Our DVD and Blu-ray sales estimates are based on weekly retail surveys, which we use to build a weekly market share estimate for each title we are tracking. The market share is converted into a weekly sales estimate based on industry reports on the overall size of the market, including reports published inMedia Play News.
For example, if our weekly retail survey estimates that a particular title sold 1% of all units that week, and the industry reports sales of 1,500,000 units in total, we will estimate 15,000 units were sold of that title. The consumer spending estimate is based on the average sales price for the title in the retailers we survey.
We refine our estimates from week to week as more data becomes available. In particular, we adjust weekly sales figures for the quarter once the total market estimates are published by theDigital Entertainment Group. Figures will therefore fluctuate each week, and totals for individual titles can go up or down as we update our estimates.
Because sales figures are estimated based on sampling, they will be more accurate for higher-selling titles.
Full financial estimates for this film, including domestic and international box office, video sales, video rentals, TV and ancillary revenueare available through our research services at a cost. For more information, please contact us atresearch@the-numbers.com.

Weekend Wrap-Up: Hustlers Helps Box Office Thrive
September 17th, 2019
-5-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
It: Chapter Two andHustlers both topped expectations by large margins over theweekend and that helped the overall box office earn $110 million. Granted, this is 20% lower thanlast weekend; however, this was also 2.2% higher than the same weekendlast year and that is by far the more important detail. 2019 is still behind 2018, but the gap closed by a little bit and is now at 5.9% or $500 million at $7.98 billion to $8.48 billion. Fortunately, the international box office is doing better and overall 2019 is merely mediocre and it still has time to improve.More...
Friday Estimates: Hustlers Helps the Box Office Get Lucky on Friday the 13th
September 14th, 2019
-3-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
Hustlers didsurprisingly well to earn first place onFriday with an estimated $13.1 million. This puts it on pace for $32 million over the full weekend, which is more than enough for the biggest opening inSTX Entertainment’s history and the biggest live-action opening inJennifer Lopez’s career. It is not that far behindCrazy Rich Asians’ five-day opening and will also beConstance Wu’s best opening. There’s more good news: The film’sreviews are the best in the top ten at 87% positive and STX Entertainment has tended to have a lot of success giving their films long legs. TheBad Moms franchise is evidence of that. On the downside, the movie only managed a B minus from CinemaScore, but it is a dark comedy and those can be divisive. Additionally, while it earned first place on Friday, it won’t stay there for long.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up: It Dominates the Chart, Maybe Reinvigorates the Box Office
September 10th, 2019
-7-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
It: Chapter Two dominated the box office by almost as large a margin asexpected. It certainly did well enough that I’m considering it a victory. It earned $91.06 million over theweekend, which is almost exactly what the total box office madelast weekend. More importantly, it is almost as much as the top five made this weekendlast year, giving the weekend box office a massive increase of 48% from last weekend to $136 million and more importantly, this was 12% more than the same weekend last year. 2019 is still behind 2018 by a massive margin of $500 million or 6.0% at $7.83 billion to $8.33 billion. However, we did catch up to 2017’s ticket sales pace, so as long as we can maintain this pace for the rest of the year, it won’t look like a disaster at the end of the year.More...
Weekend Estimates: Chapter Two is Number Two on September Chart
September 8th, 2019
-6-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
It: Chapter Two is missingexpectations with an estimated openingweekend of $91.0 million. However, while this is 10% lower than predicted, it is still more than enough to earn second place on theSeptember chart. In fact, it is nearly 70% higher than the third biggest September debut of all time,The Nun, which opened this weekendlast year. That’s really going to help the year-over-year comparison. As for the film’s long-range chances, they are mixed. Horror movies rarely have long legs and this is also true of sequels, so horror sequels almost never do well long-term. Additionally, this film’sreviews are much weaker than thefirst film’sreviews, but on the positive side, it did match its predecessor when it came to the CinemaScore, as both earned B plus ratings.More...
Friday Estimates: It on Pace for Second-Best September Debut
September 7th, 2019
-5-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
It: Chapter Two isn’t living up topredictions or itspredecessor, but it is still on pace to become one of the best September debuts of all time. The film pulled in $37.4 million onFriday, putting it on pace for just over $90 million over the full weekend. It is going to have shorter legs that the original had, thanks in part to the Sequel Effect, but also due to itsweakerreviews. On the positive side, it matched the original’s B plus from CinemaScore, so that’s a good sign.More...
Thursday Night Previews: It Slips, Still on Pace for Monster Opening
September 6th, 2019
-4-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
It: Chapter Two earned $10.5 million during its previews last night. This is the second best previews in September, behind the originalIt, which earned $13.5 million. I was expecting the gap to be a closer than that. If the two films had the same legs, thenChapter Two would earn $96 million over the full weekend. However, this is probably asking too much for a number of reasons. Firstly, sequels tend to have shorter legs. Secondly, this film’sreviews are weaker than thereviews earned by the first film. Finally, previews forChapter Two started two hours earlier than they did for the first film, starting at 5 pm instead of 7 pm.Warner Bros. is projecting an opening weekend of $85 million based on this result, but studios tend to underestimate these things so it looks like the movie overperformed. I think just over $90 million is more likely.More...
Weekend Predictions: It is All We Got
September 5th, 2019
-3-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
It’s going to be a short prediction column, because there’s not much to talk about.It: Chapter Two is the only wide release of the week and there weren’t even any wide releaseslast weekend to giveIt any real competition. In fact, two of the likely top five films have already been in theaters for more than a month.last year,The Nun led the way with $53.81 million.It: Chapter Two could double that during its opening weekend.More...
Home Market Releases for January 9th, 2018
January 9th, 2018
-2-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
Usually this is a terrible time of year on the home market, because it is too late for the summer blockbusters, but too early for the holiday hits. However, the home market is terrible this week, becauseIt comes out and it destroyed records at the box office and is scaring away nearly all of the competition. Fortunately, itsreviews were very good, so it is a contender for Pick of the Week. Its main competition are two classics,Inherit the Wind andYoung Mr. Lincoln. All three are worth picking up, but I’m giving the title toIt, because of its wider appeal.More...
Home Market Releases for December 19th, 2017
December 19th, 2017
By this time next week, Christmas will be over. This resulted in a short list, but not a bad week.Dunkirk is the biggest new release of the week and it is award-worthy and a contender for Pick of the Week. It isn’t the only contender,The Amicus Collection,Stronger,A Town Called Panic: The Collection, and others are too. As for the best of the best, I went withThe Tragically Hip: A National Celebration onDVD or Blu-ray.More...
International Box Office: Kingsman Retakes Gold with $48.7 million
October 26th, 2017
Kingsman: The Golden Circle returned to top spot with $48.7 million in 61 markets for totals of $250.3 millioninternationally and $344.9 millionworldwide. Nearly all of the film’s weekend haul came from China, where the movie earned $39.15 million over the weekend for a total opening of $39.83 million. This is almost double what theoriginal opened with in this market, meaningKingsman: The Golden Circle could top the original’s international numbers making a third film in thefranchise almost a sure thing.More...
International Box Office: Never Say Die Falls, but Still Wins with $30 million
October 19th, 2017
-1-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
Never Say Die remained in first place on the international chart with $30 million over the weekend for a three-week total of $281 million. Almost all of that has come from China, where it made $29.74 million this weekend for a total of $278.99 million. By the end of the weekend, it was less than $1 million away from overtakingMeet the Fockers as the biggestComedy hit in any one single market. It got there on Monday.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up: Death Day Made the Box Office Happy with $26.04 million
October 17th, 2017
Happy Death Day led theweekend, asexpected, but did so with a surprisingly strong $26.04 million. The only other truly wide release of the week wasThe Foreigner, which also beat expectations, albeit by a smaller margin. The overall box office still fell fromlast weekend, down 4.2% to $100 million. This is 1.4% higher than the same weekendlast year. On the one hand, this is not enough to compensate for inflation. On the other hand, at this point, any win is worth celebrating. Year-to-date, 2017 is still behind 2016 by a large margin, but at least it was able to close the gap by a little bit at $410 million / 4.7% at $8.34 billion to $8.75 billion.More...
