Tomáš Vyskočil alias Thomas z Kinomaniak website is an expert on home movie sales. And he’ll write about them for you every week on MovieZone.
Just as shamefully as in the USA, the novelty hit the ground hard in our country Marvels. Not only is it far behind the numbers of the first part of Captain Marvel or other films from the Marvel Cinematic Universe series, but in the weekend ranking it was beaten by the Czech romantic comedy How to survive your man. This is going to hurt. Similar to the USA, and indeed the rest of the world, the superheroines from Marvels have also had a bad time here and have fallen far short of expectations in terms of how many people find their way to them on the first weekend. In the end, the number is 30,000 viewers, and it was only enough for the second place in the weekend ranking.
This is five times (!) less than was curiously for the same period four years ago at Captain Marvel and this is the lowest Czech MCU opener since the first Ant-Man. So it didn’t fall to the bottom like in the USA, where Marvels jumped even 15 years old The Incredible Hulk. But that’s mainly because in our country, the first Marvel movies were very modestly attended in the first years, and only with the first ones Avengers it got a little more interesting. In short, the Marvels have one of the worst Marvel starts and it is very likely that they will not even be able to cross the 100,000 audience mark, which happened to us in the MCU for the last time in 2011 with the first Thor. Unlike in the USA, the women’s team in our country can also be pleased that they did not fall below DC competitors such as Flash či Blue Beetle. Black Adam however, it opened for twice as much here last fall.
This is also the first MCU film after a long time, which did not open as number 1 on the list in our country. His savior was – of course – the Czech romantic comedy How to Survive Your Man. 35,000 spectators are more likely to be among the better national openers this year, though only behind An island or a birthday cardbut far ahead of weaker posts like Two words as the key whether A life for the self-taught. Here, on the other hand, 100,000 viewers is a certainty given the usual persistence of Czech romantics. We’ll see if he can handle the pre-Christmas thematic competition and wants to continue to dominate the rankings. The Czech novelty swept without distinction of genre with the rest of the domestic representatives, who lost on average up to half. They suffered the most Brethren, who thereby lost a nice move towards the goal of 100 thousand viewers and have to wait another week or two before they reach it. On the contrary, champagne is currently celebrating for overcoming this limit Recovery point. Just as ambitious Dawn it’s halfway there so far and it doesn’t look like it’s going to move much anymore. Shamefully few people go to see a horror comedy the second weekend after the premiere She came at night.
By the way, the Marvel film only narrowly fell to the third place of the weekend because of the horror sensation Five Nights at Freddy’s the second weekend after the premiere reports 26,000 viewers, so it “only” dropped by 62% in our country, in the US a week earlier this score was much worse. Freddy scared a total of more than 114 thousand viewers in our country and he still has time and energy to collect a few tens of thousands more before the end of November. He was not at all swayed by the horror news Before the piccolo, after the piccolo, which only about 1,500 viewers were curious about. The haunting atmosphere is still in the rankings by the persistent Kenneth Branagh and his Ghosts in Venice, maybe even 50 thousand viewers in total will succeed there. And as for another famous director, Martin Scorsese and his Killers of the Blooming Moon they sympathetically collect inconspicuous thousands around the tenth place and freely swung over 50 thousand. Fajnšmekrov’s novelty The art of eating and loving excited, as expected, about 2.5 thousand of the most faithful, and we will probably see it in the ranking for only a few weeks, somewhere in the second ten.
The rest in the TOP 20 are made up of children’s films. The rest is perhaps too modest a word, because there are currently eight animations. Exceeds expectations The Magical Ladybug and the Black Cat, after a nice start last weekend, fell by only 18% and adds another 15 thousand viewers. She is unstoppable on her heels Paw Patrol, which added another 14,000 viewers and totals 307,000. This year’s year-round attendance is number seven so far, and Paw Patrol is only a few thousand short of moving to number six ahead of Český Ostrov. However, it is still far from Super Mario (380,000).
Against this duo, the other animes are more difficult to assert themselves, a Czech representative could say Tonda and Slávka, which reports a 38% drop and we’re not even at 20,000 viewers yet. I’m already aiming for B-grade cartoons The Canterville Haunter or Ace of the Forest 2 have surpassed and are successfully taking viewers away from Czech news. Pixar is still fighting in the second ten Among the elements, but it had to bow to the Paw Patrol in total numbers (302 thousand). A more demanding French anime was completely without a chance Nina and the Hedgehog’s Secretin, which opened with just under a thousand spectators.
Complete sales chart here.
They also placed third in the pre-premiere Trolls (6,000 viewers), however, they will start strongly only this Thursday and will be among the favorites. The second big news of the week is the reboot of the once super successful series The Hunger Games with a prequel title The Ballad of Birds and Serpents. Let’s see if the audience has not forgotten about this series yet. Those who don’t want commercials can go to more ambitious films like the German one on the long November weekend Music or Finnish Karaoke blues. České Bratry will complete the documentary on Thursday Escape to Berlin again charting the escape of the Mašín brothers. And drama Her body will describe the true story of a Czech athlete who succeeded in adult films after a serious injury.
