I don't think that's a factor at all...I think we're seeing a Marvel film released during summer vacation for the first time and it's naturally going to be more front-loaded than other releases.
Also, moviegoers had a much more steady diet of import films this summer than in previous years...Skyscraper, The Meg, Mamma Mia, Shoplifters all got releases in July.
Asian American tastes and interests are way different than Native Chinese. This film has about as much relevance in China as Mr. Billionaire does in the US.
Biggest single day gross for an original movie in China, imported or domestic. Biggest single day in any one market for non-sequel, non-remake, non-cinematic universe installment...
WOW!
Violence and profanity aside, the jokes in Deadpool come a mile a minute and are very cultural specific. The bulk of the film would be completely lost in translation. It’s a very smart decision not to release there.
