Fullbuster Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 That'd be a 6 million third week isn't it? Probably among the best ever and bigger than a lot of blockbuster's OW! And all of this with a Mexican peso that lost 15% of its value this year against the US Dollar, it's clearly a disadvantage..And despite that the movie is destroying everything, an it still has 2 weeks ahead of him before Age of Ultron.

Purple Minion Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 As per Boxoffice.com: "Run All Night premiered in Mexico with $1.3 million on 1,100 screens" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullbuster Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 The Avengers got $17.4m OW in 2012, TA2 will beat that pretty easily, even with a weaker Mexican peso. FF7 got $22.5m, I hope TA2 can beat this, why not $25m OW? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Minion Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 It's going to be a close one, FF7 is box office magnet for Mexico (1/3 of the US admissions have been Hispanic) while the Marvel Universe is starting to show symptons of fatigue. Do we know if TA2 is opening on more screens than FF7? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we know if TA2 is opening on more screens than FF7? I don't know, but I don't believe in this supposed "Marvel fatigue", I heard it for a few years and every time a movie is released there is a confirmation it is non-existent. Guardians of the Galaxy wonderfully showed it. So I don't expect any effect on TA2 from something that doesn't exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Minion Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 I was referring to Marvel in Mexico. CA2 and Thor 2 OW was just 10% (in average) higher than their first installment, under that pattern TA2 would do 20M max - FF7 OW was a freak anomaly. However, TA2 may have better legs than FF7. Happy to be proven wrong by numbers in the next weeks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy to be proven wrong by numbers in the next weeks! AOU though is opening during the same time frame as Avengers The first CA and Thor both opened in the summer where OW should be higher. The sequels opened in early April and Nov. CA2 finished in US $s 25% higher and TDW and about 20% higher - both with worse exchange rates than in 2011. IM3 also opened about the same as Avengers did in Mexico with $17m Edited April 19, 2015 by TalismanRing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbuster Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 My final forecast for TA2 in Mexico : $25m OW $72m total It's optimistic but perfectly possible It would be the all-time record in both cases anyway. And in admissions and Mexican Peso it would be even more spectacular. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you talk about the Mexican peso you also use the "$" sign? Anyway, even here the exchange rates is a bit troublesome, $7m lost for FF7 it's not nothing...

Fullbuster Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Box Office - 17-19 April - Top 3 Do you know the total number of admissions in Mexico in 2014?

Hernan Gonzalez Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Do you know the total number of admissions in Mexico in 2014? I know the market got a small decrease in dollars but I can't find the number of admissions...That would be cool Early in January I read that in 2014 253m admissions had been sold in Mexico. A little bit less admissions but a little bit more money than 2013 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Interesting. I guess there were few uber blockbusters in 2014. Did Mal break out huge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Minion Posted April 21, 2015 Author Share Posted April 21, 2015 (edited) 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: http://www.statista.com/statistics/245595/attendance-at-movie-theaters-in-mexico/ This site contains all box office statistics for 2014 in Mexico but it's suscription only: https://technology.ihs.com/342984/ According to this document, Mexico is still the 10th largest movie market in the word even though box office went down 5% in 2014: http://www.mpaa.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/MPAA-Theatrical-Market-Statistics-2014.pdf Edited April 21, 2015 by Palomito de Maiz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullbuster Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Early in January I read that in 2014 253m admissions had been sold in Mexico. A little bit less admissions but a little bit more money than 2013 Thanks Henry So admissions decreased for the first time in 2014, by 4 million, and the growth in Mexican Peso grew thanks to inflation. I know it decreased in dollars because of the exchange rates. Apparently the decrease in 2014 is mostly due to a disappointing supply of movies so 2015 will be much better : FF7 already beat the highest grossing movie of 2014 (Maleficent) and The Avengers 2 will do it too so that's obvious: 2015 will destroy 2014 and 2013 in admissions and dollars.
