BuzzJack Platinum Member Joined: 7 February 2013 Posts: 11,975 User: 18,293	With the 'Anyone But You' hype finally slowing down and 'Wonka' too far behind to climb any higher, I think we can finally determine the EOY box office for 2023 in the UK. It's hard to find totals for any of the films (outside of the top 10) in GBP so most of these figures are slight estimations but the order should be right. I've discounted the re-release of 'Titanic' as it was originally released in 1997 but that would be #75 if it was included. Here are some of the notable positions outside of the top 100: 101. The Old Oak 102. Missing 104. Women Talking 106. Till 107. Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret. 108. Champions 112. Dream Scenario 114. Joy Ride 121. Scrapper 125. Polite Society 129. Bottoms 132. How To Have Sex 134. Sisu 136. Rise Of The Footsoldier: Vengeance 137. The Blackening 138. 80 For Brady 155. Eurovision: Grand Final Live 157. Beau Is Afraid 159. Big George Foreman 167. Pearl 173. May December 175. Theatre Camp 180. Marcell The Shell With Shoes On 186. Blackberry It's unfortunate that the final film of one of Britain's most legendary directors, Ken Loach, just misses out at #101.

This year the Christmas joy starts early with the cinema special André Rieu’s White Christmas. It will be a party you will never forget. André Rieu’s White Christmas is a filmed Christmas concert performance by the musician and his orchestra. From the first melody, you will be immersed in the incomparable Christmas atmosphere of André's winter world. Bemazed by the magnificently decorated Christmas palace, complete with snow, two ice rinks, beautiful winter settings, romantic lighting, red carpet, countless lights, 150 beautiful chandeliers and more than 50 Venetian chandeliers. Director: Michael Wiseman Cast: André Rieu Release Date: 2nd December 2023 Distributor: Piece of Magic Certification: PG Genre: Concert Rotten Tomatoes: n/a IMDb: 9.0 Top 15 Chart Run: 5-x (1 week) Opening Weekend: £1,001,095 (#5) In the year where event cinema really took off, we start the Top 100 with a concert film. Of course, André Rieu has already been a cinema-concert originator and this was the final of 3 releases from him in 2023 and also the most popular, as his other two '2023 Maastricht Concert: Love Is All Around' and 'Dublin 2023' just missed out on the top 100 (#113 & #115). This was only in cinemas for 1 week, so did well to sneak in.

This time they went to Italy but the film couldn't match the £4.2 million total of the original.

As the world faces its Second World War, John Halder, a good, intelligent German professor, finds himself pulled into a movement with unthinkable consequences. Director: Dominic Cooke Cast: David Tennant, Elliot Levey, Sharon Small Release Date: 20th April 2023 Distributor: National Theatre Certification: 15 Genre: Theatre Rotten Tomatoes: n/a IMDb: 8.3 Top 15 Chart Run: 14 (1 week) Opening Weekend: £117,421 (#14) One of two live theatre releases in the top 100 this year is 'Good'. This only had one week in the top 15 at the box office, but that is because most of it's grosses actually came from midweek showings that don't count towards the weekend totals. Well over half of it's total actually came from it's opening day (Thursday) where it got off to a very strong start.

Rye Lane - £1,260,000 (estimated) Tag along with two young Londoners recovering from breakups Two twenty-somethings, both reeling from bad break-ups, connect over the course of an eventful day in South London – helping each other deal with their nightmare exes, and potentially restoring their faith in romance. Director: Raine Allen-Miller Cast: David Jonsson, Vivian Oparah, Poppy Allen-Quarmby Release Date: 17th March 2023 Distributor: Disney Certification: 15 Genre: Rom-Com Rotten Tomatoes: 98% IMDb: 7.2 Top 15 Chart Run: 7-10-10-12 (4 weeks) Opening Weekend: £258,997 (#7) 'Rye Lane' brought back the Rom-Com 9 months before 'Anyone But You'. One of the best reviewed British films of 2023, this is the debut from director Raine Allen-Miller and received a lot of love for having a black-led cast in a genre that hasn't always been very diverse. A rare modern film that's under 90 minutes, what's not to love? It doesn't seem to have an official tagline so I just had to copy a headline from a promotional post about the film. The last confirmed figure I could find was actually slightly less than 'Good' so I had to go with an estimate that ranks it above that film.