Thursday Night Previews: Should Happy Death Day be Happy with $1 million
October 13th, 2017
Happy Death Day started its box office run with $1 million during its previews. This is a mere fraction of whatIt earned earlier this fall, but it is better than the $772,000Ouija: Origin of Evil earned this time last year. IfHappy Death Day earns the same legs, then it will pull in about $18 million this weekend. Itsreviews are not asgood, but it is also not a sequel, so those two factors should balance out. This is exactly what wepredicted, so I’m happy with this result. Since the film only cost $5 million to make and likely less than $20 million to advertise, thestudio should also be happy.More...
Weekend Predictions: Will Happy Day be the Death of the Box Office?
October 12th, 2017
I thought this would be a really busy weekend withBlade Runner 2049 repeating in first place and four wide releases competing for spots in the top five. However, last weekend,Blade Runner 2049 missed expectations, so it won’t dominate the chart this weekend. Meanwhile, two of the four wide releases are not going to open truly wide. This leavesHappy Death Day with a relatively easy path to first place.The Foreigner has almost made enough in China to pay for its production budget, so as long as it can cover its advertising budget here, it will break even before it reaches the home market. Meanwhile,Professor Marston & The Wonder Women is opening semi-wide andMarshall is opening nationwide. They may or may not open in the top ten. This weekendlast year,The Accountant opened in first place with close to $25 million, while all three wide releases combined made $38 million. It is going to be tough for 2017 to match that.More...
International Box Office: Never Say Die Comes Alive with $66.28 million
October 12th, 2017
Never Say Die rose to first place with $67 million over the weekend for a two-week total of $223 internationally. The film added $66.28 million to its running tally in its native China, which now sits at $222.75 million after nine days of release. The film is on track to topKung Fu Yoga as the biggest comedy hit in China. In fact, it is on pace to topMeet the Fockers as the biggestComedy hit in any one single market.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up: Blade Runner Tops Chart with $32.75 million, but is it Enough?
October 10th, 2017
October started on a soft note with none of the new releases meetingexpectations over theweekend.Blade Runner 2049 led the way with $32.75 million, which would have been fine, had the movie not cost $155 million to make. (That’s $185 million on the screen, $155 million cost for the studio, after you take into account tax breaks, etc.) NeitherThe Mountain Between Us, norMy Little Pony: The Movie made much of an impact at the box office, but at least neither of them bombed. The biggest news wasIt hitting $300 million. Overall, the box office did climb compared tolast weekend, growing 16% to $105 million. This is just 1.2% higher than the same weekendlast year, but at this point, a win is a win. Year-to-date, 2017 is 5.1% or $440 million behind 2016 at $8.19 billion to $8.64 billion. We really needed a big win this weekend to put a dent in that number. Unless November and December are really big months, 2017 has already lost the year-over-year competition.More...
Weekend Estimates: Blade Runner Stumbles Out the Gate
October 8th, 2017
AfterIt smashed theSeptember weekend record a month ago, further proving that films can open huge at any time of the year, prospects looked great for the long-awaited sequel toBlade Runner. Its trailers had created positive buzz, the early reviews were very favorable, and there was little by way of competition. The bar it needed to cross to break the record,Gravity’s $55.8 million wasn’t even all that high. But something went wrong on the way to the multiplex.More...
Friday Estimates: What Happened? Blade Runner Struggles with $12.7 million
October 7th, 2017
I wasbullish aboutBlade Runner 2049’s chances for a number of reasons. It was setting October records for pre-sales on a number of sites. Itsreviews were over 90% positive. Itspreviews were a little stronger than expected, so everything was looking up. ThenFriday happened. The film only pulled in $12.7 million on Friday, which is well below expectations. This is not a case of critics loved it, but the audiences didn’t, as it scored an A minus from CinemaScore. Perhaps not enough of the target audience even remembers the originalBlade Runner and that’s why this movie is struggling. A lot of people thought it had a shot at $50 million this weekend but now $35 million is likely out of reach. $33 million is more likely at this point.More...
Weekend Predictions: Can Blade Runner Sprint to the Finish?
October 5th, 2017
September ended on a slow note, but it looks like October will open fast.Blade Runner 2049 has been setting October pre-order records for a few sites, but it will also need strong walk-up sales in order to actually break theOctober weekend record, currently held byGravity, with $55 million. I don’t think that’s likely, but at this point I would be shocked if it didn’t land in the top ten weekends for the month.The Mountain Between Us looks more and more like busted Oscar-bait. Its reviews have fallen from just over 70% positive to under 50% positive. As I started writing this,My Little Pony: The Movie still hadno reviews, which is almost worse than bad reviews. (Reviews are starting to trickle in.) Finally there’sVictoria and Abdul, which is expanding. It isn’t expanding wide, or even semi-wide; however, it should still earn a spot in the top ten. This weekendlast year,The Girl on the Train opened with $24.54 million.Blade Runner 2049 could earn twice that. If 2017 does win in the year-over-year comparison, then it will be on the back ofBlade Runner 2049.More...
International Box Office: Kingsman Remains Golden with $50.5 million
October 4th, 2017
Kingsman: The Golden Circle remained in first place on the international chart with $50.5 million in 77 markets for totals of $125.97 millioninternationally and $192.61 million worldwide. The film dominated the South Korean market with $11.89 million on 1,677 screens over the weekend for a total opening of $16.49 million there. It also debuted in first place in Mexico, with a less impressive $2.28 million. The film has yet to open in France, China, and Japan, so it should continue to rake in the money.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up: Kingsman Wins Three-Way Race with $16.94 million
October 3rd, 2017
The top three films on theweekend box office chart landed in the same order aspredicted; however, it was a much closer race than most thought it would be.Kingsman: The Golden Circle ended up on top with $16.94 million, just ahead ofIt with $16.90 million. The best new release of the week wasAmerican Made with $16.78 million. The other new releases struggled, to be kind, withFlatliners earning a distant fifth place andTil Death Do Us Part opening in ninth place. Overall, the box office fell 23% fromlast weekend to just $90 million. It was also 21% lower than the same weekendlast year, thus ending 2017’s mini-winning streak. Year-to-date, 2017 has earned $8.06 billion, putting it 4.8% or $410 million behind last year’s pace.More...
Weekend Estimates: Threeway Tie at the Top
October 1st, 2017
Warner Bros. is claiming a weekend win at the box office forIt as of this morning, but whichever way you slice it, we have a threeway tie at the top of the chart, based on Sunday morning estimates. In fact, we might have a rare weekend where three different movies will top the daily chart.American Madetook a lead on Friday with a $6.17 million opening day,It won on Saturday with around $7.9 million, and the eventual result for the weekend will depend on whetherKingsman: The Golden Circle wins on Sunday, and by how much. As of this morning,Kingsman is projected to make $17 million,American Made $17.02 million, andIt (a slightly optimistic, for my money) $17.3 million. We’ll know the real winner on Monday morning, andIt probably has a slight edge.More...
Friday Estimates: American Makes it an Exciting Race with $6.1 million
September 30th, 2017
American Made topped the box office chart onFriday with $6.1 million. This is a little better thanpredicted and certainly better thanpreviews were suggesting it would make. Its85% positive reviews should result in long legs. On the other hand, its B plus from CinemaScore is the definition of average. It could grab first place with just over $16 million, but it is not the only film on pace to earn that much this weekend.More...
Weekend Predictions: How Will September End? With A Whimper.
September 28th, 2017
It looks like September will end with a whimper, as there are three wide releases, none of which are expected to be midlevel hits.American Made should have no trouble being the biggest of the three new releases, but it has a less than 50/50 chance of earning first place.Flatliners’ buzz started out quiet and it failed to grow by any significant margin. It looks like it will open below $10 million. Finally there’sTil Death Do Us Part, which may or may not manage a spot in the top ten. 2017’s mini-winning streak looks to be over, as this weekendlast year had two films earning more than $20 million,Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children andDeepwater Horizon. This year, there will likely be none.More...
