The avg. ticket price for the film is now 1,524 yen ($19.00). https://twitter.com/#!/moviewalker_ce/s ... 5965587456Once again, it's no record total in local currency or admissions, but thanks to the exchange rate, it does register the third highest three week total ever in USD.

 Re: Japan Box Office (2011); Weekend Forecast
June 11-12, 2011 Weekend Forecast
1. Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (Walt Disney) 475-525 million yen, Week 4 2. X-Men: First Class (Fox) 175-225 million yen, NEW 3. Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle (TOEI) 150-200 million yen, NEW 4. Princess Toyotomi (Toho) 120-130 million yen, Week 3 5. Paradise Kiss (Warner Bros.) 110-120 million yen, Week 2 6. Hoshi Mamoru Inu (Toho) 100-110 million yen, NEW 7. Black Swan (Fox) 95-105 million yen, Week 5 8.

Red Riding Hood (Warner Bros.), 50-60 million yen, NEW
Pirates 4 should cross 6 billion yen this weekend with 6.1/6.2 billion yen ($76 million).
Don't expect much from X-Men. All the previous films didn't do much, and Wolverine didn't even reach 1 billion yen total. The Last Stand was the highest grossing of the franchise with 1.53 billion yen.

 Re: Japan Box Office (2011); Weekend Forecast
Saturday Data from the Usual Locations
Openers
Increases/Decreases when compared to Management (140,000 admissions; 180 million yen) last weekend:
X-Men: First Class (+6.9%) Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle (+82.6%) Hoshi Mamoru Inu (-5.1%) Samurai Sheath (-15.3%) Red Riding Hood (-47.4%)
X-Men: First Class should open with about 150,000 admissions; 200 million yen ($2.5 million). Comparable to Wolverine, which went on to miss 1 billion yen total.
Gokaiger Goseiger, 225-250,000 admissions, will have much lower ticket prices than Management, so it's more difficult to project a number. But with such a large increase over Management's opening last weekend. I'll go with 275 million yen ($3.4 million) to take second this weekend.
Hoshi Mamoru Inu is looking at about 140 million yen ($1.8 million).
Samurai Sheath 115 million yen ($1.4 million); Red Riding Hood 75 million yen (almost $1 million).
Holdovers
Increases/Decreases when compared to last Saturday:
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (-8.1%) Paradise Kiss (-13.4%) What if a Female Manager of a High School Baseball Team Read Drucker's "Management"? (-12.1%) Princess Toyotomi (-23.8%) Black Swan (-44.2%) Sengoku Basara - The Last Party (-52.6%)
Pirates 4 will likely gross over 600 million yen ($7.5 million) this weekend with another possible single digit drop (!), allowing it to cruise past 6 billion yen ($75 million) on Sunday now with about 6.2 billion yen ($77 million).
Great holds for Paradise Kiss, Management, and Toyotomi, too. Sengoku Basara will see an expected 50% drop or more this weekend.
Black Swan's drop is concerning, and I can only guess it's a combination of X-Men being from Fox, and possible screen loss.
Overall, a very strong weekend. Last weekend's drops were a bit harsh all around, so this weekend is making up for it based on the Saturday data.

 Re: Japan Box Office (2011); Saturday Report
Pirates of the Caribbean 4
Actual 2day total - Y1,209,024,468 ($14.76m), 773,184 admissions 3day total - Y1,518,843,416 ($18.57m), 986,455 admissions 10day total - Y3,606,704,539 ($44.72 million), 2,354,111 admissions 17day total - Y5,033,170,433 ($62.96 million), 3,302,634 admissions
My Projections 24day total - Y6,200,000,000 ($77 million), 4,050,000 admissions 31day total - Y7,100,000,000 ($88 million), 4,650,000 admissions 38day total - Y7,700,000,000 ($96 million), 5,050,000 admissions (Andalusia; Super 8) 45day total - Y8,100,000,000 ($101 million), 5,400,000 admissions 52day total - Y8,400,000,000 ($105 million), 5,500,000 admissions
Day 58 (Harry Potter, Pokemon, Studio Ghibli)
From there it becomes difficult, not knowing how much it falls when Harry Potter takes it's 3D screens. In the past, event 3D films drop over 70% (Avatar, Alice, Toy Story 3, Umizaru 3, etc) when another one opens, so a similar result is likely.

