Rthmessiah Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 (edited) 51 minutes ago, Heretic said: So it hit £10m! The fact BFI was number 2 in the world with only 5 showings a day is remarkable. Dunkirk should be nearing £20m already by Sunday, maybe even exceed the mark. Inception made over £4m in the first Monday-Thursday with an opening weekend of £5.9m, so I can't see Dunkirk falling below £5m weekdays. Can see £40m+ being a possibility, will be an exciting run to follow. Yeah there was an amended figure, corrections to some theatres and missing data Edited July 25, 2017 by Rth Homecoming 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCS Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Great opening, could do £40M+ for dunkirk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeCee Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 (edited) Just sent this message to my parents for their last day in London. "You should buy tickets now. Sessions are getting sold out in advance. These are the best options in order. It was filmed in IMAX. 1.BFI IMAX 2.London Science Museum IMAX 3.Odean Leicester Square 70mm 4.Cineworld Leicester Square IMAX" Spoiler alert. They actually visited the D-Day beaches at Normandy on Sunday. Edited July 25, 2017 by DeeCee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCS Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Quote Admissions update Admissions numbers, which lag behind box office in the reporting calendar, are now in for June, and they show a disappointing 10% fewer tickets sold than in June 2016. However, because 2017 started so strongly for cinema, the first six months of 2017 are 6.4% up on the same period in 2016 for admissions. So far, box office for July has been well up on July 2016, and the month should also show an admissions rise from a year ago when those numbers are finally audited.

The Dark Alfred Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Strong weekdays. Tue was £2.2m. Might hit £25m by the end of the week. WoM is insane. It has IMAX the whole of August. £40m will happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if Dunkirk's ends up being WB's highest grossing film in the UK for 2017 although it does depend on how Justice League does in November.

Heretic Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 Wow, very strong weekdays. So around £7m Mon-Thu, and say £6-7m 2nd weekend for £23-24m by Sunday. £50m will happen if it keeps on performing like this. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senoj Lihp Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 We've been sold out all week. Looking very strong again this weekend. Hope it pulls off a ridiculous sub 20% drop or something 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 Girl's Trip has also opened this week (Wednesday) and is doing well from the looks of it. Literally the definition of perfect counter-programming. With its strong reception, I wouldn't be surprised to see a £3m opening followed by good legs.

Girls trip ain't going that high, the release is fucking pathetic. Only cinema near me showing it has 16 screens, and not a single screening in Cambridge at all.

Dunkirk has no real competition this weekend so it's going to have a small drop. Even next weekend, it'll likely do more than Valerian and The Emoji Movie. Atomic Blonde might knock it off the top spot in two weeks but it's 50/50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 First week tally is £19m. Even a 2.5 multiplier from here takes it near to £50m. I think we mustn't be afraid to dream a little higher. I'm thinking £55-57m atm. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like Wonder Woman's run in the US where it kept going and going, Dunkirk could be the same! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
