SchumacherFTW Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Anyone else think some stuff needs to move out of February? First weekend we've got Dad's Army and Goosebumps, that I can live with. But week 2 has Deadpool, Zoolander, Pride Prejudice and Zombies, Point Break and the Chipmunks all going wide. Surely something there has to move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely something there has to move. Point break will be DOA. WoM should have reached UK by then.... The only 2 competitors I see are Zoolander and Deadpool. I guess it just depends on who is in the mood for action and who for comedy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted December 31, 2015 Author Share Posted December 31, 2015 The first two months of the year are looking rather quiet compared to some recent years. I don't think we'll see a big film until KFP3 and BvS in March. The latter should have a huge opening with Good Froday on OD and Easter Monday to follow. After that, it has 2 weeks of holidays. If it's good, it has £50m potential. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Minion Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Deadline After 13 days of release in the UK, Star Wars: The Force Awakens has grossed £83.5M ($123.8M). This is the biggest offshore territory for the film thus far where it has now capsized Titanic as the 4th highest-grossing movie in local industry history. It is also the fastest film to ever make it to £80M, beating the previous record held by Skyfall which took 23 days to get there. JJ Abrams’ continuation of the epic saga has now become Disney’s biggest title ever in the territory. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely something there has to move. There's also Concussion as well, Deadpool's difficult to predict because I think if it's 18 rated, it might not do huge business although given how successful Kick Ass and Kingsman were, perhaps there is an appetite for 15 to 18 rated action films. Batman v Superman will be big, Man of Steel did £11m OW so I think £14-15m is achievable. Any wildcards for 2016, I think The BFG could do very well and I could see Suicide Squad opening big as well.

Heretic Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 Very quiet this mornif, even for SW. Understandable, seeing as most people are probably sleeping or hungover... Business will pick up later, but can't see it going much above £4m. Increase tomorrow may be strong. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan9 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) @ian_sandwell 3h3 hours ago Star Wars: The Force Awakens ended 2015 with around £87.6m in the UK. Could well overtake Skyfall by end of this weekend. So NYE was around £4.1m, incredible number really considering most people are normally drunk by 7pm.

Heretic Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) That is a fantastic number. Today should be similar, between £4-4.5m. Edited January 1, 2016 by Heretic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mepal1 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Well i live in the UK and i decided to finally go and see the film on the 1st Jan, and went to an evening performance, and was very surprised to see that apart from me there was only one other person watching SWTFA. Never have i been to see a film at a cinema, to see a film viewed by so few, and a film that is currently a massive hit. Two conclusions, either nearly everyone who wanted to see the film in the UK, has already done so, or maybe word got out i was going to the cinema. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it's pulling in £4m on New Years Eve, 2 weeks into its run (Most films don't even have an OD of that), it's definitely not done. Has a long way to go still.

Jonwo Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I think Star Wars will start declining a bit more with the big January films coming up but I expect it'll still be in the top 5 for another month or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there's the release of Dirty Grandpa and Ride Along 2 at the end of January. PPZ and Goosebumps are surefire bombs Grimsby will kill off everything's legs. That 4 week period between end of Jan and end of Feb is just bonkers. 8 comedies competing with each other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm unsure about Dad's Army, it'll do decently but the trailer doesn't inspire much confidence that it'll be good. There's also How to be Single which is a romcom which is released February 19th but has previews on Valentine's Day so even more comedy competition.
