fabiopazzo2 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 SUNDAY UPDATE, Refresh for latest…: Growing hotter and hotter throughout the weekend, Disney’s Frozen 2 scored an enchanting $350.2Mglobal debut — the biggest day-and-date worldwide animated launch ever. Of the total, $223.2M is from 37 markets at the international box office where Anna and Elsa also set a new benchmark for the highest offshore animated opening of all time, crushing previous title-holder, Ice Age: Dawn Of The Dinosaurs. The Jennifer Lee/Chris Buck-directed sequel landed No. 1 bows in each of its opening markets and saw significant weekend play with key Asia markets overindexing. Notably, part of the reason estimates were coming in lower through the first days were unexpected bumps from Saturday to Sunday in those hubs. China leads all markets with $53M for the 3rd best animated debut ever and the top start for a Disney Animation/Pixar film (overtaking Zootopia and Coco). Korea is next at $31.5M for the 3rd highest industry opening weekend ever (behind only Avengers: Endgame and Along With The Gods 2). Japan, which was the major market on the original film, opened with $18.2M to secure the best start for a Disney Animation/Pixar movie ever (same in Spain, Germany and more). Elsewhere, animated opening records were set in France, the UK, Poland, Indonesia and Malaysia among others. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 #Frozen2 grossed an estimated ₱310,520,500 or $6.1M in the Philippines on its opening weekend (first 5 days of release). It is the 4th biggest opening weekend in the Philippines of all time behind Avengers 3, 4, and Captain Marvel. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunny Max Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 In IMAX, F2 iced the the all-time biggest opening for an animated title, earning $18M globally and toppling Incredibles 2’s $15.6M debut. Internationally, the film delivered $9.7M making it the biggest IMAX opening for an animated film overseas... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I mean it’s clearly great debuts. But it’s only possible by combination of goodwill for the franchise plus crazy expansion recently. You couldn’t see an OW vs F1 total ratio like that in a developed market no matter how much they showed up this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Amazing numbers all around. i did not think it will grow so much in Asia. Europe was expected and LA is always animation friendly. Any comparisons to TLK. I know F2 is crushing it in Japan and Korea(DUH) but how about europe/asia/la. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but not that fast. It will make $12m+ in the end, which is more than 4x the first movie. Also, animated films since Frozen in Indonesia: Minions (2015) - $8.8m Incredibles 2 (2019) - $8m TS4 (2019) - $6.2m Big Hero 6 (2014) - $6m Despicable Me 3 (2017) - $6m As you can see, despite the growing market, the animated film record has not been broken for 4 years! Should've added this: TS4 (2019) - $6.2m vs TS3 (2010) - $2.4m DM 3 (2017) - $6m vs DM 2 (2013) - $6m vs DM (2010) - $1.6m KFP 3 (2016) - $5.3 vs KFP 2 (2011) - $5.6m vs KFP (2008) - $3.2m HTTYD 3 (2019) - $4.6 vs HTTYD 2 (2014) - $3.7m vs HTTYD (2010) - $1.56m WIR 2 (2018) - $4.6 vs WIR (2012) - $1m Only WIR 2 made more than 4x its predecessor.

fabiopazzo2 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 More details from Deadline Disney’s animated sequel blew past projections to capture a $350.2M record global start this weekend. That includes $223.2M from overseas (also an all-time animated record) where all reasonable analysis on Saturday was pointing to a $180M+ bow. Anticipation was clearly through the roof — the original Frozen opened to $67M in like-for-like markets and at today’s rates so this is a 233% bigger launch. That speaks to the brand that captured hearts last time around and built and built to become the highest-grossing animated movie ever worldwide at $1.27B. One source opined to us recently that the franchise isn’t limited to girls since the guys will also turn out to meet up with their classmates. And parents are of course along for the ride. Frozen 2 opened No. 1 in all of its 37 material markets, setting a bunch of records. Those include the 3rd highest industry opening ever in Korea; the highest opening weekend ever for an animated title in France, the UK (3-day), Belgium, Bosnia/Herzegovina, Croatia, Czech Republic, Iceland (3-day), Poland, Serbia, Slovenia, UAE, Ukraine, Indonesia and Malaysia; the 3rd best opening weekend ever for an animated title in China; and the highest opening weekend ever for a Disney Animation/Pixar movie in Japan, China, Spain, Germany, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam and Slovakia. This was also the highest ever opening weekend for a Disney Animation title in Mexico, Central America, Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, India and Hong Kong. China leads all play at $53M. A start above $50M in China is particularly notable for an animated Hollywood title, and came in above industry estimates (even if some saw pre-sales as an indication of possibly topping the half-century mark). Korea and Japan also blew past expectations while the Asia social scores were solid. (Maoyan actually dropped from a 9.1 on Friday to a 9 on Sunday, but that clearly didn’t impact business.) The ticketing platform is currently predicting a $104M Middle Kingdom final, though the site often fluctuates. Rounding out the Top 10 behind China are Korea ($31.5M), Japan ($18.2M), UK ($17.2M), Germany ($14.9M), France ($13.4M), Mexico ($9.3M), Indonesia ($6.2M), Philippines ($6.1M) and Spain ($5.8M). Key markets not opening this weekend include Italy, Russia, Australia and Brazil. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamiem Posted November 24, 2019 Author Share Posted November 24, 2019 Copied from the NZ thread. Looking really good but not quite great hopefully big jumps the next few days. Albany Event Cinemas -Frozen II opening day (Thur 28/11/2019)3 days before release 10:00am 16/216 11:00am 17/216 12:25pm 14/216 1:25pm 9/216 2:50pm 23/216 3:50pm 64/216 5:15pm 65/216 6:00pm GC 29/30 6:15pm 91/216 7:40pm 34/216 8:00pm GC 20/40 8:40pm 16/216 Total 398/2230 (17.85%) Big jump but still a ways off TLK (although it has beaten its percentage sold), really needs more screenings added, hopefully in the next couple of days. Right now most of the preferred seats have been sold from the 3-8pm sessions. Compared to 3 days/12 hours before release of other films. TLK at the same point sold 926/5338 (17.34%) which would be a $2.2mopening weekend Hobbs and Shaw at the same point sold 139/1456 (9.54%) which would be a $4.58m opening weekend Joker at the same point sold 160/1536 (10.41%) which would be a $3.16mopening weekend 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
