Variety reports that Your Name will get an Oscar qualification this year, so 2016 will be the most competitive animated feature category ever!

I still doubt that it's going to get an Oscar nom.

>Death Note: Light Up the New World, Warner Bros.'s fourth live-action film and continuation of the popular series, debuts in first place at the box office this weekend - unseating Your Name.'s nine week reign atop the box office.

Based on estimates, compared to its predecessors, its opening weekend is up over 2006's Death Note by ~5%; ~44% behind 2006's The Last Name; ~25% behind L: Change the World from 2008.

Overall, I'd consider Light Up the New World's opening mostly successful, if it ends up above the first Death Note film, but it's also noticeably lower than the last two entries in the series. I wouldn't have expected it to match the second film's opening (a lot of anticipation surrounded it), but being down 25% compared to the 2008's spin-off is a bit disappointing.

>Your Name. is finally dethroned after spending nine-consecutive weeks atop the box office. However, on a weekend where every other holdover suffered severe drops, Makoto Shinkai's uber-blockbuster still managed a great hold. Its estimated tenth weekend is the third biggest of all-time, only behind Spirited Away's and Frozen's.

And after nine weeks in release, it's not just ~¥200 million shy of becoming the seventh highest grossing film of all-time, and has sold over 13.1 million admissions in the process, becoming the ninth most-attended film of all-time.

>Inferno was looking in pretty good shape heading into the weekend frame after a respectable Friday showing, but it just kinda of fizzled out over the weekend and winded up being a major disappointment.

The third film in this series' estimated opening weekend is down a whopping ~79% from The Da Vinci Code, and a significant ~51% compared to Angels & Demons, too.

Today Your Name passes Harry Potter2 and Bayside Shakedown to reach #7 alltime (total should be around 17,4BYen)

[SchumacherFTW]

Let's aim for 5th now!

>Your Name. was denied its tenth-consecutive week atop the box office last weekend by Death Note: Light Up the New World, but based on pre-sales and morning/afternoon ticket sales - it's on track to reclaim the top spot in its eleventh week in release.

On Thursday, Makoto Shinkai's phenomenon surpassed both Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and Bayside Shakedown: Save the Rainbow Bridge! to become the 7th Highest-Grossing Film of All-Time. It is now the 9th Most-Attended Film of All-Time as well, and still has plenty of upcoming admissions to boost it even higher in the coming weeks/months.

That's pretty much the only news for this weekend. The first couple weekends of November are typically absent of any notable openers, so if Your Name. reclaims the #1 spot this weekend, it'll likely remain there again for a couple more weeks.

Is 20b locked? I would've said it looked quite safe, but I'm not good at projecting.

It looks good, but it could start getting hit by movies like Fantastic Beasts and Rogue One soon. So long as it can beat Howl I'll be happy.

Nobody expected it to pass Frozen, at least not that I remember of...But it's ok, $180m+ is crazy high!

I still doubt that it's going to get an Oscar nom.

Indeed, I imagine it'll be a fight between GKIDS' Miss Hokusai and FUNimation's Your Name, though honestly neither may make it seeing as how the Oscars only seem to appreciate Ghibli's work.

[Quigley]

I think ¥20B is quite safe.

The former has the slight edge since it plays better in the unaccounted for rural prefectures, and has a minuscule avg. ticket price advantage (~0.1%). If Your Name. reclaims the top spot, it'll achieve its tenth non-consecutive week atop the box office charts. >The openers were duds, unsurprising for this time of year, though only one (Drowning Love) ended up having potential at a ¥100 million start in the end, and it's a very borderline estimate. >High & Low: The Red Rain appears to have resurface in the Top 10, thanks to an increase on Sunday versus last Sunday. I haven't been tracking it closely, but I'm guessing there were some stage greetings or some other event taking place yesterday. Whatever the case, it was able to boost the film enough to get it to/over the ¥1 billion milestone.
