Jonwo Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 What movies do you think the new Star Wars trailer will play in front of? Mockingjay? I know the second teaser for some reason is attached to Bridge of Spies but DAAAARN I want to see the new one in the cinema. I reckon Spectre or Mockingjay.

SchumacherFTW Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I'd be shocked if it isn't with Spectre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 (edited) Westfield have already added so many showtimes in the early hours of the 17th. 11 midnight shows and shows thereafter all the way to the morning. Pre-sales already look way stronger than Spectre (which isn't selling lightly), and that comes out on Monday! Unprecedented. Not that it's a surprise, but BFI have also sold out virtually all shows up until New Years, bar the ones at 3/4/5am etc, and some of them are close to selling out.

Not bothering with the BFI for this, but definitely tempted to go to empire laser for it after a week or too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan9 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 (edited) I've already booked both, just because... I'll probably end up booking Empire Laser a few more times as well, as well as frequent lie-max viewings along the way. Goodbye money.

Heretic Posted October 22, 2015 Author Share Posted October 22, 2015 BFI has sold out the 3:15 and 6:30am shows. Crazy. Don't think I've ever seen a 6am show sell out before, not even at the BFI. And definitely not 2 months out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonwo Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I expect Spectre will be £60-70m total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchumacherFTW Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I've just seen 0720 IMAX screenings on the cineworld website. That truly is unprecedented! Even DH2 didn't show that early in the morning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Just checked my local cineworld listings for Monday. Suddenly, the 8pm/9pm shows for Paranormal Activity and Last Witch Hunter have disappeared. Spectre is about to become the first film to show on every single screen at my local cineworld at the same time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 (edited) Vue Birmingham has 34 shows for SW between midnight and 7am on the 17th. Can't wait to see how big this opens. Edited October 23, 2015 by Heretic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Anyone else noticed that Dad's Army has randomly started booking today? That's absurdly early for a film that might not make £10m! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks okay but i doubt it's a film that going to have high presales. I imagine BvS will be the next big film to have high presales although obviously not on the scale of Star Wars and Spectre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 what is the OW record? any chance ep7 breaks it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan9 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 what is the OW record? any chance ep7 breaks it? Deathly Hallows Part 2 with $38.3M. It's possible but highly unlikely now that SW is opening on a Thursday. Biggest 4-day for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 I've never seen pre-sales anything like this, not even for DH2. If it was opening on Friday, it'd take OW record. But yeah, biggest 4 day is happening for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Pendragon Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 200,000 presales in the first 24h in the UK??? That's fucking huge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
