Heretic Posted June 14, 2015 Author Share Posted June 14, 2015 Hmmm. Possible. It'll probably be very close, but 3 day Spectre will easily beat Jurassic World's £16.7m. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted June 14, 2015 Author Share Posted June 14, 2015 (edited) Of course. Should top AoU. $80m is quite likely. Edited June 14, 2015 by Heretic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 Universal’s sequel posts biggest opening of the year, sixth biggest of all time at the UK box office and distributor’s biggest of all time. Further distributor results to come… UNIVERSAL Pummelling its competition into near-extinction, Jurassic World dominated the UK box office on its opening weekend. Universal’s sequel roared to an astonishing non-final $29.9m (£19.26m), including $3.9m (£2.51m) in previews, with 38% coming from 3D and 9% from IMAX. That marks the biggest opening of the year to date, topping Avengers: Age of Ultron’s $28m (£18.02m) which included $5.6m (£3.6m) in previews. For Universal, Jurassic World achieved its biggest ever opening after also recording the distributor’s biggest ever Saturday and Sunday results. It also meant that Universal has become the first distributor to open three films over £10m in a calendar year at the UK box office. Overall, Jurassic World recorded the sixth biggest opening of all time at the UK box office, ahead of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets’ $29.3m (£18.9m) which included a hefty $13.4m (£8.6m) in previews, but behind Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince’s $30.7m (£19.8m) with $12.2m (£7.9m) previews. Based solely on Fri-Sun takings, Jurassic World’s $26m (£16.75m) ranks as the fourth biggest of all time, behind Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 ($36.9m/£23.75m), Skyfall ($31.3m/£20.18m) and Deathly Hallows Part 1 ($28.5m/£18.32m). Jurassic World has already outgrossed the entire $28.4m (£18.3m) run of Jurassic Park III and will shortly overtake The Lost World: Jurassic Park’s $40.1m (£25.8m) result. Jurassic World’s target will be Jurassic Park’s $74.4m (£47.9m) haul, or $75.8m (£48.8m) if you include its re-releases. Should it manage to do so, it will also become the year’s biggest film in the process, a record currently belonging to Avengers: Age of Ultron with $74.6m (£48.07m) to date. Also for Universal, Pitch Perfect 2 added $635,000 (£409,000) for $26.1m (£16.79m) after five weeks in play. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 AoU made £5.7m in its first Mon-Thu. JW should do a little higher I think, plus a lot of university and A-level students are finishing exams now. Say £6.5m for weekdays. Giving it a 55% drop this weekend, it'll do between £8.5-9m, resulting in a total of around £35m ($55m) by Sunday. I don't see it missing £50m. If AoU falls short, it'll be the first £50m grosser since The Hobbit in 2012 to hit the mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonwo Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Batman v Superman opens on Good Friday so I imagine it'll at least beat The Dark Knight Rises £14.3m considering this has 3D as well. Star Wars is harder to predict but I think it'll match JW's three day opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 SW and Spectre will battle it out for 2015 crown. Spectre will probably top £20m opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spectre will likely match or beat Skyfall's OW but I imagine it won't have the same legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solaris Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 This is that rarest of things - a film that not only has all of my colleagues talking, but that has them talking about box office. This never happens! I'm thinking £50m will happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
