The Dark Alfred Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 We have more bookings for Monday than we had for Sunday and Sunday was the strongest day of the weekend due to the weather, so it's looking like a mighty week for Prometheus. It faces zero competition till Spidey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I think Prometheus, MIB and SW will have a strong week, the only thing I can doing good in June is Rock of Ages but I can't see it doing more than £2-3m for its five day opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 Its at approx $us78m so yes and considering mon/tues this week holidaysReally?That would mean it's in the £50.5-51m range.It was at £46.9m last weekend. Unless it somehow doubled on last weekend or something, how is that possible? Would be incredible if true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 Prometheus is rammed today. Much busier than yesterday here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 10m 5-day is happening. It should be over 2m on Wednesday, too. £13m first week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless it somehow doubled on last weekend or something, how is that possible? Would be incredible if true.Don't convert the total current gross at today's exchange rate. A percentage of the gross would have been converted at the higher exchange rate of a month ago. I believe that's the US dollar figure Rth is giving.

SchumacherFTW Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I was impressed with my Avengers audience earlier, around 75/80 people at the 12pm 2D show. Shame there's only two shows a day atm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 (edited) Yeah, I'm surprised. It has 5 shows at mine today, but so far, the shows have been full. If the total is indeed $78m, it could get close to $85m in the end. Edited June 4, 2012 by Heretic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted June 5, 2012 Author Share Posted June 5, 2012 The wettest April for over a century proved to be anything but a washout for the entertainment industry, new figures have revealed. Britons flooded cinemas and theatres in record numbers to escape the gloomy weather, according to a study of the spending habits of half a million credit card users. Over the month, Britons spent 155 per cent more oncinema and theatre trips this year compared to April 2011. John Brady, head of commercial at John Lewis's partnership card said: "It seems that when it's wet, cinemas and theatres do a booming trade. The poor April weather this year was certainly great news for arts and culture." April's box office takings were also boosted by the UK release of superhero ensemble flick Avengers Assemble, which stars Robert Downey Jr, Scarlett Johansson and a CGI version of The Incredible Hulk. The blockbuster is the third-biggest grossing film of all-time, having just passed the global takings of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2.

RthDeadWov Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Interesting thing whilst 3 day weekend Prometheus is about double #2 MIB3, for Mon/tues holiday its about 40-45% ahead of MIB3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLK Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Interesting thing whilst 3 day weekend Prometheus is about double #2 MIB3, for Mon/tues holiday its about 40-45% ahead of MIB3I think that sounds right. Prometheus should play more like a sequel because of the more upfront demand while MIB3 is playing like an original movie rather than a sequel. I know its weird but it makes sense.

Dementeleus Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Or that PROM skews older and therefore will have weaker weekdays (fewer adults catching evening screenings), but stronger weekends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Interesting that MIB3 is ahead of Snow White, the weather really impacted its OW but it seems to have picked up due to the Holidays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted June 6, 2012 Author Share Posted June 6, 2012 Family films always do better during holidays.MIB has really rebounded. By Sunday it could be over $20m easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 It's good that MIB3's rebounded, it didn't deserve the god awful opening weekend it had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
