I think it’s possible for Avengers Invinity War to gross $100+ million in South Korea.

Given the current ticket price of IMAX, that's 7M admissions! Although once standard tickets release, then we'll need more like 12M admissions. Possible but could be difficult.

 

Highest Hollywood is Avatar with 13.3M adm. and $116m

 

Next is Ultron with 10.5M adm. and $82.9m

 

So definitely possible, but will need good WOM and lots of repeat viewings.

Ultron had a huge jump seven days before the release
what do you expect in the next days for AIW?

I'd expect a slightly slow increase until standard tickets release, then an explosion. As Olive said, only IMAX and 4DX available at the moment, which is why avg. ticket price is so high.

 

I genuinely think this is gonna explode

It should be possible for AIW to reach 12 million admissons. Ultron’s WOM wasn’t great in South Korea and what i can remember it legs wasn’t great either. 

 

I think AIW will have a record opening and great WOM in South Korea and it will have great legs.

[fabiopazzo2]

depends of the quality of the film 

 

@feasby007 yes, maybe a small increase in the next days until the presale in 2D

AOU doubled previous day on Day-07 when 2D presell started.

Oh that’s an explanation  . 

So what you expect? 30M opening weekend?

Increased 44,412 yesterday, and increase a little more with 44,648 today. That's a good sign, especially since 2D is not released yet I don't think.

 

Also now the weekend has finished, all other films have very little presales in comparison, hence the large % share for AIW.

[gfb]

AIW seems to be increased in its daily total today. 253.868 total with 50 minutes left in the day. About 14k more than previous two days.

as mentioned by @gfb, the increase is increasing! 60k increase compared to ~45k to past two days. Fantastic result.

 

Now at where CW was 3 days prior and where AoU was 6 days prior. I think it should eclipse 1m in presales - Insane!

Pretty sure it is. Ticket price average is still far too high for 2D tickets to be out. Plus CW and AoU saw 2.5x as many tickets sold the day 2D came out compared to the previous day.

 

@Proxima Olive should be able to confirm though

Some theaters that don't have 4D/IMAX have scheduled 2D shows

What you expect for JW in SK?

What you expect for JW in SK? 

JW did about 1.9m adm in first 4 days, then ended with 5.5m. Had a -40% roughly 2nd weekend drop which was a sign of good WOM.

 

My expectations for #2 are to likely open just as big but only do maybe 3-4m adm. If it explodes again (which is possible but unlikely) then it could beat #1 in adm.

 

As with everything though, it's very early to tell anything accurate at all