International Box Office: Kingsman King of the World with $61.18 million
September 28th, 2017
Kingsman: The Golden Circle made its international debut and it was mostly really good news, as it topped the chart with $61.18 million on 11,623 screens in 64 markets. Its biggest market was the U.K., where it earned $11.40 million on 602 screens. This is a massive improvement over the $6.4 million itspredecessor opened with. Likewise, this film earned $6.01 million on 1300 screens in Russia, up from $3.5 million for the first film. It wasn’t able to grow that much in Australia, but it did increase its haul to $4.56 million on 405 screens, up from $3.22 million on 372 for the original film. The film has yet to open in France, South Korea, China, and Japan, so this is a great start. It very likely won’t have the same legs, but even so, $400 million worldwide is a solid milestone to aim for, given this start.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up: Kingsman Earns Gold with $39.02 million
September 26th, 2017
Theweekend box office was good, for a September weekend, but disappointing compared toexpectations.Kingsman: The Golden Circle did earn first place, but with only $39.02 million. Granted, this is great for September, but $10 million less than our prediction, and our prediction wasn’t even on the high end of expectations.The Lego Ninjago Movie struggled in third place with $20.43 million. The shine has come off theLego franchise. Fortunately,It continues to be strong and that helped the overall box office. We saw 5.6% growth fromlast weekend reaching $117 million. This is also 13% higher than the same weekendlast year, so there’s clearly reason to celebrate. 2017 is still behind 2016 in the year-to-date comparison, but it closed the gap to 4.7% or $390 million at $7.94 billion to $8.33 billion.More...
Weekend Estimates: Kingsman Circles $39 Million
September 24th, 2017
The fine line between mere popularity and capturing the zeitgeist (or going viral, to use a slightly more up-to-date term) is shown in this weekend’s box office results.Kingsman: The Golden Circle, a decently-reviewed sequel to a very popular franchise-starter, will pick up a very respectable $39 million this weekend. That’s a shade better than theoriginal film made on its opening weekend, and a pretty satisfying result for all concerned. With good business expected overseas (we don’t have an official estimate yet), the film should cruise to profitability overall, and will most likely top $100 million domestically. It would also have counted as thefourth-best opening weekend in September, were it not for the behemoth zeitgeist-capturer,It.More...
Friday Estimates: Kingsman Not Quite Golden with $15.33 million Opening Day
September 23rd, 2017
Kingsman: The Golden Circle opened on the low end ofexpectations with $15.33 million onFriday. This puts it on pace for just under $40 million over the full weekend. This is a little more than the $36.21 million theoriginal managed back in 2015. This film has earnedweakerreviews, but both films earned a B plus from CinemaScore. Still sequels tend to have shorter legs, so getting much past $100 million domestically will be difficult. This is not good news for a film that cost $104 million to make. I don’t think there will be a third film in thefranchise, not unless it shows some growth internationally.More...
Thursday Night Previews: Kingsman Pulls in $3.4 million in Golden Debut - Updated
September 22nd, 2017
Asexpected,Kingsman: The Golden Circle had the best previews, earning $3.4 million last night. Theoriginal film opened with $1.4 million during its previews; however, this is not a good predictor for two reasons. Firstly, that was two years ago, which is a lifetime ago in terms of previews. Secondly, it was at a different time of year and previews are very dependent on time of year. Perhaps a closer comparison would beThe Magnificent Seven, as that film earned $1.75 million this weekendlast year, on the way to $67 million. However,Kingsman: The Golden Circle earnedweakerreviews and it has a younger target audience, so it will likely have worse legs. In fact, it could have worse legs thanIt did, which would leave the film with just $31 million during its opening weekend. I was expecting about $4 million last night, so unless its legs are better, it won’t match its prediction. That said, just over $40 million is still good and if it can merely match its predecessor’s legs, then it will break even sometime during its home market run.More...
Weekend Predictions: Will the New Releases Earn Gold?
September 21st, 2017
There are three wide releases coming out this week, which is one more than anticipated.Kingsman: The Golden Circle is widely expected to earn first place during the weekend, butThe Lego Ninjago Movie is widely expected to have longer legs and that could give it the win overall. Meanwhile,Friend Request is just hoping to earn a spot in the top five. It’s not a sure bet that it will. Meanwhile,It will relinquish first spot and fall to third place, but still earn a ton of money. This weekendlast year, the one-two punch ofThe Magnificent Seven andStorks helped the overall box office pull in $104 million. The top three films this year should earn more than that, to give 2017 another win. It will still take a lot to recover, but this result at least makes that possible.More...
International Box Office: War Comes to China and earns $61.07 million
September 21st, 2017
War for the Planet of the Apes returned to the top of the chart earning $62.9 million in 21 markets for totals of $287.9 millioninternationally and $433.8worldwide. The film debuted in first place in China with $59.66 million over the weekend for a total opening of $61.07 million.More...
Theater Averages: Brad Challenge’s the Status Quo with $22,480
September 20th, 2017
Brad’s Status led the way on the theater average chart with an average of $22,480 in four theaters.It was the only holdover in the $10,000 club earning an average of $14,490. The only other member of the $10,000 wasEx Libris: The New York Public Library, which earned $10,926 in one theater over the weekend and $16,308 from Wednesday through Sunday. It won’t expand significantly, because it is a documentary, but thedistributor should be very happy with this result.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up:It Eats the Competition
September 19th, 2017
-1-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
It beatexpectations again, earning $60.10 million over theweekend, which would have been an amazing opening weekend for a film that cost $35 million to make.American Assassin did okay, given its budget, whilemother! struggled. Overall, the box office fell fromlast weekend, which is not surprising, givenIt’s monster opening last weekend. A decline of 32% is stark, but a weekend haul of $111 million is still great for this time of year. Compared to this weekendlast year, 2017 won by a 24%, which is fantastic. Year-to-date, 2017 is still way behind by $410 million or 5.0% at $7.79 billion to $8.20 billion. However, 2017 has cut into 2016’s lead by $90 million in just two weeks, so you can’t complain about that.More...
Weekend Estimates: It Continues to Dominate as Openers Flounder
September 17th, 2017
-13-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
It continues to be a powerhouse at the box office this weekend with a second-weekend $60 million expected byWarner Bros., off a very respectable 51% from its opening. Remarkably, that would comfortably have been thebest weekend in September, were it not for the film’s $123 million opening last weekend. It’s already the highest-grossing film ever released in September, and should make it easily to $300 domestically.More...
Friday Estimates: It still has it with $19.2 million on Friday
September 16th, 2017
-12-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
Asexpected,It dominatedFriday with $19.2 million. Its running tally is $177.91 million after just 8 days of release, putting it in top spot on the all-timeSeptember chart. It looks to be on pace for $57 million over the full weekend, which is even better than expected, giving it a running tally of over $210 million. A 55% decline is excellent in this day and age, especially for a horror film, as the genre tends to have shorter legs. This will make it the 8th film released in2017 to get to $200 million. It will also become only the fourth horror film to get to $200 million and just the 16th R-Rated film to reach that milestone. Furthermore, while next week’s competition is stronger, it is currently on pace to reach $300 million domestically, which is more than most people originally predicted it would earn worldwide. Perhaps this means we will be getting a big-budgetAt the Mountains of Madness adaptation after all. Previously, no studios wanted to make a big-budget R-rated horror movie, but this film proves they can be profitable.More...
Weekend Predictions: Will the New Releases AssassinateIt? No.
September 15th, 2017
There are two wide releases debuting this week:American Assassin andmother! Neither is expected to matchIt at the box office. In fact, both combined won’t matchIt’s sophomore stint. Neither will earn as much in total asIt does over just this weekend. This weekendlast year,Sully led the way with $21.65 million, while thethreenewreleases earned about $26 million combined.It should earn more than those four films earned combined, giving 2017 its second massive win in a row.More...

