Post subject: | Re: HK 2/16 WKD: Ant-Man 3 opens below Ant-Man 1 and 2 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Saturday: Ant-Man 3 did make it to 50,000 admissions, however, unlike previous Marvel films where all saw an extra blockbuster surcharge or a long running surcharge, this did not have any which means the average ticket price is very low for a Marvel film.
What makes this look even worse for Ant-Man 3's OW is that ticket prices are at its highest levels ever. Ant-Man had lower ticket prices but made up for it with admissions. Ant-Man 2 had the benefit of both higher ticket prices and Marvel marquee event anticipation. IMAX showings look OK. It has done weaker business on weekdays while stronger ticket sales have come in with weekend showings. I can see arguments either way to give it a full 2nd week extension, however, none of the 5 IMAX theaters have released Thursday schedules yet which might be a bad sign. With 4DX showings, Avatar: The Way of Water will take back 2 showtimes from Ant-Man 3 beginning on Monday at 1 theater. |

I had to wait for clarification from another site that publishes box office data and there seems to be some discrepancy on totals for top films. As a result, I have decided to disregard the totals from HK MPIA this week. Ant-Man 3 grosses over 2m in 5 days. While it is a major decline from Ant-Man 2's 5-day OW, compared to Ant-Man 3's OW from other international territories, it is not a bad OW. It also continues the consecutive number of Marvel films that have grossed 2m OW. The last Marvel film that failed to break 2m OW was Guardians of the Galaxy 2 back in 2017. A Guilty Conscience passes 100m HK. Avatar 2 might be able to slip past 144m HK.

Looks like Ant-Man 3 is headed for a -75% hold on its 2nd weekend from its 5-day OW. One of the worst 2nd weekend holds I've seen for a very wide release. In IMAX, at the fastest selling theater, it has sold about 120 tickets for the most coveted 3 PM showtime, however, at the slowest selling IMAX theater, both the 2:30 and 4:55 PM have seen 2 tickets sold apiece. |

Day 1 of pre-sales for Shazam 2 and it is looking horrid at most locations. IMAX pre-sales look bad and that performance extends into regular theaters. Back in 2019, Shazam opened to the tune of US$1.25m and US$1.48m with previews. Shazam 2 is looking like it's in danger of not making half of its opening weekend (minus previews). Meanwhile, after multiple Oscar wins, Everything Everywhere All at Once has seen a surge of admissions in the past 2 days. The Whale has also benefited from its main Oscar win with a bump in admissions. Avatar 2 got a reprieve at one theater despite sluggish sales at that location in the past week and it has seen a minor turnaround in admissions. |

Shazam 2's early weekend pre-sales don't look great either and one theater has already half downgraded Shazam 2 on Saturday with it sharing the biggest screen with Everything Everywhere All At Once. Other Thursday pre-sales Everything Everywhere All At Once - 655 The Whale - 320 Everything Everywhere All At Once was only playing in 6 theaters on Mon/Tues where it ranked 8th for the entire day, however, it returns to 10+ theaters on Thursday which should enable it to finish inside the top 5 this weekend if admissions continue like it has. The Whale also saw an increase in sales after Brendan Fraser's Oscar win and it is screening at more than 20 theaters this week. Ticket sales aren't as great as Everything Everywhere All At Once but it is one of the few films that moved admissions after the Oscars aired. |

Thursday Actuals Shazam 2 - $107,397 Everything Everywhere All At Once - $15,542 The Whale - $12,485 * Totals were not given for Everything Everywhere All At Once or The Whale. Shazam 2 is looking at an opening weekend of about $620,000 (-50% from Shazam's opening weekend without previews or -58% from Shazam's opening weekend including previews). I have it rebounding on Saturday and Sunday with a 50%+ increase from Friday and a minimal decrease on Sunday. Looking ahead to next week when John Wick 4 opens and so far it is looking very good in IMAX. Its busiest showing on the weekend is already 1/3 full with only 2 days of pre-sales so far. Other movies on the horizon are Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves on March 30 and The Super Mario Bros. Movie on April 5 (Wednesday). Mario is opening on Wednesday due to it being a holiday so its opening weekend will feature 3 holidays (Wednesday, Friday, Saturday). Monday April 10 is also a holiday so all in all, only one day in its first 6 days is not a holiday or a rest day. |

