Heretic Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 That's a big drop. Strange. Business looked almost identical to yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernie86 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Crazy, so 55 Mio $ at the end of the week? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) $55-60m is where it's heading. Pre-sales for Friday are looking very strong, so I don't think the notion of burning off demand leading to a weaker weekend will be the case for Spectre.

pepsa Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) With worstexchangerates compaired to 2012 this is unbelievably huge.

Heretic Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) Like Skyfall, Spectre faces absolutely no competition until The Hunger Games, so even with weaker WOM, it should continue do huge business over the next few weeks. Even Quantum of Solace didn't drop >50% until its 6th weekend, and that films WOM was comparatively much worse.

The Dark Alfred Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I expect slightly better legs than QoS, people still gonna watch Bond after Skyfall, just the repeat viewing will be zero and it won't have a long run like Skyfall did in December.

fmpro Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Is it really that bad??? Reviews here are thru the roof and i know atleast 10 people who went to an early premiere yesterday who all liked it more than Skyfall. More fun and better action was the word Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quigley Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) So Wed's gross virtually identical to Tue's? That's sick. $60M 6.5-day opening possible. Edited October 29, 2015 by quigquag33 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 More records! Quote Spectre has followed up the biggest Tuesday ever at the UK box office by achieving the biggest Wednesday ever. Sony’s latest James Bond mission took an estimated $8.8m (£5.7m) on Wednesday to lift its early running tally to an excellent $24.5m (£16m). It is all the more impressive when you consider thatSpectre only had two full days of screenings, with just evening screenings on Monday [Oct 26]. If the film continues this trajectory through to Sunday,Spectre could well be looking at an opening seven days of more than $60m (£40m), which would top Skyfall’s seven-day result of $57.15m (£37.33m) as the biggest ever. Record-breaker Spectre is guaranteed to go down in the records book as the biggest opening ever in the UK. But whether it can match Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2’s Fri-Sun tally of $36.4m (£23.75m), achieved on its release in July 2011, remains to be seen. Skyfall’s Fri-Sun total of $30.9m (£20.18m) in October 2012 may be a more achievable target. The performance over Mon-Weds means Spectre has already surpassed the openings of Casino Royale($20.5m/£13.37m) and Quantum of Solace ($23.5m/£15.38m), although neither film opened as widely as Spectre’s 647 sites. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernie86 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 (edited) @ firedeep Is 150-200 Mio $ in China realistic? My early prediction was: 260M DOM, 1,25B WW Edited October 30, 2015 by Bernie86 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peludo Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 58 minutes ago, firedeep said: So 1B is locked With current exchange rates, Skyfall would not had done 1 billion today. Unless it explodes in China, and considering that Spectre is not likely to match Skyfall in both UK and US (I think it can lose $50m in each market), I do not see the billion. IMHO, about $900m would be the target. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
