Yeah, presales for DP are quite good.

Actually, now that I look at Toho Cinema's website, it appears that Deadpool is going to be the new #1 movie in Japan.

 

Looks like it's going to be a very lively June for the Japanese box office.

[Quigley]

Last weekend was barely lower than its opening.

[cannastop]

Zootopia might gain seats on Saturday. Some of the more underperforming movies might be cleared out by then.

[cannastop]

Damn, nearly no one is going to the movies today in Japan. They're just waiting for the discount tomorrow.

6% drop... pretty good considering that yesterday was a huge Sports Monday and tomorrow is Ladies Day + First Day of Month Discount

They liked Ted's humor. Looks like DP could do well. 

 

Ted did $30m XR adjusted.  SH movies are 20-25m lately.

Forget about breaking the Billion Mark, apparently Japan made 2 Billion Dollars for Zootopia already. hahahaha

 

Just putting this here before they update again.

Ended up with a 13.2% drop. And I don't think Ladies Day applies tomorrow. usually it's 1,100 yen for ladies but First Day of the Month Discount just makes it 1,100 yen for everyone.

Deadpool is beating the crap out of Zootopia at the moment.

 

Does anyone know if this is normal for the first day of a hit movie?

PS: I probably would have a bigger problem with this if Zootopia wasn't already guaranteed to break 1 billion in less than two weeks.

Hit movies usually don't open mid-week, during the first of the month discount, so I have no idea what to compare it to.

Looks like Japan has jumped on the Deadpool hype train! Who knew they liked this kind of stuff?

Ticket prices discounted around 19% for everyone today, whereas last week was only for ladies.

Assuming ladies make up half the admissions, 19%/2 = 9.5%. Tickets were discounted 9.5% last Wednesday.

So ticket prices decreased by 9.5%, but admissions also increased by 9.2%... probably a flat or slight decrease in revenue compared to last week

 

As well as Deadpool is performing today, it does not seem like it is directly affecting Zootopia too much (if at all).

 

Another thing to take away from today is that the evening admissions have not been as strong as last week.
At 14:00, Zootopia was at 116.6% week-over-week, by 19:00, it has dropped to 109.2%. 

 

Perhaps we have passed the peak of Zootopia in Japan already, though the drop is still very small and could increase back up next week again.

Wow at Detective Conan. 54 million? Astonishing.

It's favorite anime of all time actually so am quite happy with a 20-year old anime which is still so successful.

Well, I don't know how big it will be. But Ted is a good precedent.

Well, you could look up opening saturdays.

Zootopia sold around 90,000 sampled tickets on its first day. Deadpool is probably going to come in under that for this Wednesday. I dont' know how it will do on Saturday, though.

Yes, not all old animes are still running and maintaining their success.

Sure, it's not like Doraemon, Dragon Ball, Crayon Shin-Chan, One Piece or fucking Naruto haven't had successful movies in Japan lately. They've all faded away!
