UK Box Office Thread

Looks like it's doing really well, it looks way busier than BvS around my area, it should have a good hold this weekend, but the weekdays is where it's getting a big boost. Weather is really nice this weekend though, at least in London and the South, the first proper spring warmth, so that might affect business a bit. Streets and outdoor places are heaving.

There is still one more week of holidays, BvS will be at £30m by Tuesday or Wednesday. £40m might be tricky since it'll be at £33-35m by next Sunday assuming it has a 50% drop next weekend. The Huntsman likely will make a dent as well.

 

Zootropolis is already higher than KFP3 with £12.6m, with another good drop and strong weekdays, it'll be over £20m, The Jungle Book might dent it but I think the two can co-exist.

The Jungle Book is gonna be huge here. There's a lot of hype, it wouldn't surprise me to see it open to £7-8m, and top £30m, especially with the reviews it's receiving.

£7-8m might be tricky, i think £5-6m is doable though even though the last film to crack that was Maleficent and that had previews and half term, I think it's a shame they couldn't release it earlier to take benefit of holidays.

It'll end up around two thirds of Deadpool here.  

 

No, it's making way more than that. Two thirds of Deadpool would be £25.3m, and it's at £24.6m already!

 

EDIT: Sorry, I thought you meant UK!

WARNER BROS

Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice retained its lead at the UK box office despite a hefty week-on-week drop.

Warner Bros’ superhero brawl fought to a further $6.6m (£4.66m) for $39.5m (£27.83m) after ten days in play. That’s a drop of almost 70% on its record-breaking opening, despite only one other major release this weekend.

For comparison, Man Of Steel fell 56% in its second weekend, Avengers: Age Of Ultron fell 52% and Avengersfell 49%. Batman v Superman will hope to arrest the slump as otherwise it could struggle to match this year’s biggest superhero film to date Deadpool, currently at $53.4m (£37.62m).

One thing in Batman v Superman’s favour is that there’s still another week of school holidays, meaning midweek numbers should be solid. It will hope to have passed Man Of Steel’s $42.6m (£30m) result by the end of this week.

DISNEY

Zootropolis fell a slim 24% (excluding previews) in its second weekend as it dropped to third.

Disney’s animation hopped to a further $3.8m (£2.7m) to stand at $17.9m (£12.6m), after adding more than $6.4m (£4.5m) from its first Mon-Thurs. It’s already surpassedKung Fu Panda 3 in the battle of the Easter family offerings.

BvS should be at around £34m by the end of the holidays this weekend, could finish within £1m (+-) of Deadpool. £40m is not completely gone, I'd give it a 30% chance.

 

Nice weekdays for Zootropolis, should be around £18m by the end of the holidays on its way to £25m. Needs around £28m for $40m. With the Jungle Book arriving soon, it may be difficult, but it's not impossible.
