As of Monday, Bar Detective (TOEI) has grossed 1,004,450,800 yen ($13.05 million) with 794,140 admissions after 24 Days in Release.

That makes it the 28th Japanese Film (and 46th Overall) to cross 1 billion yen this year. In films that have grossed 1 billion yen or more, 2011 now only trails 2010 by two with almost two full months remaining in the Box Office Year.

I expect Rise of the Apes to do very well in Japan.

Unfair 2 will close in on 2 billion yen ($25/26 million) this weekend, which will make it the 19th film this year to reach that milestone.

And Fast Five is only dropping hard because 57% of it's opening weekend included previews from the previous, holiday, weekend.

Based on some weekend reports, Rise of the Planets of the Apes is doing very well with projections above 600 million yen ($8 million+) for it's 4-Day total. The film opened on Friday, and Monday is another Holiday (Taiiku no Hi).

Tsure-Utsu is doing solid business, but will likely just miss debuting in the Top 3 this weekend. Projections have it around 200 million yen ($2.5 million) for it's 3-Day total.

I knew Rise of the Apes was going to be big, but not this big.

For the opening weekend itself (Saturday and Sunday), the film sold 318,283 tickets to gross 403,884,300 yen ($5.2 million). And it's 4-Day total (Friday-Monday) resulted in a very, very impressive 585,948 admissions for 728,181,500 yen ($9.4 million) on 626 screens.

This opening should definitely be enough to end up with a gross of 3 billion yen ($39 million) or a bit more, making Japan it's No.1 Market overseas.

Tsure-Utsu debuts in fourth with 95,524 admissions; 126,961,600 yen ($1.6 million) on 222 screens.

Moteki becomes the 47th film this year to exceed 1 billion yen ($13 million) after just three weeks in release.

Unfair: the answer crosses 1.5 million admissions and 2 billion yen ($26 million) after four weeks in release.

Aand In the City of Dawn, playing on 147 screens, debuted with a decent 25,177 admissions; 33,154,800 yen ($430,000).

BLUE Highlight = New Entry

Note - If a film is not in bold and isn't in italics (e.g. Unstoppable, Andalusia), it means tracking for that film ended and the total listed isn't final yet. The totals for those films are likely to increase <1% when the final total is released.


Highlights:

Unfair 2 moves into the Top 10 among Japanese Films after exceeding 2 billion yen.

Bar Detective and Moteki debut on the charts, becoming the 28th and 29th Japanese films this year to exceed 1 billion yen. That ties 2010, and is five films short of 2009's record 34 films.

Tracking for Harry Potter 7.2 ended, so I'll update the final figure when it's released. I highly doubt Warner and whoever else allows it to miss 7 million admissions by such a small amount, too.


Films nearing 1 billion yen (900 million yen+):

No films is currently over 900 million yen at the moment, but Rise of the Planet of the Apes and Fast Five will make it to 1 billion yen soon.

PREVIOUS YEARS

Fast Five exceeded 1 billion yen on Wednesday according to moviewalker.com.

This is the first time a film in the franchise has reached 1 billion yen. And Fast Five became the 19th Imported Film this year to hit the milestone. That ties 2010's Imported Films that grossed 1 billion yen or more, but Imported Films are still lagging behind the early and mid 2000's.

Imported Films have trailed Japanese Films for five-consecutive years (soon to be six years).

Overall, 2011 has produced 48 Films that have grossed more than 1 billion yen, tying last year, with Rise of the Planet of the Apes about to cross the milestone any day now. And there are still a few more 1 billion yen candidates to go, too, before the Box Office Year finishes at the end of November.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes tops for a second weekend, taking in more than 1.3 billion yen ($17 million) after 10 days in release.

Moteki ranks second for it's fourth consecutive week, exceeding 1.1 million admissions and 1.5 billion yen ($20 million).

Ichimei debuted in fourth with 72,858 admissions; 87,024,700 yen ($1.12 million).

Captain America debuted in sixth in admissions with 58,423, but fourth or fifth in gross with 88,334,900 yen ($1.15 million) on 369 screens. It's three day total is now 77,965 admissions; 115,095,800 yen ($1.49 million).

Rise of the Planet to the Apes continues it's great performance so far. A standard two week multiplier of 2.2 would bring it to almost exactly 3 billion yen (almost $40 million), but it opened on a Holiday Weekend so the two week multiplier should be closer to 2.0.

