Very bad news for NWH also very bad news for Bond. Bond will barly pass Spectre whilst under normal non lockdown covid circomstances it would have cleared €23m with ease. Belgium?

Everything still fine, don't think we will get worse restrictions so boxoffice should go normal, expecting a very big OW. The problem is even though Belgium is quite a bit smaller than the netherlands, also Belgium is more frontloaded whilst the Netherlands have great legs.

So now cinema in Netherlands has to close before 5PM everyday? How much it will affect the gross? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinema's closing after 5op will lead / has led to grossing at 20-30% of normal grosses So basicly a reduction of 70-80% from normal. Maybe holidays + weekends could retain a bit higher than that 20-30% because more people will go early / can go in the afternoon but still very bad.

charlie Jatinder Posted December 18, 2021 Author Share Posted December 18, 2021 Since we are in holidays now (I guess) weekdays will compensate the early close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not the same. This is to slowdown during christmas/holidays to avoid big get togethers. Makes sense as they have almost 15K cases today. It will wreck havoc on the hospitals with other stuff exacerbating as well. Entire Europe looks bad at this time and population also skews old.

charlie Jatinder Posted December 19, 2021 Author Share Posted December 19, 2021 TBH closing them completely is idiocy. Can atleats let 1/3rd seats to be sold. Heck even 50% cinemas are very empty as most people are in groups so they sit closer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