After a Black Friday riot ends in tragedy, a mysterious Thanksgiving-inspired killer terrorizes Plymouth, Massachusetts - the birthplace of the holiday. Picking off residents one by one, what begins as random revenge killings are soon revealed to be part of a larger, sinister holiday plan. Director: Eli Roth Cast: Patrick Dempsey, Ty Olsson, Addison Rae Release Date: 16th November 2023 Distributor: Sony Certification: 18 Genre: Horror Rotten Tomatoes: 84% IMDb: 6.3 Top 15 Chart Run: 6-8-13 (3 weeks) Opening Weekend: £486,198 (#6) The third film to be made that started as one of the fake trailers attached to Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez's 'Grindhouse', Eli Roth's 'Thanksgiving' was a surprise critical hit. Fully embracing it's B-movie roots, Addison Rae gets her biggest role yet. We're always bombarded with new Christmas hits so it was nice to see a film based around another holiday, albeit one we don't celebrate here in the UK.

Vlogger Keith Gill sinks his life savings into GameStop stock and posts about it. When social media starts blowing up, so do his life and the lives of everyone following him. As a stock tip becomes a movement, everyone gets rich—until the billionaires fight back, and both sides find their worlds turned upside down. Director: Craig Gillespie Cast: Paul Dano, America Ferrera, Pete Davidson Release Date: 22nd September 2023 Distributor: Black Bear Certification: 15 Genre: Comedy Rotten Tomatoes: 84% IMDb: 6.9 Top 15 Chart Run: 5-10-14 (3 weeks) Opening Weekend: £506,095 (#5) Despite a stacked cast (Seth Rogen, Sebastian Stan, Shailene Woodley and Vincent D'Onofrio are amongst the other actors not named above), 'Dumb Money' ended up being a bit of a flop at the worldwide box office compared to its reported $30 million budget. In the same vein as 'The Big Short', it tries to turn a potentially dry financial scandal into something fun and digestible and the reviews suggest it was successful in that aim. It's definitely one on my too-watch list.

It's the first film to appear that has a £1 million+ opening weekend, but that's just because it dropped like a brick after a great start.

The 2nd film made about £4.2 million in 2016. This was was written and directed by franchise-star 'Nia Vardalos' in what must have been a huge passion project.

Dunki - £1,584,513 (estimated) A SOLDIER’S JOURNEY TO KEEP A PROMISE Four friends from a sleepy little village in Punjab share a common dream: to go to England. Their problem is that they have neither the visa nor the ticket. A soldier alights from a train one day, and their lives change. He gives them a soldier’s promise: He will take them to the land of their dreams. What follows is a hilarious and heartwarming tale of a perilous journey through the desert and the sea, but most crucially through the hinterlands of their mind.

This is instead a comedy/drama about immigration and is largely set in the UK which must have helped it's fortunes over here.

Having grown sick and tired of his centuries as Dracula’s lackey, Renfield finds a new lease on life — and maybe even redemption — when he falls for feisty, perennially angry traffic cop Rebecca Quincy. Director: Chris McKay Cast: Nicholas Hoult, Nicolas Cage, Awkwafina Release Date: 14th April 2023 Distributor: Universal Certification: 15 Genre: Comedy Rotten Tomatoes: 58% IMDb: 6.4 Top 15 Chart Run: 5-7-12 (3 weeks) Opening Weekend: £680,661 (#5) There seemed to be a fair bit of pre-release hype going into this one, we are in a bit of a Cage-aissance with 'Mandy, 'Pig' and 'The Unbearable Weight Of Massive Talent' getting lots of plaudits over the past few years and the opportunity to see him in one of his dream roles playing Dracula with such a fun premise seemed like a must-see. But then the middling reviews came in and all hype seemed to disappear. I though it was pretty decent when I saw it but maybe more suited to a streaming release.
