    Probably best to expect less from Japan and just be pleasantly surprised if it puts up decent numbers in the end.
  2. Jiffy
    Too bad for it, will probably keep it from contending against Frozen numbers.
  3. Jiffy
    Regardless of actual impact, it's just obnoxious as hell to be announcing digital release date before the opening weekend has even really started. What the hell is the incentive there?

    Mario's numbers in Europe and LatAm are a stunner.

    Just to clarify I wasn't suggesting performance of Hollywood films was suffering due to censorship, just that decline of China's relevance to Hollywood at least should have the upside of studios no longer having to walk on eggshells. I do agree it's a shame, but it makes sense tracker interest wouldn't be the same if the explosive results for fanboy properties and other Hollywood titles are no longer there.

    From studios and Hollywood BO fans, I mean. Hopefully this will be the final nail in coffin of studios ever trying to pander to CCP censors for increasingly niche returns. It's also quite the turnaround from the promise of pre-Covid days with $150m+ being easy money for so many properties (although I think the general leveling off in expectations was already underway when people were previously expecting it to take #1 market title within a few years).
  7. Jiffy
    That's interesting. Will contribute to this market getting less and less attention.

    JW2 is the high point of the series so far (seeing 4 on Saturday).

    Anyone calculate what the OS weekend total was?
  10. Jiffy
    Hmm is there any potential for the China release for Titanic to put #3 spot at risk for A2?
  11. Jiffy
    I'm sure A2 missed out on $60-70m from Russia at least.
  12. Jiffy
    Wow huge.

    Winning Best Picture at the international AACTA awards was a fun surprise.

    One thing surprising to realize is BOM still having Jaws OS ($210m) over SW ($196m). Not sure how reliable or what SW gross was before the 97 re-release, but does seem like the Spielberg films played a bigger part in kicking the door in overseas (with Jaws -> E.T. -> JP).
  15. Jiffy
    Was just thinking the other day how many the craziest accomplishment for Titanic is how its OS gross alone crushed the former WW record by like 35%. Probably WW record holder had not done something like that since GWTW at least?

    Wish we got $100m out of UK.
  17. Jiffy
    Studios are never learning at this point. The genie is out of the bottle.
  18. Jiffy
    Am surprised Avatar got a bigger VD boost than Titanic but great numbers for both.
  19. Jiffy
    Yah I question if it still happens at this point. Does not seem like OS weekend increased with actuals.
  20. Jiffy
    Wonder if there will be any increases from estimates. Studios definitely not failing to take SB into account lol.

    A2 is a huge success, but the admissions trajectory from Titanic -> A1 -> A2 is a sobering reminder for the state of the industry. Although to be fair expecting any director to replicate that level of success is a tremendous ask and he already accomplished it twice in a row. Will be interested to see where things go from here with A3 (I imagine downward for 3/4 and then maybe there is some finale factor with 5 that will bring back audiences). The main curiosity with #3 will be to see how an unhindered China performs.
  22. Jiffy
    9 weeks at #1 is very impressive for Avatar.
  23. Jiffy
    Hmm are either local blockbusters in China doing more this weekend?
  24. Jiffy
    So I assume $100m for A2 won't happen now barring some eventual re-release?
  25. Jiffy
    Does A1 still have this record? Too bad I just realized last weekend's drop puts $100m in UK out of reach.
