Common questions
What does Box Office Bell follow?
The release: when a film lands in the UK, where it can be watched, and how it performed once it was out. Films holds the titles, Box office carries the takings as reported, Streaming tracks where things move next, and Industry and Festivals cover the trade and the circuit.
Are the box office numbers yours?
No. Every figure comes from a named source such as a studio, a distributor or a trade publication, and it is credited and linked in the piece. Weekend figures are usually estimates when first published and are revised afterwards, which the reporting reflects.
Do you review films?
No. Box Office Bell reports on releases and their performance rather than judging them, and where a verdict appears it belongs to the critic or publication being summarised. There are no scores of our own anywhere on the site.
Does anyone sign the pieces?
Nobody is credited by name. Each piece is written with automated assistance from the reporting it summarises, and the source publication takes the author's place, as Sources and methods explains.
How often does new material land?
Pieces appear through the day as reporting lands, so the front page reorders itself. Release Fridays and results reporting produce the busiest runs.
Does the site set cookies or run ads?
Neither. There is no analytics, no advertising and nothing loaded from a third-party host, so no consent banner is needed. Only your light or dark preference is kept, in your own browser.
