It's like Wonder Woman's run in the US where it kept going and going, Dunkirk could be the same! In the UK? I thought it was a given.

The Dark Alfred Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 DK sub 20% down from OD. £7m+ weekend. All new openers disappoint. Top 4 all holdovers, order DM3, SMHC, Apes. 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted July 29, 2017 Author Share Posted July 29, 2017 Amazing. I was very wrong about Girls Trip. Strange that it hasn't received a wider release though. A lot of cinemas don't seem to be showing it, but it's doing really well at Vue Westfield and some cinemas near me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Just got out from seeing Captain Underpants, there was about 15 people total. Shame, it was fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect Universal is being cautious since African American films don't do great in this country 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Alfred Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Looking great. Saturday over £3m, £8m+ weekend. IMAX stayed pretty much flat, sold out everywhere tonight. I watched it for the fourth time. Experienced all formats. Digital, 35mm, Digital IMAX, 70mm IMAX. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Alfred Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 I think it can beat Rises to become Nolan's biggest hit in the UK. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aabattery Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Was just looking through the BOM yearly pages for the UK. Had no idea that Paddington won the year for 2014. That's pretty great, I liked that movie. It's not the type of movie you'd think would make that much. Should be interesting to see how the sequel performs.

Heretic Posted July 30, 2017 Author Share Posted July 30, 2017 (edited) Absolutely stunning performance by Dunkirk. As for Paddington, it's very popular in the UK. Given the fantastic reception for the first one, I expect the sequel will open well (around £6-7m), and leg its way over £30m again. It does however open on the same weekend as Justice League, which will likely be aiming for a £10m+ opening, but the two can co-exist.

Senoj Lihp Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Paddington is the week before Justice League. Paddington on the 10th November and Justice League on the 17th isn't it? Also Murder On The Orient Express should do pretty well on the 3rd November.. might have a Gone Girl type run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried an Xplus screen, they just built a new one in Southampton, supposed to be better than Imax (according to my son). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Girls Trip did £1.5m for the five days which is decent while Captain Underpants did £2.4m for the seven days which isn't great. Both numbers are from Ian Sandwell's twitter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted July 30, 2017 Author Share Posted July 30, 2017 £27.2m for Dunkirk in 10 days. Lost for words really. I wonder how high this can go, it should play very well in a pretty empty August. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how high this can go, it should play very well in a pretty empty August. £55-60m is my prediction, the August competition is not great although I could see The Hitman's Bodyguard being a surprise hit. The last weekend of August is overstuffed with 4 new releases which isn't too surprising given that's Bank Holiday weekend but you'd think one or two would back a week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
