Heretic Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 It's only afternoon but I don't expect a very big opening. Just moderate. It's all about the legs for this type of film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCS Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) Check back in around 6-7 hours and we should have some LoP OD numbers but won't be huge, but over £1M probably. Edited December 20, 2012 by JCS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 £1m would be very good for Pi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 I think it might be below £1m, but over the 4 days I can't see it missing £2.5m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCS Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Seems a long way to £15M+ with a £2.5M OW... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
htall90 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Life of PI should have good legs it is fairly popular and well known book in the UK. I'm going to see it tomorrow accompany by half dozen fans of the book I also known a fair number of people who like the book so should be big in the UK. The great reviews should help with WOM to.

Heretic Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 It's definitely possible if it gets great WOM, which it probably will.There are many films like this over Christmas that get multipliers over 5-6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fake Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Hope it is above 1m..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) If it is above £1m, that'd probably put it on track for over £4m easily as it'd likely increase on Friday and again on Saturday, with a very small drop on Sunday.

Jonwo Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 £4m would be great but I think £3m is more likely. Think this weekend will be busy with Hobbit week 2 and Pi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Hobbit down 30% for £1.3-1.4m, Pi is looking at a bit less than £0.6m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 Expected number for The Hobbit.Although that's a fairly low number for Pi, it should translate into a very solid 4 day opening.0.60.81.10.9£3.4m ($5.5m). A 5x multiplier would get it to £17m ($27.7m), which would be excellent for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Pretty much in line with my predictions, (£3.2m), but I don't expect such a great multiplier, I would settle for £15m. Note: it did £0.1m with previews, so its weeeknd tally will be a tad better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted December 21, 2012 Author Share Posted December 21, 2012 The Hobbit pre-sales are really weird this weekend. Saturday pre-sales are stronger than Friday, Sunday stronger than Saturday, and Christmas eve is stronger than all of them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 (edited) Pi did okay, the number is good for a Thursday.I am surprise people go to the cinema on Christmas Eve but I guess it'll be mostly daytime as they'll be hardly any evening business.
