JAPAN BOX OFFICE | Demon Slayer breaks all time record for OW

[Issac Newton]

I forgot to mention that 2021 in Japan was the worst year for Hollywood in last 49 years, while it is the 3rd Biggest Year for Japanese Works. Variety stated that only 5 foreign films were commercially hit in Japan. (¥1.0B benchmark)

[JustLurking]

Pokemon 1 was distributed and marketed by warner and received a treatment no other anime movie could even dream of nowadays. Crunchyroll, funimation and whatever other small distributor gets those movies in europe can try their best but they simply do not have the resources to do anything close to that.

Spider-Man: No Way Home

¥1692M till Monday

Week 0 - 462M

Week 1 ~ 1652M

Week 2 ~ 719M (-56.5%)

Week 3 ~ 460M expected (-36%)

 

Total ~ 3293M in 3 weeks

 

Seems like ¥4-4.15B full run.

I really hope so, above Furious 9, above Infinity War and also above the ¥4B mark, at this point it's difficult asking for something more

3rd seems really poor for Resident Evil given the strength of the franchise other entries

Original Series:

¥2.30B : Resident Evil: Original (2002)

¥2.70B : Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004)

¥2.90B : Resident Evil: Extinction (2007)

¥4.70B : Resident Evil: Afterlife (2010)

¥3.81B : Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)

¥4.27B : Resident Evil: The Final Chapter (2016)

 

I haven't watched. So, I do not know anything about it. But, Original Series seems to be strong as Reboot Series has not attracted up much audience. Opening WK (Sat+Sun) : ~190M /77K attendees. Crossing ¥1,5B seems to be the present target.

[Issac Newton]

Apologies for inconvenience 🙏 I will upload actuals Until Sun sometimes later. But, don't know if weekend actual will be published or not 🚫

Spider Man should still be able to reach the ¥4B, but will fail to achieve the quite easy goal to doing 50% more than Far From Home (about ¥4.6B)

[Issac Newton]

Jujutsu Kaisen Movie 0 reached ¥10B in 43rd Day of release, which is 15th in History, just below Beauty &The Beast (42nd) Cumulative Total until 02/06 (Sun) is ¥10,456,322,400 with a mobilization of 7,603,732 visitors, ranking 34th in all-time highest Grossing Film in Japan. It will certainly exceeded ¥12B finales.

Someone on this forum already seemed to know some weekend data Sunday morning. He knows Ghostbusters: Afterlife debuted in fifth place.

Quote

Jujutsu Kaisen 0 is up ~50/55% in admissions thanks to its 4DX/MX4D, Dolby Cinema expansion, and third giveaway promotion. In revenue, due to the higher ticket prices for the new premium showings, it's possibly looking at a ~60/65% jump in revenue in its sixth weekend. Should be around ¥10.5 billion (~$94/95 million) now.

Reasonable enough ~35/40% hold for Spider-Man. Keeps it on track for a little over a ¥4 billion finish.

Ghostbusters: Afterlife basically bombed in its debut. 5th place start. I'd say surprising, but it's just not anymore.

 

[Issac Newton]

Everyone knows about ranks with Mimorin Blog (through admits) but we don't have actuals (revenue) reported for Japanese Films since 2nd WKend of January by Comscore. Bunka News only provides est. WK Reports for TOP 3 works at WK (Sat-Sun)