 Re: Japan Box Office (2011); Saturday Report
it is dropping < 10% over the weekend but overall weekly drop seem to be in low 20's. Is that a normal trend. Also from a 14M week you are predicting < 30M over next 5 weeks. Without much competition cant it hold better?

Without much competition cant it hold better? I usually play it safe when predicting, and that's the case above, too. So always keep that in mind when I post predictions. Personally, I think it'll do a bit better than what I posted. I like to be surprised by bigger figures when they're available. It could be as high as 6.4 billion yen ($80 million) after this weekend, meaning it would go something like (in billion yen): 6.4 > 7.4 > 8.2 > 8.7 > 9.0 ($112 million) before Potter opens.

 Re: Japan Box Office (2011); Weekend Forecast
Weekend Data from the Usual Locations
Openers
Increases/Decreases when compared to Management (140,000 admissions; 180 million yen) last weekend:
X-Men: First Class (-12.1%) Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle (+80.2%) Hoshi Mamoru Inu (-15.9%) Samurai Sheath (-25.0%) Red Riding Hood (-46.4%)
Disappointing for X-Men: First Class. This suggests admissions will only be around 125,000, meaning an opening weekend barely over 150 million yen ($1.9 million).
Gokaiger Goseiger should have about 225,000 admissions, so 260 million yen ($3.2 million) or so.
Hoshi Mamoru Inu may even edge X-Men out, as it's looking at like 120,000 admissions for 140 million yen ($1.8 million).
Samurai Sheath 100 million yen ($1.2 million); Red Riding Hood 75 million yen (almost $1 million).
Holdovers
Increases/Decreases when compared to last Weekend:
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (-10.9%) Paradise Kiss (-10.8%) What if a Female Manager of a High School Baseball Team Read Drucker's "Management"? (-16.9%) Princess Toyotomi (-22.9%) Black Swan (-44.6%) Sengoku Basara - The Last Party (-43.4%)
Pirates 4 is still targeting over 600 million yen ($7.5 million) for the weekend, and 6.2 billion yen ($76 million) or better after Sunday.
Even better holds for Paradise Kiss, Management, and Toyotomi.

 Re: Japan Box Office (2011); Early Weekend Report
THR says $6/$74.5 million for Pirates 4, but I think that's an underestimate like last weekend. Rankings by location (Toho, Warner, Shikoku): TOHO1. Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (Walt Disney) Week 4 2. Gokaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great Battle (TOEI) NEW3. Princess Toyotomi (Toho) Week 3 4. X-Men: First Class (Fox) NEW5. What if a Female Manager of a High School Baseball Team Read Drucker's "Management"? (Toho) Week 2 6. Hoshi Mamoru Inu (Toho) NEW7. Paradise Kiss (Warner Bros.) Week 2 8. Samurai Sheath (Shochiku) NEW9. Black Swan (Fox) Week 5 10. AKB48 Live! Concert Cinema Broadcast June 11, 2011 (Toho) NEWhttp://www.tohotheater.jp/index.htmlWarner and Shikoku will update their Top 10 later, but Estimates have been released before then the past couple weeks.

 Re: Japan Box Office (2011); Early Weekend Report
As I suspected, THR was underestimating the weekend and total for Pirates 4. It only dropped 5% this past weekend. Weekend Article is being written right now.

 Re: Japan Box Office (2011); Weekend Rankings
June 11-12 Weekend Estimate for Pirates:
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (Walt Disney) - 657.81 million yen ($8.20 million) -4.8%; 6,229,460,000 yen ($77.69 million), 4,079,988 admissions 24-Day total.
THR hasn't reported such an inaccurate number in a long time (to be fair, perhaps it wasn't their doing). Some comparisons for Pirates in my next post tonight.

 Re: Japan Box Office (2011); OST Numbers
Weekend Estimate for X-Men: First Class - 172,418,800 ($2.15 million), 135,301 admissions.
Compared to it's predecessors:
X-Men: The Last Stand - 276,596,973 ($2.37 million) X-Men Origins: Wolverine - 176,857,331 ($1.91 million) / 232,615,649 ($2.51 million) (3-Day)
With the exchange rate being much, much more favorable right now than in 2006 or 2009, First Class has an 50/50 shot at $10 million total.

You have to carry on like you will; otherwise, you can't carry on at all.” "Paper is dead without words / Ink idle without a poem / All the world dead without stories."