Post subject: | Re: HK 3/16 PROJ: Shazam 2 lowest OW for DC film in 14 years |
Shazam 2 is in danger of missing $500,000 this weekend after it decreased from opening day on Friday. It looks like it will make around $490,000 by Sunday. If it does miss $500,000, it would be the lowest opening weekend for a DC Comics film since Watchmen 14 years ago. [Jonah Hex did not receive a HK release.] It needs to beat $3,960,540 HK ($504,587 US) set by Wonder Woman 1984 to avoid this distinction. |

Finishing up last weekend's pre-sales
John Wick 4 opens today in HK. Here's how the series has evolved so far. John Wick - Opening weekend ($2,496,658 HK [$318,147 US]/Total ($4,622,638 HK) [$589,060 US] John Wick 2 - Opening weekend ($4,283,132 HK [$545,797 US]/Total ($12,129,322 HK) [$1,545,632 US]; 175,380 admissions John Wick 3 - Opening weekend (~$9,943,292 HK [$1,267,068 US]/Total ($23,748,602 HK) [$3,026,270 US]; 321,814 admissions With each sequel, there has been a sizable increase in total from its predecessor. Opening weekend seems to have exploded with the 3rd one making over 1m. The 3rd John Wick film saw an 83.5% increase in admissions. John Wick 4 has glowing reviews, increased ticket prices thanks to film length and Donnie Yen. Pre-sales so far are mixed with IMAX selling quite well but some regular theaters are very slow to sell tickets. All in all, I still see an opening weekend of about 1.5m.
________________________________________________ 2019 saw the #1 film of all time Avengers: Endgame selling 1,663,752 admissions. It beat out Toy Story 4 that year with 1,219,778 admissions and Spider-Man: Far From Home with 1,027,173. Actuals (through March 21) Avatar: The Way of Water - $144,188,704 HK ($18,373,884 US) A Guilty Conscience - $119,374,442 HK ($15,211,817 US) |

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is also getting special screenings this weekend. On Thursday, it began with 314 admissions in pre-sales. It will continue with its sneak previews today, Saturday and Sunday. Shazam 2 opening weekend - $3,782,726 HK ($482,060 US) Actuals have confirmed that Shazam 2 now has the lowest opening weekend for a DC film in 14 years. Thursday estimated actuals John Wick 4 - $292,756 Strong opening day for John Wick 4. It is on track for at least a 1.5m OW. With John Wick 4 occupying 2-4 screens this weekend, theater operators are anticipating this to break out.

Post subject: | Re: HK 3/23 PROJ: John Wick 4 lays down franchise OW record | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Talk is turning toward its legs and whether it will be the first film in the series to hit a 3 multiplier. The closest it came to doing it was John Wick 2 with a 2.83x multplier. Next week sees Dungeons & Dragons officially opening but it won't be a major challenger to John Wick 4's screens unlike Easter weekend when 4 films open. 2 of them (The Super Mario Bros. Movie and Over My Dead Body) will take the biggest screens away from John Wick 4, however, if it survives until it gets there, it will reap the rewards with 5 days playing like a holiday from Wednesday-Monday. Weekdays will be a struggle for JW4 with its long runtime similar to what Avatar 2 suffered earlier this year with weak weekdays but strong weekends. Some theaters only showed Avatar 2 on Saturday and Sunday for 4-5 weeks before they finally sent it packing for good. 4m should be considered a lock with its current trajectory so far and superb reviews. 5m is very possible but will be a challenge because competition is right around the corner. It's uncertain if John Wick 4 will retain IMAX screens on Easter weekend or if that will go to The Super Mario Bros. or Over My Dead Body. So far, Mario has showings at 2 IMAX theaters from Wednesday-Monday but full schedules have not been released yet. Opening weekend predictions for upcoming films D&D: Honor Among Thieves - $800,000 The Super Mario Bros. Movie - $2,000,000 (5-day) Over My Dead Body - $2,300,000 (6-day) |

