juni78ukr Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 ---> Latest figures from film industry analysts NevaFilm shows that at the end of 2010, Russia had 2,436 screens in 868 cinemas. There were 942 digital screens in 530 cinemas, 938 of which were able to project 3D.---->By 31.12.2011 2726 modern screens in 928 theaters. 1472 digital and 1434 3D. 19 IMAX.In one year Russia added 290 screens, 60 theaters and 496 3D screens, it's really impressive, only China perform better.I can't imagine in 2020 :oNo wonder the box office grows so fast.Actually the turning point for this growth might be very close. The ticket prices are already too high. Too many wide releases with enormous screen count are killing each other. Most of the new theaters are in the same big cities. It is not very good for business to build a new theater in cities with 100-300k population. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not very good for business to build a new theater in cities with 100-300k population. It's pretty logic no? I mean Moscow and St Petersburg regions are growing, but many medium/small cities and rural communities are declining demographically.Theaters go where is the population and where the people salaries are the highest. About the turning point I hope you're wrong, I'm very optimistic about this market, and not only for movies. What about the ticket prices?

juni78ukr Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 (edited) Average ticket price in Russia 2004 90 RUB = 3.25 USD 2005 105 RUB = 3.8 USD 2006 120 RUB = 4.6 USD 2007 135.4 RUB = 5.3 USD 2008 166.6 RUB = 6.7 USD 2009 169 RUB = 5.31 USD 2010 194 RUB = 6.3 USD 2011 220 RUB = 7.09 USD Last week with Titanic and Wrath of Titans average ticket price was 242 RUB or 8.35 USD. Generally ticket prices for 3D and IMAX might differ depending on city. Usually they are much higher in Moscow and significantly lower in provincial cities. Could be up to $13-15 for 3D and $20-23 for IMAX. Edited April 12, 2012 by juni78ukr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbuster Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 I guess millions of Russians don't have an access to theaters yet.Russia could surpass France in admissions in 2012, so Russia would become the biggest European market in admissions, and the fourth in the world after India,USA and China, very good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lab276 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 So it's like Japan, with the whole Dec-Nov thing. I wonder why that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 12 more movies with 4mln + admissionsI'm writing box office reports in Russia since 2006 and also I write for some magazines. So I can always answer questions about Russian box office. Feel free to ask.I saw Day Watch is pretty high on that list with 7mio+ admissions, but what about Night Watch? Wasn't that a huge hit in Russia too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And 5 weekends in 2011 instead of 4 in 2010 also helped very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't that a huge hit in Russia too?It was all-time number 1 for some time with $15.9 mln. Using average ticket price it should have around 4.85 mln admissions.
