Theater Averages: Late Night Gets Off to an Early Start

June 13th, 2019

Late Night

2019 set a new record on the theater average chart, as Late Night got off to the fastest start for a limited release so far earning an average of $61,576 in four theaters during its opening weekend. This is better than Echo in the Canyon managed just two weeks ago, although Avengers: Endgame still owns the overall record with an average of $76,601. The Last Black Man in San Francisco also did incredibly well with an average of $33,610 in seven theaters. This Ones for the Ladies was well back with an opening of $13,688 in one theater. Meanwhile, the overall number one film, The Secret Life of Pets 2, was the final film in the $10,000 club with an average of $10,229. More...

Limited and VOD Releases: Will it be Good Night for Limited Releases?

June 7th, 2019

Late Night

Late Night should be the biggest box office hit of the week with an already scheduled wide expansion next weekend. However, it isn’t the only film that has a chance to do well. The Last Black Man in San Francisco is also earning some strong buzz, while there are a number of documentaries vying for audiences this week. More...

International Box Office: Aladdin is the Jewel of the International Chart

May 29th, 2019

Aladdin

Aladdin opened with $121.0 million in 54 markets earning first place on the international chart. Add in its three-day domestic debut and it had a global opening of $212.5 million at the end of business on Sunday. The film’s biggest market was China, where it managed $18.92 million over the weekend, earning first place along the way. It was also number one in the U.K. with $8.97 million and it topped the chart in Mexico with $8.78 million. The latter is more impressive, given the relative size of the two markets. On the downside, the film was expensive to make and it only has one major market left to debut in (Japan), so it will need long legs to break even in a timely fashion. More...
