They’re also showing the Lord of the Rings trilogy in IMAX this week too! Only the theatrical editions though unfortunately, but it’s still tempting.

I prefer the theatrical versions, so it's better for me 👍

They’re definitely easier on the arse, I don’t know if I could handle 4 hours in an IMAX seat!

Yeah me too. I remember only having the extended editions and it made a marathon too hard. 

[Krissykins]

Next weekend could be just as boring. Many Saints of Newark is getting 3 showings. Cineworld isn’t even showing The Green Knight.

 

There’s an Oasis concert, Ballad of Billy McCrae (?) and the LOTR films. The calm before the Bond storm.

Got tickets for this, thank you very much for the early heads up.

How normal is UK BO at this time? Any capacity limits? Can Bond maximize its potential? Spectre had crazy OW.

Capacity limits seem to have been removed pretty much because of this film’s imminent release, Cineworld lifted capacity limits when they put NTTD on sale. I doubt it hits it’s pre-pandemic potential because I’m sure there’s still wary people out there who might not feel safe in a cinema still, but it’s still going to be a monster and easily win the year in the UK.

 

Also, don’t forget that Spectre’s “opening weekend” was a ludicrous 7 days, so while it was still impressive, it’s not exactly an opening “weekend”.

I'd say 3-Day target should be Quantum of Solace's £15m OW. If it can hit £20m for the 4-Day that's a huge win and should set up a long tail in the winter.

My goal is to have at least one run from Vue before release. We will see if I run into any unexpected pitfalls.

Are you going to track one chain or multiple ones.

I believe Odeon he said has Captcha issue. Other one is Cineworld. All 3 accounts for almost same business.

 

Cineworld - 23%
Odeon - 22%
Vue - 20%
Showcase - 6%

[Krissykins]

We still have social distancing in Scotland, just one seat now though. 
 

Many Saints of Newark was #2 yesterday.
