Poseidon Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Opening-wise, of course. But it's still Friday, and the final verdict will be how it does next weekend. Obviously there was little awareness and no rush, now let's see if some WOM gets around. But at this point, 1mil admissions look nearly impossible - WOM has to be exceptional to get it that far. It's not impossible, if it can have decent holds the next 2 weekends it will get a lot of help by easter holidays. Look what Narnia 3 did with the help of christmas.

Rudolf Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 2nd Trend Germany H&G and OZ about 225k admissions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndustriousAngel Posted March 9, 2013 Author Share Posted March 9, 2013 Uh-oh, #1 for Oz seriously in danger. brrr... "Bullet to the Head" is flopping, too - about 50k admissions and legs are usually very short for this kind of film. A positive opening surprise otoh: "Night Train to Lisbon" with about 80k - doing much stronger than I expected. Confirms that 2013 is the year of german (co-)productions!

terrestrial Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I didn't expect H&G WH to be on #1 or #2 ... at its 2nd weekend here... wow I think the whole 1st Quarter of 2013 had more BO-surprises than usually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndustriousAngel Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 Ok, Sunday trends see Oz in front again, everything looks a bit stronger than in first trends: Oz: 260k admissions H&G: 240k Kokowääh2: 130k Save Haven: 125k 3096, DU, DH5 with 95k each fight for #5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndustriousAngel Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) Fun facts: In Austria 2012, The Hobbit 1 was #4, as in Germany, but it was a close race: #4 Hobbit1: 620.719 admissions (actually still playing on some screens, so maybe 1.000 more) #5 Ted : 618.091 admissions Ted's run was really incredible here! 2013 looks poor at present (Jan + Feb data); big contrast to Germany where 2013 started extremely strong. The difference is that the numbers from Germany include an exceptionally strong home market with German (co-)productions accounting for more than 40% of receipts; those films didn't do nearly as much business in Austria.

terrestrial Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 (edited) Thanks Harsh opening numbers for a #1 movie, still surprised about only -33% of H&G WH, mindblowing total admissions for 'Ziemlich beste Freunde' / Intouchables... = brought back?

IndustriousAngel Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 Maybe the distributor (Senator) tries to bring Omar Sy back into talk, later in March they'll release "De l'autre côté du périph" (german title: "Ein Mordsteam") also starring Omar Sy.

terrestrial Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 that is possible, 21. March release date... To add the title's name or our fellow posters here aka On the Other Side of the Tracks aka On the Other Side of the Freeway they might be rather happy about the X-Men: First Class - Days of.... casting news too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndustriousAngel Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 Yep, that's great news for France - in Germany, we'll have to wait for "Mordsteam" and see if a film can profit from Omar Sy; the Cop Buddy Movie is a rather tired genre by now (imho). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndustriousAngel Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 Germany + Austria Top 13 March 7 - 10 TW LW Movie Studio Weekend Change Gross Week 1 N Oz the Great and Powerful Disney $ 4.154.948 - 4.188.591 1 2 1 Hänsel & Gretel PPI/UPI $ 3.837.130 -35,8 11.454.277 2 3 2 Kokowääh 2 WB $ 1.455.799 -40,7 23.362.400 5 4 4 Django Unchained Sony $ 1.266.679 -39,4 53.456.977 8 5 5 3096 Tage Constantin $ 1.195.947 -35,5 3.517.114 2 6 N Safe Haven Senator/Const. $ 1.088.009 - 1.499.198 1 7 3 A Good Day to Die Hard Fox $ 1.053.491 -51,8 15.988.284 4 8 N Night Train to Lisbon Concorde/Filmladen $ 958.281 - 1.013.981 1 9 6 Les Misérables UPI $ 861.451 -41,6 5.527.608 3 10 N Bullet to the Head Constantin $ 575.025 - 642.536 1 11 7 Parental Guidance Fox $ 469.600 -40,3 1.337.760 2 12 8 Fünf Freunde 2 Constantin $ 447.331 -18,7 7.419.959 6 13 9 Warm Bodies Concorde/Const. $ 243.684 -54,6 2.100.549 3 All (semi-)wide openers managed to make it to the Top10, but the results for Oz and BTTH are underwhelming. H&G had a higher PTA than Oz! "Night Train to Lisbon" did extremely good for an arthouse production. DH5 continues its fall. btw, BOM has updated their US$-Euro-exchange rate again so some films dropped in totals despite making money this week. This weekend, we have a lot of openers, some very wide: "Rubinrot" (german bestseller adaption) and "Jack the Giant Slayer" for the family/youth group, "This is 40" for the comedy crowd, "Hitchcock", "Song for Marion", and Ulrich Seidl's final part in his paradise trilogy, "Paradies: Hoffnung", plus some minor releases. It's difficult to see a leader - presales are poor on all sides - but I think Rubinrot, Oz and H&G will have a close battle for #1 while JackTGS went a little under the radar and will make #4 at best. With something in theaters for every demo, business should be decent in any case! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrestrial Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I continue to be dazzeled by the H&G WH numbers.... Beside movie-devoted boards I didn't see either ads nor a specific hint about the German co-production (local support or German production or whatever). Has someone else another impression / experience? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndustriousAngel Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 Intouchables is back in the top 20 Yep - and I think it is a kind of "special" release (school shows maybe) because Intouchables doesn't show up on the according BOM weekend list at all. First I thought this might be an official re-release since Omar Sy's next film is due in two weeks. btw, Intouchables has now more than 426mil US$ according to BOM.

IndustriousAngel Posted March 14, 2013 Author Share Posted March 14, 2013 Opening night for "Jack the Giant Slayer" - somewhere between underwhelming amd piss-poor, even worse than I expected. Ok, it's only Thursday, so maybe it can pick up some speed during the weekend but I don't think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
