Is Queen the Bollywood movie?

Yes.

 

I can't believe they can charge different prices for different films?

 

Here, they have prices jacked up at the beginning of the movie's run and then as it loses showtimes, screens and audience it goes down.

I wish they do that here. It really depends on the film. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 saw a $5 increase from the normal 3D blockbuster (Captain America 2, etc.) but Transformers 4 ticket pricing strategy is a huge anomaly. I still cannot figure out how it is $20-25 more expensive than The Amazing Spider-Man 2.

 

I see HK and China have a different degree of excitement for TF4.

Mmmm...I'd say they are pretty similar.

 

unfortunately bluebomb did not post any updates for today.

 

Olive,

   Do you have any updates from HK. Normally we get real time updates from HK.

I don't post updates until the day is finished.

Very good number for Transformers 4. To nab nearly 50% as walk-ins for an almost 3 hour long movie is excellent IMO.

Transformers 4 opening day est. - $875,000 (non-holiday opening record)

Ticket prices being astronomically high will offset the lower admissions by Transformers 4. It will be close in terms of which movie gets the non-holiday opening record.

Maleficent and Z Storm held relatively well.

The gap in admissions is huge but Transformers 4 makes up for it with huge ticket price hikes.

Amazing for Transformers 4. Iron Man 3 barely increased with Friday pre-sales so +9% is a solid increase even with the 165 minute runtime.

Huge for Z Storm. This is getting great reviews here. Maleficent is still doing well.

Still a very good number for Transformers 4. It doesn't quite break the 1m record but it still wallops Iron Man 3's opening day.

Thursday Actuals (June 26)

1. Transformers 4 - $973,956 (opening day actual, 65,000 admissions)
2. Maleficent - $4,708,361 (almost 3,200 admissions)
3. Z Storm - $773,977 (4,000 admissions)
The Attorney - $38,698

Great opening day for Transformers 4. Maleficent is Angelina Jolie's 2nd biggest hit in HK. Whether or not it passes Kung Fu Panda 2 will be determined in the next few days. Good total for Z Storm. The Attorney is doing very well.

Time for something a bit different. Checking out Transformers 4 at iSQUARE in IMAX on Sunday, seats are filling up quickly. Incredible figures for Transformers 4. No 3 PM showtime seems to be little effect as those admissions have gone to either the 12 PM or 6 PM showtime. Even the midnight showing is selling quite a number of tickets.

It is also well back of Transformers 3 in admissions.

But what saves it is the high ticket prices.

Transformers: Age of Extinction est. $4,900,000

 

Quote:
Among the highlights, the film scored the biggest opening weekend of all-time in Hong Kong with $4.8 million

Variety confirms it is the biggest weekend of all time. This is with How to Train Your Dragon 2 sneaks running on Saturday/Sunday and Maleficent and Z Storm still getting showtimes.