Next week, major openers The Super Mario Bros. Movie and Over My Dead Body officially open. Early pre-sales for Mario look incredibly strong. Already 1 regular theater showing has sold more than 100 tickets and a few more regular showings have broken the 80 admissions mark. IMAX showings are doing well with the fastest selling IMAX theater already having one showing selling 233 tickets so far. The box office of animation films in recent years had given me pause as to how well Mario would do but pre-sales have proven that while some families will choose to wait for digital release, the power and branding of Mario cannot be denied. Over My Dead Body is a potential 5m+ grosser. It has very strong reviews so far. Pre-sales for this weekend's pre-sales look very good. Directed by the same director as The Sparring Partner, it has stars that have been in other recent hits such as Mama's Affair and Chilli Laugh Story. Early scheduling for this film have it on the 2nd biggest screen on Wednesday so theaters expect this to do very solid business over the holidays. Updated opening weekend predictions The Super Mario Bros. Movie - $3,100,000 (5-day) Over My Dead Body - $2,200,000 (6-day) |

Thursday Estimated Actuals John Wick 4 - $129,938 (-55.5%)/$2,191,115 Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves - $37,834 (opening day actual)/$125,479 John Wick 4 is looking at a 2nd weekend of about $915,000 (-41.7%). That would be a better hold than John Wick 3's 2nd weekend of about -48%. Dungeons & Dragons completely bombed. It probably won't make $400,000 even with previews included.

___________________________________________________________ Very interesting developments for the new openers on Wednesday. Broadway have dispersed their screens quite evenly with Super Mario Bros./Over My Dead Body/John Wick 4 all getting at least 1 screen or full day showtimes. Super Mario Bros. gets the biggest screen with Over My Dead Body/John Wick 4 sharing the 2nd largest screen. The rest are being shared among holdovers. MCL has Over My Dead Body ahead of John Wick 4 here but they both pale in comparison to Super Mario Bros. which is getting 3-4 screens. Emperor, like MCL has Mario way out in front with 2-3 screens. Theaters are split between Over My Dead Body and John Wick 4 for #2. Cinema City has Mario on 2 screens with John Wick in 2nd on 1 screen. Over My Dead Body is lagging behind new opener Air here. |

Dungeons & Dragons flopped. $500,000 will happen by Friday or Saturday.
Wednesday schedules Note: Due to the staggered release pattern for Easter weekend, showtimes in parentheses are from Tuesday. All holdovers are leaving Tuesday unless otherwise specified. GH
Pre-sales here have Mario out in front by a comfortable margin over everyone. MCL
Pre-sales have Mario wildly ahead of Over My Dead Body/John Wick 4 with one theater recording more than a 10:1 advantage for Mario in admissions so far on Wednesday. Broadway
Mario has been doing the best here in pre-sales, however, Over My Dead Body is also doing quite well. John Wick 4 looks quiet here. Cinema City
Mario is well ahead of Over My Dead Body and John Wick 4 here in pre-sales. |

Part 1 of Easter weekend pre-sales
To be honest, it's not great for any film. Though The Super Mario Bros. Movie is well out in front of Over My Dead Body and John Wick 4 at this theater, it hasn't really captured the adult market that loves certain Pixar films like Toy Story or Inside Out or The Incredibles. That is being reflected with its evening shows. Over My Dead Body looks pretty dead after 5 PM. John Wick 4, meanwhile, has a slight rebound after 9 PM but its 6 and 7 PM shows are ghost towns. Removing the blocked off seats for all films looks even worse for Over My Dead Body and John Wick 4, with Mario holding a 7:1 advantage in ticket sales over Over My Dead Body and 9.5:1 over John Wick 4. Final Easter weekend predictions 1. The Super Mario Bros. Movie - $3,200,000 (5-day) 2. Over My Dead Body - $1,500,000 (6-day, including previews) 3. John Wick 4 - $625,000 (-26.5%, 4-day)/3.9m 4. Air - $600,000 (6-day) |

