F2 needs 1/3 of F1 legs to reach $180M.

F1 legs is not a way to look at this. Even 12x for huge openers is not a norm. 10x is itself out of the world. But let us wait and watch. for Japan we need to wait until 3rd weekend to judge the legs. 2nd weekend will have good hold 15-20%. 3rd weekend needs to be similar to keep pushing for extraordinary run. Plus dont forget it has no holiday push until very late in its run when its screen count will be well below what it has now.

F1 was perfect release and golden week boost and then summer legs.

That is not bad at all. How about Aladdin. That was the leggy one recently.

Thank you @RJ 95. I am not sure we can take F1 ratings now. it seem very low for a movie with insane legs. May be this sites dont track all the audience base?

Its actually spring break that supported its weekday first then golden week tsunami came on its 8th weekend and 9th week.

@RJ 95 @keysersoze123

I don't believe there's a big correlation considering that Aladdin had way better legs than TS4 despite a slight difference in ratings

[Jiffy]

Would have been cool if this had stayed over $15m 2-day / $18m 3-day, but there's no quibbling with such a massive debut.

So big that it isn’t a blockbuster, then what is it? A citybuster? A countrybuster?

From Corpse WOKJ :

 

As I told Keyser, second weekends are typically among the strongest in a films' run, and I don't expect any different for Frozen II. In fact, without any holiday support during its first 5-6 weeks of release, its weekday business will be "average", so it could experience some mighty strong upcoming weekends.

But that said... its actual came in a little lower than I estimated, and... it narrowly missed the Animated Film Opening Weekend Record (by a mere 0.8%), thus missing the Biggest Opening Weekend of the Decade (and since 2007) as well. The first Yo-Kai Watch film will hold onto them.

Actual:

2-Day Opening Weekend: ¥1,616,000,000 ($14.9 million) / 1,210,000 admissions.
3-Day Total: ¥1,939,746,600 ($17.8 million) / 1,452,530 admissions.

It's still an insanely huge opening, obviously, and still set a record for an imported animated film debut and Disney film debut in both revenue and admissions. And it's the biggest opening weekend of the year -- a year with five (probably six when Star Wars IX opens) films opening above ¥1 billion. I believe this is a new record, especially if/when Star Wars becomes the sixth.

Weekend Actuals and Chart Updates will be posted in a couple of hours.

Is the soundtrack or any song from frozen getting huge sales? 

[Xftg123]

How many weekends will F2 remain at #1? I noticed that there hasn't been a film since Your Name (?) that stayed at #1 for over 10 weekends.

Curious to see what second weekend looks like. I imagine a massive drop for frozen 2 from the original. Just how massive is the question. Like 50% or more?

 

Just looking at that original run dear God.

It needs to pull $150M for a chance at $1 billion OS.

People expect it do drop 40% from the first one. (Drop $100M)
