South East Asia Box Office Thread.

I don't think it will do well in Singapore and Malaysia -
It is a MCU movie, it won't be Rotten no matter what. Plus there is talks of diversity and inclusion, there will be some buffers in reviews.. the critics won't be so harsh. But I think WoM will be mixed - average / poor WoM from G.A but many fans will say it is the best MCU film anf that the studio took risks etc..

I would say Maoyan scores for Hollywood films are pretty legit; local films sometimes have locked scores especially if Maoyan itself is an investor (*cough* ChangJin *cough*). I mean Maoyan scores killed WW84 and Shazam pretty much; but the thing is - for Dune it has a good Douban score and if you see the breakdown of Maoyan score it is obvious the film is divisive; instead of having poor or average WoM.

Hard to quantify though, i mean there are GA outside of US that does not know it will be a simultaneous streaming release in the US. Fans or people who knows BO and studios obviously knows though. Especially leading to the final days of presales; if i was a GA searching for showtimes or reviews on weibo to decide whether to book a ticket this weekend and saw a HD link out there..i think i will definitely rethink about buying the ticket? I am not sure about the magnitude of impact but i genuinely doubt it will be 0. If GvK opened in China day-and-date vs HBO max release instead of being theaters 1 week earlier - there would definitely have been some impact right? I just think that timing of piracy also matters.
