If not, is it worth picking up, even with the double-dips? Home Market Releases for March 22nd, March 21st, This week, there are not many releases to talk about and one of them, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2 , is dominating the list so much that I could ignore the rest of the list and very little of substance would be lost.
I'm not going to do that, but I could. In fact, three of the five films that have the best shot at box office success in January are The Force Awakens , The Hateful Eight , and The Revenant , all of which opened in December. There are two true January releases that could also do really well, for this time of year: Ride Along 2 and Kung Fu Panda 3.
The rest of the releases are just hoping to become midlevel hits. Its success could prevent from being ahead in the year-over-year comparison by the end of the month, but this year does have better depth.
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 2 remained in first place for the fourth weekend in a row, which is terrible news for the box office. A film repeating on top happens a lot, but to get to four weeks in a row, it means the new releases have been particularly weak. That was the case this week, as In the Heart of the Sea had to settle for second place with well below expectations. This is 7. Had In the Heart of the Sea merely matched predictions, then would have won in the year-over-year competition.
That, however, is unimaginable riches compared to the performance of Heart of the Sea. December 10th, There's only one wide release this week, In the Heart of the Sea , although some sources still have Legend expanding nationwide. Of course, expanding nationwide doesn't mean the same thing as expanding truly wide. Because In the Heart of the Sea doesn't have any real competition this weekend, it is widely expected to earn first place, but it isn't expected to be a smash hit. It is very unlikely it will do as well as last year 's number one film, Exodus: Gods and Kings.
The depth is a little better this year, but will still likely struggle to match in the year-over-year comparison. On the other hand, its biggest market overall has been the U. There are rumors that Lionsgate are working on prequels for this franchise. Not sure that's a good idea. Krampus is providing the industry with some surprise post-Thanksgiving, pre-Holiday cheer this weekend, with an opening well ahead of expectations amongst a crowd of slightly disappointing results. The weekend after Thanksgiving is historically a really bad time of the year at the box office.
This year there is only one wide release risking it, Krampus. However, this is one more wide release than we had this week last year.
There is also a semi-wide release coming out, The Letter , but its reviews are terrible and its box office chances might be even worse. In fact, the top three will likely remain the same as last weekend. Fortunately, the holdovers this year are stronger than the holdovers last year, so should win in the year-over-year comparison.
Its biggest market overall is the U. November 25th, Creed should have the best opening weekend of the franchise.
Meanwhile, Victor Frankenstein is just hoping for a spot in the top five. I don't think it will get there. Both new releases from last year failed to meet expectations, so that gives a real shot at coming out on top of the year-over-year comparison. The Curse of the High Expectations strikes again. This should be a reason to celebrate, but it marks a very steep decline from previous films in the Hunger Games franchise.
The other two wide releases, The Night Before and Secret in Their Eyes , both failed to meet expectations , leaving the overall box office softer than anticipated. Year-to-date, is still ahead of by a comfortable margin of 3. It would take a sizable collapse for to not come out on top in terms of raw box office dollars. Why disappointing?
It might be more than the combined weekend hauls of the rest of the top five, in fact. It is the curse of high expectations. Does this mean Part 2 is going to open on the low end of expectations? It's too soon to tell.
Previews are not very predictive of box office success, especially when the numbers are this close. Obviously bigger would be better, but there's no reason to panic just yet. November 20th, On the other hand, the other two releases are The Night Before and Secret in Their Eyes , neither of which is expected to do particularly well. That said, they would have to truly bomb to not at least make the top five, but I doubt either of them will top Spectre over the weekend. That is the figure Part 2 will need to match to be considered a success.
I'm feeling cautiously optimistic, but not everyone is. October has come to an end and everyone should be happy about that. Except for The Martian , there were no serious hits that opened last month. There are a huge number of new releases on Amazon this week. Unfortunately, they go from Oscar contenders to stuff that would be filler on a slow week really, really quickly, so I will be skipping over most of them.
Almost half of the releases on this week's list are contenders for Pick of the Week, so it is really hard to narrow that list. The Hunger Games franchise has come to a close. The final two chapters of the film franchise didn't live up to the first two in terms of quality and box office numbers. Did it collapse so much in quality that the franchise isn't worth owning? If not, is it worth picking up, even with the double-dips?