New at The Numbers: Monthly Milestones, Record of Records, and Happy Holidays
September 14th, 2017
-10-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
Here atThe Numbers, we strive to improve your reading experience by adding more features we believe you will find interesting. Today, we have three new features to talk about, one of which is really timely. We recentlymentionedmost $100 million movies per year, while this week we announcemost $100 million movies per month. This looks at all of the movies that earned more than $100 million, or $200 million, $300 million, etc. and what month of the year they debuted. It should come as no surprise thatMay,June, andDecember are at the top. Nor it is a surprise thatJanuary,April andSeptember are at the bottom. The biggest surprise on this list isCrocodile Dundee, which is the biggest box office hit ever released in September, for now. No movie that has opened in September has ever earn more than $175 million, for now.Crocodile Dundee wasn’t expected to be a big hit, because it had two mostlyunknownleads, hence the September release date. Despite this, it opened in first place, where it remained for two months, and it didn’t fall out of the top ten for nearly six. This is the kind of legs you never see any more. In fact, it is impressive for a film to stay in the top ten for two months and still be in theaters after six. However, all good things must come to an end andCrocodile Dundee is about to be overtaken byIt, which is re-writing the September record book. Speaking of breaking records...More...

Theater Averages: Box Office Has AllIt can Handle with $30,076
September 13th, 2017
-9-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
It was the only film to earn more than $10,000 on the theater average chart this pastweekend. It dominated the competition with an average of $30,076, which is the third best average for a wide release this year, behindBeauty and the Beast ($41,508) andGuardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 ($33,704). The only limited release that came close to the $10,000 mark wasRebel in the Rye, which earned an average of $9,492 in four theaters.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up:It Jump Starts Box Office with $123 million
September 11th, 2017
-8-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
Historically, theweekend after the Labor Day long weekend is one of the worst weekends of the year. That is not the case this year. In fact, this year, this weekend was historic in a much more positive sense of the word.It broke tons of records, some of which were more esoteric. It demolished the records for biggestSeptember weekend box office, biggest horror weekend, Biggest R-rated day, biggest opening weekend for aStephen King, etc. All of this led to the weekend box office more than doublinglast weekend’s total earning $163 million. This is also 62% higher than the same weekendlast year. A change this severe usually only happens when there is a misalignment in holidays. I’ve been saying that a lot over the past few weeks; however, this has been due to a massive decline, so it is nice to be unabashedly positive for once. Year-to-date, 2017 is still well behind 2016 at $7.63 billion to $8.08 billion. 2017 did close the gap and it is now 5.6% or $450 million behind last year’s pace. If the movie industry can close the gap by this much each week, then it will take till Halloween before it has caught up in terms of dollars and would take until nearly Christmas to catch up in terms of ticket sales.More...
Weekend Estimates: It Smashes September Record with $117 Million Weekend
September 10th, 2017
-7-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
Not for the first time, reports of the death of North American film-going have been greatly exaggerated. In fact, if it’s possible for one film to change the perception of the entire market,It is pretty much, well,it. With an opening expected to be around $120 million—Warner Bros. is saying $117.15 million, although that’s due in part to caution around the effects of Hurricane Irma; the actual figure could be closer to $125 million, depending on how the storm plays out—the film breaks all sorts of records by a huge margin.More...
Friday Estimates:It is Already Rewriting the Record Book with $51 million Friday
September 9th, 2017
-6-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
It was widelyexpected to earnthe biggest September weekend box office of all time. In fact, many were expecting it to crush the old record. However, almost no one expected this. The film earned an estimated $51 million onFriday, which is more than the previous record holder,Hotel Transylvania 2, earned during its entire opening weekend. September is traditionally a weak time to open a movie, but this is in the top 30 biggestopening Fridays of all-time. There is some bad news here, as the film isn’t expected to have long legs. While thereviews remain stunning, the film only managed a B plus from CinemaScore. This is better than most horror movies earn, but it suggests average legs, at best. There is a small chance the film will earn less over the rest of the weekend than it earned on Friday, but I think that’s being a bit too pessimistic. I would put its range at between $100 million and $125 million. There’s a large margin of error, because we are in unprecedented territory here. It goes without saying that the sequel is already in the works. Box office watchers will get to play amateur casting agents for a little while, but I suspect some big names will be cast as the adults for part two.More...
Thursday Night Previews:It Scares the Pants of Deadpool with $13.5 million
September 8th, 2017
-5-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
I wasworried the extended box office slump would hurtIt’s box office numbers, but it appears the opposite is true and moviegoers were just waiting for a big release. (On a side note, while “It’s” is grammatically correct, I’m so used to being paranoid about “its” vs. “it’s” that it looks wrong.) Anyhoo,It pulled in $13.5 million in previews, setting the record for best previews for an R-rated film, overtakingDeadpool’s previous best of $12.7 million. Where does it go from here? I don’t know is the only accurate answer. Previews haven’t been standard for long enough to be an accurate gauge, especially when they are on the extremes like this. It could become the first September release to earn $100 million during its opening weekend. Anything less than $75 million will be seen as a disappointment after this result. It all depends on its legs and that depends on whether or not itsreviews will be a bigger factor than pre-release hype. I’m choosing to be cautiously optimistic. I’m not betting on $100 million, but $90 million is a reasonable goal at the moment.More...
Weekend Predictions: DoesIt Have What it Takes to Rescue the Box Office?
September 7th, 2017
-4-News.jpg&f=jpg&w=240)
The weekend after the Labor Day long weekend is usually one of the worst weekends of the year. However, that’s not the case this year. In fact, this could be the best weekend in about two months.It is widely expected to dominate the box office. In fact, there are some who think it will earn much more than the rest of the box office combined. That would be great news for the overall box office numbers. On the other hand,Home Again is only expected to earn around $10 million; however, it reportedly only cost $15 million to make, so that’s not a bad opening. This weekendlast year, the biggest new release wasSully with just over $35 million, whileWhen the Bough Breaks did okay in a counter-programming role pulling in $14 million. Overall, the box office earned $101 million and ifIt lives up to the hype, it will help 2017 win in the year-over-year competition by a significant degree.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up: Labor Day Bounce Helps Bodyguard Pull In $10.54 million
September 6th, 2017
The lastweekend of the summer had no new wide releases, so it made sense that the box office would drop even further. However, that was not the case. I think the combination of the last long weekend of the summer and terrible recent box office results led a lot of people to go to the movies one last time before school starts. After all, it is likely most moviegoers haven’t seen a movie in theaters for several weeks.The Hitman’s Bodyguard easily led the way with $10.54 million over three days and $13.27 million including Monday. It earned more over three days than any of its competitors earned over four. Overall, the box office rose 9.8% fromlast weekend to $76 million. Sadly, this is still 24% lower than the same weekendlast year, but it could have been worse. Year-to-date, 2017 has pulled in $7.45 billion, which puts it 6.3% or $500 million behind last year’s pace.More...
Friday Estimates: Hitman Guards the Box Office with $2.43 million
September 2nd, 2017
Expectations for this weekend were really low. They were so low that when I sawThe Hitman’s Bodyguard had earned $2.43 million onFriday, I was pleasantly surprised. That’s only 20% lower than last Friday and the holiday should boost its three-day legs, helping it earn just over $9 million. It’s on pace for $12 million over four days for a running tally of over $55 million. That’s enough forLionsgate’s share to cover its entire $30 million production budget.More...
2017 Preview: September
September 1st, 2017
As bad asJuly was,August actually managed to be worse. 2017 was over $300 million behind 2016’s pace during August alone. That’s worse than the rest of the summer combined. The only film that was an unqualified hit wasAnnabelle: Creation, although there were a couple of other films that are doing well enough to be considered financial hits. There’s some good news and some bad news for this September. The month gets off to a slow start with no wide releases the first weekend, but there are three films opening during the rest of the month that are expected to top $100 million and all three should be better than the best August had to offer.It is expected to be the biggest hit of the month and is tracking to break the record for thebiggest September weekend. BothKingsman: The Golden Circle andThe Lego Ninjago Movie are expected to cross $100 million, although they are opening the same weekend, so that could hurt both of their chances. Meanwhile lastSeptember,Sully was the biggest release of the month earning $125.07 million.It should top that, whileKingsman: The Golden Circle andThe Lego Ninjago Movie won’t be too far behind. 2017 should cut the gap with 2016, but sadly only by a little bit.More...

