brazil Brazil Box Office Thread

Box office 28 - 31 december + 01/01 january

	Movie	Box Office (R$)	Change (%)	Total (R$)	Admissions	Admissions total (Est)
1	Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom	10.140.000	+6.9%	33.360.000	459.000	1.630.000
2	Minha Irmã e Eu	4.440.000	---	6.000.000	207.490	298.290

5	Renaissance - A Film by Beyonce	870.000	-81.8%	5.640.000	23.000	156.260

10	Priscilla (Pre-release)	140.000	---	300.000	5.990	13.250

 

R$20.6M was made during the weekend and 963.5k on admissions. (The table above includes the new year's day)

 

How incredible ironic that after a year of bomb after bomb, the very last weekend was when the local movies truly overperformed. Mamonas Assassinas had the best launch for a brazilian movie in 4 years (That of course, excluding the new year's day and pre-sales of Minha Irmãe Eu, otherwise that one takes the feat).

 

Aquaman 2 will soon become the best selling DC movie released in 2023 while Wonka will soon pass 2 million admissions, amazing results for both.

 

The rankings and statistics for the whole 2023 is out but I will wait until next week to report, it is better to wait for the final results.

 

Next weekend is the full release of Migration and Priscilla, also Wish and Dogman. Usually the week after the new year see increases for the top 5 again, not sure if it will repeat this year though with the release of two big animations.

This weekend's screen count:

 

-Wish: 1200 screens

-Migration: 1000 screens

-Dogman: 90 screens

-Priscilla: 89 screens

How much has Godzilla minus one made in Brazil total in usd? I noticed BOM hasn’t included it in its total worldwide count and I believe it’s over 1m usd?

I think it would be around $850,000, based on the 4,190,000 number in the table above.

[ThatWaluigiDude]

2023 have made a total of R$2.3B on the box office, up 25% compared to 2022, and sold 118M tickets, up 21%. From that total only 3% came from brazilian movies.

 

The top distributors were, in order of market share:

 

1-Universal: 25.05%

2-Warner: 22.31%

3-Disney: 22.09%

4-Paris Filmes: 7.77%

Total	R$1.831B	R$2.092B	---	Avatar: The Way of the Water	Barbie

 

This month have pushed 2023 above R$2B, but also saw the worst month of the year, despite the results of Hunger Games, Trolls 3 and FNAF. Part of it can be blamed of some that failed to deliver like The Marvels and Mussum, also for not having a super major hit like Wakanda Forever last year.

Total	R$1.831B	R$2.3B	+25.6%	Avatar: The Way of the Water	Barbie

 

And there you go, there is 2023. December was not good overall, these past couple of months actually were disapointing. For this year I plan to add more tabs on this table to compare 2024 with the last two years. I can tell january will have a lot to prove itself, without a big hit like NWH and WotW there will be the need of multiple movies doing well. Wish seens to be off to a very healthy start and the locals are having good holds, so I hope the box office can start building off to that.

R$36M was made on the box office, 1.7M tickets were sold, up 70% from last weekend and the best single weekend since october. Slightly down from the first weekend of last year though, when it sold 1.8M tickets mainly driven by Avatar 2 and Puss in Boots 2.

 

For the second weekend straight Aquaman increased and remained on top. It will soon pass The Flash's R$52M and Quantumania's R$56M, and maybe Across the Spiderverse's R$66M. The performance in the brazilian territory really is amazing, we will have to watch if it can pass Black Adam's R$79M though.

 

Minha Irmã e Eu is now the best selling brazilian movie since the pandemic and should become the first brazilian movie in 5 years to reach 1 million admissions. Ironically (or not) the last movie to do it was Minha Mãe é uma Peça 3 with the same director, Suzana Garcia. Mamonas Assassinas also reached a milestone and it is the 3rd best selling since the pandemic. A much needed win for brazilian movies.

 

Wish and Migration releasing the same weekend was not a good strategy and the canibalized each other. Even so, Wish had a very slightly better opening than Elemental and 3 times the opening of Strange World. Both should see good legs.

 

Next weekend releases Mean Girls, Beekeper, The Holdovers and Chama a Bebel.

[ThatWaluigiDude]

By the end of 2023, Brazil have reached a number of 833 working theaters (vs 805 in 2022) and 3500 working screens (vs 3366 in 2022). This means we are close to the pre-pandemic levels (2019 counted 852 theaters and 3507 screens).

[ThatWaluigiDude]

This weekend's screen count:

 

Beekeper: 790 screens

Mean Girls: 390 screens

Bebel: 252 screens

 

The rollout for Mean Girls is WAY too small for this movie, that will be a problem and a hell of a missing oportunity because right now the pre-sales are looking like this:

 

[ThatWaluigiDude]

Monday - wednesday (08-10 january) box office:

 

1) Aquaman 2: R$4.7M/  281.87k admissions

2) Wish: R$4.1M/ 258.54k admissions

3) Minha Irmã e Eu: R$3.2M/ 197.8k admissions

4) Migration: R$2.6M/ 171.32k admissions

5)Mamonas Assassinas: R$1.7M/  111.29k admissions

6) Wonka: R$1M/ 65k admissions

 

The last 7 days were the most profitable week since the Barbenheimmer week. Really good start of the year. Today Minha Irmã e Eu will pass 1 million admissions, Wish and Migration are locked to be the first two 2024 releases to reach that mark too.

This weekend R$29.95M was made on the box office and 1.36M on admissions.

 

Holds keep strong as Minha Irmã e Eu becomes the first brazilian movie to sell 1 million tickets in 5 years and Aquaman 2 became the first to do in 2024 alone (Wish should do too before next weekend. Mean Girls finished above Beekeeper despite having less than half the screens (I don't care what Reddit says, that rollout is a waste oportunity for Mean Girls, it did had the potential to do much higher).

 

Next weekend releases Night Swim, Turma da Mônica Jovem: Reflexos do Medo, May December, Concret Utopia and Robot Dreams.
