I will leave this open until at least 8pm tomorrow so hopefully we can get at least double figures in votes.

11th September 2026 - 13th September 2026 1. (NE) Practical Magic 2 - £2,798,771 Weeks: 1 (£2,798,771) 2. (NE) Oasis: Don't Look Back In Anger - £2,656,988 Weeks: 1 (£2,656,988) 3.

(NE) Raiders Of The Lost Ark (45th Anniversary Re-Release) - £241,149 Weeks: 1 (£241,149) 10. (09) Coyote vs. Acme - £139,298 (-52%) Weeks: 3 (£1,958,847) Falling out: Toy Story 5 (12 weeks) The End Of Oak Street (4 weeks) Minions & Monsters (1 week*) *In this run The Dog Stars (2 weeks) Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie (5 weeks) Ending the Spider-Man/Odyssey monopoly after six-weeks, we have a brand-new top 3 this week led by legacy-sequel ‘Practical Magic 2’ (£2,798,771) that tops the chart 27 years after the original did the same in January 1999. That film only made about £3.3 million in total which this will beat in the week. Susanne Bier takes the directing job this time with Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman returning as two witches cursed to never be able to fall in love. Opening at #2 and almost getting the #1 with previews, music documentary ‘Oasis: Don’t Look Back In Anger’ (£2,656,988, £1.6 million without previews) has one of the best openings of the genre of all-time. Earning the bronze medal behind ‘Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour’ (£5,729,998, #1, 2023) and ‘Michael Jackson: This Is It’ (£4,877,255, #1, 2009). This tracks last year’s historic comeback of their stadium tour and performed much stronger than their previous documentary, ‘Supersonic’ (£542,263, #5, 2016). Opening at #3 is a film that ironically sounds a bit dry when you hear of its concept (discussions in the war room about if the weather will be good enough to perform the D-Day landings), ‘Pressure’ (£2,058,089, £1.5 million without previews). But this have earned rave reviews and has opened strong despite not making much impact in its summer release in the US. Andrew Scott leads the cast and it’s his biggest opener as a lead (third overall behind ‘Spectre’ and ‘1917’) and sees recent Oscar-winner Brendan Fraser in a supporting role. ‘Fall 2’ (subtitled ‘Deadpoint’ in the US) opens at #6 this week with £479,264 (£372k without previews). This is the sequel to the 2022 film that saw two girls get stuck up atop a 2000ft broadcasting tower. This sequel goes larger, moving the action to Thailand, and is pays off with a debut double the £220,270 that ‘Fall’ (#13, 2022) opened with. The film opened a week earlier in the US and missed their weekly top 10. The final new entry this week is ‘Runner’ (£382,665, #9). Not to be confused with the Gal Gadot disaster ‘The Runner’ which released on Prime last weekend, this is instead an buddy comedy starring Alan Ritchson and Owen Wilson as two people who have to transport an organ for a vital transplant. We also see a re-entry for the 45th anniversary re-release of ‘Raiders Of The Lost Ark’ (£241,149, #9). After six weeks at #1, ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ is finally off the top spot and falls to #5 after a 49% drop which is pretty much in line with what it’s done every week since release. It is now the 3rd biggest film of all-time after passing the £98 million of ‘No Time To Die’. ‘The Odyssey’ finally climbs above ‘Spider-Man’ after weeks of threatening but does it a week too late as it falls to #4 (-42%). With £84.5 million, this is now also in the top 10 films of all-time. The final two films holding in the top 10 this week are ‘Insidious: Out Of The Further’ (-40%) and ‘Coyote Vs. Acme’ (-52%). The former is now the second biggest film in the franchise while the later has nearly hit £2 million. There are no further new entries in the top 15 but we do see ‘Mirzapur: The Movie’ (#15) climb into it in its second week. Next week sees the openings of ‘Resident Evil’, ‘Shaun The Sheep: The Beast Of Mossy Bottom’, ‘Bad Apples’, ‘De Gaulle: Part 2: Liberte’, ‘Premature’, ‘The Cycle Of Love’ and ‘Queen At Sea’. We also see re-releases of ‘The Transformers: The Movie’ and ‘Whisper Of The Heart’. Can any of them top the charts? ~ Summer Box Office Top 5: 1. (01) Spider-Man: Brand New Day - £98,117,216 2. (02) The Odyssey - £84,545,888 3. (03) Toy Story 5 - £58,351,195 4. (04) The Devil Wears Prada 2 - £34.2 million 5. (05) Obsession - £19.9 million Obsession and Minions & Monsters are pretty much level now. I couldn't tell you which one has made more but the momentum is with Minions.

