International Presale Tracking (September 24). Joker: Folie á Deux eyeing $10.34M USD opening in Mexico compared to the 2019 film’s $13.50M. Joker presales in South Korea are slightly behind GotG3 and Deadpool & Wolverine. In Brazil, The Forge is possibly looking at a small overperformance.

INTERNATIONAL PRESALES

Brazil

• ThatWaluigiDude (After the weak results, many chains decided to extend the promotional period. Depending of the chain some will discount tickets the next week too, others will do the next two weeks, some only on the weekdays (September 19).)

• ThatWaluigiDude (The Forge: The Forge started the pre-sales a few days ago. Though they are selling in too few screens to make an assumption, it could be looking for a small overperfomance on Brazil (September 21).)

• keysersoze123 (Ouch. This is one of the few markets one would expect growth. This is definite sign for the movie's OS potential (September 11).)

• ThatWaluigiDude (Based on the current pace of pre-sales, Joker 2 is being estimated (unoficially, not by Warner) an opening of R$20M ($3.59M USD). The first movie had the october record with an R$31M opening (September 11). Moving healthly. It have doubled the sales of the first day, though the signs are showing that it will probably not go as big as the first (September 10). The first 24 hours of pre-sales from Joker were around 10x from Alien Romulus, 4x Furiosa's but 1/7 of Deadpool & Wolverine. A pretty good start though to be honest I was expecting a bigger impact giving the first one's performance in Brazil (September 5).)

China: Presales and Maoyan Want to See from Firefox72

• Firefox72 (Transformers One 3rd party media projections: $21M-$42M)

• Firefox72 (Venom: The Last Dance 3rd party media projections: $71M-$95M)

Germany

• Giesi (What are the expectations for the Interstellar rerelease? Pre-sales seem to be pretty decent as far as I can see (September 22).)

India

• Charlie Jatinder (Joker 2 tix on sale in India. As of now, set to enjoy a solo opening day on a huge national holiday. Has the potential to post a gigantic first day for a Hollywood film in India (September 7).)

Mexico

• Carlangonz (Joker: Folie a Deux: $14.13M Pesos ($0.73M USD) WED preview comp. It added IMAX shows which will be sharing for two days with Talking Heads: Stop Making Sense but overall is not particularly outstanding tbh; falling below Flash in occupancy and pace for the whole weekend is quite rough but even if it still drops in small margins should make up the difference with a higher ATP. I'm still counting on it coming close to $20M Pesos ($1.03M USD) in previews but Warner is slowing down the marketing and with no press junkets or major coverage (Venice was a huge deal that kept the conversation for the whole month leading to the release of the first one) will be tough to sustain momentum (September 23). Couldn't take 24-Hour data but given sales started at 9AM, I don't think there was significant demand to move the neddle from what it already looked like. Is looking like o/u $20M Pesos ($1.03M USD) in previews and o/u $200M Pesos ($10.34M USD) for the whole weekend. Can't say is doing bad like elsewhere but it does is a step down from first Joker first weekend (FSS). We'll see how it paces on the upcoming days (September 20). After first 12 hours of sales for previews: 784 tickets sold and 5.31% occupancy compared to 634/6.3% for The Flash, 825/5.34% for Fast X, and 3475/68.88% for FNAF at the same point after tickets' launch (September 19). Tickets for Joker: Folie a Deux going on sale this Thursday. Releases October 3rd with night previews starting at 7PM on the 2nd. First set of shows are popping up and allocation is looking more like The Flash rather than Deadpool & Wolverine. Very curious to see how this one goes after how sales are going in US/CAN and Brazil (September 17). Tickets for Folie a Deux won't come out for another week. Was expecting a full 3-week window but Warner is going quietly (September 9).)

South Korea

• Flip (Joker: Folie à Deux: (T-10): 27.1k (+9.1k) (Deadpool & Wolverine was at 32.8k on T-11 while GotG3 was 28.1k at T-10)(September 21). (T-14): 18.0k (Deadpool 3 was at 20.1k at T-15 and Guardians of the Galaxy 3 was at 28.1k on T-10) (September 17). It’s not useful to compare since sales have just started, but I think it’s around equal with Deadpool 3, maybe ahead by the slimmest of margins (September 15). Joker presales also started, and they’re at 10k currently (September 13).)

United Kingdom

• Boxofficerules (My local cineworld added a second showing of the Terrifier double bill and that one is selling fast (September 19).)
