The Dark Alfred Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 No, Joy is boring. It's getting mixed WoM, falling way behind of Danish Girl on dailies and that film isn't having great WoM either. Tue nice increases all around, SW £0.68m, H8 £0.39m 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) Anyone think Creed could top The Revenant this weekend? Starting to think it might. At a lot of my locals its getting the biggest screen, and buzz around my age range is big. Both could top £3m, which means we'll likely have 3 movies grossing over that mark this weekend. It'll be close. Edited January 13, 2016 by Heretic 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit funny how they point that out in the US, seemingly missing he won already some OS awards I'd call nice too, even if partly 'Life-time' awards 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I have a feeling The Revenant will edge out Creed but both will incredibly well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrestrial Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Notably this week, China has bumped Australia out of the Top 5 offshore markets for TFA. The Middle Kingdom, with $65.7M, currently sits at No. 5. The UK is still tops with $162.5M, followed by Germany ($95.5M), France ($77.1M) and Japan ($69.4M). (Local PROC reporting by Ent Group has TFA at about $71.5M with Wednesday grosses included, which would lift it past Japan, but those are unconfirmed numbers.)... http://deadline.com/2016/01/the-force-awakens-tuesday-results-passes-avengers-age-of-ultron-china-international-box-office-1201682015/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting find! So France is now the same, but UK is higher there. France Disney 12/16/15 $21,378,320 27.7% $77,100,000 1/12/16 Hmm, might depend on if someone uses the exchange rate of the day for the complete run or adds up per day??? Maybe asking Heretic might bring clarification? United Kingdom Disney 12/17/15 $50,686,789 30.9% $164,032,994 1/10/16 @Heretic can you check / compare the above in the posts mentioned numbers? The post from today got defined as results of including 12 January. Edited January 13, 2016 by terrestrial 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) That's way higher than the $158m that was reported on Monday. Even including Monday and Tuesday, it wouldn't be at $164m with todays exchange rate. I don't really know how exchange rates work when converting, rth can provide more insight, but I think the exchange rate is averaged over a period of some weeks or a month, the pound to dollar gross conversion doesn't change at the same rate the actual currencies are changing.

Dan9 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Exchange rate did fall again around the end of the weekend. It was meant to be around $158m on Sunday, and after Tuesday the USD gross was exactly the same according to the live data. So it's as if Monday and Tuesday didn't count at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOM uses the current exchange rate, which is why you may see a decrease in the total gross from one week to the next in certain cases (extremely unprofessional on their part). I don't know how studio's work out the dollar gross, but I would assume they divide each day's gross by the daily ER, unless they have other agreements with the cinema chains.

Yes, i find this very confusing and annoying, in that BO sites take the current exchange rate and apply it to the whole run of the film. I noticed that from mid December onwards the BO take for Spectre in the UK, has in dollar terms been pretty static, or going down in some cases, even though the films domestic gross has been continually going up. I think that BO sites , at the minimum should calculate the gross on a week to week basis, for what the exchange rate is at that time, then over time the dollar gross would be more accurate. Is there anyone here in the film business, who can explain how the studios deal with this? Edited January 14, 2016 by mepal1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've explained how works many times, but doing quick search can't find previous posts and haven't time atm to explain it, but top level studios have intercompany rates set monthly and do adjustments when necessary 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Revenant is looking quite frankly stupid tonight. Should beat Legend's 3 day easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 Yeah, it's looking very strong tonight. However, it's showtimes are quite limited, wouldn't surprise me if it stays flat next weekend. In light of the golden globes and oscar nominations, it's going to have a very prosperous run.
