As for the releases for the week, they are all amazing. It is going to be a very long three weeks. I was at their house for less than 30 minutes before stepping into a puddle of dog drool. I will be at my parents place for three weeks looking after their dog and cat. If you can read this, it means my transfer worked well enough and I can do work from my parents house while pet-sitting. The box office just needs to maintain its $380 million lead throughout the rest of the summer to be considered a success.īefore we talk about the weekend predictions. Year-to-date, 2016 has pulled in $7.43 billion, putting it 5.3% ahead of last year’s pace. Compared to the same weekend last year, the box office was 16% higher and that’s the most important number. Overall, the box office pulled in $172 million over the weekend, which is 25% smaller than last weekend. On the other hand, Sausage Party opened better than expected earning a solid second place.

The overall box office was a little weaker than expected with Suicide Squad falling nearly as fast as Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice did. Weekend Wrap-Up: Suicide Slumps to $43.54 million, Sausage Soars with $34.26 million The film wasn’t quite as potent in Mexico, but it still did well earning first place with $1.53 million over the weekend, which is the best opening in the franchise. Its total in China is already better than the lifetime totals for any other film in the franchise. The entire six day opening is included in the weekend number. The film earned first place in China with $23.96 million over the weekend for a six-day opening of $49.13 million. Jason Bourne returned to first place with $56.2 million on 10,247 screens in 62 markets for totals of $197.73 million internationally and $347.01 million worldwide. International Box Office: Bourne Bounces Back with $56.2 million The film is doing well enough that it should break even, eventually, but it is not a truly monster hit. It was not as strong in Brazil, where it earned $1.6 million on 479 screens. The film earned first place in China with a total opening of $30.92 million, including previews. Star Trek Beyond climbed into first place for the first time in its run with $37.0 million in 40 markets for totals of $131.1 million internationally and $285.4 million worldwide. International Box Office: Trek Makes Return Trip to International Chart with $37.0 million That said, Don’t Think Twice is the best and the Blu-ray is our Pick of the Week. The Secret Life of Pets is by far the biggest release of the week.

There are a few releases on this week’s list that are worth picking up. Home Market Releases for December 6th, 2016 Unfortunately, the film was such a massive hit at the box office that it scared away all of the competition and there’s no real Pick of the Week films on this week’s list. It’s not bad and the DVD or Blu-ray Combo Pack hav enough extras to be worth picking up, but that’s not enough to put it over the top. Unfortunately, Beauty and the Beast isn’t really Pick of the Week material. Summer is usually the slowest time of the year on the home market however, this week we have the biggest theatrical hit of the year so far coming out.
THE JASON BOURNE MOVIES IN ORDER UPDATE
Figures will therefore fluctuate each week, and totals for individual titles can go up or down as we update our estimates.īecause sales figures are estimated based on sampling, they will be more accurate for higher-selling titles. In particular, we adjust weekly sales figures for the quarter once the total market estimates are published by the Digital Entertainment Group. We refine our estimates from week to week as more data becomes available. The consumer spending estimate is based on the average sales price for the title in the retailers we survey. The market share is converted into a weekly sales estimate based on industry reports on the overall size of the market, including reports published in Media Play News.įor 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. 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.
