Emm, my email from SKY IS FALLING said:

House of Wax 350
The Pacifier 250

And i can't remember the rest. those are just rough guides though of course.


Some horror PTA's.

Boogeyman: £2,450
White Noise: £5,668
Ring Two: £5,011
Amityville Horror: £4,046
Creep: £2,458

So i'm thinking HOUSE OF WAX can manage £3,000 on at least 300 screens, for a £900,000 opening.

Weekend Numbers:

1. Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith $9,897,852 -49% TOTAL: $44,325,932
2. House of Wax $1,395,211 PTA: $4,605
3. The Pacifier $1,327,557 PTA: $3,793
4. Monster In Law $1,134,535 -45% TOTAL: $7,680,444
5. Kingdom Of Heaven: $567,428 -52% TOTAL: $12,787,221

Great opening for HOUSE OF WAX.

Apologies for the lack of updates, not having an internet connection is a killer!!

In the U.K., "Smith" posted a phenomenal $7.1 million, placing it ahead of "Star Wars: Episode III -- Revenge of the Sith." Other totals included Australia with $4.7 million;

£4.03million opening in the UK, fantastic!!!

Fantastic for War of the Worlds! almost double the opening of Batman Begins

Brilliant opening for WAR OF THE WORLDS. Really fantastic....i'v still not caught the film. will this weekend sometime hopefully.

House of Wax passed £3,000,000! Whooot! Beating FREDDY VS JASON.

Wow, that's really great for WOTW's.

UK just loves HP doesn't it. I wonder if HP4 can beat the record of POA?

Yuk.....

1 The Prisoner of azkaban 23,882,688
2 The Chamber of secrets 18,871,829
3 The Philosopher's stone 16,335,627


That makes me feel sick....

Yeah the UK loves HP opening week, goes downhill fast from there though :wink: and i can assure you, not one single pound of their grosses came from my pocket! :razz:

Likewise......bloody hate those films.

BUMP.

I assume this is the UK box office thread, right? I don't recall another one.

I'd completely forgotten about this thread!

I edited the title.

Variety seems to think Hellboy will be #1 this weekend. I'm still unsure. It may of had better previews than Get Smart but that might because the fan base of HB2 will already have rushed out to see it.

How's Wall-E doing?
