SchumacherFTW Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Kingsman was doing well for me earlier, about 60/70% capacity for the 2pm show. Crowd really dug it. Vaughn's quirkier films really seem to give great crowd experiences (Kick-ass is still the most fun I've ever had in a cinema). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan9 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Big Hero 6 was almost full at my showing today which was amazing considering it was a 6:30pm screening and the evenings are always usually way quieter. Thanks for preview screenings it was my third time seeing it and I love it more each time, really hope it takes off over half term. Tempted to see it again tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 Saw Big Hero 6 at 7pm. Was about half full, loved it. Made me choke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Big Hero 6 has the advantage of being the only 3D film out at the moment as Shaun the Sheep isn't in 3D so it should have a successful run, the next 3D films will be Home in about a month and a half then Spongebob.

Heretic Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 (edited) Fifty Shades pre-sales are insane. Wonder what it's OD will be. I reckon could top £3m, probably £4m on Valentines day. OW could be near £10m, which surely would be biggest for 18 rated film. Edited February 1, 2015 by Heretic 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll probably be similar to the Twilight films which were very frontloaded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olive Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Ian Sandwell @ian_sandwell 18m18 minutes ago Big Hero 6 lands with chart-topping (according to Disney) UK debut of around £4.5m, including previews from one-off day last month. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 Expected over £5m, but that's a good opening, considering it only had one day of previews compares to two for most animated films nowadays. Half term in 2 weeks will give it a big boost. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wezzo Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Box Office Mojo report Kingsman landing only $100k behind BH6 here, so £4.3m-4.4m sounds possible. Which is a great result, and actually makes Kingsman #1 for Fri-Sun only. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alisson23 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 In the UK, the Fox title opened just behind Big Hero 6 with $6.7M from 950 locations. Great for Kingsman! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olive Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Disney’s latest animation lands with $6.45m (£4.295m), including previews; Fox’s adaptation bows just behind with $6.37m (£4.24m), including previews, and posts Matthew Vaughn’s best-ever Fri-Sun tally in process. http://www.screendaily.com/news/big-hero-6-edges-out-kingsman-in-uk/5082552.article?blocktitle=LATEST-FILM-NEWS-HEADLINES&contentID=42422 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan9 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 So BH6 was still the #1 Fri-Sun. Any guesses on how Jupiter Asending will fare? Can't imagine it'll be great considering not even Guardians was a runaway success like it was the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessie Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Should pass £20m. What the fuck, ive not even heard of this film Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
