Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters grosses P78.2 million on opening weekend

Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters is an American fantasy-adventure film based on the Rick Riordan novel of the same name. It is a sequel to the 2010 film Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief and continues the adventures of Percy Jackson (Logan Lerman) and his friends, as they search for the Golden Fleece at the titular Sea of Monsters to save an ailing magical tree that protects their home from foes.
 

The film premiered in Philippine cinemas on August 7, 2013 and emerged on high seas when it docked no. 1 in the Phils.’ box-office arena on its opening weekend (August 7-11) with a total of P 78.2 million nationwide in almost 200 screens (in 2D and 3D) nationwide.

Here is the Philippines weekend box office chart in the period of August 7-11, 2013:

The opening weekend figure nails Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters as the Second Biggest Opening Weekend for a Fox film to open this year, next to the recently released blockbuster The Wolverine. Among all other foreign films and one local film playing on the same week, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters grabbed the greater chunk of the overall market share at 51%. Reaching a broader market base this time, the latest "Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters'" box-office sees a 126% increase over the previously released Percy Jackson: The Lightning Thief movie.

In addition to the latest wave of adventure and spectacular visual effects seen in the movie, its strong opening is also attributed to a solid throng of followers of the book series (authored by Rick Riordan) where the movie is based and to the unstoppable growth of Logan Lerman’s popularity locally.

The movie’s opening weekend admissions also totaled to a splashy catch of 443,702 nationwide from all screens where SM Mall of Asia took the lead with a box-office gross P 3.8 million, followed by SM North Edsa with P 3.45 million.  Trinoma tightly followed at 3rd spot with P3.41 million, SM Megamall is at 4th with P2.4 million and Greenbelt3 sums up as top 5th cinema earner with P 2.174 million.
