Box Office: No Saturday Miracle Surge For The Golden Compass

Allan Ford June 5, 2013 Add a Comment
The Golden Compass There was no Saturday miracle surge for New Line. The Golden Compass, an effects-laden family film starring Nicole Kidman with a reported budget of $200M, received a modest 16% increase from its opening day, posting an estimated $10.2M on Saturday. Assuming a Sunday drop of 33%, Compass will finish its opening weekend with a disastrous $25.84M. (For a comparison to other big budget, family-oriented films in this mold along with details about New Line's dismal 2007 and Nicole Kidman's box office cold streak, scroll down to my Friday Night report.) Disney's Enchanted blew past $80M domestic with a $4.9M Saturday, and the live action/animation hybrid with a sure-fire Oscar nomination for Amy Adams will cruise to an estimated $10.98M. This Christmas (Sony), Fred Claus (Warner Bros) and Beowulf (Dreamworks/Paramount) have finished 3-4-5 on Saturday and for the 3-day frame. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oj61Q5KPues[/youtube] Juno (Fox Searchlight) enjoyed only a 2% increase from its meteoric Friday, grabbing a Saturday PTA of just over $18,000. The spectacularly-reviewed ensemble comedy will finish the weekend a PTA of just over $52,000, giving it one of the All-Time Top 50 opening weekend PTAs. This bodes very well for Searchlight's upcoming expansion, and the commercial success can only help Oscar pushes for Ellen Page – Best Actress, Jennifer Garner – Best Supporting Actress, Diablo Cody – Best Original Screenplay and Best Picture. The Joe Wright-directed Atonement (Focus) starring Kiera Knightley received a 36% Saturday uptick in ticket sales at its 32 locations, and it will finish #2 on the weekend PTA scoreboard at just over $23,000. That's solid, but slightly-disappointing given the movie's Oscar pedigree and its 86% Fresh rating at Rotten Tomatoes. Julian Schnabel's acclaimed The Diving Bell & the Butterfly (Miramax), already a winner at The Cannes Film Festival and recognized this week by the National Board of Review, has held well at its 3 locations. The French language movie will finish 3rd in PTA for the weekend, likely just shy of $19,000 per. Thinkfilm's The Walker starring Woody Harrelson and Kristin Scott Thomas is showing some life in limited release with a 3-day PTA of almost $7,000, but Iraq War-themed Grace is Gone (MGM/Weinstein), Guy Ritchie's Revolver (IDP Films) and First Look's The Amateurs featuring a quirky performance from Jeff Bridges, all appear to be non-starters.
