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

[Aristis]

BvS and Zoo are still fighting for the 1st place (265k - 260k) BvS has a cume of about 1.13M admissions while Zoo has 2.87M now. (Far above my 2.75M prediction)

KFP still at 100k.

 

Ticketprice seems to be about 9,3$ now so $35M would require 3,75M admissions. Still doable.

KFP might reach a million total ... what a decline!

[Aristis]

BvS is guaranteed to reach the 6th place. Will probably not reach 5th. Could end with 1.6M to 1.7M admissions ($20M to $22M)

Nice list ... had no idea "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" had that many admissions, but I guess few people here knew this was a comic book. And if you look at DC and Marvel adaptions combined, it seems that 3mil total is a kind of ceiling for SH movies; only Batman on the DC side and Spiderman on Marvel's were ever able to break that barrier (except for the original Superman which was a bit of a media phenomenon in its days, but Supie got grounded fast with part 2)

I wouldn't have known that movies like Constantine or RED are Comics, too.

 

The jump from Batman Begins tho The Dark Knight is great!

[IndustriousAngel]

Constantine and LoEG are even really good comics, better than most SH stuff anyway imho - sad thing LoEG was such a lousy movie; Constantin was not perfect but there were some very nice moments in there, i still find it very watchable.

The best opener on #6, and bad drops … lousy weekend except family stuff. Zootopia is now the #1 2016 release, in front of Revenant and Deadpool. B&T3 went up from last weekend and might end up with a total of >2mil, fantastic!

 

Next weekend: Romcom "How to be Single" enters a dry market, as the only real date movie it should have a very nice weekend, #1 is possible. The other big opener is "The Huntsman: Winter's War"; the first Huntsman did ok with 1,6mil admissions total (about what BvS is headed for) but I don't feel any buzz - anything north of 200k admissions would surprise me but one can always hope.

[IndustriousAngel]

btw, Austria`s numbers for the 1st quarter are in and while we're 5% down from 2015, the quarter was still stronger than 2011 through 2014. That's a nice start for 2016, and while the Euro2016 in France will severely hit admissions in June/July, the blockbuster lineup (espacially Disney's) looks so tight that we might be able to come near 2015's numbers again.

[Aristis]

With 8.965.321 admissions and €101.819.720 SW7 is the most successfull SW-movie now.

Why "now"? How much is the second biggest?

Phantom Menace is listed with 8.962.516 admissions

[fastclock]

So, while Zoo has #1 attendance, The Revenant still has #1 money.

Btw, the actual list above, does it include Austria?

[George Parr]

No, Austria and Germany are counted seperately. Austria has been very adamant about being considered a seperate entity since a certain historic event

 

While the USA and Canada combine their numbers for the domestic charts, there never really was any interest in combining Germany's and Austria's numbers. Occasionally the "German speaking areas" of Germany, Austria and the German-speaking part of Switzerland got mentioned in one group, but I think that was mostly done in music, and was mostly used as a cultural connection and not for any accounting.

 

I guess the two countries share a thread because it's easier to handle this way. Not to mention that they share the market for German-speaking movies. Switzerland is a bit different, because that country is split into two (well, or three or four) different parts with a vastly different taste and culture due to the German/French split. Which makes it easier to handle it seperately.

So why do we never get any data on Austria? If no one has any data, then maybe we should just call it Germany instead of Germany/Austria.

[IndustriousAngel]

Problem with Austria's data is that Rentrak doesn't publish them on time ... when they're finally availabe they're old news.

Here's the link:

http://www.filminstitut.at/de/top-15-wochenende/

as you can see, the weekend there is the one before the one we just had ... so I'll mention if some movie does especially well in Austria (as was the case with "Rush") and usually I'll post monthly resp. quarterly overviews as here but otherwise, you can, as a rule, take 10 - 15% of Germany's admissions and you have Austria's.

[IndustriousAngel]

First weekend trend:

#1: Zootopia - 200k (-25%, crosses 3mil)

#2: HtbS - 220k incl. previews (I had hoped for more)

#3: BvS - 125k (-55%, )

#4: Huntsman - 120k (whew, the first one had nearly 400k)

No Kstew, no smash.

 

Happy its flopping.

hehe, I doubt anyone could have saved that ... the first one had some interesting ideas but never really dug into them, so it was a largely forgettable and pointless piece of eye-candy. Definitely not the movie to warrant a sequel.

[IndustriousAngel]

Saturday update: HtbS much stronger, should be nr. 1 for the weekend - everything else more or less unchanged

[Aristis]

Zootopia is now above 3M admissions as the first movie of the year.
