  1. But why would that be "corrupting"??  Why shouldn't Hollywood get a bigger share of "their" movie??  Other countries are 40%-45% so why is China so low & they want it even lower- that one year holding up payment to get an even lower cut.  If they want to see Hollywood movies - and recent box office shows filmgoers do - they should pay a fair price like everyone else - I see no problem with HW wanting a fair cut on their product.

     

    Because the more important your market, the more negociating power you have. 25% of FF7's gross will still be nearly $100 which is more than they'll get in any other OS market despite the 40-45% shares. If they're not happy the Chinese government would just tell them 'Well bye bye then' and they'd get nothing instead of 20-25%.

  2. It depends on how movies generally behave in this market. In Japan a daily decline of 13% on a sunday would be a bad sign for legs but how does it work in SK ? Is sunday stronger than saturday on average or the opposite ?

     

    edit : Thanks for the answer Rsyu.

  3. How much China Film takes home from FF7 gross?

    Is this an upfront deal or do they get a % of gross?

    How much Universal really gets out of this deal?

    I heard the studios only get a pittance. 

    How come exhibitors, local or abroad, have so much power

    in getting their share?

     

    Because in the case of China, when your market is set to become the #1 market in the world, you have a lot of negociating power.

  5. I see. Thanks for that. However, looking at it in detail, last weekend those chains made up a market share of 37.2% for Conan and 37.1% for DBZ over the weekend for the screens and yet when it came to admissions the market share of the 5 chains was over 40% for both nearing 42% for Conan.

     

    Basically, you can't really take the market share % for screens and expand it to admissions.
