The box office from South Africa,Nigeria,East,West Africa

I think we can still count Egypt

No problem with the thread but just so you know a thread for South African box office already exist - 

 

 

You can continue using this thread for the other countries but it would be better to have any discussions about South African numbers in its own thread.

what do admission numbers relative to population look like in the poorer african countries?

 

For example in the usa a population of 330 million around 75 million saw tfa, so like 22%

 

in my not-as-rich country endgame is #1 or #2 not sure, but the ratio of admits to population is 12%

 

Is that ratio much much lower in the poorer african countries?

Yeah much much lower in all Africa country.

Not only because of poor,People in Africa don't like going to cinema to watch the movie,they more like use video and watch movie on TV.

There are only about 1650 screens (not theaters) in Africa, with about half in South Africa.  Most of the continent doesn't have the density of people with disposable income to make theaters a viable business outside of major cities.

The USA is a movie nation - they do go quite regularly.

 

But yes it does correlate, probably because countries with poor infrastructure (which most of the time are poor) also have few cinemas so few people have the chance to go to a cinema.

 

Lets take Nigeria:

Endgame has 323k (officially counted) admissions

Black Panther around 500-550k

And the country has 217m people (2018 it were around 195m)

Meaning their #1 movie has been seen by around 0.28% of the population in cinema.

The action movie, the long-awaited follow-up to 1986’s Top Gun, broke records on that opening weekend in May and has continued to hold steady at the box office every week. The film opened in South Africa on Friday 27 May and was still in UIP’s (Universal International Pictures) Top 8 last weekend 24-26 June. It’s earned over R45-million at the SA box office (a phenomenal R45,684,841 to be exact) and is still showing around the country

African can be a big market but that's not today. Almost whole of Africa box office is basically South Africa and Egypt.

Africa need to solve the private problem.

Most Africa can use internet and smart phone right now,but going to cinema is still not the main entertainment there,they more like staying at home watch Instagram or tiktok
