DECEMBER 20-24 WEEKEND.

 

1. The Lost Kingdom - $62.7M/$85.5M

2. Wonka - $32.2M/$260.5M (-51.94%)

3. Migration - $13.1M/$61.3M (-55.59%)

4. Napoleon - $3.1M/$127.2M (-59.74%)

5. Lord of Misrule - $2.6M

6. Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes - $2.1M/$182M (-66.13%)

7. Papá o Mamá - $1.5M/$48.3M (-70.59%)

8. Wish - $1.4M/$84.8M (-62.16%)

9. Journey to Bethlehem - $0.762M

10. The Mean One - $0.715M/$6.2M (-80.68%)

 

Walk-ins for Aquaman's opening day were way ahead than expected but then Thu-Fri were just okay with a small bump on Sat-Sun. With holidays going and New Year's next week it should comfortably pass $200M by that point.

 

Wonka still going strong. It'll cross $300M before New Year's Eve and then will look to join to the $350M+ club with Elemental, The Meg 2 and Transformers.

 

Migration just going along but it doesn't seem like it's blowing up. Even with holidays will do just the same range as Trolls and Paw Patrol. 

 

As seen, most of holdovers are already losing ground with newcomers and will likely vanish after this week.

Minus One is 40% ahead of Boy and the Heron's same point before its Christmas opening. 

 

Also biggest presales tracked since Five Nights at Freddy's. Of course it's skewing due to its nature but still kinda impressive it went over Marvels and Aquaman with 1/3 capacity.

 

As 4DX and dubbed shows were added just recently I think bodes well for walk-ins and close to $1M USD opening until Sunday.

DECEMBER 21-24 WEEKEND. 

1. The Lost Kingdom - 
$54.7M/$213M (-12.76%)
2. Wonka - $36.3M/$332M (+12.73%)
3. Godzilla: Minus One - $25M 
4. Migration - $14.5M/$88.9M (+10.69%)
5. The Boy and the Heron - $12.7M/$20.5M
6. Next Goal Wins - $7.2M 
7. Napoleon - $2.7M/$132.6M (-12.9%)
8. Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes - $1.7M/$185.7M (-19.05%)
9. Priscilla - $1.6M/$2.1M 
10. Lord of Misrule - $1.6M/$7.2M (-38.46%)

Including New Year's Day

  • The Lost Kingdom - $237M
  • Wonka - $348.8M
  • Minus One - $32.7M
  • Migration - $97.8M
  • Boy and the Heron - $23.9M
  • Next Goal Wins - $9.8M
  • Napoleon - $134.5M
  • Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes - $187M
  • Priscilla - $2.9M
  • Lord of Misrule - $8.1M

Great openings and holds across the board. Godzilla and The Boy and the Heron see great overperformances with their runs still ahead as the latter is expanding to IMAX shows this Thursday. Hopefully they can leg good enough to approach $100M and $50M respectively. 2023 is now the first year ever to have 4 japanese titles crossing $1M USD following Demon Slayer and Suzume.

Aquaman is now looking to finish close to The Flash and Quantumania with $330M+ as January remains empty and it'll be the biggest release for a while. Wonka is also now looking to secure a $400M+ final and pass both Freddy and The Nun II as No 6 of the year.

Migration is replicating last year's success of Puss in Boots but still holding well and not getting any competition soon so may be aiming nearby to $150M

Priscilla did great on limited release. Basically just selected screens and prime shows; not expecting a huge splash from expansion but okay for a streaming-platform release.

2023 Global Box Office: Mexico #7 OS market, $940M, according to Gower Street. Biggest Spanish speaking market, 35% of Latin America's gross.

 

https://gower.st/articles/gower-street-analytics-estimates-2023-global-box-office-hit-33-9-billion/

 

Thinking about $16.6B +/- $0.3B lc. About +38% from 2022 and too close to 2017's $16.66B. Below both 2018-2019. Former was still on the $16B range and the latter was of course an anomaly which neared $20B.

In admissions is about 242M. +33% from 2022 but is still 10 years behind as 2012 sold 229M admissions and 2013 sold 257M.

Thanks to a fantastic performance by mexican peso, USD stays stable and back on line with pre-COVID results.

Thank you so much! Ah, Wakanda Forever didn't reach 700M lc and Spideyverse II got this close to half a billion.

 

Elemental managing to squeeze into the yearly Top 10 just above the last Transformers is a nice surprise.

Godzilla pushed Night Swim out of the Top 3! Ha! Great hold, and also for The Boy and The Heron and specially Priscilla... January is being quite productive so far.

 

Wonka should become the 82nd movie to cross 400M lc by Saturday.

Both Boy and the Heron and Priscilla should become the top grossers ever for their respective distributors; Canibal and MUBI. Both of them usually distribute low-profile titles that get limited releases so this is huge for them. 

And even though Minus One isn't locked yet to become Konnichiwa's biggest release (that still goes to DS: To the Swordsmith Village) it is their biggest live-action as well as it is overalll Japanese live-actions and No. 2 for an asian live-action behind Parasite.

The Lost Kingdom and Wonka shall normalize now that kids are back on school but with an empty January they'll keep seeing good numbers.
