Umm.....not quite sure about that........but i do expect NTTD to outgross SP in the UK.
Anyway first of all, this weekend Bond has got to fight off Venom 2 and that Michael Myers chap (the one with the knife...:)
I see Halloween Kills having a lesser box office in general, considering the film is also available for streaming via Peacock today, as well.
Going by the preview figures in the US, i'd imagine Halloween Kills with have a decent opening in North America.
Looks like it is tracking right along with what we were discussing earlier in the week. Should pick up $25 million and be right around the $100 million mark this weekend.
I think Halloween Kills is going to open strong even with the simultaneous streaming. Hopefully, Venom takes most of the hit and Bond is not as affected by the slasher audience. Though Halloween does trend a little older as does Bond. We shall see. Sticking to the solid weekend for Bond prediction.
I think you are right on F9 and Bond is going to outperform it domestically on the 2nd weekend. F9 took a big drop even with the holiday weekend. If Bond has a similar drop it would be a huge disappointment of around $18 million. I don't see that happening. On the other hand, F9's China numbers will crush Bond's. I think they both end up about the same worldwide and bet that Bond very slightly outperforms F9 when the run is over.
MI is more leggy than F9, but we don't have any pandemic numbers to consider. I expect it to have a pretty good run through the holidays and probably slightly outperform Bond, again fueled by a much bigger China take.
Ryan...........that's good news, enjoy the film. Just one thing as Canada is lumped in with the US for the North American gross............are just Canadian box office figures available to the general public?
On a side note, I think the upcoming video game and casting a younger actor (28-32) as Bond will go a long way in bridging the gap with younger audiences.
I'm not certain if Canadian specific figures are available. I've only ever seen them presented as the lumped in number, but perhaps one of our more seasoned members knows for sure. I'd be curious to see. Not that my local theatre represents all of Canada or anything, but I've yet to be in a showing that wasn't full or near full. It's nice to see!
NTTD is expected to gross $7-7.5mil Friday, and a possible $26-27mil weekend.
Plus, I got a free Heineken 007 glass!
I digress. Here's hoping for a strong weekend!
I'm also curious about the Canadian box office and how much more the earn per capita than in the US. I remember in the 2000s Tribute.ca used to post Canadian figures, but no such data available now.
The signs are in the Chop Choy, mate. Just keep looking for them. ;-)
Even though I'm not a fan of this one, only a fool will think NTTD will not do well at the BO. I expect it to make the big bucks in China too.
Without listening you can call it whining but every word and opinion is spot on.
I actually listened.
