The Dark Alfred Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Yep, but IM3 didn't open on Friday. I had FF6 at £25m total. Might have even lowballed it, damn it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 (edited) Yep, but IM3 didn't open on Friday. I had FF6 at £25m total. Might have even lowballed it, damn it. IM3 didn't have close to these kind of sellouts that I'm seeing. Not on Friday, or Saturday either. Edited May 17, 2013 by Heretic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Didn't have to. It had gimmick 3D and IMAX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 Taking away previews from Thursday, Iron Man's 3 day was £11.4m. I think FF6 could end up with more admissions, even though the £ value won't reflect that due to 3D premium. Alfred you work at a cinema right?

Jonwo Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 (edited) FF6 will be lower than IM3 due to no 3D or IMAX, I think it could do at least £8m OW last 2D film to do that was Les Mis back in January. Gatsby is trickier to predict but I think £3-4m four day opening. Edited May 17, 2013 by Jonwo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 I think close to £10m for FF6, around £4.5m for Gatsby. It too seems to be doing very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Why can't Trek do that well last week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Why can't Trek do that well last week? Star Trek did increase from the last film but I think the Fast and Furious films are more popular. The last film was well received, I do think the competition from The Hangover part III will affect it somewhat next week. It'll be interesting who is number 1 next week, I think it'll be Epic due to its numerous previews but I could easily see Fast 6 being number 1 or The Hangover if it performs better than expected.

Heretic Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 TH3 likely. TH2 was massive, it opened to £10.4m. TH3 definitely won't do that, but I wouldn't rule out something like £7m, which would probably be enough for number 1. Half term is going to be insanely busy.

I see, thanks for the info. I just thought that with a British actor who's quite popular like Benedict Cumberbatch, it would have done better.

Half term is going to be insanely busy.£7m four days sounds about right, I imagine it won't hit the £30m total of the last film, more like £20m if its lucky. Half term week itself has only The Big Wedding and Byzatium released so it could be number 1 twice in a row.

John Marston Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 so Star Trek is the only May movie that underperformed. Fuck this shit 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCS Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Wow, huge weekend inbound! Surprised STID is not doing that well, perhaps still too 'geeky' and niche a franchise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Wow, huge weekend inbound! Surprised STID is not doing that well, perhaps still too 'geeky' and niche a franchise.I don't think it's doing badly otherwise it wouldn't have opened to £8.4m but clearly expectations were high and compared to IM3 it has underperformed, I still expect a third film as they'd be nuts not to release it during Star Treks 50th Anniversary. FF6 is entertaining but I didn't think it was as strong as the last film, I do expect it to do great business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonwo Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 What's STID's current cume?No numbers but I would guess its at around £11-12m and it'll be at least £15m by Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