I see it finishing with 2.6/2.7 billion yen ($34/35 million).

These are great numbers for a non-3D Hollywood export.

Yes. I'm not sure if I'd consider it or Black Swan the more impressive among non-3D releases.

Key:
Italics = Film is still in release and being tracked.
BOLD = Film ended it's run with it's final gross and admissions released.
BLUE Highlight = New Entry

Note - If a film is not in bold and isn't in italics (e.g. Unstoppable, Andalusia), it means tracking for that film ended and the total listed isn't final yet. The totals for those films are likely to increase <1% when the final total is released.


Highlights:

Rise of the Planet of the Apes and Fast Five debut on the charts.

They also make the 19th and 20th Imported Films this year to exceed 1 billion yen. That beats last year's 19 Imported Films that grossed more than 1 billion yen, and also puts 2011 at 49 Films for the year that have grossed more than 1 billion yen, beating 2010's 48.

Moteki moves up five spots on the charts.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes will remain at No.1 again this coming weekend, and Moteki could repeat in second for a fifth-consecutive week if it holds off Cowboys & Aliens.

Captain America doing poorly means no Hollywood Comic/Superhero movie this year will achieve 1 billion yen. The closest to the mark was either Thor or First Class with 500-600 million yen.

Key:

BLUE Highlight = New Entry

Note - If a film is not in bold and isn't in italics (e.g. Unstoppable, Andalusia), it means tracking for that film ended and the total listed isn't final yet. The totals for those films are likely to increase <1% when the final total is released.


Highlights:

Rise of the Planet of the Apes and Fast Five debut on the charts.

They also make the 19th and 20th Imported Films this year to exceed 1 billion yen. That beats last year's 19 Imported Films that grossed more than 1 billion yen, and also puts 2011 at 49 Films for the year that have grossed more than 1 billion yen, beating 2010's 48.

Moteki moves up five spots on the charts.

10 (-) Rango (Paramount) NEW

Saturday Data

Openers, percentages vs. opening days for recent releases:

Cowboys & Aliens 58.4% ahead of Captain America
Smugglers 15.9% ahead of In the City of Dawn.

Those figures would give Cowboys and Aliens an opening of 130-140 million yen ($1.7 million) this weekend, and 55-60 million yen ($800,000) for Smugglers. And no report on Rango will probably result in a debut outside the Top 10, unfortunately.

Holdovers, drops/increases compared to last Saturday (estimated weekend gross):

Rise of the Apes -21.1% (230-240 million yen), Week 3
Moteki -15.2% (110-120 million yen), Week 5
Tsure-Itsu -19.5% (75-80 million yen), Week 3
Fast Five -25.9% (70-75 million yen), Week 4
Ichimei -44.4% (50-55 million yen), Week 2
Unfair 2 -35.2% (40-45 million yen), Week 6
DOGXPOLICE -30.8% (40-45 million yen), Week 4
Captain America -60.2% (35-40 million yen), Week 2 (ouch)
Hayabusa -40.7% (25-30 million yen), Week 4
Bar Detective +11.0% (20-25 million yen), Week 7

Looking to be a great weekend for holdovers, except for Captain America which will barely stay in the Top 10. Rise of the Apes will easily claim it's third week on top.

Rise of the Apes easily defends it's first place position for a third week now. After 17 Days in Release, it has grossed approx. 1.8 billion yen ($23.5 million) with 1.4 million admissions.

Cowboys & Aliens, playing on 331 screens, opens to 140,422,000 yen ($1.8 million) on 114,543 admissions over the weekend. A decent start that should give it 700/800 million yen (almost $10 million).

And Smuggler debuts with a modest 48,755,300 yen ($630,000) on 35,610 admissions on 184 screens.

PREVIOUS YEARS

I wasn't tracking Japan numbers, but WOW that's amazing for Apes. It beat Fast Five when they opened nearly together, which is amazing. Fast Five did ok, where as Captain America did less than expected.

Never heard of Moteki before but those are impressive numbers and holds for it.

Yep, Apes is well on track to become the biggest non-3D Hollywood film this year with 2.5-3 billion yen.

And Moteki has been very leggy currently with a 7.3 multiplier in Week 5, and will definitely reach a multiplier of 9 with a chance at a 10.
