Heretic Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 I'm saying an £8.5m ($13.6m) opening for Les Mis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 I could understand weekend previews but Friday and Saturday previews are unusual, I imagine it'll attract an audience but have no legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Kick Ass did the same release pattern in 2010, and it certainly worked for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCS Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I'm saying an £8.5m ($13.6m) opening for Les Mis.I am lowballing my prediction with a £7M OW.Kick Ass did the same release pattern in 2010, and it certainly worked for them.Really?It is very strange doing previews on a Friday and Saturday then pulling the film out of cinemas until the next Wednesday.But yes, Kick-Ass did well if it did the same odd release pattern.

JCS Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Strong mid-week performance for #Quartet, second highest grossing film of yesterday behind The Hobbit.I wonder if this can follow last January's Best Exotic Marigold Hotel to £20M+ too.

Heretic Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 Pre-sales for Friday night for Les Mis are looking C-R-A-Z-Y. It's going to have a massive OD, and probably a bigger Saturday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchumacherFTW Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Last I checked Les Mis had sold out 7 and 8 on Friday and 7 on Saturday at my local Cineworld. Methinks I may need to book the show i'm going to on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCS Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 UK box-office was an inflation-busting 4% up in 2012, with £1.172bn. Skyfall earned 8.6% of the totalNice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Wonder if the Oscar and BAFTA nomination will boost any of the upcoming and already released films, think Lincoln will probably do very well out of it and Life of Pi and Les Mis too.

Heretic Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 Leicester Square 19:45 showing tomorrow for Les Mis sold out completely. 0 seats left. That's crazy!I think this could do £2.5m+ OD for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 £2m OD seems about right, I think £7-8m OW is looking likely, whats the record for highest OW in January? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
