charlie Jatinder Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 @johnfalkon the sale on Ekino seems really big, but are they evenly spread as normal or very heavily skewed to say IMAX screens or other PLFs in big screens. I am asking because in that case, it may be very pre-sales loaded, though Russia seems like is pretty much walk-in country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think this fundamentally does not change anything, the start will be huge anyway. https://www.kinometro.ru/analytics/show/name/forecast_releases_16092021 At the same time, there is a very strong attention of the audience to buying tickets for premium formats, with moderate activity of viewers in relation to conventional viewing forms. This is usually the case for projects with a very strong fan base. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be $8M weekend including CIS unless it is very frontloaded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie Jatinder Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 (edited) @johnfalkon Zootopia was pretty much WoM hit everywhere but in Russia pre-sales are huge ₽100M+. Why? Also saw TFA pre-sales were ₽100M plus as well but OW was just ₽765M in Russia. May be Dune face something of similar sorts. And Suicide Squad beat opening day record with just ₽35M pre-sales. It's like pre-sales don't even matter in Russia. Edited September 15, 2021 by charlie Jatinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like pre-sales don't even matter in Russia. The habit of pre-sales has appeared relatively recently, maybe certain patterns have not yet developed. So, in theory, there can be surprises with a plus sign and a minus sign. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