Weekend Wrap-Up: Hustlers Helps Box Office Thrive
September 17th, 2019
It: Chapter Two andHustlers both topped expectations by large margins over theweekend and that helped the overall box office earn $110 million. Granted, this is 20% lower thanlast weekend; however, this was also 2.2% higher than the same weekendlast year and that is by far the more important detail. 2019 is still behind 2018, but the gap closed by a little bit and is now at 5.9% or $500 million at $7.98 billion to $8.48 billion. Fortunately, the international box office is doing better and overall 2019 is merely mediocre and it still has time to improve.More...
Friday Estimates: Hustlers Helps the Box Office Get Lucky on Friday the 13th
September 14th, 2019
Hustlers didsurprisingly well to earn first place onFriday with an estimated $13.1 million. This puts it on pace for $32 million over the full weekend, which is more than enough for the biggest opening inSTX Entertainment’s history and the biggest live-action opening inJennifer Lopez’s career. It is not that far behindCrazy Rich Asians’ five-day opening and will also beConstance Wu’s best opening. There’s more good news: The film’sreviews are the best in the top ten at 87% positive and STX Entertainment has tended to have a lot of success giving their films long legs. TheBad Moms franchise is evidence of that. On the downside, the movie only managed a B minus from CinemaScore, but it is a dark comedy and those can be divisive. Additionally, while it earned first place on Friday, it won’t stay there for long.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up: It Dominates the Chart, Maybe Reinvigorates the Box Office
September 10th, 2019
It: Chapter Two dominated the box office by almost as large a margin asexpected. It certainly did well enough that I’m considering it a victory. It earned $91.06 million over theweekend, which is almost exactly what the total box office madelast weekend. More importantly, it is almost as much as the top five made this weekendlast year, giving the weekend box office a massive increase of 48% from last weekend to $136 million and more importantly, this was 12% more than the same weekend last year. 2019 is still behind 2018 by a massive margin of $500 million or 6.0% at $7.83 billion to $8.33 billion. However, we did catch up to 2017’s ticket sales pace, so as long as we can maintain this pace for the rest of the year, it won’t look like a disaster at the end of the year.More...
Weekend Estimates: Chapter Two is Number Two on September Chart
September 8th, 2019
It: Chapter Two is missingexpectations with an estimated openingweekend of $91.0 million. However, while this is 10% lower than predicted, it is still more than enough to earn second place on theSeptember chart. In fact, it is nearly 70% higher than the third biggest September debut of all time,The Nun, which opened this weekendlast year. That’s really going to help the year-over-year comparison. As for the film’s long-range chances, they are mixed. Horror movies rarely have long legs and this is also true of sequels, so horror sequels almost never do well long-term. Additionally, this film’sreviews are much weaker than thefirst film’sreviews, but on the positive side, it did match its predecessor when it came to the CinemaScore, as both earned B plus ratings.More...
Friday Estimates: It on Pace for Second-Best September Debut
September 7th, 2019
It: Chapter Two isn’t living up topredictions or itspredecessor, but it is still on pace to become one of the best September debuts of all time. The film pulled in $37.4 million onFriday, putting it on pace for just over $90 million over the full weekend. It is going to have shorter legs that the original had, thanks in part to the Sequel Effect, but also due to itsweakerreviews. On the positive side, it matched the original’s B plus from CinemaScore, so that’s a good sign.More...
Thursday Night Previews: It Slips, Still on Pace for Monster Opening
September 6th, 2019
It: Chapter Two earned $10.5 million during its previews last night. This is the second best previews in September, behind the originalIt, which earned $13.5 million. I was expecting the gap to be a closer than that. If the two films had the same legs, thenChapter Two would earn $96 million over the full weekend. However, this is probably asking too much for a number of reasons. Firstly, sequels tend to have shorter legs. Secondly, this film’sreviews are weaker than thereviews earned by the first film. Finally, previews forChapter Two started two hours earlier than they did for the first film, starting at 5 pm instead of 7 pm.Warner Bros. is projecting an opening weekend of $85 million based on this result, but studios tend to underestimate these things so it looks like the movie overperformed. I think just over $90 million is more likely.More...
Weekend Predictions: It is All We Got
September 5th, 2019
It’s going to be a short prediction column, because there’s not much to talk about.It: Chapter Two is the only wide release of the week and there weren’t even any wide releaseslast weekend to giveIt any real competition. In fact, two of the likely top five films have already been in theaters for more than a month.last year,The Nun led the way with $53.81 million.It: Chapter Two could double that during its opening weekend.More...
Home Market Releases for January 9th, 2018
January 9th, 2018
Usually this is a terrible time of year on the home market, because it is too late for the summer blockbusters, but too early for the holiday hits. However, the home market is terrible this week, becauseIt comes out and it destroyed records at the box office and is scaring away nearly all of the competition. Fortunately, itsreviews were very good, so it is a contender for Pick of the Week. Its main competition are two classics,Inherit the Wind andYoung Mr. Lincoln. All three are worth picking up, but I’m giving the title toIt, because of its wider appeal.More...
Home Market Releases for December 19th, 2017
December 19th, 2017

It isn’t the only contender,The Amicus Collection,Stronger,A Town Called Panic: The Collection, and others are too. As for the best of the best, I went withThe Tragically Hip: A National Celebration onDVD or Blu-ray.More...
International Box Office: Kingsman Retakes Gold with $48.7 million
October 26th, 2017
Kingsman: The Golden Circle returned to top spot with $48.7 million in 61 markets for totals of $250.3 millioninternationally and $344.9 millionworldwide. Nearly all of the film’s weekend haul came from China, where the movie earned $39.15 million over the weekend for a total opening of $39.83 million. This is almost double what theoriginal opened with in this market, meaningKingsman: The Golden Circle could top the original’s international numbers making a third film in thefranchise almost a sure thing.More...
International Box Office: Never Say Die Falls, but Still Wins with $30 million
October 19th, 2017
Never Say Die remained in first place on the international chart with $30 million over the weekend for a three-week total of $281 million. Almost all of that has come from China, where it made $29.74 million this weekend for a total of $278.99 million. By the end of the weekend, it was less than $1 million away from overtakingMeet the Fockers as the biggestComedy hit in any one single market. It got there on Monday.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up: Death Day Made the Box Office Happy with $26.04 million
October 17th, 2017
Happy Death Day led theweekend, asexpected, but did so with a surprisingly strong $26.04 million. The only other truly wide release of the week wasThe Foreigner, which also beat expectations, albeit by a smaller margin. The overall box office still fell fromlast weekend, down 4.2% to $100 million. This is 1.4% higher than the same weekendlast year. On the one hand, this is not enough to compensate for inflation. On the other hand, at this point, any win is worth celebrating. Year-to-date, 2017 is still behind 2016 by a large margin, but at least it was able to close the gap by a little bit at $410 million / 4.7% at $8.34 billion to $8.75 billion.More...
Thursday Night Previews: Should Happy Death Day be Happy with $1 million
October 13th, 2017
Happy Death Day started its box office run with $1 million during its previews. This is a mere fraction of whatIt earned earlier this fall, but it is better than the $772,000Ouija: Origin of Evil earned this time last year. IfHappy Death Day earns the same legs, then it will pull in about $18 million this weekend. Itsreviews are not asgood, but it is also not a sequel, so those two factors should balance out. This is exactly what wepredicted, so I’m happy with this result. Since the film only cost $5 million to make and likely less than $20 million to advertise, thestudio should also be happy.More...
Weekend Predictions: Will Happy Day be the Death of the Box Office?
October 12th, 2017
I thought this would be a really busy weekend withBlade Runner 2049 repeating in first place and four wide releases competing for spots in the top five. However, last weekend,Blade Runner 2049 missed expectations, so it won’t dominate the chart this weekend. Meanwhile, two of the four wide releases are not going to open truly wide. This leavesHappy Death Day with a relatively easy path to first place.The Foreigner has almost made enough in China to pay for its production budget, so as long as it can cover its advertising budget here, it will break even before it reaches the home market. Meanwhile,Professor Marston & The Wonder Women is opening semi-wide andMarshall is opening nationwide. They may or may not open in the top ten. This weekendlast year,The Accountant opened in first place with close to $25 million, while all three wide releases combined made $38 million. It is going to be tough for 2017 to match that.More...
