Heretic Posted July 20, 2017 Author Share Posted July 20, 2017 Will be interesting to see which location is on top this weekend for Dunkirk. I think there's only two real contenders here. BFI and OLS. BFI IMAX is pretty much sold out all weekend so that's the obvious frontronner. Odeon Leicester Square sales are looking quite strong too, and it has a much larger capacity than BFI so it definitely has the potential. Combining OLS and Cineworld Leicester Square IMAX (which is only 100 yards away) however would almost certainly result in the highest revenue. I can't see any of the other big ones (Westfield London/Stratford, Glasgow, Sheffield, Crawley etc) competing. However, I expect mostly cinemas with IMAX /eXtreme formats will fill the top 10. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itll be BFI IMAX for number 1, I imagine OLS/CWLS will have very strong business. I think Sheffield should do quite well it's a Laser IMAX and Vue Manchester Printsworks as it is the only cinema outside of London to show it in 15/70mm IMAX I wonder if The Science Museum will be counted even though it's not a cinema, it's showing Dunkirk on its IMAX screen and sales seem strong 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Light Cambridge might make an appearance, they're packed all weekend for the opening of their new IMAX. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted July 21, 2017 Author Share Posted July 21, 2017 Pre-sales are looking very strong for Dunkirk, can't see it falling below £5m now. I'm going to say third highest opening for Nolan (after TDKR and TDK) with £6.2m. Same number as Gravity. Really interested to know how this will rank in IMAX openings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted July 21, 2017 Author Share Posted July 21, 2017 This is acting like a blockbuster tonight. Lots of full shows. I expect OD will be above £2m for sure. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 It is expected to be huge and WoM will be great. Old crowd loved it which means it's gonna have decent weekdays, plus lot of young males showed up, too. Will hit £25m with ease I think. As of Friday, yes it's looking to be well above £2m. DM3 is having a great hold to claim second. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted July 22, 2017 Author Share Posted July 22, 2017 Weather is quite bad this weekend too which will only boost Dunkirk. Family films are looking very strong today, especially DM3 which I've seen quite a few sellouts for. Wouldn't surprise me if it stayed nearly flat or increased. Probably will become the 2nd biggest film of the year after BatB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it should have a good drop this weekend due to weather, and schools have broken up now which will help. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Dunkirk looking packed at every west end cinema I've been past today. Only week link seems to be Picturehouse Central, probably as they "only" have 4K 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted July 22, 2017 Author Share Posted July 22, 2017 Yeah Dunkirk is packed today, definitely going over £3m. Wouldn't surprise me if it's nearer £4m. If it somehow manages to open to £10m, that'd be incredible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
