SchumacherFTW Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 When I was leaving the cinema earlier, Legend had sold out in one of the larger screens at that cinema, Everest had about 70 seats booked for a screening 25 mins later.

Jonwo Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Fri Legend £1.05, Maze £0.55, Visit £0.28, Everest ok pta, expected more really. Legend already at £2.5m already, guess it has a shot at £5m for the five day opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted September 13, 2015 Author Share Posted September 13, 2015 Ian Sandwell @ian_sandwell 1h 1 hour ago Legend lands top of the UK box office with tremendous estimated £5m bow, including £1.5m in previews. Great start, didn't see that coming at all. Good for The Maze Runner too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrestrial Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 What's the OW of MR and Insurgent? That Ian Guy out of the tweets works for screendaily = IMHO one the most accurate sources for international numbers. I post them as they come, but sometimes I miss one, especially if it's a title I do not recognise. He also tweets a lot of sports numbers, reviews, festivals.... but still better than to work through the many details Screendaily reports (they do have a 'you have already read...' tthingy to block readers of too much articles) Maybe waiting for their official est. article if he is too slow with his tweets?

SchumacherFTW Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 That Ricki and the Flash number makes me wonder why the hell it was kept at my local for another weekend. I get that were full of old fogies, but surely virtually anything would have made more money there? Even nothing at all would have been more profitable!
