Bulgarian Boxoffice Update - Weekend 9-11 September

He has just seen the BG Boxoffice
Once again, any last week comparisons will be useless as we have a three-day weekend compared to a six-day one. So, unsurprisingly, the blue extravaganza called The Smurfs ranks for a fourth weekend on the top. With a total of 702,815 so far, the movie will more probably end its entire run crossing the 1m barrier. 

The second spot continues to be occupied by Conan The Barbarian, with the far less result of 260,915 so far, while the first new entry comes in at #3. As stupid as it is, The Zookeper manages to bring to its cage a total of 30,824 including previews, which (fingers crossed) is a sign that this excuse for a movie will bomb soon. And, the fact that it's not dubbed in Bulgarian doesn't help either. 

At #4 Horrible Bosses continues its successful run with a total of 249,771, while at #5 Green Hornet shows the depressing 68,293 so far, which should be considered as a disappointment by all involved in its making and distribution.

Further down the chart, Colombiana shows healthy 58,792 so far, followed by the surprisingly good 56,836 for Shak Night 3D.

Even the presence of its own director in Bulgaria couldn't prevent the disastrous results of The Nutcracker in 3D. The movie, whose performance was burdened by its timing in the hot September, the lack of a dubbed version and the few screenings, lands at #9 with the shameful 6,405. Given its qualities, though, even this result can be considered too much... 

The top ten is rounded up by Cowboys and Aliens and a total of 207,579 so far. 

The first ten are left this week by the last instalment of Harry Potter. The movie has earned 794,523, which is good but nowhere near the record-breaking results worldwide. Having in mind it lacks the ingredients that drive the Bulgarian audience mad, i.e. awfully dubbed CGI kids-friendly movies, pirates or Vin Diesel, we should all be happy for Harry and his pals. And, not having in mind inflation and the 3D boost, it's the best result of a Harry Potter movie in the country.

The Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes also says farewell to the top ten, with the good, though unspectacular, 255,603.

Compared to my last week projections, The Zookeper came somewhat close to my 40,000 expaction, while the results of The Nutcracker in 3D met exactly 50% of my 12,000 forecast.

Next weekend's forecasts:

Johnny English Reborn - 65,000
Drive - 15,000
Final Destination 5 - 35,000
