Mexico Box Office | Challengers cannot dent Kongzilla's crown; big anime OW for Spy x Family

[Purple Minion]

Weekly figures. Moana should win the weekend, but will it perform more in lc like Tangled than like Frozen? ER would be brutal.

• Underwood Blood Wars: $1.3M OW
• Sully did $1M over the weekend.
• Fantastic Beasts up to $13+M.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Purple Minion]

Weekend figures. Moana opened lower than Zootopia, Tangled, Wreck It Ralph, Frozen, Big Hero 6 and about the same as The Good Dinosaur. You get the idea, nothing too write home about. Could it have a great hold just like in the rest of Latin America, or become the first recent DA movie not to reach $10M? Meanwhile, FB passes Doctor Strange and Trolls now has grossed more than Storks.

Weekend actuals. Moana's hold is insane, don't remember seeing anything similar in ages. Decent opening by Train to Busan.  FB on its way out, all eyes are now on Rogue One and Diego Luna's effect.

[Purple Minion]

Preliminary industry numbers for 2016 (up to 30 November):

• Another record-breaking year: a forecast of 327 million tickets sold, a 10% increase from last year, and 15,018 million lc in gross, +9%.
• In terms of ticket sales, Mexico is the #4 worldwide market and the #5 in growth.
• ER fall has a big impact in the outcome, but Mexico will still be the #10 worldwide market in total USD gross.
• With 6,308 movie screens, it's the 4th largest market in the world and the 2nd in growth, just behind China.
• Ticket prices went down 1% due to all the Summer special offers.
• Average attendance up to 2.5 movies per year.
• Warner and Disney are neck to neck in the #1 studio race.

[Purple Minion]

Rogue One opened on Thu to less than $1M, 65% drop in lc and audience. If it follows TFA multiplier, weekend will be about $3.5M which would be frankly meh. However TFA was more front-loaded, so let's hope it can reach at least $5M!

Breath of relief as Moana shows those sexy legs!  *SIGH*

[Purple Minion]

Weekend estimates:

• Rogue One opens to $5.1M, a 48% drop from TFA in lc; must have had a strong Sun. If it behaves like TFA, it would end in the $13-15M vicinity.
• $1.6M OW for Collateral Beauty, higher than Silver Linings Playbook and Birdman.
• Moana reaches $8.7M with another decent hold. It'd be tough to reach $10M since Sing opens next weekend.

[Fullbuster]

NEW BOX OFFICE THEORY POLL : DON'T HESITATE TO TELL US WHERE YOU COME FROM IN THIS THREAD ->

 

[Purple Minion]

Weekend actuals! Rogue One drop was actually 47.5% from TFA, less front-loaded and potentially better legs. However not enough to enter the yearly Top 10 OWs.

Moana had a great 3rd week drop < 50% and it's now the #24 movie of the year in lc. FB towards the end of its lifetime, may fall short of 300M lc.

There were previews for Sing (didn't know that!), they may have been very limited since it pulled low numbers. Could it emulate SLOP's success? Wonder if it'll use songs in Spanish?

Rogue One added $1.1M on Mon/Tue for a $6.2M total; should be at $7M by Thu, well positioned to reach $10M by early next week... if Sing doesn't cannibalise its audience!

[Purple Minion]

Latest figures, up to Thursday. Rogue One is now at $7.2M, however Sing is showing strong previews so it should be a close battle this weekend. Also, local movie Un padre no tan padre is getting a lot of screens!

[Purple Minion]

Weekend figures. Christmas effect = very deep drops for everyone ... except Sing, expanding after previews, winning the weekend and climbing to $3.5M. Rogue One falls 70% for a $8.2M total. Moana has a fantastic multiplier and reaches $10M. Passengers and local movie Un padre... opened to less than $1M.

Purple, so overall how was the year in admissions/pesos/USD?

Mexico seemed underwhelming this year.

[Purple Minion]

It was another record year as per preliminary numbers (see below), the low ER however had a negative impact on USD gross.

 

 

[A District 3 Engineer]

Passengers Opened yesterday... on Christmas, a day when almost everyone stay at home. 

[Purple Minion]

It may do well on weekdays. Passengers is getting the most screen this week from what I've seen, in 3 versions: Spanish, Subtitled and 3D Spanish. One sample cinema tomorrow has 23 screens for Passengers vs 12 for Sing vs 10 for Rogue One.

[Purple Minion]

December holidays are always great for big budget family movies, and this year is not an exception: Both Sing and Moana have great weekdays. Sing is following the same strategy as SLOP with discounted tickets offers (around 20% cheaper than usual), reaching $6.5M; Moana now has a brilliant 3.8x multiplier and almost $11M total, and it's now the #20 movie of the year in lc gross and audience. On the other side, Ballerina can only muster a $138K debut.

Passengers gets close to $3M after 5 days; meanwhile, Rogue One slows down a bit, weekend's gross will be key indicator of future performance.
