Mexico Box Office | Bad Boys ride to the top, $4.2M OW; all eyes on Inside Out 2

[Fullbuster]

Interesting. I guess there were few uber blockbusters in 2014. Did Mal break out huge?

 

$46m for Maleficent

[Fullbuster]

Yes, the $ is also used for Mexican pesos. Will use MX$ to avoid any confussion from now on

 

A nice graphic with the growth in admissions in Mexico, 2007-2013:

This site contains all box office statistics for 2014 in Mexico but it's suscription only:

According to this document, Mexico is still the 10th largest movie market in the word even though box office went down 5% in 2014:

Wow, thank you That's great

[Fullbuster]

In a few years Mexico will be the 7th biggest movie markey, passing Australia, Russia and Germany

India should be third, passing France and the UK.

The Avengers did $61.7m according to BOM, $63m according to Egeda (Spanish private company) or $62.8m using OD exchange rate...

 

[tupek]

Instructions not Included is the most amazing run in this country

[Fullbuster]

13 million admissions for FF7??? OMG

[Emirazza]

Can AoU make 70-80M this time?

[Fullbuster]

Can AoU make 70-80M this time?

 

Yes it can

[Emirazza]

Yes it can

100M? 

[druv10]

100M? 

 

Don't go crazy. Just be happy, if it does do 70M. 

[Fullbuster]

100M? 

 

Probably not, the market doesn't seem big enough to give us a movie beyond $90m, in a few years it will be possible. TA4 will probably pass $100m

[Purple Minion]

Cool video by Rentrak showing the movie industry highlights of 2014 in Mexico:

 

 

For those not lucky enough to speak Spanish :

- Mexico generates 2.7% of the worldwide gross

- Repeats as the #4 market in audience, after US, China and India, and 10th in gross measured in US$.

- 2014 was the highest grossing year ever! Increase of 1.11% in MX$ (11,190M vs 11,190M).and 0.05% in audience.

- Audience of 256.4 million in 637 movie theatres, 5,799 screens and over 1 million seats.

- Two formats went up: 4D (+35% gross, +47.4% audience) and IMAX (+20.7% gross, +33.5 audience)

- 161% increase in theatres showing Mexican movies (current average = 134 theatres per movie)

[tupek]

Columbia? Seriously?

 

[Fullbuster]

The Avengers got $17m OW in 2012 while FF7 got $22.5m OW.

Cna TA2 beat this? It's very likely, we'll see

[Infernus]

I believe this can come close to 75m $ here. Would be incredible if it crosses that.

[Fullbuster]

I believe this can come close to 75m $ here. Would be incredible if it crosses that.

 

Indeed.

However I will be glad as long as it passes TA1

[Lordmandeep]

Matching TA would be the goal for now with exchange rates, anything more is great.

[Fullbuster]

Matching TA would be the goal for now with exchange rates, anything more is great.

 

Yeah, we shouldn't be too greedy

[Fullbuster]

So, what is the current gross of FF7? I guess it passed $50m now.
