SchumacherFTW Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 It should be close. I'm really looking forward to something most weeks leading up to the new year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted October 8, 2012 Author Share Posted October 8, 2012 (edited) 1 Taken 2 (20th Century Fox) £7,378,048 £7,378,0482 Looper (eOne) £1,519,503 £5,412,1023 Sinister (Momentum) £1,435,722 £1,435,7224 The Perks Of Being A Wallflower (eOne) £827,983 £827,9835 ParaNorman (Universal) £797,754 £5,263,9936 The Campaign (Warner Bros) £389,287 £1,675,1597 Brave (Walt Disney) £304,735 £21,570,3498 Resident Evil: Retribution (Sony) £286,350 £1,519,8519 Untouchable (Entertainment) £245,343 £964,30810 Hope Springs (Momentum) £190,860 £3,563,199Huge opening for Taken 2.That's decent for Perks I guess. It didn't really have that many showtimes, but hopefully WOM means it has very strong holds over the coming weeks.Again, Brave with a tiny drop. But that'll be it's last. It's had a great run though, compared to most other countries, and should end with $35m.Small drop for Untouchables. Don't think it's going to expand much further now.

JCS Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Good weekend. From here on, the UK box-office will be interesting again and we will see some huge grosses. Can't wait!Perhaps Autumn/Winter 2012 will be more exciting than Summer 2012... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RthDeadWov Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 everytime I see JCS I think Jesus Christ Superstar :)Monday Taken2 looks like being around 670k, #2 Sinister about 190k, & Looper 180k 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Untouchable had a good drop, it should hit £1m soon which for a foreign film is very good, it was never going to hit the heights of other countries. Brave and Paranorman have had good runs but both will be hit by Hotel Transylvania, Madagascar 3 and Frankenweenie which will sastify the kid audience.2012 has been good considering that 2011 was an extraordinary year with lots of successes especially on the British film front and there wasn't competition from the Olympics and Euro 2012 which hurt June and August and a weak September saved only by Looper. This month, November and December should be strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCS Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Top site was Vue Westfield in London's Shepherds Bush, with a nifty £99,000 over the four days, followed by Vue Westfield Stratford in east London, then Cineworld Sheffield, Cineworld Glasgow and Vue Dublin.Wow, I knew Vue Westfield is the #1 grossing UK cinema but just under £100,000 from one cinema just for one film (Taken 2) is incredible!

Jonwo Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 I know the Vues at Westfield do well but not this well, kind of surprised the Odeon in Leceister Square isn't in the top five. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted October 9, 2012 Author Share Posted October 9, 2012 I know the Vues at Westfield do well but not this well, kind of surprised the Odeon in Leceister Square isn't in the top five.Probably because it only has a few shows a day there. And it didn't sell out the 1700 seater like bigger films do.Skyfall will definitely sell out there all weekend. The Friday night show is already almost fully booked. Pretty incredible. I imagine it'll be the top cinema in the country, or at least top 3 for it on OW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted October 9, 2012 Author Share Posted October 9, 2012 I expect Skyfall to do around £16m.I'm not quite sure about The Hobbit. Obviously, it'll open huge (£13m+ likely), but it's focus will be more on the legs over the Christmas and new year period. ROTK opened to £15m 5 day. Probably equals £20m adjusted for inflation, and more with 3D, so you never know I guess...The Hobbit could shock us all and open in the high teens.

I'm not expecting ROTK numbers as that was the final film in the trilogy but it should crack £10-12m with ease, it doesn't have much competition apart from Life of Pi and Jack Reacher so it should have legs.

Jonwo Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Cineworld do very well with Sheffield, Glasgow and Dublin as the busiest in the top five. The Vue in Westfield Stratford has done well considering they've only been open a few months and I guess at lower prices compared to Odeon Leceister Square, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RthDeadWov Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 the other thing with Leicester Square is capacity screen1 is about 1863 seats, most multiplexes even on multiple screens have hard time getting that level and OLS quite often sells out but they also don't offer flexibility in sessions .
