Fine debut for Elegant Lies. It should do well for the next few weeks.

 

Monster took first place on Thursday and Friday, but tumbled after that due to bad WOM. (It's a really terrible movie anyway)

 

It seems Non-stop can get to 2m while 300: ROAE cannot.

 

Although it's not Slumdog Millionaire/The King's Speech level, I'm satisfied with 12 Years a Slave's run.

 

Noah is already on top of presales chart with 13,600 tickets. It may do huge next week.

How much do you think Noah can do?

How much do you think Noah can do?

 

Koreans like big scale movies with realistic special effects, as evidenced by the recent success of pompeii. unfortunately Noah is opening in one of the weakest months for SK box office. Also it'll be competing with CA:TWS a week later for similar demo of audience. If the Christian community get behind this like they did for passion of Christ it could boost it's numbers but reading the numerous articles floating around, I don't think noah stays true to the source material(bible) enough for that to happen. 

If it has a strong OW it could do somewhere around $15-20m

It's pretty crazy that Frozen isn't even on that list, opening with only $7.6M, and yet still had the insane legs to reach $76.6M total in SK. :excited:

It's a perfect 10x opening weekend score. Note that It's higher than all of top 20 openings multiplier.

Avatar was another leggy run that had a 11X multiplier

 

Yeah SK isn't like Japan, movies are a lot more front-loaded here and leggy runs are much harder to see. For many of the movies on that list their OW was like 50% of their total gross. This happens in the music industry too everything changes very quickly and trends don't last long.

Agree with you.

 

As for OW(4-day), I think 1m+ admissions/$7m+ is doable.
