Nigerians Spent N3.1bn In Cinemas In H1 2019 – Report by Ravon: 11:20pm On Jul 15, 2019 |
Nigerians spent nearly 3, 124, 026, 959 billion Naira to watch box office movies at the cinemas between January and June 2019. News Agency of Nigeria reports that the figures were according to data provided by cinemas and gathered by the Cinema Exhibitors Association of Nigeria. The year opened with ‘Aquaman’, ‘Chief Daddy’ and ‘Up North’ sitting on the top three of the chart with estimated combined earnings of 168, 263, 512 million Naira. The movies maintained their positions until the fourth week when ‘Glass’ debuted at number one with ‘Aquaman’ taking second place and ‘Chief Daddy’, third booting ‘Up North’ to fourth place. This led to combined earnings of 91, 409, 100 million Naira which fell to 77, 259, 811 million Naira as January closed with Kevin Hart’s ‘The Upside’ kicking ‘Chief Daddy’ to fourth place. NAN reports that earnings remained low for February, making it the lowest grossing month with a total of 291, 843, 044 million Naira. Top spots were alternated between ‘Alita’, ‘Cold Pursuit’, ‘What Men Want’, ‘Escape Room’ and ‘The Upside’. By March, viewership picked up steadily and the earnings were almost doubled from that of February leading to a total of 434, 432, 431 million Naira. ‘What Men Want’, ‘Alita’, ‘Hire A Woman’, ‘She Is’, ‘Us’ and ‘Babymamas’ enjoyed a relatively good run in March but a chunk of the earnings and viewership went to Marvel’s flick ‘Captain Marvel’. At the beginning of April, ‘HellBoy’, ‘Shazam’, ‘Little’ and ‘Us’ continued to share the top spot with ‘Captain Marvel’ until the release of the much anticipated ‘Avengers: Endgame’. NAN also reports that with ‘Avengers: Endgame’, earnings from April climbed from 186, 929, 188 million Naira in its third week to 342, 382, 389 million Naira in its final week. The month, which is the highest grossing in 2019, closed with estimated total earnings of 734, 151, 060 million Naira due to a major boost from Disney’s ‘Endgame’. In May, there was a massive dip in earnings similar to that experienced in February. With ‘Endgame’, ‘The Intruder’ and ‘Longshot’, it earned a total of 367, 498, 554 million Naira. The fall in viewership is usual after a global holiday such as Christmas for December/January and Easter for April. The numbers picked up in June with ‘John Wick’, ‘Godzilla’ and ‘Aladdin’ leading the numbers. They were supported by ‘Anna’, ‘Men In Black’, ‘Dark Phoenix’ and ‘Bling Lagosians’. June opened with 161, 132, 714 million Naira but closed with 100, 663, 647 million Naira leading to a total earning of 576, 322, 779 million Naira.

Can’t remember when last I was at the cinema especially with the naija films invasion. The figure is probably right and it’s even more in the western world were things are more organized. |

GISpro: You as a scientist should know more than this. People are really suffering in this country. It's the middle class that can afford these phones and cars. What's the percentage of Nigerians in all 36 states that use a Samsung or iPhone? Aren't the China phones/Nokia phones far more common? Ever been to the North? Ever stayed among the illiterates? Don't let Twitter/Nairaland/social media fool you? Most Nigerians are poorer than you think. How many Nairalanders can afford a Keke Napep comfortably? 12 Likes 3 Shares |

wman: Don't mind them. The average class of Nigerians are the ones on Internet (Nairaland, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc). Have they thought of how many millions of Nigerians who are not online due to their extreme poverty level? We should tell ourselves the truth in this country. There's high level, I mean abject poverty in this country. 6 Likes |

This affirms that Nigeria is a wealthy country but the wealth is in the hands of little few who still picks the common wealth of the poor. The rich keeps getting richer at the expense of the poor. I tell you, we have more billionaires in this country that are far richer than Mr. Dangote. I seldom go to the cinemas because I get tired and sleep off expect the movie is an action movie and very interesting. However, anytime I visit I still see lot of people yet there’s no money. I still prefer streaming from my Netflix 2 Likes 1 Share |
