Presales for SLOP are way stronger than Jungle Book, a breakout very likely.

And I think we can officially say 1B WW is dead for JB.

Out of the three main new releases like Jungle Book, X-Men Apocalypse, and SLOP can you list in order the strongest to weakest in presales?

Ghostbusters is going to get more seats later on in its run. Also, those percentages are supposed to be % of the overall market, but I think there was a glitch in the system. This is supposed to be around 66% of the total seats in Japan.

 

The Secret Life of Pets has a surprising dominance in the busy Obon period. It appears that it has the biggest auditoriums.

Yeah, Ghostbusters isn't officially released yet.  It's receiving previews (very rare in the market) over Obon Festival (Thursday-Sunday) prior to its anticipated release next week.  

 

The Secret Life of Pets is going to perform very well, and it doesn't really come as a surprise.  The Despicable Me/Minions brand is quite popular in Japan, so Illumination's first film since then is going to garner some extra attention.  Minions, in particular, was a major success, managing to exceed the ¥5 billion milestone to become the highest-grossing, non-Disney/Pixar, imported animated film of all-time in the market.

Nah.  I just think it's due to being the next film by Illumination following their blockbuster success of Minions.  And it's an animated film being release during Summer Vacation as well, which naturally gives it an advantage.  Family animated films do extraordinary business in July/August, but often suffer severe declines once September rolls around and exit theaters soon after.

Well, this time of year is way more crowded than any other time of the year, so competition for seating/showtimes is intense.  Late-July through Mid-August consists of the strongest 6 weeks of the box office year, so the schedule is packed with many tentpoles during this period.  It's understandable that X-Men, a superhero film - a genre that isn't particularly popular in Japan, isn't receiving a large release in terms of seating/showtimes compared to most of the other films in release right now.

So SH films are not popular in Japan then? also what genres are the most popular in Japan?

superhero films never breakout in japan,except spiderman at least, even the dark knight trilogy were very weak in japan, and each of the marvel offering never pass ￥4billion yen, while you can see others franchise like Harry Potter, Pirate of Caribbean, Star wars, they were all able to challenge ￥10b yen uber-blockbuster level! Even frozen did ￥25b in japan, so we can see how japanese are inert towards the global superhero-hype recently.....deadpool relatively good performance is totally a surprise!
