  1. I believe Avatar 2 is part of Korean cinema.
  2. IMAX report $15.8M revenue from last weekend in China. Highest market share ever. 1/3 of worldwide IMAX opening ($16.5M for each DOM & OS-C)
  3. We should share some theaters to Korea. They're the future of cinema.
  4. one of the craziest thing is, I still don't see the movie. I was supposed to see it in WED previews. But my screening was cancelled due to tech problem. And now I become one of those who are not rushed into going cinema. I know I will see it in theaters at some point, but I'm not sure when. Good seats in IMAX theaters this weekend are not available now. And now I am kind of calm and wait. If general people have similar thinking, holds in next few weeks should be fine.
  5. I would say ¥120~130M OD. Public have some mixed emotions about current situation. Most people are agree with looser policy but still feel trouble about being tested positive. People in Shanghai, Beijing may overcome the fear more quick, but Shenzhen will have its COVID cases peak probably in JAN & FEB. Different situations for different areas. Government and experts are generally stressing things will be back to normal soon, and people believe it. But nobody could tell how soon. For film market and Avatar 2, I expect the next 2 weeks will be mundane.
  6. Douban start with 8.4/10. Not bad at all. I haven't seen the movie yet. I can't tell how big the fluctuation range could be. A good legs will most likely require 8.0/10-plus IMO.
  7. Early reactions: France - 4.4/5 (allocine) Korea - 9.06/10 (naver) HK - 4.6/5 (hkmovie) TW - 3.9/5 (yahoo tw)
  8. they probably wouldn't do restriction any more. The government are more afraid about student activism.
  9. it will be. The peak is probably going to appear around Dec.15, according to local expert. But it may not be a real limitation. Especially Chinese authorities, now trying to dissipate fears about COVID, keep saying omicron is nothing, adding 80~90% people could be tested positive. Feels like we have a whole different government and party in recent weeks. Some people on social media say they realize there is possibility of contracting the coronavirus during watching Avatar, but they would be fine with the potential result, because it's totally worthwhile.
  10. nope. The film slows down. I'm not sure if the rest of people are eager to buy ticket so early. It would be horrible that you test positive just before you're about to see it. I tested positive yesterday without knowing how it happened. I was worried that I had to give up my original plan of watching it. But I was lucky because I almost recovered 12 hours after testing. But some people I know still feel uncomfortable after few days.
  11. Wow, a sequel to a film that nobody give a shit is going to make the biggest opening of the year? The end of comic book movies or the US market?
  12. What's the price of IMAX ticket in US like NY? In China, midnight IMAX ticket can be around ¥200 ($30) in major cities. $15-plus on opening day.
  13. Almost all theaters closed down on TUE because of the death of Jiang Zemin. They come back today.
  14. I think it's pretty weird very few reactions talk about some plot points or characters specific. I mean even for bad movies, they could say: "wow, this character is good / steal the show." I'm not sure if Disney ask them not to write anything about them.
  15. I saw a critic on local social media saying dozens of press screenings will be held across US & Europe on 6th, incl 5 screenings on LA. Social media reactions will come right after that.
  16. very bad in terms of local distributor. They expected somewhere around $50 million.