Honeymoon Avenue imagine kiss me Moonlight shut up Intro intro (end of the world) raindrops (an angel cried) I really could have gone with any of the top three. Like Jade, I can see 'kiss me' eventually being top but I've been obsessed with 'Honeymoon Avenue' since the tour and I think this is the only chance I'll have to vote for Yours Truly. 'raindrops' loses the battle of the intros. Mainly for being so short.

In the same vein as other forums have previously done, we're starting a game to create our perfect Ariana album. We will start with a poll that includes the opening track from each of Ariana's eight studio albums and we will vote on our favourite (and least-favourite) to collate her strongest opener. We will then continue for each track two, three, etc. I'll keep this open for the next few days to give everyone a chance to vote. Feel free to post your full rankings in the replies!

I think the second film was comfortably better than the first! The first one feels so generic. I watched them both again recently and the first feels like it's 70% montage of Malia nightlife! This particular joke gets me every time in the second film:

4th September 2026 - 6th September 2026 1. (01) Spider-Man: Brand New Day - £1,635,798 (-41%) Weeks: 6 (£96,295,305) 2. (02) The Odyssey - £1,530,041 (-37%) Weeks: 8 (£82,810,143) 3. (03) Insidious: Out Of The Further - £757,954 (-44%) Weeks: 3 (£6,485,737) 4. (10) Toy Story 5 - £418,333 (-13%) Weeks: 12 (£58,216,759) 5. (06) The End Of Oak Street - £354,409 (-46%) Weeks: 4 (£6,903,608) 6. (11) Minions & Monsters - £350,196 (-16%) Weeks: 10 (£19,786,791) 7. (NE) The Death Of Robin Hood - £316,129 Weeks: 1 (£316,129) 8. (05) The Dog Stars - £304,763 (-71%) Weeks: 2 (£1,877,573) 9. (04) Coyote vs. Acme - £289,772 (-73%) Weeks: 2 (£1,693,626) 10. (08) Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie - £275,133 (-46%) Weeks: 5 (£6,115,020) Falling out: Harry Potter And The Philosopher's Stone (25th Anniversary Re-Release) (1 week) One Night Only (1 week) The Summer might be over but audiences are not yet ready to let go as we have a sixth unchanged week in the top 2 with ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ staying at #1 after a 41% drop ahead of ‘The Odyssey’ that holds at #2 after a 36% drop. The former is now less than £4 million away from becoming the third ever film to gross £100 million in the UK while the later is just over £1 million away from entering the all-time top 10. The top 3 is even unchanged for a third week where ‘Insidious: Out Of The Further’ holds well (-44%) and only needs about £700k to become the second biggest film in the franchise. There’s only one new entry to the top 10 this week and even that would have missed without previews. ‘The Death Of Robin Hood’ (£316,129, £245k without previews, #7) is the latest adaptation of the famous folklore and sees Hugh Jackman portray a regretful, murderous version of the character at the later stage of his life. This is the third feature from director Michael Sarnoski who has previously made ‘Pig’ (£47,976, #20, 2021) and ‘A Quiet Place: Day One’ (£2,933,721, #2, 2024). Last week’s debuts see harsh drops as ‘The Dog Stars’ (-71%) and ‘Coyote Vs Acme’ (-73%) both lose nearly three-quarters of business. Without previews, these holds are nicer (-61% and -23% respectively). Both films end the weekend just short of £2 million. This weekend was National Cinema Day but it didn’t have the same sort of boost as usual. I think having the Bank Holiday last weekend as well as kids still being on summer holidays proved a better pull last week. It did help the kids films though as ‘Toy Story 5’ climbs six positions after a 13% drop while ‘Minions & Monsters’ (-16%) re-enters the top 10. The later is now closing in on £20 million and a place in the overall summer top 5. ‘The End Of Oak Street’ and ‘Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie’ both have similar holds (-46%) and are both now over £6 million in total. There is one further new entry in the #11-15 section: ‘Leviticus’ (#14). We also see re-entries for ‘Cars’ (#11) and ‘Terminator 2: Judgment Day’ (#15). Next week sees the openings of ‘Practical Magic 2’, ‘Oasis: Don’t Look Back In Anger’, ‘Fall 2’, ‘Pressure’, ‘Runner’, ‘Just An Illusion’ and ‘Unidentified Murder’. We also see re-releases of ‘The Passion Of The Christ’ and ‘Raiders Of The Lost Ark’. Can any of them top the charts? ~ Summer Box Office Top 5: 1. (01) Spider-Man: Brand New Day - £96,295,305 2. (02) The Odyssey - £82,810,143 3. (03) Toy Story 5 - £58,216,759 4. (04) The Devil Wears Prada 2 - £34.2 million 5. (05) Obsession - £19.9 million Obsession probably has one final week in the top 5 before 'Minions & Monsters' makes officially takes that 5th spot.