International Box Office: Never Say Die Comes Alive with $66.28 million
October 12th, 2017
Never Say Die rose to first place with $67 million over the weekend for a two-week total of $223 internationally. The film added $66.28 million to its running tally in its native China, which now sits at $222.75 million after nine days of release. The film is on track to topKung Fu Yoga as the biggest comedy hit in China. In fact, it is on pace to topMeet the Fockers as the biggestComedy hit in any one single market.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up: Blade Runner Tops Chart with $32.75 million, but is it Enough?
October 10th, 2017
October started on a soft note with none of the new releases meetingexpectations over theweekend.Blade Runner 2049 led the way with $32.75 million, which would have been fine, had the movie not cost $155 million to make. (That’s $185 million on the screen, $155 million cost for the studio, after you take into account tax breaks, etc.) NeitherThe Mountain Between Us, norMy Little Pony: The Movie made much of an impact at the box office, but at least neither of them bombed. The biggest news wasIt hitting $300 million. Overall, the box office did climb compared tolast weekend, growing 16% to $105 million. This is just 1.2% higher than the same weekendlast year, but at this point, a win is a win. Year-to-date, 2017 is 5.1% or $440 million behind 2016 at $8.19 billion to $8.64 billion. We really needed a big win this weekend to put a dent in that number. Unless November and December are really big months, 2017 has already lost the year-over-year competition.More...
Weekend Estimates: Blade Runner Stumbles Out the Gate
October 8th, 2017
AfterIt smashed theSeptember weekend record a month ago, further proving that films can open huge at any time of the year, prospects looked great for the long-awaited sequel toBlade Runner. Its trailers had created positive buzz, the early reviews were very favorable, and there was little by way of competition. The bar it needed to cross to break the record,Gravity’s $55.8 million wasn’t even all that high. But something went wrong on the way to the multiplex.More...
Friday Estimates: What Happened? Blade Runner Struggles with $12.7 million
October 7th, 2017
I wasbullish aboutBlade Runner 2049’s chances for a number of reasons. It was setting October records for pre-sales on a number of sites. Itsreviews were over 90% positive. Itspreviews were a little stronger than expected, so everything was looking up. ThenFriday happened. The film only pulled in $12.7 million on Friday, which is well below expectations. This is not a case of critics loved it, but the audiences didn’t, as it scored an A minus from CinemaScore. Perhaps not enough of the target audience even remembers the originalBlade Runner and that’s why this movie is struggling. A lot of people thought it had a shot at $50 million this weekend but now $35 million is likely out of reach. $33 million is more likely at this point.More...
Weekend Predictions: Can Blade Runner Sprint to the Finish?
October 5th, 2017
September ended on a slow note, but it looks like October will open fast.Blade Runner 2049 has been setting October pre-order records for a few sites, but it will also need strong walk-up sales in order to actually break theOctober weekend record, currently held byGravity, with $55 million. I don’t think that’s likely, but at this point I would be shocked if it didn’t land in the top ten weekends for the month.The Mountain Between Us looks more and more like busted Oscar-bait. Its reviews have fallen from just over 70% positive to under 50% positive. As I started writing this,My Little Pony: The Movie still hadno reviews, which is almost worse than bad reviews. (Reviews are starting to trickle in.) Finally there’sVictoria and Abdul, which is expanding. It isn’t expanding wide, or even semi-wide; however, it should still earn a spot in the top ten. This weekendlast year,The Girl on the Train opened with $24.54 million.Blade Runner 2049 could earn twice that. If 2017 does win in the year-over-year comparison, then it will be on the back ofBlade Runner 2049.More...
International Box Office: Kingsman Remains Golden with $50.5 million
October 4th, 2017
Kingsman: The Golden Circle remained in first place on the international chart with $50.5 million in 77 markets for totals of $125.97 millioninternationally and $192.61 million worldwide. The film dominated the South Korean market with $11.89 million on 1,677 screens over the weekend for a total opening of $16.49 million there. It also debuted in first place in Mexico, with a less impressive $2.28 million. The film has yet to open in France, China, and Japan, so it should continue to rake in the money.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up: Kingsman Wins Three-Way Race with $16.94 million
October 3rd, 2017
The top three films on theweekend box office chart landed in the same order aspredicted; however, it was a much closer race than most thought it would be.Kingsman: The Golden Circle ended up on top with $16.94 million, just ahead ofIt with $16.90 million. The best new release of the week wasAmerican Made with $16.78 million. The other new releases struggled, to be kind, withFlatliners earning a distant fifth place andTil Death Do Us Part opening in ninth place. Overall, the box office fell 23% fromlast weekend to just $90 million. It was also 21% lower than the same weekendlast year, thus ending 2017’s mini-winning streak. Year-to-date, 2017 has earned $8.06 billion, putting it 4.8% or $410 million behind last year’s pace.More...
Weekend Estimates: Threeway Tie at the Top
October 1st, 2017
Warner Bros. is claiming a weekend win at the box office forIt as of this morning, but whichever way you slice it, we have a threeway tie at the top of the chart, based on Sunday morning estimates. In fact, we might have a rare weekend where three different movies will top the daily chart.American Madetook a lead on Friday with a $6.17 million opening day,It won on Saturday with around $7.9 million, and the eventual result for the weekend will depend on whetherKingsman: The Golden Circle wins on Sunday, and by how much. As of this morning,Kingsman is projected to make $17 million,American Made $17.02 million, andIt (a slightly optimistic, for my money) $17.3 million. We’ll know the real winner on Monday morning, andIt probably has a slight edge.More...
Friday Estimates: American Makes it an Exciting Race with $6.1 million
September 30th, 2017
American Made topped the box office chart onFriday with $6.1 million. This is a little better thanpredicted and certainly better thanpreviews were suggesting it would make. Its85% positive reviews should result in long legs. On the other hand, its B plus from CinemaScore is the definition of average. It could grab first place with just over $16 million, but it is not the only film on pace to earn that much this weekend.More...
Weekend Predictions: How Will September End? With A Whimper.
September 28th, 2017
It looks like September will end with a whimper, as there are three wide releases, none of which are expected to be midlevel hits.American Made should have no trouble being the biggest of the three new releases, but it has a less than 50/50 chance of earning first place.Flatliners’ buzz started out quiet and it failed to grow by any significant margin. It looks like it will open below $10 million. Finally there’sTil Death Do Us Part, which may or may not manage a spot in the top ten. 2017’s mini-winning streak looks to be over, as this weekendlast year had two films earning more than $20 million,Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children andDeepwater Horizon. This year, there will likely be none.More...
International Box Office: Kingsman King of the World with $61.18 million
September 28th, 2017
Kingsman: The Golden Circle made its international debut and it was mostly really good news, as it topped the chart with $61.18 million on 11,623 screens in 64 markets. Its biggest market was the U.K., where it earned $11.40 million on 602 screens. This is a massive improvement over the $6.4 million itspredecessor opened with. Likewise, this film earned $6.01 million on 1300 screens in Russia, up from $3.5 million for the first film. It wasn’t able to grow that much in Australia, but it did increase its haul to $4.56 million on 405 screens, up from $3.22 million on 372 for the original film. The film has yet to open in France, South Korea, China, and Japan, so this is a great start. It very likely won’t have the same legs, but even so, $400 million worldwide is a solid milestone to aim for, given this start.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up: Kingsman Earns Gold with $39.02 million
September 26th, 2017
Theweekend box office was good, for a September weekend, but disappointing compared toexpectations.Kingsman: The Golden Circle did earn first place, but with only $39.02 million. Granted, this is great for September, but $10 million less than our prediction, and our prediction wasn’t even on the high end of expectations.The Lego Ninjago Movie struggled in third place with $20.43 million. The shine has come off theLego franchise. Fortunately,It continues to be strong and that helped the overall box office. We saw 5.6% growth fromlast weekend reaching $117 million. This is also 13% higher than the same weekendlast year, so there’s clearly reason to celebrate. 2017 is still behind 2016 in the year-to-date comparison, but it closed the gap to 4.7% or $390 million at $7.94 billion to $8.33 billion.More...
