fmpro Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 pretty slow day at my cinema today. arthur christmas is still number 1, marginally ahead of puss in boots. happy feet is very poor and the previews of chipmunks (although we could only fit one show in at 12pm) was even worse.Damn phillip..You were right..Nice call Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Have to admit, Tuesday was the first time I heard of any Alvin previews, maybe many fams are waiting for next weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilipJ2001 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 thanks fmpro i did warn you guys!according to the hollywood reporter it did just under £2m. i'd expect arthur christmas to only be marginally behind.alvin previews were absolutely awful at my cinema. i'll try and get some figures for that tomorrow because they won't be in the list lukey posts i don't think.

Fake Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Very 'soft' opening for PIB. I hope Albin fails so that Puss is able to hold up well and end up with a decent gross. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I hope this isn't an omen for Sherlock Holmes A Game of Shadows although I think that'll open very well and with nothing opening the week after apart from the IMAX screenings of Mission Impossible, it should have decent legs. I think IIRC Sherlock did £3.08m two days but did £3.5m the weekend after so I think it'll do £4-5m OW next week and Alvin £2-3m including previews.

lab276 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Why is Alvin so low? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Alvin was just previews, it doesn't open until next week but it doesn't bode well but it'll have holiday legs. AC should definetly benefit from Christmas week, like ACC it just done great business even against the likes of HF2 and Hugo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 Could easily see AC beat Tintin now. It's had a fantastic run. PIB should have great legs over Christmas and New Year, but that's one of the most shockingly low openings this year. As for Sherlock, I expect at least £4m. Something has to do well over Christmas. Alvin should do over £3.5m with previews easily seeing as number 2 did £5.3m. But you never know after this weekend... Don't know how holdovers will fare with last-minute xmas shopping...
