Krissykins Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 On 5/15/2023 at 8:12 PM, Krissykins said: Spoke to Cineworld earlier and there are no evening PLF’s for Little Mermaid currently because Fast X is keeping most of them. Whew, that’s a bad move. 4DX, 3D and 2D IMAX are only during the day and very late night. The 7pm & 8pm showings are staying with Fast X. They did say they’ll see what the opening weekend for Fast X is like and they can change their mind, they’ll know before the 22nd. They’ve updated and taken the 13.10 IMAX off Little Mermaid and given it back to Fast X this weekend too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 (edited) UK reviews for LM not great. Don't expect that too effect its box office much early on. Anyone else watching SISU? Looks awesome. Edited May 25, 2023 by The Dark Alfred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 What is the OW expectations for Mermaid. 5m or 10m range? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably nearer £5m tbh, but it is another bank holiday weekend so all schools are off on Monday. However, another sunny weekend forecast so might impact BO.

Krissykins Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Cruella £1.5m at #3 (pandemic) Maleficent £3.8m Cinderella £3.8m Jungle Book £9.9m Beauty and the Beast £19.7m Maleficent 2 £3.3m Aladdin £5.7m The Lion King £16.7m I’ll guess a £4.5m 3 day for Little Mermaid. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 I expect closer to ALADDIN numbers. A bit higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 24 minutes ago, The Dark Alfred said: I expect closer to ALADDIN numbers. A bit higher. Aladdin had a five day opening IIRC so it won't be a like for like comparison. I think with it being the first family film in a while and female skewing will help it. The Flash release date being moved up has meant that all the printed posters which are already up are incorrect, I assume WB will pay to have them replaced.

Apparently it’s going to be the hottest weekend of the year so far, so expect it to be deflated a bit. I’d say under Aladdin. Anecdotally, around me it’s looking very quiet on the Saturday. IMAX is a ghost town, I don’t know why they even bothered. Edited May 26, 2023 by SnokesLegs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happened with Mario and it’s happening again here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a big price jump for IMAX here, for a family it's more than the equivalent of an extra ticket which is pretty crazy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted May 27, 2023 Author Share Posted May 27, 2023 So looks like maybe £5.5m opening, with bank holiday Monday should top £7m and it’s school holidays this upcoming week so should have good weekdays. Weather is looking very good for the foreseeable though so will impact BO for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
