Re: Japan Box Office: Weekend Ranking [Culture Day Weekend]
Weekend Ranking [11/02-03]
1 (-) SPEC: Close - Incarnation Part I (Toho) DEBUT 2 (1) Magi Madoka Magica: The Rebellion Story (Warner Bros.) Week 2 3 (2) Pretty Cure: The Dress of Hope Tied to the Future! (Toei) Week 2 4 (-) Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters (Fox) DEBUT 5 (3) The Girl in the Sunny Place (Toho) Week 4 6 (4) The King of Apology (Toho) Week 6 7 (6) Like Father, Like Son (Gaga) Week 6 8 (5) Now You See Me (Kadokawa) Week 2 9 (7) Beyond the Memories (Toho) Week 2 10 (-) 42 (Warner Bros.) DEBUT 11 (-) 2 Guns (Sony) DEBUT
>SPEC: Close - Incarnation Part I steamrolled the competition this weekend earning an impressive ¥457,993,900 ($4.7 million) and 345,921 admissions over the weekend frame on 290 screens. Since opening on Friday, the 4-Day total reached an even more impressive ¥882,690,000 ($9.0 million) and 740,000 admissions. This is the 3rd biggest 4-day total this year (behind only 'The Wind Rises' and 'Monsters University'), and the biggest for a live-action film.
>Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters disappoints in fourth place, grossing a mediocre ¥117,279,050 ($1.2 million) and 83,822 admissions on 629 screens over the weekend. The 4-Day total hasn't been released, but it's assumed to be in the neighborhood of ¥200 million ($2.1 million). This is certainly a weak debut and it'll be lucky to earn half of what the original film made almost 4 years ago now.
>42 rounds out the Top 10 making ¥54,284,400 ($556,000) and 43,320 admissions over the weekend on 159 screens. Likewise, no 4-Day numbers have been released for the film.
>Magi Madako Magica beats Pretty Cure in gross, but loses in admissions.
As for the the rest, it's been reported that as of Monday, Like Father, Like Son has earned ¥2.9 billion ($30 million) after six-weeks; The King of Apology crossed ¥2 billion ($21 millon) also after six-weeks, and The Girl in the Sunny Place is now up to ¥1.5 billion ($16 million) after four-weeks.
And I don't know what happened to Jobs. The only explanation I have is that given the low theater count of 99, most of them were located in the areas that report weekend estimates that greatly skewed how well it really did for the weekend.

Next week sees the release of The Kiyosu Conference (a comic portrayal of Japan's first political meeting), and it's expected to open to/above ¥500 million and become one of the biggest films of the year. The film stars many notable names, but Koji Yakusho should be recognizable to some here.

I am not sure what is more surprising...Percy Jackson 2 disappointing or the first one actually overperforming the way it did back in 2010...

Re: Japan Box Office: Weekend Ranking [11/02-03]; Charts Upd
Was the first film in 3D? I don't have any admissions available for it, so I'm unsure. 'Avatar' created a 3D boom throughout 2010 and 2011 (all major 3D releases were getting 80/90% 3D shares), so that could explain some of success of the original film.
Having Chris Columbus as the director may have also been a factor, too. I don't know if he's a household name for certain, but all his films do well and he could have created a name for himself in the market after 'Home Alone' and 'Harry Potter'.

The film opened today at LA's Landmark Theatre and NY's Landmark Sunshine Cinema for a one-week run so it could qualify for the Oscars.
It's one of 19 animated-films submitted for consideration for Best Animated Feature this year.

Weekend Forecast [11/09-10]
1 (-) The Kiyosu Conference (Toho) ¥470 million ($4.8 million) [334 theaters] DEBUT 2 (1) SPEC: Close - Incarnation Part I (Toho) ¥239 million ($2.5 million) Week 2 3 (2) Magi Madako Magica: The Rebellion Story (Warner Bros.) ¥169 million ($1.8 million) Week 3 4 (3) Pretty Cure: The Dress of Hope Tied to the Future! (Toei) ¥104 million ($1.1 million) Week 3 5 (4) Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters (Fox) ¥72 million ($730,000) Week 2 6 (5) The Girl in the Sunny Place (Toho) ¥68 million ($690,000) Week 5 7 (-) RoomMate (Toei) ¥50 million ($510,000) [194 theaters] DEBUT 8 (6) Like Father, Like Son (Gaga) ¥43 million ($440,000) Week 7 9 (7) The King of Apology (Toho) ¥39 million ($400,000) Week 7 10 (8) Now You See Me (Kadokawa) ¥37 million ($380,000) Week 3
-Carry (Sony) ¥35 million ($360,000) [182 theaters] DEBUT -Bad Boys J: The Movie (Showgate) ¥35 million ($310,000) [90 theaters] DEBUT -Mourning Recipe (Gaga) ¥30 million ($310,000) [126 theaters] DEBUT
The Kiyosu Conference, a comedy film featuring an all-star cast portraying Japan's first political meeting in the late-16th-century, is expected to have a strong opening and go on to also become one of the top grossing films of the year.
It's morning showings appeared solid, but as it heads into the afternoon, showings at many locations are beginning to reach half-capacity or better indicating it's attracting a pretty broad audience that is likely skewing older. I'm hoping for an opening over ¥500 million, but I'll project an opening a little under the mark.
And it's worth noting that Magi Madoka Magica is receiving numerous stage greetings today, and those showings are practically selling out. These could result in a great hold this weekend.

