Jonwo Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Fantastic Beasts will cross £20m by next week, it has been a disappointment for WB and the WW franchise overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any examples? The most famous example is Spectre back in 2015. The opening weekend was touted as a record £40m, but counted all takings from 7pm on Monday through to the end of Sunday. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Family films often have “previews” where they play from morning to night all day for a full Saturday and Sunday and then the studio reports them in with its weekend opening when it opens properly. 34 minutes ago, SupermanLego said: Was TB similar ? The Batman was a normal 3 day, opened on Friday 4th of March without any previews or early screenings here in the UK. It had genuine midnights (00.01).

Actually, there were some 7pm IMAX shows on the Thursday night, but that's about it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 The main thing that we can agree on is that for a market of our size, box office reporting in this country is a fucking joke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissykins Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 From Friday onwards: Unbearable Weight, Operation Mincemeat and The Bad Guys are gone at my local. 4 showtimes each for new openers Father Stu and Firestarter. Doctor Strange 2 is actually gaining a showtime. The Little Mix concert could do quite well on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strangely, I’m actually seeing it there tomorrow night! My other nearest is showing it from Friday, but only 3 times a day. Seems to be relatively limited. I havent seen a shred of advertising to be honest, not even on social media. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like they're really missing a trick with this movie. Hopefully word of mouth carries it like it has in the US 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilmFincher Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Yeah there's no Everything, Everywhere screenings at my local Odeon this weekend. Glad I caught the IMAX showing last week, this film was such a joy, shame to see it's not getting a proper release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnokesLegs Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Everything Everywhere All At Once is selling very well at my local, the 7:30 showing on Friday that I’m going to is down to the front row on a mid size screen, wouldn’t be surprised if they ditched a Fantastic Beasts to open another screen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My unlimited screening was packed last night, glad they put it on the biggest screen too (even though this cinema aren’t bothering to show it again). The film was…. Everything. Haven’t had an audience laugh out loud as much since maybe Bridesmaids. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie Jatinder Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 £4,847,458 opening day for DSitMoM. MON £1.5M ish was quite decent, will likely have 8 days £24.75-25M. 2nd weekend I guess can be around £6M. May be £41-43M full run. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchumacherFTW Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Everywhere I look that has Everything Everywhere, shows are getting solidly busy, Firestarter on the other hand is constantly dead. Going to be a lot of cinema's regretting booking that this weekend methinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
