Will Mummy catch Wonder Woman's total? I am surprise why Mummy still beat WW in HK this weekend despits poor reviews. Hk is known for their taste in movies (i thought) Hope wonder woman follows Taiwan's BO trend in Japan. Taiwan and Japan have some very similar cultural appreciation.

BO Germany/Austria: Deadpool&Wolverine #1
TigerPaw replied to IndustriousAngel's topic in International Box Office
Wonder Woman is a movie about WW1... and some may say depicts Germany in Bad Light. WOM may be good.. but if everyone exits and tell their friends that their country is put in bad light.. there will be no positive WOM effect. -
WONDER WOMAN | 409.2 M overseas ● 821.8 M worldwide

The movie is about WW1...from England's POV. Doubt it will do well in Germany. Hope I am wrong though. -
Presales Tracking Thread(Maoyan, Taopiaopiao etc)
TigerPaw replied to Olive's topic in China At The Box Office
Thanks to the early previews. Good move by WB. WoM seems above average. -
Simply Put - Movies with Good WoM improved when it is a Holiday (Yes, Pirates has quite a good audience WoM in China) The local films all showing signs of big flops (despite God of War fudging almost 1/3 of its daily box office) - the effects of bad(or at most average) WoM. Local producers can complain about their film lack showtimes, but Dangal proved yesterday that despite lack of showtimes - it managed to beat the fudging movie. If China opens up July for Hollywood imports, things will get interesting.

Douban is at 6.2 2nd highest... but the absolute score is 6.2 is pathetic. Highest production budget out of the new films, but quality is barely better. You should read what people are saying on weibo and tieba. This review you posted is too optimstic.. comparing this to John Woo's Red Cliff? Lol. Honestly you will cringe watching this show. I am not saying he is lying. Maybe english reviewers don't get the small nuances in the film.Language used in the film, historical context etc. Many reviewers also said the film felt like 2 episodes of TV shows squeezed into 1 movie, scenes were not epic enough to be felt like a movie. The fact that Bona Film Group started fudging since opening Midnights and did a 6.9yuan presales (with the ticket stubbed printed at 50yuan) and gave away free tickets with ticket price printed on them... shows they have almost 0 confidence in their movie. They probably watched it, knew it was bad(or average at best) and just wanted to get the film out and not lose too much. Now even with Fudging, 100m yuan is tough.

Release Dates Discussion | Avengers Endgame 2019
TigerPaw replied to Olive's topic in China At The Box Office
Great! How big is the preview? RT Score above 70 for Global, and for China.. Maoyan score above 8 will be good enough for me! =) -
I think reviews and scores should be looked at... on a relative basis. Not absolute basis. What i mean is.. GOTG2 has high maoyan score and douban score.. but relative to Dangal it is considered the "less good" movie. Same case as Ip Man 3 and Zootopia. Ip Man 3 is one of the best Chinese film I have ever watched but same release date as Zootopia.. so on a relative basis - if people can only watch 1 movie.. they choose the better film.