Weekend Estimates: Kingsman Circles $39 Million
September 24th, 2017
The fine line between mere popularity and capturing the zeitgeist (or going viral, to use a slightly more up-to-date term) is shown in this weekend’s box office results.Kingsman: The Golden Circle, a decently-reviewed sequel to a very popular franchise-starter, will pick up a very respectable $39 million this weekend. That’s a shade better than theoriginal film made on its opening weekend, and a pretty satisfying result for all concerned. With good business expected overseas (we don’t have an official estimate yet), the film should cruise to profitability overall, and will most likely top $100 million domestically. It would also have counted as thefourth-best opening weekend in September, were it not for the behemoth zeitgeist-capturer,It.More...
Friday Estimates: Kingsman Not Quite Golden with $15.33 million Opening Day
September 23rd, 2017
Kingsman: The Golden Circle opened on the low end ofexpectations with $15.33 million onFriday. This puts it on pace for just under $40 million over the full weekend. This is a little more than the $36.21 million theoriginal managed back in 2015. This film has earnedweakerreviews, but both films earned a B plus from CinemaScore. Still sequels tend to have shorter legs, so getting much past $100 million domestically will be difficult. This is not good news for a film that cost $104 million to make. I don’t think there will be a third film in thefranchise, not unless it shows some growth internationally.More...
Thursday Night Previews: Kingsman Pulls in $3.4 million in Golden Debut - Updated
September 22nd, 2017
Asexpected,Kingsman: The Golden Circle had the best previews, earning $3.4 million last night. Theoriginal film opened with $1.4 million during its previews; however, this is not a good predictor for two reasons. Firstly, that was two years ago, which is a lifetime ago in terms of previews. Secondly, it was at a different time of year and previews are very dependent on time of year. Perhaps a closer comparison would beThe Magnificent Seven, as that film earned $1.75 million this weekendlast year, on the way to $67 million. However,Kingsman: The Golden Circle earnedweakerreviews and it has a younger target audience, so it will likely have worse legs. In fact, it could have worse legs thanIt did, which would leave the film with just $31 million during its opening weekend. I was expecting about $4 million last night, so unless its legs are better, it won’t match its prediction. That said, just over $40 million is still good and if it can merely match its predecessor’s legs, then it will break even sometime during its home market run.More...
Weekend Predictions: Will the New Releases Earn Gold?
September 21st, 2017
There are three wide releases coming out this week, which is one more than anticipated.Kingsman: The Golden Circle is widely expected to earn first place during the weekend, butThe Lego Ninjago Movie is widely expected to have longer legs and that could give it the win overall. Meanwhile,Friend Request is just hoping to earn a spot in the top five. It’s not a sure bet that it will. Meanwhile,It will relinquish first spot and fall to third place, but still earn a ton of money. This weekendlast year, the one-two punch ofThe Magnificent Seven andStorks helped the overall box office pull in $104 million. The top three films this year should earn more than that, to give 2017 another win. It will still take a lot to recover, but this result at least makes that possible.More...
International Box Office: War Comes to China and earns $61.07 million
September 21st, 2017
War for the Planet of the Apes returned to the top of the chart earning $62.9 million in 21 markets for totals of $287.9 millioninternationally and $433.8worldwide. The film debuted in first place in China with $59.66 million over the weekend for a total opening of $61.07 million.More...
Theater Averages: Brad Challenge’s the Status Quo with $22,480
September 20th, 2017
Brad’s Status led the way on the theater average chart with an average of $22,480 in four theaters.It was the only holdover in the $10,000 club earning an average of $14,490. The only other member of the $10,000 wasEx Libris: The New York Public Library, which earned $10,926 in one theater over the weekend and $16,308 from Wednesday through Sunday. It won’t expand significantly, because it is a documentary, but thedistributor should be very happy with this result.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up:It Eats the Competition
September 19th, 2017
It beatexpectations again, earning $60.10 million over theweekend, which would have been an amazing opening weekend for a film that cost $35 million to make.American Assassin did okay, given its budget, whilemother! struggled. Overall, the box office fell fromlast weekend, which is not surprising, givenIt’s monster opening last weekend. A decline of 32% is stark, but a weekend haul of $111 million is still great for this time of year. Compared to this weekendlast year, 2017 won by a 24%, which is fantastic. Year-to-date, 2017 is still way behind by $410 million or 5.0% at $7.79 billion to $8.20 billion. However, 2017 has cut into 2016’s lead by $90 million in just two weeks, so you can’t complain about that.More...
Weekend Estimates: It Continues to Dominate as Openers Flounder
September 17th, 2017
It continues to be a powerhouse at the box office this weekend with a second-weekend $60 million expected byWarner Bros., off a very respectable 51% from its opening. Remarkably, that would comfortably have been thebest weekend in September, were it not for the film’s $123 million opening last weekend. It’s already the highest-grossing film ever released in September, and should make it easily to $300 domestically.More...
Friday Estimates: It still has it with $19.2 million on Friday
September 16th, 2017
Asexpected,It dominatedFriday with $19.2 million. Its running tally is $177.91 million after just 8 days of release, putting it in top spot on the all-timeSeptember chart. It looks to be on pace for $57 million over the full weekend, which is even better than expected, giving it a running tally of over $210 million. A 55% decline is excellent in this day and age, especially for a horror film, as the genre tends to have shorter legs. This will make it the 8th film released in2017 to get to $200 million. It will also become only the fourth horror film to get to $200 million and just the 16th R-Rated film to reach that milestone. Furthermore, while next week’s competition is stronger, it is currently on pace to reach $300 million domestically, which is more than most people originally predicted it would earn worldwide. Perhaps this means we will be getting a big-budgetAt the Mountains of Madness adaptation after all. Previously, no studios wanted to make a big-budget R-rated horror movie, but this film proves they can be profitable.More...
Weekend Predictions: Will the New Releases AssassinateIt? No.
September 15th, 2017
There are two wide releases debuting this week:American Assassin andmother! Neither is expected to matchIt at the box office. In fact, both combined won’t matchIt’s sophomore stint. Neither will earn as much in total asIt does over just this weekend. This weekendlast year,Sully led the way with $21.65 million, while thethreenewreleases earned about $26 million combined.It should earn more than those four films earned combined, giving 2017 its second massive win in a row.More...
International Box Office: Spider-Man Swings into China with $70.63 million
September 14th, 2017
Spider-Man: Homecoming returned to the international top five earning first place with $71.82 million on 21,675 screens in 47 markets for totals of $495.74 millioninternationally and $823.43 millionworldwide. The film debuted in first place in China with $69.12 million on 20,440 screens over the weekend for a four-day opening of $70.63 million. This is already the biggest single market for the film, overtaking South Korea, where it has earned $51.51 million. At this point, the film will have no trouble getting to $900 million worldwide, but $1 billion is out of reach.More...
New at The Numbers: Monthly Milestones, Record of Records, and Happy Holidays
September 14th, 2017
Here atThe Numbers, we strive to improve your reading experience by adding more features we believe you will find interesting. Today, we have three new features to talk about, one of which is really timely. We recentlymentionedmost $100 million movies per year, while this week we announcemost $100 million movies per month. This looks at all of the movies that earned more than $100 million, or $200 million, $300 million, etc. and what month of the year they debuted. It should come as no surprise thatMay,June, andDecember are at the top. Nor it is a surprise thatJanuary,April andSeptember are at the bottom. The biggest surprise on this list isCrocodile Dundee, which is the biggest box office hit ever released in September, for now. No movie that has opened in September has ever earn more than $175 million, for now.Crocodile Dundee wasn’t expected to be a big hit, because it had two mostlyunknownleads, hence the September release date. Despite this, it opened in first place, where it remained for two months, and it didn’t fall out of the top ten for nearly six. This is the kind of legs you never see any more. In fact, it is impressive for a film to stay in the top ten for two months and still be in theaters after six. However, all good things must come to an end andCrocodile Dundee is about to be overtaken byIt, which is re-writing the September record book. Speaking of breaking records...More...