Early Thursday schedules Same/Upgraded The Super Mario Bros. Movie Upgraded Over My Dead Body Downgraded John Wick: Chapter 4 Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves Air Mario continues to lead the field with the same or increased showtimes from Wednesday on Thursday. Over My Dead Body gets the nod for a bump in audience size, either from larger screens or more showings. Below the expected top 2, showtimes have been shaved from the remaining top holdovers and new opener Air. |

Part 2 of Easter weekend pre-sales
Over My Dead Body and John Wick 4 also picked up 144 and 136 admissions respectively from yesterday. While John Wick 4 is battling hard for #2 at this theater, other theaters see Over My Dead Body stomping over John Wick 4 by 2-3x in admissions.
With the meet and greet showings dropping off, Over My Dead Body's true number has finally revealed itself. Walk-ins have been very brisk from what I saw as one showing had as few as 10 admissions bought in pre-sales while final admissions for that showing coming in at 80. Decent for John Wick 4 though it will get its showings cut starting on Thursday. |

Part 3 of Easter weekend pre-sales
Comparison to Opening Wednesday's pre-sales from Monday Super Mario Bros: -41.5% from Super Mario Bros. Movie's Wednesday pre-sales taken on Monday Over My Dead Body: +20.2% from Over My Dead Body's Wednesday pre-sales taken on Monday John Wick 4: -11.4% from John Wick 4's Wednesday pre-sales taken on Monday Now part of Over My Dead Body's increase and John Wick 4's drop can be explained. As Over My Dead Body got bigger screen sizes and more showings, it got more blocked off seats added to its pre-sales total here. For example, the 286 seater actually contains 12 blocked off seats that are always listed as 'sold' unless if the theater decides to open up those seats (usually at the last minute). John Wick 4's slight drop was partly due to decreased showings and smaller houses. Smaller houses have less blocked off seats that theaters put out. What can't be explained though is Mario's 40% drop from Day 1's pre-sales taken on Monday. It got more showtimes, so more blocked off seats added to its total. Using only true admissions, Mario and Dead Body's holds are better than what only actual admissions tells us while John Wick 4's worse. Currently, Mario has a 4.5/5 rating to Over My Dead Body's 4.3/5, however, expect Mario's rating to drop over the coming weeks as critic reviews are meh and most animation films tend to start high and then sink lower as the weeks go by. Dead Body's rating already includes more than 80+ reviews compared to Mario's 11 so its rating won't fluctuate that much as many people have already seen it and commented. As far as pre-sales are concerned, theaters were definitely right to give the biggest screen to Over My Dead Body at night. Although it is losing 3:1 to Mario in the morning, it is winning over Mario by at least 3:1 at night. |

Post subject: | Re: HK 4/5 WED: Mario grabs records; biggest 2023 OD | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Deadline wrote: Hong Kong kicked off with $700K on Wednesday across 62 locations, claiming the biggest opening day of 2023, the biggest opening day for any Universal animation, and the biggest April animation opening day ever. This is in line with the opening Thursday of Minions, and above the opening Thursdays of Incredibles 2, Beauty and the Beast and Toy Story 4 Usually when figures from Deadline are posted, it is typically overestimated. From this figure, it could mean Mario grossed anywhere from $600-700k. Toy Story 4 is not a fair comparison as it led off with massive sneaks before opening day. Incredibles 2 opened in July 2018 after schools were let out for the summer. It opened to 4.7m HK ($598,000 US). A more encouraging sign is that it came in similar to Minions' OD. That made at least $675,000 OD.
I may or may not update later today with more accurate estimates. |
