Fullbuster

Russia Box Office

Recommended Posts

Saturday at the moment 

Die Hard 5 +108%

The Impossible +128%

Chinese Zodiac +208%

Beautiful Creatures +116%

Les Miserables +124%.

 

I would say around 6.6 mln opening for Die Hard5. A bit disappointing after good first day.

 

$6.6m? Indeed it's lower than expected, but not too much, still fine.

On Russian such movies called cranberry. Have no idea why. It means a bad quality movie filled with silly stereotypes and mistakes about russians and Russia. Or a film with intentionally bad attitude toward russia or russians usually combined with same stereotypes and mistakes. 

Most of the time they are laughable and even might be amusing. Still sometimes cranberry movie can easily become offensive.  

 

Projections for this weekend (might be a bit off)

Die Hard 5 6.4-6.5m

Beautiful Creatures 2.27m

The Impossible 0.83m

Les Miserables 0.82m 

Chinese Zodiac 0.71m

Warm Bodies 0.5m

Safe Haven 0.46m

Parker 0.46

Django Unchained 0.44m

Texas Chanisaw 0.43m

The Master 107k

 

Cant say much about Gladiators of Rome. Most likely 50%+ drop.

 

What is the total for Parker and Chinese Zodiac?

What is the total for Parker and Chinese Zodiac?

 

Nearly 9m and 7.37m

 

Next week Russian disaster drama Metro opens on 1300 screens. Also Dark Skies (1000 screens), Zero Dark Thirty (500 screens), Last Stand (750 screens), Snitch  (650 screens) and Hitchcock (520 screens).

 

Saturday, February 23, is a national holiday. Even without holiday Monday  it will give a little boost.

die hard 5 is a cranberry movie? Is this a main reason that die hard 5 didn't reach the expectation?

Russian office of Fox International tried to correct some errors and mistakes but apparently they didnt care. Right now everyone is bashing the movie. Even most of the action fans do not like it. 

 

And just to tell how popular this franchise here. All four previous Die Hard movies yesterday were on prime TV channel. And the ratings were sky high. In Moscow share was between 20-25%.

 

Updated estimates

 

1. Die Hard 5 $6.62m

2. Beautiful Creatures $2.26m

3. The Impossible $0.85m

4. Les Miserables $0.8m - 2.62m total

5. Chinese Zodiac $0.73m - 9.02m total 

6. Safe Haven $0.56m

Can't read Russian , but I think it's a chart for last weekend's BO. Hope Kinometro can provide daily BO data soon

 

They have english titles below russians. Daily grosses? Not likely, at least in free service.

 

On Tuesday Die Hard 5 dropped by 7%. Almost everything else increased. The Impossible by 6%, Les Miserables by 22%.

I thought this imply a heavy drop for die hard on second weekend, such a bad news. How about gladiator of Rome, does its midweek BO excess Chinese zodiac?

Gladiators or Rome released here through our small independent distributors Luxor. They usually buy and release european films with moderate box office potential. Sometimes they release 2nd rated animated films from Europe or Asia like this one 

 

Gladiators of Rome is already the 3rd highest grossing among their releases. Only Upside Down and german Animals United  grossed more. Midweek grosses for children films are very low here during the school year. Last week it grossed only 180-190k monday-wednesday.
