over 10 years,and that is impressive,but Bond just doing far more greater than any of them Compare with the same feature,for instance,Mission Impossible series ,can anyone say it will still popular in Asia market in 2050/2060?But Bond will be still popular even 2100. That's just a miracle for the film industry history,and obviously,Bond derseve that Edited October 12, 2021 by Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet Universal aren’t happy though about losing all PLF’s. Halloween Kills had this release date before Venom 2, Dune and Bond. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