Theater Averages: Box Office Has AllIt can Handle with $30,076
September 13th, 2017
It was the only film to earn more than $10,000 on the theater average chart this pastweekend. It dominated the competition with an average of $30,076, which is the third best average for a wide release this year, behindBeauty and the Beast ($41,508) andGuardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 ($33,704). The only limited release that came close to the $10,000 mark wasRebel in the Rye, which earned an average of $9,492 in four theaters.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up:It Jump Starts Box Office with $123 million
September 11th, 2017
Historically, theweekend after the Labor Day long weekend is one of the worst weekends of the year. That is not the case this year. In fact, this year, this weekend was historic in a much more positive sense of the word.It broke tons of records, some of which were more esoteric. It demolished the records for biggestSeptember weekend box office, biggest horror weekend, Biggest R-rated day, biggest opening weekend for aStephen King, etc. All of this led to the weekend box office more than doublinglast weekend’s total earning $163 million. This is also 62% higher than the same weekendlast year. A change this severe usually only happens when there is a misalignment in holidays. I’ve been saying that a lot over the past few weeks; however, this has been due to a massive decline, so it is nice to be unabashedly positive for once. Year-to-date, 2017 is still well behind 2016 at $7.63 billion to $8.08 billion. 2017 did close the gap and it is now 5.6% or $450 million behind last year’s pace. If the movie industry can close the gap by this much each week, then it will take till Halloween before it has caught up in terms of dollars and would take until nearly Christmas to catch up in terms of ticket sales.More...
Weekend Estimates: It Smashes September Record with $117 Million Weekend
September 10th, 2017
Not for the first time, reports of the death of North American film-going have been greatly exaggerated. In fact, if it’s possible for one film to change the perception of the entire market,It is pretty much, well,it. With an opening expected to be around $120 million—Warner Bros. is saying $117.15 million, although that’s due in part to caution around the effects of Hurricane Irma; the actual figure could be closer to $125 million, depending on how the storm plays out—the film breaks all sorts of records by a huge margin.More...
Friday Estimates:It is Already Rewriting the Record Book with $51 million Friday
September 9th, 2017
It was widelyexpected to earnthe biggest September weekend box office of all time. In fact, many were expecting it to crush the old record. However, almost no one expected this. The film earned an estimated $51 million onFriday, which is more than the previous record holder,Hotel Transylvania 2, earned during its entire opening weekend. September is traditionally a weak time to open a movie, but this is in the top 30 biggestopening Fridays of all-time. There is some bad news here, as the film isn’t expected to have long legs. While thereviews remain stunning, the film only managed a B plus from CinemaScore. This is better than most horror movies earn, but it suggests average legs, at best. There is a small chance the film will earn less over the rest of the weekend than it earned on Friday, but I think that’s being a bit too pessimistic. I would put its range at between $100 million and $125 million. There’s a large margin of error, because we are in unprecedented territory here. It goes without saying that the sequel is already in the works. Box office watchers will get to play amateur casting agents for a little while, but I suspect some big names will be cast as the adults for part two.More...
Thursday Night Previews:It Scares the Pants of Deadpool with $13.5 million
September 8th, 2017
I wasworried the extended box office slump would hurtIt’s box office numbers, but it appears the opposite is true and moviegoers were just waiting for a big release. (On a side note, while “It’s” is grammatically correct, I’m so used to being paranoid about “its” vs. “it’s” that it looks wrong.) Anyhoo,It pulled in $13.5 million in previews, setting the record for best previews for an R-rated film, overtakingDeadpool’s previous best of $12.7 million. Where does it go from here? I don’t know is the only accurate answer. Previews haven’t been standard for long enough to be an accurate gauge, especially when they are on the extremes like this. It could become the first September release to earn $100 million during its opening weekend. Anything less than $75 million will be seen as a disappointment after this result. It all depends on its legs and that depends on whether or not itsreviews will be a bigger factor than pre-release hype. I’m choosing to be cautiously optimistic. I’m not betting on $100 million, but $90 million is a reasonable goal at the moment.More...
Weekend Predictions: DoesIt Have What it Takes to Rescue the Box Office?
September 7th, 2017
The weekend after the Labor Day long weekend is usually one of the worst weekends of the year. However, that’s not the case this year. In fact, this could be the best weekend in about two months.It is widely expected to dominate the box office. In fact, there are some who think it will earn much more than the rest of the box office combined. That would be great news for the overall box office numbers. On the other hand,Home Again is only expected to earn around $10 million; however, it reportedly only cost $15 million to make, so that’s not a bad opening. This weekendlast year, the biggest new release wasSully with just over $35 million, whileWhen the Bough Breaks did okay in a counter-programming role pulling in $14 million. Overall, the box office earned $101 million and ifIt lives up to the hype, it will help 2017 win in the year-over-year competition by a significant degree.More...
Weekend Wrap-Up: Labor Day Bounce Helps Bodyguard Pull In $10.54 million
September 6th, 2017
The lastweekend of the summer had no new wide releases, so it made sense that the box office would drop even further. However, that was not the case. I think the combination of the last long weekend of the summer and terrible recent box office results led a lot of people to go to the movies one last time before school starts. After all, it is likely most moviegoers haven’t seen a movie in theaters for several weeks.The Hitman’s Bodyguard easily led the way with $10.54 million over three days and $13.27 million including Monday. It earned more over three days than any of its competitors earned over four. Overall, the box office rose 9.8% fromlast weekend to $76 million. Sadly, this is still 24% lower than the same weekendlast year, but it could have been worse. Year-to-date, 2017 has pulled in $7.45 billion, which puts it 6.3% or $500 million behind last year’s pace.More...
Friday Estimates: Hitman Guards the Box Office with $2.43 million
September 2nd, 2017
Expectations for this weekend were really low. They were so low that when I sawThe Hitman’s Bodyguard had earned $2.43 million onFriday, I was pleasantly surprised. That’s only 20% lower than last Friday and the holiday should boost its three-day legs, helping it earn just over $9 million. It’s on pace for $12 million over four days for a running tally of over $55 million. That’s enough forLionsgate’s share to cover its entire $30 million production budget.More...
2017 Preview: September
September 1st, 2017
As bad asJuly was,August actually managed to be worse. 2017 was over $300 million behind 2016’s pace during August alone. That’s worse than the rest of the summer combined. The only film that was an unqualified hit wasAnnabelle: Creation, although there were a couple of other films that are doing well enough to be considered financial hits. There’s some good news and some bad news for this September. The month gets off to a slow start with no wide releases the first weekend, but there are three films opening during the rest of the month that are expected to top $100 million and all three should be better than the best August had to offer.It is expected to be the biggest hit of the month and is tracking to break the record for thebiggest September weekend. BothKingsman: The Golden Circle andThe Lego Ninjago Movie are expected to cross $100 million, although they are opening the same weekend, so that could hurt both of their chances. Meanwhile lastSeptember,Sully was the biggest release of the month earning $125.07 million.It should top that, whileKingsman: The Golden Circle andThe Lego Ninjago Movie won’t be too far behind. 2017 should cut the gap with 2016, but sadly only by a little bit.More...

Our DVD and Blu-ray sales estimates are based on weekly retail surveys, which we use to build a weekly market share estimate for each title we are tracking. The market share is converted into a weekly sales estimate based on industry reports on the overall size of the market, including reports published inMedia Play News.
For example, if our weekly retail survey estimates that a particular title sold 1% of all units that week, and the industry reports sales of 1,500,000 units in total, we will estimate 15,000 units were sold of that title. The consumer spending estimate is based on the average sales price for the title in the retailers we survey.
We refine our estimates from week to week as more data becomes available. In particular, we adjust weekly sales figures for the quarter once the total market estimates are published by theDigital Entertainment Group. Figures will therefore fluctuate each week, and totals for individual titles can go up or down as we update our estimates.
Because sales figures are estimated based on sampling, they will be more accurate for higher-selling titles.
Full financial estimates for this film, including domestic and international box office, video sales, video rentals, TV and ancillary revenueare available through our research services at a cost. For more information, please contact us atresearch@the-numbers.com.