Re: Japan Box Office: Weekend Forecast [11/09/10]
Distributor Toho is reporting that The Kiyosu Conference opened on 430 screens, and business for the first part of the day was on par with A Ghost of a Chance (2011), director Koki Mitani's previous film.
A Ghost of a Chance opened to ¥504 million ($6.4 million) two years ago and earned ¥4.28 billion ($55 million), and was the top grossing local live-action film of 2011 (and third overall behind 'Harry Potter' and 'Pirates').
If The Kiyosu Conference opens to ¥500 million+, it will be the first live-action film (domestic or imported) to do so in over a year, since September 2012 when 'Resident Evil IV' and 'Bayside Shakedown: The Final' did it.
I always caution any and all reports made by distributors in Japan because they really love to overhype, overproject their films but since they didn't really give any projections for a final gross (surprised they didn't outright project ¥4 or ¥5 billion), let's hope that's not the case this time.

Saturday Estimates (11/09)
1. ¥253 million ($2.6 million), 0, The Kiyosu Conference (Toho) DEBUT 2. ¥125 million ($1.3 million), -44%, SPEC: Close - Incarnation Part I (Toho) Week 2 3. ¥117 million ($1.2 million), +28%, Magi Madoka Magica: The Rebellion Story (Warner Bros.) Week 3 4. ¥43 million ($440,000), -41%, Pretty Cure: The Dress of Hope Tied to the Future! (Toei) Week 3 5. ¥27 million ($280,000), -43%, The Girl in the Sunny Place (Toho) Week 5 6. ¥23 million ($240,000), 0, Bad Boys J: The Movie (Showgate) DEBUT 7. ¥23 million ($235,000), 0, Carry (Sony) DEBUT 8. ¥22 million ($230,000), -60%, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters (Fox) Week 2 9. ¥20 million ($210,000), -38%, Like Father, Like Son (Gaga) Week 7 10. ¥20 million ($205,000), -30%, Beyond the Memories (Toho) Week 3 11. ¥19 million ($195,000), 0, RoomMate (Toei) DEBUT 12. ¥18 million ($185,000), -41%, Now You See Me (Kadokawa) Week 3 13. ¥15 million ($155,000), -50%, The King of Apology (Toho) week 7 14. ¥14 million ($145,000), -46%, 42 (Warner Bros.) Week 2 15. ¥9 million ($95,000), 0, Mourning Recipe (Gaga) DEBUT
Very good for The Kiyosu Conference. Sunday pre-sales are ahead of Saturday's too, so ¥500 million is looking possible. Certainly not a lock given estimates haven't been all too reliable as of late, but let's keep hopes up that we may finally get a live-action film debuting above the mark.
Magi Madako Magica clearly benefited from the stage greetings yesterday. It'll fall hard today, but the Saturday number might be enough to allow for a weekend increase.
Pathetic for RoomMate. The film is playing in almost 200 theaters (the equivalent of a film receiving a 2,250 or so count in the US) so the number is dismal.
And Percy Jackson's and The King of Apology's bigger drops may allow both Bad Boys J and Carry to make the Top 10.

Week 2 15 (-) ¥19 million ($200,000), 0, Mourning Recipe (Gaga) [126 theaters] DEBUT
>Estimates have The Kiyosu Conference beating SPEC's opening last weekend by 12%, and Midsummer Formula (currently the biggest opening live-action film of the year) by 10%.
Both of these figures puts The Kiyosu Conference just above the ¥500 million mark, which will make it the first live-action film (domestic or imported) in 14 months to open above the milestone! However, if the film skewed too old, it's avg. ticket price will be lower than than the comparable films, so I wouldn't call ¥500 million+ safe yet. Either way though, whether it opens as low as ¥450 million (very high senior turnout) or as high ¥550 million, it shouldn't have a problem reaching ¥3.5 billion ($35 million+) or possibly ¥4 billion ($40 million+).
>SPEC sees a slightly big drop in it's second weekend, but given it opened over a discount day/Holiday weekend, I'm actually a bit surprised it avoided a 50% drop.
>Magi Madoka Magica is looking at a great third weekend increase thanks to the stage greetings from Saturday. Stage greetings have become an important factor for many films this year.
>RoomMate rebounded some on Sunday, but still looks poised for a disappointing debut given the number of theaters it's playing in.
>Carrie and Bad Boys J rank higher than expected thanks to the holdovers seeing some steep drops due to post-Culture Weekend.
>Percy Jackson has one of the worst second-weekend holds of the year is estimates are accurate.

