BO Germany/Austria: Dune first 2024 blockbuster (3mil admissions)

[Fake]

In 2007, Enchanted Got 2.85x multiplier from this weekend and The Golden Compass got 2.74x.Similar multipliers will give an additional 2.25-2.40 admissions to TH1. Around 6.8-6.9 million finish.

7m is possible.7M admissions mean bigger amount of dollars than ROTK?

Difficult to say. As I observed, at first 2D was offered mostly in the afternoon and on small screens. At my theater the 2D shows by now have the 3rd biggest screen and 8pm and so, although 3D HFR is still the bestseller on the biggest screen, the 2D share rises and rises. My ladyfriend wanted to watch it once more an I consider the 2D option too now that it's on a sensible screen and ausio system

Saturday trend - looks even better than the Friday one - really outstanding weekend:H1: 1.325kLoP: 525kPP: 275kVampS.: 200kJLM: 170kSF: 150kSammy2: 125kBD2: 125kWiR: 105kThe number for H1 is so high it might even manage a 4th weekend with >1mil admissions - improbable but possible.

Great!

[Elessar]

So, new 3rd weekend record or not?

[IndustriousAngel]

We'll have to wait for actuals

[Elessar]

No record.

[IndustriousAngel]

Yep, "The Hobbit 1" managed only the 5th biggest 3rd weekend ever in Germany (1st place: HP1 with 120k more). Still excellent numbers after the lukewarm opening. Very good opening week for "Life of Pi". "Jesus liebt mich" with +44% had the biggest increase among adult fare. And "Skyfall" and BD2 stay in the Top10. All things considered, two nearly perfect holiday weeks for theaters, and one more holiday weekend to go B)edit: And "Cloud Atlas" finally managed 1mil admissions on 23rd and is now on its way to hopefully 1.2mil admissions total. They can use every cent! Go watch Cloud Atlas!

btw, in Austria, The Hobbit didn't see similar numbers, it dropped from 114k admissions (opening WE) to 81k and now 71k in WE #3, total about 450k until Sunday.

how much is that in USD

[IndustriousAngel]

If the 3D share stays the same, I'd say about 5,4mil US$ from Austria atm (last Sunday) and 48milUS$ from Germany. Should cross 70mil in Germany, maybe hit 75 or even 80 (I still believe in 7mil admissions), and 7 to 8mil from Austria with shorter legs here.

[IndustriousAngel]

btw update from german-speaking Switzerland; TH1 now at 268k admissions total, Skyfall 878k , BD2 230k.

[John Marston]

so Hobbit will finish with a good total considering the opening weekend?

According last Sunday report in Hobbit OS thread, Germany was already at 60 million $:

Great result. :D

is it wrong? Edited January 3, 2013 by peludo

hmm didn't look it up but should be correct; I guess cheap weekdays were suspended during the holidays, so much higher ticket price! So we're looking to a 90ish finish from Germany atm, and about 10mil from Austria.

It's impressive

[IndustriousAngel]

We'll have to wait for Jan drops, and from now on cheaper weekdays are back and 2D share is rising (at least at my theater) but 90mil would be the goal if it was at 60 by Sunday. With holiday ticket prices that would be about 6,75mil admissions - I'm still hoping for 7 which would lock 90mil even with cheaper tickets.
