mexico Mexico Box Office | Inside Out 2 close to $72M; will Day One create much noise?

[Purple Minion]

Recap of all Pixar movies with more than 10M tickets sold. Worth pointing out that OW increased to 4 or 5-day in recent years, but nonetheless, Inside Out 2 is aiming to become a new lc opening champion. Audience-wise, that's a different story: 7M OW and 20M final would be a fantastic achievement.

Would this be a top 10 OW of all time?

 

Yup, and potentially Top 3 for an animated movie behind Mario and TS4.

[Purple Minion]

CANACINE's numbers, including Monday: Bad Boys 97.84M lc (1.3M tickets), IF 160.67M lc (2.5M), Apes 325.83M lc (4.9M), Garfield 345M lc (5.4M), Furiosa 98M lc (1.3M).

[Carlangonz]

Final allocation from the sample is looking like will finish with 64k-65k seats available; that's close to 20% above Barbenheimer and would translate on 5,000+ screens. Shows starting as early as 10:00AM for the whole weekend.

Talk about timing... worst ER in months, it will affect IO2's USD figures.

Significant final push before opening. Behind Little Mermaid's last increase but not that it was needed after the massive weekend it had and still was way ahead of Spiderverse and Barbie's.

Still holding out some reservations because I'm seeing early afternoon and late night shows barely growing unlike what I had seen for Toy Story 4 for its final days. At Perisur; its T-17 hours number was ahead of Mario's T-14 hours which is a great sign.

This is the biggest animated presaller since Toy Story 4 beating both Mario and Rise of Gru so huge weekend incoming. Expecting less walk-ups and more front-loadness than the latter two but should still deliver Disney its biggest opening since 2022's Multiverse of Madness.

Sadly ER is taking a big hit and it'll get worse in a few hours right before the opening.

Opening Day: $100M-$110M ($5.2M-$5.7M)
Opening Weekend: $470M-$520M ($24.7M-$27.3M)

You are right, it opened on a Wednesday... the spreadsheet from CANACINE still counts the 508M lc figures as opening weekend. Maybe they were considered as previews? I just don't know anymore 🙃

It is the 4-Day opening weekend. Wednesday adds up to $697M or so I remember.

[Purple Minion]

Deadline: Mexico is already the biggest grossing market of the pack for IO2, taking $5.7M yesterday and scoring the 3rd highest animated opening day of all time, and 9th industry debut day overall. The launch day was 2x higher than the first Inside Out, 3x bigger than Kung Fu Panda 4 and 2.6x over Minions: The Rise of Gru. IO2 came in with a 90% market share.

[Carlangonz]

Cinemex is facing issues and long queues with their services due to overwhelming demand throughout this weekend.

 

Last time I remember they issued an statement like this for a similar problem was for No Way Home.

[Purple Minion]

IO2 is overperforming in the US, "there’s a huge turnout by Hispanic and Latino moviegoers in walk-ups, hence the big business. "  Hope walk-ups are huge here too!

[Carlangonz]

Massive $122M/$6.6M Friday for Inside Out 2.

 

Up to $227M/$12.3M with $500M+ opening weekend looking like a done deal.

[Purple Minion]

#5 of the year after just 2 days!

[Carlangonz]

Friday figure is the 4th largest day this decade after No Way Home's Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday.

 

Saturday and Sunday for Joy and Co. shall challenge those of the Peters.

Unless there was something special with Friday, I guess $175M SUN.
