In 7 th week It will earn around 4.6 mln and Sm:h earned 6.3 mln, after that Sm:H added another 17.5 mln, if IT will earn 12.77 mln (4,6:6,3*17.5) it will finish over 334, slightly over SM:H.

Will happy death day have an expansion? Or 3100 is max?

Will It overtake Sm:H? (domestic)

So sm:h was 755 mln, and ER was 6.59, now it is 758, and 6.62. So it was 114.56 mln$ and now is 114.50$ mln. Using current ER thasn't have any sense.

Right now SM:H has an advantage, but I don't think it's possible to estimate how much can ww2 earn outside China.

According to Gavin it's already $116.5 mln, but the-numbers estimations was $110mln after saturday(Gavin had 114.5). Considering on fact that the-numbers should be consider as much more official source than Gavin it's still long way to $115, and if ER will change (yuan is getting stronger recently) current number will be DECLINING.

My optimism? I didn't say that sm:h will gross around around $130mln i just share my opinion that slightly less than $130mln in china would be enough to be no.1 in spider-man franchise history. Unfortunetly it's not going to gross even$120 mln, of course it's still great achievement but not enough to beat spider-man 3 worldwide.

According to BOM Spider-man 3 earned 890.9, and according to the-numbers 894.9, so it's hard to say how much sm:h would have to earn to be no.1 in franchise history. If we assume that Sony would rather choose lower number (it's easier to sell blu-ray of best-selling movie in spider-man franchise history than 2 best) with $131 mln in china spider-man would have to gross 759.9 outside china, according to BOM it's already 757.59, and after sunday it will be around 759, so i think even with less than $130 mln in china sm:h would outperformed s3.

That's why i wrote: Now it's obvious that sm:h wouldn't beat s3, and you probably mean $131mln usd.

I understand that it would be very hard to calculate how many people watched this movie, but I'm happy that you agree with me that it would be better indicator to measure popularity of movies Sun over 10 mln Yuan Monday-Friday 2.5-4 mln yuan everyday (total more than 10 mln yuan) Sat dead The-numbers informed that after friday it was $109 mln, so another 6 seems right.

You have a good point, considering on how much ER fluctuated over last decade it's quite pointless using simple comparison which movie earned more money. Maybe number of admissions would be better indicator. Or maybe I should shut up and just enjoy fact that this was a good movie, which earned a lot of money

You're 100% right that it's an absurd to use other currency than yuan in thread about china box office, in my defence i was curious if sm:h can beat spiderman3(worldwide), and become highest grossing movie in spiderman franchise. And this is only reason why i'm curious how BOM and the-numbers calculate gross from china. Now it's obvious that sm:h wouldn't beat s3, and it's seems it's not easy to figure out why gavin BOM and the-numbers have slightly different numbers so we can end this debate.

Well i'm not sure if there is some discrepancy between gavin's twitter and his post on this site, he probably used diffrent ER than guys from the-numbers.com.

You can check gavin's twitter and you will see that you' re not right.

No it doesnt, with friday's numbers it's over $111 mln.

You probably missed link to Gavin's twitter account when he converted his number to 110.79mln, and ignored my previous post where I wrote that it's rather impossible that the-numbers convert their data on daily basis. Of course 2.79 mln it's not a big diffrence, but i'm just curious:)

Of course you're right, Gavin's THU numbers was 717.6 and today 6 (724 in total) so I assume that Gavin THU numbers was actualized to 718 (724-6). So thank you for informing me, that my theory about using by sites like the-numbers or BOM numbers without service fees is incorrect, but I still don't understand why there's few millions diffrence between Gavin's number and number from other site.

Maybe you're right but i don't think it's possible. If they used actual ER they would have to change their numbers from many countries everyday. According to BOM SM:H earned 69.240 in first weekend, and they use 6.4944 as their ER, according to the numbers this movie earned 69,01 in first weekend so they couldn't use 6.59 as their ER. Besides Gavin Feng on his twitter is showing diffrent number than the-numbers. https://twitter.com/weier1231997/status/910879465495916544

Thanks to Gavin Feng we know that sm:h earned 717.6 mln yuans, and according to the-numbers this movie earned 108 mln $. But 717.6 yuans is more than 108 $, so I'm curious why Gavin and the-numbers show us diffrent numbers. I believe that they have accurate data, they just have to calculate it in diffrent way e.g. Gavin is giving us data after service fees, and the-numbers before service fees. If my theory is wrong, what's the other option? Why Gavin and the-numbers show us diffrent numbers?

Judging on fact that according to the-numbers sm:h earned 108.050 after THU it seems that they don't add service fees to their number.

It should be around $105 tomorrow so just 10 million after sunday?

Could you explain me something? According to Gavin Feng SM:H earned 41.5 in monday and had 501.1 in total, and in tuesday it was 33.5 and 535.3 in total. But 501.1+ 33.5 = 534.6 not 535.3 so i assume that after verification this movie earned slightly more in monday and this situation repeated in tuesday. So actual drops are better than this presented by Gavin. Am i right? (Of course i'm not criticize Gavin excellent work for this forum)
