UK Box Office Thread

Is boxing day usually a huge cinema-going day in the UK? Not really sure what numbers are like over Christmas, so don't know what to expect from SW. After a quick look at advanced sales though, they are looking very strong, maybe even more so for Sunday the 27th.

 

Assuming today was around £5.5m for a total of £51.4m, I'd expect something like:

 

24th: £4.6m

26th: £6m

27th £6.2m

28th: £4.2m

29th: £4.4m

30th: £4.1m

31st: £3m

1st: £4m

2nd: £4.5m

3rd: £4m

 

£96.4m ($143m), nearly the top grossing film of all time, after the 3rd weekend.

NYD tends to be bigger than Boxing Day, this year's Boxing Day releases are really underwhelming, NYD is a bit better with Joy and The Danish Girl. 

 

Star Wars will drop the most on Christmas Eve and NYE but that's to be expected. 

 

It'll be number 1 for at least three more weeks. The Hateful Eight will likely be its first big competition followed by Creed and The Revenant a week later. Given how huge The Wolf of Wall Street was, I wouldn't be surprised if The Revenant grosses over £3-4m.

To put into perspective, the same is expected of DOM run (720-730 after 3rd weekend, very close to Avatar). Astonishing :o

Why ? They're not really similar movies. The only common factor is Leo in both.

That's incredible for Christmas Eve! Dropped between just 10-15% then! So around £56.5m ($84m) Thu-Thu. 

 

Will be be close to the $100m after Sunday. Unbelievable numbers, the equivalent of around $600m in the US after the second weekend. 

 

Merry Christmas all!
