Do movies in UK open on Thursday or Friday? For IW for example on Box office mojo it says it opened on Thursday but If you click on it it shows a 3 day opening 

Depends on the movie. Friday is the norm, but they'll open pretty much anything on any day of the week now.

Yeah Friday is the 'official' opening day but most films get a day or two of 'previews'. Oceans 8 is going to open on a Monday.

 

Pretty decent for Avengers considering the weather.

 

We've done well at my cinema on Sherlock Gnomes as well (again considering the weather). I Feel Pretty has been quiet

That's odd actually, because I Feel Pretty has done pretty well at my theatre, whereas Gnomes is slacking behind. I just assumed all the kids were out enjoying the sunshine during the day, then too late for them to go in the evening.

why is our taste so bad lads?

I don't know what you mean? 

 

I thought I Feel Pretty was quite a solid comedy. Haven't seen Gnomes yet because it looks like a cringe-fest

I meant in general, it's actually much better than America's though so I'm not going to complain.

Don't know about other places but my local cinema is looking pretty dead today. There's about 20 people in the 1pm showing of IW. Don't know who would want to go to the cinema on a day like this though..

Ocean’s 8 opening on a Monday is interesting considering WB rarely opens does week long previews, I’m guessing taking advantage of the fact they’re pretty much the only big film during the World Cup apart from Jurassic World

IW should be past the £60 mark ($81m) after this weekend. 

 

 

Wow in terms of local currency it's a massive hit.

 

Final gross 67-70?

Does the UK box office report admission figures at all?

I think only report of  monthly admissions for whole market but no for single movies
