‘Tadeo Jones 3’ remains number 1 at the Spanish box office five weeks after its premiere

Five weeks after its premiere, ‘Tadeo Jones 3: The Emerald Table’ returns to the top spot at the Spanish box office, although it has not been a consecutive success. Enrique Gato’s film adds another € 631,653 to a total that is already close to € 8.9 million. Its drop is only 7% and its average on the 415 screens it was projected on was 1,522 euros thanks to 100,818 people who went to see it. In second place was the first live show of ‘Don’t worry, dear’, the controversial film (at least in its promotion) by Olivia Wilde. Warner Bros released it in 334 theaters where it had a gross average of € 1,269 per screen. It started on the bill with € 474,670, a relative success that is unlikely to be maintained next week.

In third position and third week, the romantic comedy of George Clooney and Julia Roberts, ‘Journey to Heaven’ adds 431,338 euros to its total of 2.53 million. Its drop is 27% so, given what we have seen, we can consider that it has a very good performance. After her another premiere, “Model 77”, which Disney has brought to 335 cinemas. Directed by Alberto Rodríguez, this prison thriller, like Wilde’s film, had a lukewarm opening, for just € 418,080 and an average of € 1,248 per theater. Rounding out the top 5 is another Spanish title, ‘La vida padre’, which fell 8% in the second week of release and brought 55,501 admissions to theaters. Also by Paramount, this comedy has not yet reached the million euros in total, because between this 23 and 25 September it added only 376,901 euros.

The hurricane that was ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ last December returns to theaters with 11 extra minutes which we have already told you about here, but it seems that this marketing strategy did not convince the public and only filled 26,000 seats. It therefore remains in sixth position with a collection of 178 thousand euros. Even if we consider that “The more fun stuff version” is in its first week, the film with Tom Holland is in Spain over 28 million euros in its global. A step back and also from Sony, ‘The Invitation’ suffers the most marked drop in the ranking, of 38%, and adds only 170 thousand euros on the 317 screens where it was screened during its second week of release.

The week’s children’s release, ‘The World Searchers’, is in eighth place and pocketed just € 162,926. Flins y Piniculas opted for it in 246 cinemas and theaters, for which it remained with a regular average of 662 euros. The top 10 ‘Bullet Train’ closes in its eighth week on the bill (with € 151,200) and ‘Father there is no more than a 3’ in the eleventh (with 116,000 euros and a decrease of only 9%).

In conclusion, September greets with a Spanish box office that has collected 400 thousand euros more than the previous weekend, which represents a growth of 11%, but hardly exceed 3.5 million euros among the 20 most viewed titles, so this is still not good news for our industry.
