wildphantom Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Beauty will definitely top £10 million second weekend. The thing plays like absolute gangbusters. Nothing will come close to it until Jedi arrives in December. Decent for Get Out, considering the behemoth it opened next to. That word of mouth from the states and those reviews clearly translated.

Purple Minion Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 First time I see Vue Dublin in that list, usually it's Cineworld. Must have been packed for St. Patrick's weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, nothing's getting close to BATB's OW numbers for months. I think we'll have a fair number of £10-15m openers though. 4 hours ago, Rth and the Beast said: Top playdates 18-Mar all BATB 1-CW Sheffield (beat OLS by a whisker) 2-Odeon Leicester Square (Over 2.5 times CWLS both combined huge) 3-Odeon Trafford 4-CW crawley 5-Odeon Metrocentre 6-Vue Dublin 7-Vue Westfield london 8-NAC Showcase Bluwater 9-Odeon Liverpool 1 10-CW Glasgow 11-CW Milton Keynes 12-CW Basoldon 13-CW Didsbury 14-Odeon Milton Keynes 15-Odeon Norwich Interesting Vue Westfield was only seventh, surprised no BFI IMAX in the top 15. OLS always seems to beat Cineworld LS despite the IMAX screen being superior but I guess they have double the capacity in the main screen.

Heretic Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 Wow, Vue Westfield is almost always top 3. Business much more spread out than usual, only 2 of the top 15 in London. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Kinda funny how both Milton Keynes cinemas make it in to the top 15, I didn't realise the place had so many people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 Quote Admissions update Admissions figures – number of tickets sold – are now in for February, and they show a healthy 7.3% rise on February 2016, buoyed by hits such as The Lego Batman Movie, Fifty Shades Darker and Sing. February’s admissions tally of 16.48m is the highest for the calendar month since 2011, which was boosted by the likes of Tangled, Gnomeo & Juliet and The King’s Speech. For January and February together, admissions are 7.1% up on the first two months of 2016, with January this year bringing hits such as La La Land, Lion and Split to the party. It will be another four weeks before March’s admissions numbers are tallied but, based on box reports so far, the month looks set to be nicely up on March 2016. A year ago, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Zootropolis provided a strong finish to March in its final week, but the collective might of Beauty and the Beast, Logan and Skull Island should be enough to push March 2017 convincingly ahead. UK box-office is looking very healthy for the first few months of 2017. July could be pretty big this year with Despicable Me 3, Spiderman, Cars 3, War for the Planet of the Apes and Dunkirk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

June will be up admissions wise due to no football and a stronger slate of films with Wonder Woman, The Mummy and Transformers. August will be down though as it's a pretty barren month, September will be as well unless Kingsman 2 massively increases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 (edited) Lots of sellouts this evening due to 2 for 1 tickets, almost looks as busy as opening day. Weekday business will be massive. Really interested to see what kind of hold it pulls off this weekend. Edited March 21, 2017 by Heretic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 (edited) So BatB has added around £4m ($5m) Monday and Tuesday, seems to be heading for around £8m ($10m) weekdays. Amazing for a family film with no holidays. Edited March 22, 2017 by Heretic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to be near £40m by the end of the weekend which is insane. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan9 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 My showing this evening was rammed, only a few single seats in the very front row remaining. Seemed like a great reception as I was walking out too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDarkKnightOfSteel Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 (edited) WoM is insane.In The days right after the release of the film,the main subject of the discussion around the unuversity changed from whatever my peers are obsessing these days to BaTB and they all loved it.What's more suprising is that not only people over 20 years old were raving about it,but many were also men. This can help because maybe men will be a lot more willing to see it if they hear good word from unexpected sources like...the dudes.

Power Ranger is difficult. But I can't see more than £3m for that. Life looks good, but doubt it'll do that well. Probably around £1.5m. Chips >£1m. BatB will likely do double all openers combined.

Are my BatB's numbers a bit low for that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
