You don't think it will open higher than White Noise? hmmm i thought it might open a little higher than that, maybe £2million, i don't know, the preview screening i went to tonight was sold out on the biggest screen, the showing before and after were both sold out too. |

While i did enjoy the movie, i was slightly let down by it... but by no means as much as people have been saying round here. There were some good set pieces, loved the bathroom scene! and the line from Watts at the end. But thats all it seemed to be, set piece... plod along a bit.... set piece. It just didn't flow and wasn't that scary. I gave it a C+ in the end, much better than White Noise/Hide and Seek etc though. |

'Ring Two' Tops U.K. Box Office |
Author: | Andrew [ Mon Apr 04, 2005 5:39 am ] |
Post subject: | |
Thanks xiayun The Will Smith romantic comedy held the second spot in the United Kingdom with $2.2 million in its fifth weekend (off 32%), just behind "The Ring Two's" $3.4 million opening, lifting "Hitch's" U.K. cume to $26.9 million. So the Ring 2 opens with $3.4million (£1.87million) which is just a tiny bit under expected i suppose, somewhat underwhelming, only just beating White Noise's opening of £1.78Million. |

Weekend Actuals April 1 - 3 (£'s) 1 The Ring two 2,062,792 NEW 2 Be cool 1,196,884 NEW 3 Hitch 1,073,241 -35 4 Robots 998,046 -32 5 Valiant 921,359 -16 6 Miss.Congeniality 2 695,395 -47 7 Constantine 500,554 -49 8 Hostage 263,451 -4 9 The Downfall 163,413 NEW 10 Pooh's heffalump movie 136,473 -28 11 Melinda and melinda 93,935 -27 12 Maria full of grace 66,674 -21 13 Meet the fockers 51,599 -51 14 The Chorus 51,032 -36 15 Mickybo and me 49,475 +3 The Ring 2 was slightly underestimated, nice to see it go over £2million. Some great drops in the top 15, the kids movies held well, but most surprising is Hostage, fantastic drop of only 4% in week 4. Also nice to see the limited releases making the top 15, The Chorus, Mickybo and Me, Melinda and Melinda, Maria full of Grace & Downfall all had a screen count less than 65, compared to The Rings 2's 419. Downfall managed the 4th best screen average of the weekend, followed in 5th by Maria Full of Grace showing on only 24 screens. |

Pheeew. Glad THE RING TWO topped £2,000,000. I predicted £2.2M on the site. so i wasn't too far off. I think easter holidays are going to help THE RING TWO and give it a drop below 60%. Maybe 50%. Nice opening, Surprisingly GREAT word of mouth over here. I seen it yesterday, and i really enjoyed it |

Some new BBFC ratings announced: Cursed "15" :Contains strong horror Because Of Winne Dixie "U": Contains infrequent, mild bad language Guess Who "12A" : Contains moderate sex references and mild racial jokes Sin City "18": Contains strong bloody violence Glad to hear SIN CITY got the 18 rating! It shouldn't affect the BO gross, as both KILLBILLS were 18. It will just make the movie cooler! Coming this week soon should be THE AMITYVILLE HORROR Im PRAYING for an 18. |

THE AMITYVILLE HORROR is just a "15" Over in the UK. Other recent "15" rated horror movies: Cursed White Noise Hide and Seek Boogeyman The Ring Two So. Amityville's so called "HARD R RATING" is more like these pg13 films. Than say FREDDY VS JASON'S, SAW's and TEXAS CHAINSAW's "R" ratings. Ah well......We'll see on Friday. |

That just sucks so much! i had great hopes for Amityville, and they just went down quite a lot. I'll still see it opening weekend, i'm just disappointed by this. At least we still have Sin City.... |

All Reuters Movie News 'Sahara' Reigns in U.K.; 'Pacifier' Tops in Oz Sunday April 10 11:29 PM ET "Sahara" burned up screens in the United Kingdom, "The Pacifier" swiped the top spot in Australia, "The Ring Two" distracted Italians from the pope's funeral, and "The Interpreter" translated well in its first international territory, Greece, according to weekend estimates. "Sahara" opened day and date with the U.S. in Britain, taking the No. 1 spot there in the face of significant distractions including Prince Charles' marriage to Camilla Parker Bowles and the funeral of Pope John Paul II, taking approximately $2.6 million (including $448,000 in previews) from 400 cinemas. This beat "The Ring Two" in its second week, which dropped a huge 47% to a little more than $2 million from 422 cinemas. "Hitch" made a weekend total of $7.6 million on 3,880 screens in 56 markets, hoisting the cume to $160.6 million. The romantic comedy starring Will Smith opened at No. 1 in Thailand with an excellent $420,000 on 52 screens. The film's ongoing power is evident in the cumes in holdover territories after six weeks: $31.5 million in Germany (off 19%), $29.9 million in the United Kingdom (off 24%), $10.5 million in Australia (off 39%) and $8.6 million in Spain (off 37%). Reuters/Hollywood Reporter from http://movies.yahoo.com/mv/news/va/20050410/111320097100.html So Saraha takes about £1.41million, and the Ring 2 dropped 47% (which i would hardly call huge as in the report above - i would say thats quite a good drop for the genre with bad WOM) to £1.1million. Pretty much as expected really. |

Emmm....47% is great... It's totally not huge. Surprised it fell under 50%. Nice |

After a very poor opening of $2million, Valiant is doing great. It almost hit a 6 multiplier after 3 weeks. Drops of 17% and 2% this past weekend. It total right now stands near $12million. I think it could get upto $18-21m. |

Post subject: | |
Yeah Valiant is doing well, which is weird, because i'v heard nothing other than "it's shite" Basically. Ring Two falls less than BOOGEYMAN and HIDE AND SEEK. Under 50% (not including previews), nice. AMITYVILLE will be number 1 next week |

Valiant is a beast, Ive never seen a film perform that great, unless it were an older film that came out in the before the 90s, and a few exteme films from the 90s. Wow, BJ gives congrats =D> |