Weekend Ranking [11/09-10]
1 (-) The Kiyosu Conference (Toho) DEBUT 2 (1) SPEC: Close - Incarnation Part I (Toho) Week 2 3 (2) Magi Madoka Magica: The Rebellion Story (Warner Bros.) Week 3 4 (3) Pretty Cure: The Dress of Hope Tied to the Future! (Toei) Week 3 5 (-) Bad Boys J: The Movie (Showgate) DEBUT 6 (5) The Girl in the Sunny Place (Toho) Week 5 7 (-) Carrie (Sony) DEBUT 8 (4) Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters (Fox) Week 2 9 (-) RoomMate (Toei) DEBUT 10 (9) Beyond the Memories (Toho) Week 3 11 (6) Like Father, Like Son (Gaga) Week 7
>The Kiyosu Conference debuted on 430 screens to ¥483,716,600 ($5.0 million) and 386,994 admissions over the weekend. It's unfortunate it missed ¥500 million because now the 2013 Box-Office Year (Dec-Nov) will go without a single live-action film opening above the mark. However, the opening is still strong enough to be the top debut for a live-action film this year, as well as the biggest in 14-months.
Since the film skewed pretty old... 40-49 (31%) 50-59 (26%) 30-39 (20%) 60+ (13%) 20-29 (8%) legs should be strong allowing at it to reach ¥3.5 billion ($36 million), and with some luck, maybe ¥4 billion ($41/42 million).
>Bad Boys J managed to break the Top 5 despite playing in just 90 screens. The film earned ¥80,189,100 ($818,000) and 58,820 admissions making it one of Showgate's best openings in recent years.
>Carrie settled for 7th-place, grossing ¥54,356,400 ($555,000) and 40,920 admissions over the weekend on 272 screens. This may seem like a poor debut, but it's actually rather decent given how terrible horror films do in the market.
>And finally, RoomMate really disappoints only making ¥47,673,400 ($487,000) and 35,795 admissions on 193 screens.

Re: Japan Box Office: Weekend Ranking; Charts Updating
The film share update as of Oct. 31 for this year was released a couple days ago, the data collected includes the earnings for films released by the Top 13 Studios:
2000: Japanese Film (31.8%) / Imported Film (68.2%) 2001: Japanese Film (39.0%) / Imported Film (61.0%) 2002: Japanese Film (27.1%) / Imported Film (72.9%) 2003: Japanese Film (33.0%) / Imported Film (67.0%) 2004: Japanese Film (37.5%) / Imported Film (62.5%) 2005: Japanese Film (41.3%) / Imported Film (58.7%) 2006: Japanese Film (53.2%) / Imported Film (46.8%) *Last time Japanese Films won was 1985 (50.9%)* 2007: Japanese Film (47.7%) / Imported Film (52.3%) 2008: Japanese Film (59.5%) / Imported Film (40.5%) 2009: Japanese Film (56.9%) / Imported Film (43.1%) 2010: Japanese Film (53.6%) / Imported Film (46.4%) 2011: Japanese Film (54.9%) / Imported Film (45.1%) 2012: Japanese Film (65.7%) / Imported Film (34.3%) *Lowest Imported Film share since 1965 (33.3%)* 2013: Japanese Film (60.5%) / Imported Film (39.5%) *After 10 Months*
Also after 10 months, 2013 is down 0.8% in revenue compared to last year, but admissions are up 2.9% according to data collected from the Top 13 Studios.
November is off to a strong start so far with SPEC: Close - Incarnation Part I and The Kiyosu Conference, and there is still The Tale of Princess Kaguya to come in two weeks, as well as SPEC: Close - Incarnation Part 2 the following week.
Hollywood has an empty November, unfortunately, with only Captain Phillips possibly doing alright business. They do have 47 Ronin and Gravity next month, though. I don't have much faith in Ronin, but Gravity could certainly breakout.

Re: Japan Box Office: Film Share Update
I would say so. All of his films still do pretty well in the market, which can't be said about Arnold or Sly in more recent years.
