Sam Mandes critically acclaimed movie 1917 makes its UK debut at the top of the box office knocking Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker down to number 3 with Little Women climbing to 2.

1917

The critically acclaimed movie directed by Sam Mendes makes its UK debut at the top of the box office with a opening weekend gross of £7.4 Million.

It hard to compare this to his previous films as the famed director was behind the camera for the Bond movie Skyfall which opening in the UK to £20 Million.

In comparison to his non Bond movies it is his best opening to date, and with the awards season in full flow and the film nominated and winning many awards including Oscars and Golden Globes the final gross could high.

Little Women

Greta Gerwigs version of the classic novel goes up the box office this weekend to number 2 with a weekend gross of £2 million.

This puts the films total gross at £13.2 Million after 3 weeks of release.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

J.J. Abrams final Star Wars movie in the Skywalker saga falls from the top to number 3 this week with a weekend take of £1.8 Million.

The film has ben on general release now for 4 weeks and has taken an excellent £54.8 Million and it is the highest total grossing movie one this weeks box office.

As good as this is it is still the lowest grossing from of the sequel trilogy which started with Star Wars: The Force Awaken and then was followed by Star Wars: The Last jedi.

The Gentlemen

Guy Ritchies return to London based gangster movies falls to 4 this weekend with £1.7 Million for a 2 week total of £5.9 Million.

Jumanji: The Next Level

Dwayne Johnson sequel movie falls to 5 this weekend with £1.69 Million for a 5 week total of £30.0 Million.

The film is running just a little lower than the previous film in the series and will most likely end up with a gross just a little lower at around the £35 Million mark.

Frozen II

Disneys sequel animated movie falls to number 7 this week but has he longest run on the box office with 8 weeks, it has taken a UK total gross of £51.2 Million.

This week a new release takes over at the top of the chart in the shape of the Luc Besson directed Lucy.

Starring Scarlett Johansson the film was released at UK cinemas in August of 2014 where it entered the box office chart at number 1 and stayed there for 2 weeks.

It took £ 3.07 million on it's debut week of release and stuck around the box office chart for 7 weeks in the top 15 and then another 3 outside.

During it's release it made a total gross of £14.6 million making it the 292nd highest grossing film of all time in the UK.

Last weeks top film, Left Behind, falls to number 3 this week after a single week at the top.

Also new this week is Before I Go to Sleep at 2.

Worthy of a mention also, for another week, is Frozen which this week slips down from number 2 to number 7, after 42 weeks inside the top 5 this is it's first time this low.

Despite it being Halloween new horror film Ouija could not make it's way to the top of the UK box office and instead the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles went back to the top in their third week of release.

Taking nearly £1.5 million for the weekend the Turtles have now spent 3 weeks on release and have taken a total of £11.7 million. The return of the Turtles for a new generation has been a massive success and has so far taken $434.5 million across the world.

Highest new film this week is Ouija which has taken £1.4 million, arguably because of the Halloween weekend and people looking for a fright, the film could disappear quite quickly.

Last weeks top film, Fury, falls to number 3 this week with £1.2 million. It was in reality a very tight top 3 this week with only about £200,000 separating the top films.

Historical charts

A year ago - Thor: The Dark World took the top spot on it's opening weekend knocking Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 into the runner up spot.

Five years ago - In the wake of his death the documentary about Michael Jacksons concerts that never happend This Is It took the top spot knocking Pixars Up down the two.

Ten years ago - Shark Tale hung onto the top spot for a second week with the highest new film coming in at 4 in the shape of Finding Neverland.

Fifteen years ago - Halloween took the box office by storm with The Blair Witch Project climbing to the top spot on it's second week of release, the highest new film was Vampires right down in seventh place.

I know this is one of those events we knew was coming, and sooner rather than later and ign.com have now got virtual confirmation from Lucasfilms Director of Fan Relations Steve Sansweet that a Blu-ray box set of all 6 films has been in the works for a couple of years now.

He does say that this isn't the long rumored and fast becoming legendary Ultimate box se but Sansweet says ”We have been at work for a couple of years working on—I won't call it the Ultimate Set because we keep finding stuff—but, a very full set of all six movies on Blu-ray with lots of extra material. We're finding all kinds of scenes from dailies that have never been seen before. Beyond all of those things that you know about… there are some real treasures.”, so after this we can expect even more, probably on the next media format if there is one.

So what's the date for this? Soon can mean years down the line in Blu-ray production time, but the American site The Digital Bits is reporting that it has been told by it's industry insiders of an October 2011 date has been quietly on the slate for a while.

It's no surprise that we will have a high def version of the Star Wars films sometime in the future to add to the Betamax, VHS (multiple versions) and both version on DVD, and come late 2011 seems a reasonable time scale for the films, lets hope this is it, or will the touted 3D version be with us by 2012, good job we love these films.
