I was way off today 😅   
 

But that was a known risk since I don’t have any break days to compare to. F2’s revenue share is a bit up and it held fine looking at the last Mon 23rd, in 2013. That Tues 24 saw The Suspect open with about 330k, and with Cats at a final KOBIS number of 311k it might head for around there. The holdovers varied from 25% daily drops to 100% daily bumps, and with F2 CGV PS at 15k (up 78% from yesterday) I think it will have a nice Eve performance. Around 72k if I had to guess, but this is another day with high variance.   
 

A couple other movies are opening today, The Queen’s Corgi and Snow Queen:The Mirrorlands. Both are 24k final PS and shouldn’t really affect anything. Forbidden Dream is up to D-02 33k, looking fairly small as well.

Maybe just 62k today, same weekly % drop as yesterday of about 35%. Vs last week F2 is dealing with a lot of new business though. Last time we had this calendar I think they just had a Cultire Day Christmas, where this year Culture Day was pushed back a day to the 26th. So not sure how the 25th will play.     
 

Cats has an 86% Egg right now. Kind of bad but definitely not a disaster. It’s gonna make some legit money over here :jeb!:

Not good news... :(

If it is 35% drop for this week, then $100M can be still possible?

Japan/China/South Korea did a ton for Frozen 2. It was impossible to replicate the 12 month run of Japan. Fact is getting even close is amazing.

 

Frozen 2 is a huge success

 

Japan was more like a 5 months run (it released in March and made very little after August). It stayed #1 at the box office for 16 consecutive weeks but dropped quickly in the summer once the DVD/Blu-ray was released.

I hope Frozen 2 can cross the $100M in Korea even if it can only barely make it. Then it will become the 2nd movie (after Avatar) and the 1st animated movie to gross more than $100M in each of the 3 biggest markets in Asia: China, Japan and Korea. 

 

( Avatar: China $208M, Japan $171M, Korea $115M).

 

While Frozen 2 already passed this milestone in China and Japan will be very likely to happen too, Korea is quite tough. It is already at the last phase of its run ($92M so far). Only need $8M more...

So, is it safe to say that this year beside Ashfall, Frozen 2 won't face any mega-local breakout? (>50m)

Yeah, probably. I’m thinking 30s for Start-up. Forbidden Dream has D-01 PS of 56k, so it would need to get like a 98 Egg and have a pure legs run off the low opening it’ll get.    
 

That said, Ashfall has been having  a beastly run, I think it’s got at least a decent chance of being the 6th 10M+ movie from 2019.    
 

Cats reception quickly turned as awful as I speculated yesterday after the first couple hundred were surprisingly decent. Watching it fall off quickly should be fun, and good news for F2.

Frozen got about 66k today — I was worried that the night might be weaker on Christmas Eve, but it was actually unusually strong. Next two days should bring big numbers. Christmas CGV PS are 50k, and we should see another big PSm drop. My best guess is 150k, but take that a very rough #

SK is not really a Christian nation like in western country , therefore Christmas eve will play more like a Friday night.

Including Wednesday presales, this should be the hour where Frozen II ticked past 13M admits ❄️🔥🌪️ 🏔️ ❄️   
 

Possibly its last million mark, but I strongly suspect not at this point.    
 

Today seem to be headed for 165k or so, which is a huge day so late in its run. The way KOBIS presales are going I wonder if we will see all movies drop on Culture Day 🤣   
 

Speaking of movies and dropping, Cats is down to 71% egg. Although walkups have been very slow it will have another huge day, nearly 300k. Ashfall is going nuts and should comfortably clear 800k. Snow Queen: Mirrorlands will be sub 100k but it has a 98% at the moment, it’s amusing to me that we may see two sequels about snow queens do relatively well this winter.

This sentence does me a concern. No 14M anymore? 

Why movies drop on Culture day?
