I don't understand how it can be at $20.7 million on Friday internationally but only up to $42.4 million by Sunday? It did $21.7 million on Saturday and Sunday? That doesn't seem right.
So sorry, just understood what you meant. I thought you were saying you were more knowledgeable of the Chinese box office and to correct you if you were wrong. Sorry again!
Why is Star Wars not big in China? What is the expected opening weekend, about $50 million? I thought this film could do $200 million so it's disappointing that they're so far behind everyone else.
Oh I see, i'm with you all now lol. It's Box Office Mojos fault as this page says OW $182 million, when you click on it, it says $63.5 million! So really it's on par with the last film. And I never said it's disappointing, just less than we all thought.

If that's the case it's even worse! $180 million from Sunday-Tuesday was amazing, I didn't know it opened on a Sunday (what a strange day to open on). So 2 years later from Friday-Sunday OW it really should have been higher, am I wrong? What does everyone think the film will end on, will it beat F7?
It made $180 million OW back in 2015, so I thought it would do a lot more than $200 million. Didn't it have higher presales? I never said it did badly, it's done amazing, but not as much as everyone was expecting.
Can someone tell me what the official final numbers were for Resident Evil? I know it's over $161 million and 1112 million yuan, but is there official numbers anywhere?
Edit: Found this gross, is this an accurate site?
$161,294,600

8.7%

Looks like we won't have any more updates as it closed in China yesterday with a total of $161.44 million. Sony didn't report any international gross on Sunday but the-numbers.com have the gross at $280,451,649 but Pro Box Office have it at $277,010,970.