Pretty funny to see that Tom Hardy now has a charting rap album!

THE song of the summer!!!!!

Just to show how much stronger the lower end of the box office has been at the lower end of the chart compared to a last month, we had three films debut with £100k+ this week and three re-releases that all miss the top 15! 16. Rise Of The Footsoldier: Retribution - £274,681 21. Bitter Christmas - £162,528 25. De Gaulle: Resistance- £100,515 19. Kiki's Delivery Service - £208,032 20. The Fast And The Furious - £198,280 ?. La La Land - £118k 'Unmdham' opened at #12 with £17,637 a few weeks ago!

The rule with the box office has always been to count the full box office run for films in these sorts lists. So the Summer Box office only considers any films released between May-August inclusively but includes any money they make after those months. It's why we usually have to wait until March/April until we can confirm the final box office of the previous year.

(08) Toy Story 5 - £478,917 (+26%) Weeks: 11 (£57,410,283) Falling out: Spa Weekend (1 week) Bethlehem Kadumba Unit (1 week) Mutiny (1 week) Tony (2 weeks) Appropriately, the final weekend of Summer 2026 ends with ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ still ruling the roost for a 5th weekend, making it the longest running #1 since ‘Wonka’ did it when I first started posting these charts across 2023/24. It does it after a 23% drop which accounts to another £2.8 million which helps it pass ‘Avengers: Endgame’ to become the 8th biggest release of all-time. It’s closest competition for the full-five weeks has been ‘The Odyssey’ which edges ever closer to a return to #1 after a 13% drop sees it add £2.4 million. It’s up to 13th in the all-time list and will pass ‘Titanic’ very soon, potentially with today’s bank holiday gross. Helped by extensive previews, the highest new entry this week is ‘Coyote vs. Acme’ (£1,077,962, £374k without previews, #4). This opening includes one full week and two weekends and, if we just used the 3-day gross, it would have missed the top 10. This has had a storied journey into cinemas and has opened stronger in the US, probably thanks to all the controversy, debuting at #2 over there. Originally set to release in cinemas by Warner Bros. in the ‘Barbie’ slot against ‘Oppenheimer’ in 2023, this Loony Tunes spin-off was instead shelved as part of a tax write-off alongside ‘Batgirl’ and ‘Scoob! Holiday Haunt’. Public outcry was fierce and, although it wasn’t enough for the other two, it did convince Warner Bros. to instead sell the film with Ketchup Entertainment being the eventual winners for $50 million. It has a long way to go to win them their money back but strong word-of-mouth will help. Also opening in the top 5 is Ridley Scott’s latest, ‘The Dog Stars’ (£1,048,212, £781k without previews, #5). An apocalyptic thriller with a big-name cast (Jacob Elordi, Margaret Qualley, Josh Brolin, Guy Pearce), this is an adaptation of a novel from 2012 and is Scott’s third worst opening since 2010. It’s pretty much on par with the £1,161,475 that ‘All The Money In The World’ (#6) opened with in 2018. The third-and-final new entry this week is ‘One Night Only’ (£501,799, £462k without previews, #9). This is the latest Rom-Com from a Will Gluck who has previously directed ‘Easy A’, ‘Friends With Benefits’, ‘Anyone But You’ and for a slight