Mexico Box Office | Planet of the Apes is king with $6.4M OW; good holds for Garfield and Challengers

[Carlangonz]

As today don't see much danger for Coco facing Ragnarok. PS for the Thor threquel are pretty weak, on par with GOTG 2 ($153M) so i expect $170M-$180M 4-Day OW for the Marvel film and about a 55% drop for Coco fueled by a massive Wednesday

OCTOBER 27-29 WEEKEND. COCO TOPS WITH SOME RECORDS, HDD IS THE NEW VICTIM OF THE CINEPOLIS-UNIVERSAL COLD RELATIONSHIP

 

Coco

Let's talk about the records broken by the new Pixar animation inspired by mexican culture:

- Biggest opening for an October release

- Biggest opening for an original film (and obvioulsly, for an original animation)

Also joined some other Tops:

- 2nd biggest Fall launch behind It

- 3rd highest opening for a Disney animation

- 6th biggest OW for an animation

- #18 among All-Time openers

 

Now, how high will Miguel and Dante go? Pixar animations usually have long legs, with a few exceptions: Finding Dory (2.5x), Cars 3 (2.7x) and some others. Being an original property and facing strong competition on the upcoming weeks we could use Inside-Out as a comparison. Let's see many scenarios:

- Toy Story 3 scenario. $700M 

- Inside-Out scenario. $625M

- Monsters University scenario. $555M

- Cars 3 scenario. $485M

- Finding Dory scenario. $460M

 

With a very positive reaction from GA and a holiday coming this weekend the MU scenario seems the most realistic but with no animations coming and JL suffering from the Cinépolis' backlash we may see a higher number.

 

Happy Death's Day

- $50M is the best case scenario for this one. It had a terrific social media campaign but it all gone with the Cinépolis-Uni fight, seems that Universal is having a worst time than Cinépolis

really hope Coco can live up its background and score big number in this coming public holidays+ weekend, inside out drops 30% in its 2nd weekend, Coco should easily match that feat

[Carlangonz]

So far Coco's matinees are stronger than Ragnarok's ones. This will be an interesting weekend.

[Carlangonz]

Holy hell! We may saw the biggest Thursday ever as Ragnarok has the 3rd biggest OD of the year and Coco has nearly doubled its OW numbers

[Carlangonz]

So a boosted Thu will make Ragnarok a bit more frontloaded, still has a strong shot for $200M+ Forecast is $190M-$200M.

 

Coco it's on its way to $400M+ this weekend. $500M is locked.

 

 

[Carlangonz]

Just to compare: 

 

Yesterday Ragnarok opened with $57.1M while Coco did $54.3M. Will be very exciting if Coco keeps that way, my only concern is that it doesn't have enough screens to satisfy demand, for example: my local theatre had 10 showtimes for afternoon and night sold-out since midday.

 

[redgarlic68]

This is unbelievable...

I mean, my local cinema was chock full of people... Who went to watch Coco. Honestly, yesterday (dat of the dead) it was almost impossible to find a screen during the day for Coco, and the screens for Thor were at most half full. I know it's impossible for it to increase from OW, but I wish it did. Beautiful movie too, already watched it (and cried) twice.

Probably won't increase but it have a nice shot at dethroning No se Aceptan Devoluciones for biggest 2nd weekend ever.

[redgarlic68]

We're sorry, for the moment we do not have tickets for Coco on any schedule.

 

[Purple Minion]

I love epic weekend battles! I 450-475M lc for Coco by Sunday? Could it even reach 500M?

Probably not an increase but a minimum drop. Some theatres are removing showtimes for Thor so Coco can satisfy overwhelming demand!
