Love the Coopers led the new releases, but it is hardly what you would call a box office hit. Two of the three new releases missed expectations and expectations were low to begin with. There's not much in the way of good news to talk about, which is something that is becoming sadly common. Weekend Wrap-Up: New Releases feel Unloved James White was the only new release in the $10,000 club debuting with $12,007 in its lone theater. Brooklyn also expanded, going from five theaters to 23 theaters, while its per theater average remained strong with an average of $20,868. This is a great result for a film expanding from five to 60 theaters. This left Spotlight in first place with an average of $22,561 in 60 theaters. There was only one new release in the $10,000 club and it had to settle for third place on the per theater chart.
Per Theater Chart: James Can't Take the Spotlight Will the movie still be in theaters come New Year's Day? Maybe. It will need help from the holidays to get there. It is now the fourth biggest hit in that market, while it has a shot at overtaking Skyfall for first place. with $11.96 million in 617 theaters over the weekend for a three-week total of $118.39 million. The past weekend, the film opened in first place in China with $48.55 million. It will likely need $700 million to $800 million to keep the studio happy. $500 million worldwide is enough to save face, but the film will need reach at least $600 million worldwide to have a shot at breaking even any time soon. Spectre again dominated the international box office earning $152.6 million in 92 markets for totals of $413.1 million internationally and $542.1 million worldwide. International Box Office: Another Week, Another Milestone for Spectre Speaking of long legs, Brooklyn remained in the $10,000 for the third week in a row earning an average of $10,270 in just over 100 theaters. That's a good start, but its reviews suggest not so good legs. Legend was next with an average of $21,709 in four theaters. The overall box office leader, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2, was next with an average of $24,591. That's the third best average for an opening this year, just ahead of Ex Machina and just behind Sicario. Per Theater Chart: Carol Sings a Joyful TuneĬarol had a festive opening earning just over $250,000 in four theaters for an average of $63,378. The film's openings were lower than Part 1 managed in most markets (Germany and Latin American seem to be the biggest exceptions) but it is still doing well enough that it will break even before it reaches the home market. with $14.10 million in 941 theaters and in Germany with $13.42 million on 1,002. Its biggest market was China, but it only managed third place there with $16.11 million. The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2 easily won the box office race on the international chart with $146.0 million in 87 markets for a worldwide opening of $248.7 million. International Box Office: Hunger Nearly Cracks Quarter Billion The second wide release in the $10,000 club was The Good Dinosaur with an average of $10,444. Janis: Little Girl Blue earned an average of $10,931 in two theaters, which is great for a documentary. The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2 earned first place on the overall chart and third place on the per theater chart with an average of $12,456. The Danish Girl opened in a close second place with $46,830, also in four theaters.
This is 22% lower than the film's opening weekend average, which isn't bad for a limited release. Per Theater Chart: Carol's Second Verse is the Same as the FirstĬarol remained in first place on the per theater chart with an average of $49,443 in four theaters.
