Heretic Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 When I saw Ice Age yesterday, there was a whole load of Italian students a few rows in front of me. Throughout the entire film, a few of them kept getting up and running out of the auditorium, and then coming back in, switching their phones on and talking. So fucking irritating.Film was great though. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Best since the first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 (edited) They ruined my first shows of GI Joe and OOTP. I'm going to catch a show of Ice Age on my day off before TDKR probably, have to see it for The Simpsons and Peter Dinklage.

I liked it though.It was funny, there was a guy in-front of me who started looking round in confusion when it came on. He even asked the person next to him whether this was the showing for Ice Age or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 It's not like a Pixar film then, where the short is advertised in the listings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 (edited) So far today, Ice Age 4 is looking strongest. Maybe even stronger than yesterday. Both the 10:30am and 13:00 shows sold out at my cinema and it looks the afternoon shows will follow suit. Spider-man is doing okay, IMAX is quite full, but I think the Wimbledon final will effect it more than Ice Age today, and families seem to be flocking to Ice Age rather than this.

Heretic Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 It should but right now Ice Age is looking at least on par with yesterday. Evening business will be lower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 Excellent opening for Spiderman compared to most other markets.Fantastic for Ice Age! Up from last weekends previews. It's total opening could be near $18m, like Spiderman's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 So this shitty weather definitely helped Ice Age this weekend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 Probably.I find these numbers very impressive. Today, they had to deal with Wimbledon (accoring the the daily mail, 20 million viewers were expected to tune in), and the F1, which also must've had massive ratings.Ice Age could make another £5m or so next weekend, which would put the full opening at $19.3m!

JCS Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Wow, great weekend at UK cinemas!TASM with a huge opening compared to the other markets and Ice Age 4 dominating with previews, going to be huge opening next weekend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) Spider-Man did very well, should hold up next week although Ice Age due to the previews should be number 1, do think it should have gotten release fully on the 29th June although I understand why Fox held it back in England and Wales. I think £25-30m total is likely but it's only got two weeks to itself until the Lorax and that has previews on the 21st and 22nd which could dent IA then Brave is released mid August.I wonder what Ice Age's actual OW will be once previews are taken away? I imagine it'll be around £3-3.5m. Edited July 9, 2012 by Jonwo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
