Giesi Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 4 hours ago, Max said: Not really, the trailer didn't look so bad but not great either As for the usual #1 admissions total, I had a look at it on this websiste: http://www.jpbox-office.com/charts_france.php?qpage=datefr&variable=2016 It is very fluctuating so it is a bit hard to give an avergae. In some years, the 1st movie will attract more than 10 million people; in some other years, it will attract 6 or 7 million. I noticed that there is always a big difference between the 1st and 2nd place. I will probably be hard for Zootopie to retain the fist place Here are the admission figures for the 1st movie over the past 9 years: 2016 Zootopie 4 629 033 2015 Star Wars : Le Réveil de la Force 10 466 198 2014 Qu'est-ce qu'on a fait au Bon Dieu ? 12 361 430 2013 Frozen 5 151 855 2012 Skyfall 7 003 902 2011 Intouchables 19 490 688 2010 Harry Potter et [...] mort - partie 1 6 016 776 2009 Avatar 14 677 888 2008 Bienvenue chez les Ch'tis 20 489 303 (so depressing, seriously...) 2007 Ratatouille 7 845 210 Which movie do you think can overtake Zootopia this year?

Maybe Civil War, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story or Moana... Well, if Zootopie stays in the top 3 this year in my country, I will be more than happy ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if Zootopie stays in the top 3 this year in my country, I will be more than happy ^^ Rogue One will retain at least half of TFA's audience. Oh and Finding Nemo was a huge hit in 2003, so maybe FD a shot at becoming a huuuuge hit. Btw, will the UEFA Euro 2016 affect the film business in the way a big soccer tournament usually does in Germany? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynosure Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Yes, especially since it's in France. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannastop Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 (edited) @Max Why does it depress you that Bienvenue chez les Ch'tis sold so many tickets? Edited May 1, 2016 by cannastop 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) @cannastop I will be honest with you, I didn't even watch Bienvenue chez les Ch'tis. But after watching a few extracts, my internal anti-Z movie sensor detected that this is the kind of French movie I really dislike: old fashioned, tacky francocentric humor about the regional culture of Northern France. I should probably watch this movie to really judge it, all the more so as the ratings are not so terrible (3 stars out of 5 on average on allocine.fr). I can't help though, I just have a very bad feeling about it. I guess growing up with iconic, top of the list French movies, such as Jean de Florette, Manon of the Spring, Amélie or The Chorus make me very demanding about quality. @Giesi @Cynosure I actually never thought about the UEFA Euro cup but it will certainly affect the film business. It will depend if our respective countries go far in the tournament. Edited May 2, 2016 by Max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynosure Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) 5 day total : 1,212,314 By comparison : Iron Man 3 : 1 633 980 Avengers 2 : 1 556 508 Avengers : 1 441 080Captain America 3 : 1 212 314 Iron Man 2 : 1 092 774 Thor 2 : 1 053 213 Thor : 781 803 Iron Man : 774 306 Les Gardiens de la Galaxie : 732 378 Captain America 2 : 657 540 Ant-Man : 523 788 (6 days) L'Incroyable Hulk : 418 456 Captain America : 334 805 It's having poor early legs in this market as well. Early admissions had it on par with AOU and now it's fallen almost 350k behind. In the end it might not even beat Deadpool (3.74M admissions) for 2016 n°1 superhero movie.

Max Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 @Cynosure You are right. I really thought CA3 would be huge here but Deadpool and Zootopie actually did better at the opening week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynosure Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Yep. I'm glad Zootopia will keep the yearly #1 at least a while longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cynosure Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 (edited) CW is flopping in France. It's looking at a 65-70% week on week drop. 3M is dead. It will finish barely above BvS and likely more than 1m admissions below Deadpool. Edited May 5, 2016 by Cynosure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimmyRiggins Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 What a baffling market really regarding superhero movies lately, and I live there. F that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pensivepenguin Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Hmmm. I wonder if it's the content of the film (i.e., pseudopolitical, kinda American politics really). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tucmaster Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Early predictions in France are quite good for CW : 25% decline but I don't really believe this... weather is very good and yesterday the theater I went to was half empty... And the same site projected the first week at 1.9 M admissions and it did "only" 1.4M... http://www.cine-directors.net/boxbis.htm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynosure Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Yeah, the guy is bonkers. Overall drop should be softer than Parisian drop but no way it's as low as 25%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a bit old news now, but according to Box Office Mojo, Zootopia grossed +$36M, this is virtually a $5M jump from the previous weekend. I was very surprised at first but on second thought, it makes a bit sense because the admission is 4,685,653. Source: http://www.jpbox-office.com/fichfilm.php?id=15556&affich=france It gives an average ticket price of $36,449,253/4,685,653 = $7.77. By the way, is the title of this thread not too old? ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
