Dredd - Box Office

[Bat King]

Lionsgate are doing a lot of pushing over there, so much so most of the publicity we saw in the UK was theirs not Entertainment Films'

[CraveNoir]

It might have legs.

It might take more this weekend than last. I know that's not how these things are supposed to work, but I think it's possible given the very low attendence last week, the word of mouth, and the amount of tweets about seeing it again.
Paranorman will surely take first place, but there's no reason why DREDD can't be a solid second, ahead of The Sweeney.

My Vue local has changed the times,earlier showings and more of them.

Maybe they realise they got shit films out this weekend?

[hazy efc]

I think The Sweeney's more a DVD film, like all of Mr Love's oeuvre.

I have seen the trailer for the sweeney and it looks crap i mean i really like ray winstone but when i seen plan b i burst out laughing and the laughter didnt stop there have a look at the poster for that movie i mean come on you have got plan whatever he wants to be called with a gun resting on his shoulder trying to look hard haha ray winstone kinda can get away with looking tough look its like this anyone who is thinking about going to see this needs to come to their senses and pay to see DREDD and if you have seen it already then see it again there`s only room for 1 badass cop on the big screen this summer and his name is ds carter aha just kidding its DREDD

That sounds to me like they're getting more people in than expected, maybe the weekday numbers really have picked up in comparison to the weekend?

or was it during to screening overbooked?

[Fisticuffs]

When I saw it on friday the 7th there were 6 people in a 300 seater screen. When I saw it on last saturday there were 40. It certainly seems as though it's picking up momentum, but it might be too late in places, my local Odeon has now moved it to the smallest screen in the cinema, a measly 100 seater.

My local Cineworld in Hammersmith has scrapped all morning and afternoon showings as of tomorrow to one performance a night at 9pm.

Bad sign...?

[JOE SOAP]

Few people watch 18 rated films in the morning or the afternoon.

[golledge100]

Good point. Its also a small cinema with only one 3D screen which I suspect they will be using for Paranorman!

but does your local show that goddawful Orange sweeney ad? That'll be polluting screens for every film for the next few months.

[Fisticuffs]

Better than the cringeworthy Expendables Orange ad, which was blatantly filmed in two completely seperate places. At least the Sweeny one has some ELO in it.

[Dandontdare]

the Expendables one did make me chuckle (the first time) but the sweeeny one is eyeball-gougingly horrible full stop..
