With both Skyfall and Twilight experiencing fairly hefty drop-offs for the second week running, 37 and 55% respectively, Rise of the Guardians sneaked past both with a solid second week to claim top spot with takings of around £1.6million at the UK Box Office this past weekend. Dreamworks’ animated film will be benefitting not only [...]
It’s been storming the UK box-office ever since it was released on October 26th and now, just 6 weeks later, it’s officially taken the #1 spot from James Cameron’s 2009 movie Avatar. This feat is rather impressive especially since the takings for Skyfall are minus any 3D sales since the movie was shot in the [...]
Thanks to the critical success of The Elephant Man, Lynch hoped next to get his long gestating Ronnie Rocket off the launch pad. Sadly due to the near collapse of American Zoetrope, Francis Ford Coppola’s production outfit, the project was shelved. Lynch then next had the opportunity to direct Return of the Jedi but famously [...]
Arguably, when it comes to Marvel vs. DC, Marvel have the best catalogue superheroes (I’ll let you fight that one out in the comments section below) and with all the movie adaptation from these comic book heroes over the last 50+ years, it’s interesting to see just how each movie has fared. FancyDressCostumes have created [...]
Well surprise surprise. The Dark Knight Rises has topped the charts for two weeks in a row in predictably emphatic fashion. They say that in life there is no such thing as a sure thing. Well whoever said that would have been laughed out of the room by execs at Warner Bros. Whoever said that [...]
The end of last week was a time of great anticipation for the people of Britain. The Olympics was one whole week away but in only a few short days the forecast was sunny with occasional spells of watching The Dark Knight. The PR machine (as it had been for some time) was in full [...]
We wouldn’t normally put up reports about pre-booking takings but this number is rather staggering and could be the first of many records broken as the BFI have just sent over the press release (below) stating that The Dark Knight Rises has smashed their record for advanced sales at Waterloo IMAX. Watch The Dark Knight [...]
If may seem entirely apparent that in order to succeed you need quality. A dash of talent and invention here, a wonderful peace of transitory execution there, that’s what maketh a movie young Padawan (alas Geroge Lucas doesn’t make this list even though he really should). But looking around us it soon becomes apparent that [...]
Let me throw some movie titles out at you and see if you can detect a pattern….. John Carter, Battleship (apologies to Taylor Kitsch who starred in both of these!), Snow White and the Huntsman, Prometheus (again, apologies Charlize Theron!), Men in Black 3, The Dictator – All huge big-budget Hollywood blockbusters (maybe with the [...]
It’s official. The Avengers has taken the US box office by storm this weekend in its opening release, with early figures estimating a $200.3m. three-day opening, making it the biggest opening weekend in the States of all time. If anyone was unconvinced that Joss Whedon wasn’t the right man for the job (and I don’t [...]
We knew The Avengers was going to be big but I reckon not even Disney / Marvel knew how big until box office confirmations started to come in during the day. We’ve just received a press release which has confirmed that the movie has taken the number one spot in all 39 countries in which [...]
I don’t like what McG stands for and consequently I hate This Means War. Throughout this article that may become tediously clear. The film is rubbish and in a box-office that this week has been buoyed to a long overdue comparative high I regret that a large chuck of that success is constituted by the [...]
It’s the tail end of half-term and The Woman in Black and The Muppets have cleaned up for the second week in a row. The weekend has also thrown up a terrible selection of new releases with only one smashing its way into the currently robust top 10. Not surprising considering the strong releases of [...]
With the exception of the overlooked Young Adult and Martha Marcy May Marlene everything seems pretty much in order this week. Chronicle goes straight in at number one, Journey 2: The Mysterious Island pulling in the family audience and Jack and Jill gaining a well deserved and generous haul of almost a million pounds. Wait, [...]
2011 was such a good year for film, and the British Film Institute have released the year’s final tally at the box office that reflect just how good a year it was. The figures show an increase of 5% from 2010, taking a total of £1.04bn., marking the first time the UK box office has [...]
There may be a worldwide recession on but that hasn’t stopped fans of Twilight flocking to the cinema in their droves to see the fourth and penultimate movie based on the Stephanie Meyer book, Twilight Breaking Dawn: Part 1. Summit Entertainment have reported that they have now surpassed the $500m at the global box office [...]
The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn–Part 1 which stars Taylor Lautner, Kristen Sterwart, Robert Pattinsion and is based on the books by Stephanie Meyer has opened over the weekend to a rather impressive opening weekend bringing in a MASSIVE $283.5m according to info from our friends at THR. In the US, the movie brought in $139.5m [...]
On its third week of release, Nicholas Winding Refn’s much-praised, pseudo-80’s neon noir Drive has slipped out of the US box office, having made a relatively modest $27m so far. In many ways this is a frustrating figure for a film which has been almost universally praised by critics, but it’s perhaps unsurprising why it [...]
This is rather amazing and further cements my argument for why a sequel may be on the way as news breaks that The Inbetweeners Movie has become the biggest opening week box office earner for a comedy EVER in the UK taking (at present) £27,715,177!! This is an amazing number for a movie which according [...]
Following on from the previews figures that we saw last week, it’s no surprise that we’ve just heard that The Inbetweeners Movie (our review here) has raked in a massive £13.2m at the UK box office in the past 4 days breaking the previous record for a UK comedy which was previously held by Bridget [...]
