The fate of film market even the country will be decided in near future. (not trying to be politic but this is what happened in Shanghai👇🏻 Similar anger on social media. People's attention is not on movies.) -

I guess one week before opening. 10 days or two weeks at best. -

They're sure it's opening instead of lifetime? -
Unless big lockdown like the first half year of 2020, I don't think it will be pushed back to another date because no better date for big blockbuster like this. The number of local theaters is probably gonna be smaller and smaller in the next few years. None of these studios could tell if summer / national day will be better. And if we lose WE2 in CNY, more theaters will go bankruptcy before its second date. Both WE2 and Avatar 2 are invested by China Film Group. I bet they will let both of them rule the market in the next few months. (James Cameron met WE1 crew when he came to CHN for Alita. Good relationship. )

From THR https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/avatar-the-way-of-water-box-office-china-release-1235268699/

I expect long run for Avatar 2. No big release except Wandering Earth 2 in next few months. If China Film Group care their money, they would expand the release time for A2.

Do we have a link to download 4K trailer

I love the teaser for most, probably because of the score. But the recent two are fine. I just think that a cinematic experience can hardly be promoted in 60 seconds or 2 mins stuff. They don't have to release more. Let the film itself speaks.
-
no. Actually no movie get any attention here these days because none of them is clearly going to get release permission. Once it secure a release plan, it would be blast

If BP2 don't hold well, I can see only worse for Captain Marvel sequel.
-
$70M weekend is still on table?
-
$491M as of WED for BP1.
-
this is cinema.
-
-60% drop is fine I guess? But it seems the final gross would miss $500M mark.

How? Even you believe Xi is a god?
-
Nope. MCU need better writing more than any other help. If you look to one more single market or two, it only means your movie sucks.
-
Exactly what I'm saying. Superhero fans have very similar behavior pattern. "Kevin Feige is god and never make mistake. Any problem on Marvel movies and shows come from director and writer."
-
Someone already said, they're fascist
-
$175M opening is disappointing for a franchise movie like marvel when its multiple is too bad. If this one holds fine after opening weekend, the performance is still acceptable. Otherwise, you can say it's average or bad like BvS situation.

Nobody in East Asia like Simu Liu and its representation about so-called Eastern/Chinese culture. Tony Leung, not even Wen Wu, is the only reason they care.
-
ugly scores.
-
You think Sci-fi story with aliens don't need that? The key reason most sci-fi / fantasy movie misfired is they had no humanism instead of CGI.

He definitely don't care at this point. He only care if filmmakers could choose the best ideas from a series of alternatives and deliver surprising actions and cameos. He knows audience could make some compromises with these bad effects. I mean, would you care about CGI when you're watching Tiktok? You wouldn't. And you don't mind the CGI problem in Tiktok model movies.
