周末票房基本形勢上與周四相距不遠,全日錄得票房較周四爬升接近一倍,不過各片於爬升比率上並不平均,而且新開畫電影比起仍在上映中電影的爬升幅度不足。
霍士發行由九把刀執導的台灣電影《那些年,我們一起追的女孩》在同期對手較弱下繼續贏到開巷,周日獲增場五成後於75院映433場,錄得接近五萬五千人次,除較周四爬升一倍外,票房更較上周日有所上升,反映了電影成為話題與熱潮後,令不少觀眾再度翻看推動票房,也為電影於短短11天間錄得2,843萬,可望於今天嘗試挑戰三千萬大關。觀乎下周戲碼仍未算強下,相信未來一周可衝破四千萬。
同樣走勢理想的還有安樂發行的印度電影《作死不離3兄弟》,電影於第九周的周日安排於13院映51場,結果每場錄得逾百人次,票房收入更較上周日多一萬,較周四更爬升兩倍四,可見電影的口碑在同期對手較弱下仍具市場及翻看客源,為電影於60天累積1,365萬,難怪電影公司可以在推出新一款宣傳海報上寫出「邁向二千萬」的句語。
即使是其他前列的上映中電影,票房也有不俗的爬升,如寰亞發行杜琪峰執導的《奪命金》,周日雖維持39院映191場,但亦錄得逾倍的爬升,入場人次接近八千,為電影累積11天至676萬,而迪士尼發行的《鐵甲鋼拳》於32院映77場下錄得近五千人次,票房爬升比達一倍六,累積25天達1,365萬。即使是國慶當期的《特務戇J之救國大業》只映九場亦獲平均40人次,上映32天後距離二千五百萬只差兩萬五千,相信也不成問題。
反觀一眾新開畫電影,在吸引力不足下周日票房爬升未見特別理想。霍士發行的《潛逃時空》在開畫較佳後周日獲增場近一成至42院映234場,雖然周日票房達百萬以上,但票房爬升比只達六成半,累積四天達377萬,成績只算不過不失。
三部以萬聖節來「應節」電影結果票房皆仆,三者於周日均出現縮場,當中驕陽發行的《黑嚇》於21院映88場下,周日票房竟與周四相若,累積只達44萬。得利發行的《凶宅藏私》周日大幅縮場兩成下於廿院映70場,結果與《黑嚇》同樣獲得每場17人次,累積則達26萬。華語電影方面,嘉樂發行影王朝港片《猛鬼愛情故事》周日在縮場約一成下於26院映101場雖然賬面上則《凶宅藏私》相若,但每場人次只有12左右,累積只有31萬,未知會否打破葉念琛執導電影票房新低。

Fright films are losing their appeal. This is all due to terrible exhibitors scheduling decisions. You cannot keep showing similar movies for weeks and not expecting audience fatigue. Halloween or not, it doesn’t matter. Looking back, FINAL DESTINATION 5’s HK$9 million gross is not shabby afterall.
《作死不離3兄弟》continues its miraculous run, but crossing HK$20 million remains uncertain. It is starting to look not so good for other movies competing for screens. While the movie is good, it is probably not great enough for repeat viewings inside a cinema. Most of all, Broadway cinemas are known to support obscure movies, and with more film festivals on the horizon, it is about time arthouse audiences turn their attention to other films.
I think《那些年,我們一起追的女孩》will slow down significantly this week. Saw the movie at Cyberport on a morning show, the movie is rated IIB but the screening is sold out, with teenage girls surrounding me. Funny this movie occasionally is too risque for its young female audience, heard a lot of pretentious comments. I am pretty sure young male adults will enjoy this more, but overall it is a sweet movie. Perhaps it will be better for movie lovers had the movie not been this popular, as backlash to its success is inevitable.
《奪命金》showed some real hope of besting WALL STREET MONEY SLEEPS, but it still has no shot at crossing HK$10 million. It better register a less than 40% drop on its third Thursday, as more financial related foreign movies start rolling out in Hong Kong soon.
《潛逃時空》is the sort of sci-fi thrillers that will lose audience interest quick if it was not good. Judging from rotten tomatoes reviews, it probably fails to deliver. Its 60% plus weekend surge in HK is hardly acceptable for Hollywood commercial movies, but in a season full of Hollywood flops (other than 《鐵甲鋼拳》), it isn’t bad, although this means Fox had a 2nd consecutive middling performer after WHAT’S YOUR NUMBER. One thing for certain, Fox seems to be very capable of securing screens for its first run HK movies, doing a much better job than all other distributors.
