    I'm pretty sure they're just talking about revenue-sharing in China in general where the foreign distributor gets 25% of box office compared to more in other countries i.e Australia. I doubt that website (or any Indian film site for that matter) has the specific business deal related to Dangal's release.

    That means it's a buy-out and not revenue-sharing? Any idea what terms of buy-out were? Flat fee or guaranteed minimum?

    Dude, after all your whining and shit in the presales forum, you react by putting down an entire country? Seems petty and playing into exactly what everyone thought of you from the beginning: you're nothing but a sensitive fanboy.

    These revised numbers are from the Chinese side, not Universal. China would fudge to hit 100M or billion thresholds in RMB, they don't give a crap about arbitrary USD round numbers.

    Indian "journalists" are nothing but idol worshipping fawners.

    Yes, Dangal is set for May 5th but it's going up against GOTG2.

    I don't know of any other market which includes ticketing surcharges in its official grosses, and even if they did, the amount would pale in comparison to China where 80% of tickets are bought online now. Indeed it is rather alarming as a way to pad stats, yet local media have caught on and usually report both 综合 (including) and 分账 (not including) grosses. Unsurprisingly, Hollywood studios and western trades, excluding China Film Insider, report the 综合 grosses since it makes the numbers look larger for their films.

    In USD yes, but it will outgross F7 in RMB.

    Maoyan is predicting 110 million for tomorrow which would be a much softer 7% decline from today if 118 million holds up as accurate. Interestingly, they are still predicting a total of 3.148 billion despite Monday's larger-than-expected drop.

    Tuesday Estimates before service charges Fate of the Furious - 112.35m / 1.524b (-26% from Monday actuals of 150.9m) A Chinese Odyssey Part Two - 7.89m / 117.3m Kong: Skull Island - 0.71m / 1.092b Ghost in the Shell - 0.65m / 186.3m after service charges Fate of the Furious - 118m / 1.615b (-26% from Monday actuals of 158.6m) A Chinese Odyssey Part Two - 8.5m / 127.3m Kong: Skull Island - 0.75m / 1.156b Ghost in the Shell - 0.69m / 197.8m

    @ChinaBoxOffice FURIOUS 8 earned est. ¥118M/¥112M ($17.1M/$16.3M) on Tuesday incl/wo ticket fees. China's total is now ¥1.615B/¥1.524B ($234.6M/$221.4M)
  18. jiangsen
    There's only one guy who think's it is disappointing @StephenN18 and dude, no offense, you clearly don't understand CBO.
  19. jiangsen
    Not sure where you got that $180M number from. F7 opened on a Sunday so maybe that's the total from Monday through the following Sunday? $195M in 3 days for F8 is definitely not an underperformance.
  20. jiangsen
    Maoyan was a little low on the midnight estimates. Their OD prediction is ¥427M ($62M)

    猫眼 (Maoyan) posted its prediction: https://piaofang.maoyan.com/boxletters/2017-04-12 51.5M Midnights 2.8B Total

    Ouch. Coldest market's been all year. Good thing F8 racing in to save the day tmrw!
  23. jiangsen
    Initial Furious 8 projections from 一起拍电影, a very reliable WeChat account analyzing CBO... ￥375M ($~55M) OD ￥1.26B ($~180M) OW ￥2.7B (~$390M) Total
  24. jiangsen
    Yes, it's the year of the cock in China which in Mandarin sounds a lot like the word for "box office", ergo people think it's lucky to go see movies this year...

    Btw, Maoyan's iPhone app -- which updates numbers in realtime as opposed to every 30 mins on the web -- has an option to show grosses either before or after ticket surcharges. Pretty spiffy app. Copy and paste 猫眼专业版 into App Store and download. Then look for "分账 (before surcharges)->综合 (after)" toggle in upper right corner.
