Mexico Box Office | Garfield scratches great $8.4M 6-day OW; safe $2.5M start for The Fall Guy

[Sam]

Awesome number! Mayday will help boost Friday too. Hoping for 25M+.

[picores]

25m OW should happen, maybe more. Right? Jesus.

[Hernan Gonzalez]

Amazing OD! Can anyone to a weekend projection off that number? Keeping in mind it was boosted by being a holiday.

Yesterday was not a holiday. Today is. Close to $30m looks doable with that OD. Amazing!!!

[Purple Minion]

Using FF7 multiplier, TA2's OW would be $25.4M. It'd be the 33rd highest grossing movie ever after just 4 days. But I think it will be higher because of Labour Day holiday today and the sheer amount of theatres showing it.

 

Henry - yesterday was sort of a holiday, Children's Day, lots of families would have attended.

okay " a sort of holiday". Still numbers would be boosted beyond normal. $25 million sounds really good for this but I don't think $30 million is in play. 

[Fullbuster]

OMG, it's a sunny and wonderful day so I decide to do a 2-hour walk and that's when I'm doing that that you give numbers, unfair

 

This OD number is fantastic!!! I forecast $25m before and it should really happen

[picores]

Thinking around 26-27m....we'll see.

[Purple Minion]

Just realised that $6.8M is about 2M admissions! That is huge!

What is the single day record?

Damn, in just one day. Ticket prices are really low in that country!

With the same average price than in Brazil that would give $10m+ OD

[Purple Minion]

I suppose the biggest, previous OD audience would be FF7 with 1.6M admissions. Its average ticket price was $3.36.

If this country had normal ticket prices the weekend would be like:

 

Normaly 27M, that would be like 8M admission

If it had normaly ticket prices of lets say 8.5$, that would make 68M $ Opening, that would be so huge!!

[Rsyu]

This market obviously still has huge room for growth just from ticket price inflation.

Thank Palomito I will be happy with a new OW record of "just" $23m

It will easily pass France, the UK, SK and Germany during the next decade -> good economy, potential inflation and young population, it's quite a winning formula.

Thank Palomito I will be happy with a new OW record of "just" $23m

 

I really hope it can pass TA1

$62m isn't easy to reach but the potential is there.

[pepsa]

But avengers did 1.4M more on it's first day, has a holiday on friday isn't is logical to assume it will atleast doe 1.2M more every day than FF7 so that would mean atleast 26.7M $.

 

Now i see:

At worst 25M

At best 32M

 

And I am expecting 28.7M opening

Just imagine what would happen in India with ticket prices like U.S.

People will stop going to the movies. The segment of the population which can afford 300-500 rupee tickets is extremely small. Anything above 50 is a detriment in smaller centers.

2M audience confirmed:

@boxofficemexico Tan solo en su primer día en México 2 millones de personas vieron @Avengers

It's crazy, in Brazil TA2 got 650,000 admissions OD + previews.