chance-of-pace, the ‘Peter Rabbit’ films). Starring Monica Barbaro and Callum Turner, this has been labelled as ‘The Sex Purge’ due to it’s barmy premise and has largely left critics very confused. On the re-entry front, the 25th (yikes) anniversary re-release of ‘Harry Potter And The Philosopher’s Stone’ opens at #6 with £523k. It made a very healthy £66 million in 2001 which saw it finish as the 2nd biggest film in the franchise behind the closer. For years, the stereotype surrounding horror films were that they open well and die off quickly. First ‘Obsession’ made a mockery of that belief with it’s 13-week run in the top 10 and now ‘Insidious: Out Of The Further’ is also proving it wrong with a 39% drop in week 2. With £4.9 million in the bank, it has already outgrossed ‘Insidious: Chapter 3’ (£4 million) and will be looking to beat the £8 million of franchise peak ‘Insidious: The Red Door’. It is tracking only slightly behind it so far. Parents have been taking advantage of the final weekend of summer holidays with ‘Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie’ (+7%), ‘Toy Story 5’ (+26%) and, outside of the top 10, ‘Minions & Monsters’ (+36%) all registering increases. The later is now up to £19 million and is making one final push to overtake ‘Obsession’ to enter the summer top 5. The final holder to discuss is ‘The End Of Oak Street’ which loses 29% in week three to hit £6 million. There are two further new entries in the #11-15 section: ‘Ghost: 2 Big 2 Rig’ (#13) and ‘Toxic’ (#14). Next week is National Cinema Day where tickets will be £4 and sees the openings of ‘The Death Of Robin Hood’, ‘Leviticus’, ‘The Incomer’, ‘Late Fame‘, ‘Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass’ and ‘Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour: Live From Paris’. We also see re-releases of ‘Terminator 2: Judgement Day’, ‘The Hunger Games’, ‘The Hunger Games: Catching Fire’, ‘The Hunger Games: Mockingjay: Part 1,’ ‘The Hunger Games: Mockingjay: Part 2’, ‘The Hunger Games: The Ballad Of Songbirds And Snakes’, ‘Cars’, ‘Fall’, ‘Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home’ and ‘Shaun The Sheep: Farmageddon’. Can any of them top the charts? ~ Summer Box Office Top 5: 1. (01) Spider-Man: Brand New Day - £92,816,098 2. (02) The Odyssey - £79,540,966 3. (03) Toy Story 5 - £57,410,283 4. (04) The Devil Wears Prada 2 - £34.2 million 5. (05) Obsession - £19.9 million Summer 2026 is officially over and the top 4 is set in stone. However, Minions & Monsters is now less than £1 million behind Obsession so could make a last-minute push to finish in that 5th spot in the coming weeks.

So glad that I got to go tonight. The whole 'kiss me - oh well - nowhere, nobody - like i do' section was amazing! The post-concert blues are going to be VERY strong this time. My last 5 days have been completely dominated by Ariana: concerts, going to the pop-up store, streaming her whole discography back-to-back. I don't want to have to go back home tomorrow. ☹️

Last night was everything. ❤️ Hearing One Last Time live again made me cry. It took me straight back to One Love Manchester. The vocals during 'Dangerous Woman' were insane. She certainly hasn't lost it. I might have another show to look forward to now as well!

On the train to London now for tonight. I’m so excited!!!! 7 years has been far too long.
