German cinema lists: super duo instead of horror door
In Germany, however, the horror film had to settle for a place further down the charts. Some 95,000 movie tickets were sold here over the weekend. It competes with Pixar’s “Elemental”, which also sold 95,000 tickets according to previous forecasts, for third place.
For that is “Indiana Jones and the Wheel of Destiny”, which attracted 165,000 visitors to the cinemas this weekend. In terms of sales and movie tickets sold only on weekends, the fifth Indy adventure is also at number 1.
The headlines in this country are mainly written by “Miraculous: Ladybug & Cat Noir – The Film”, which is aimed at children. Over the weekend, 150,000 tickets were sold, including previews, there are already 210,000. That’s a strong performance that could have been even greater. But the warm weather probably caused some parents to refrain from going to the cinema with their children. But, as is known, postpone is not cancel, so that these visits can be caught up in the coming weekends. It remains so exciting how stable the children’s film will be in the coming weeks.
