  1. Actually most of the Hollywood-friendly coastal provinces and cities such as Zhejiang, Guandong, shanghai etc, are mostly at 80% now. Beijing and other population hub like Shandong is also coming close. Most of the still hold out for opening are inland province that generally are less-Hollywood friendly. The only two places matter now but still having low opening rate are Tianjin (6th largest city in China) and Chengdu (7th largest city).
  2. 影院营业地图 (taopiaopiao.com) Another 1000+ cinema come back! Near 8500 cinema are now opened or 68% of opening rate.
  3. Then how can we make us$ weaker some bit? Which pair of team prevail at the WC final will hurt the BO most? Argentina vs France?
  4. But the most important 3 days, I have long suspecting LATM is where A2 will underperform and WC certainly is a factor here, judging from how BO behave recent week in Brazil.
  5. Brazil lost in the quarterfinal, how this can affect Brazil BO to come?
  6. I hope Saudi Arab can somewhat offset the loss of Russia. KSA has nearly 600 screens and TGM grossed >$20m there.
  7. I thought New Zealand will be one of them?? I always wish they can cover more places such as Mexico or India.
  8. So now the tour premiere cover London, Seoul, I believe next station is Japan?
  9. The peak is projected to come on around Dec 15? Hong Kong and South Korea experience harsh wave in early 2022, I hope that doesn't happened to China during the first 2 weeks of Avatar because I still believe there is a risk the government will impose back restriction on leisure activities if crazy wave like in HK and SK happened.
  10. Will there be a huge infection wave coming soon? I hope the number of cases can stay stable until end of the year and thenafter is a bonus for Avatar 2.
  11. It is never about the faith in the movie. If it is that easy I would call a $700m from China alone but unfortunately the situation is just too fluid over there for me to ignore altogether.
  12. I have been thinking 155m~165m but my prediction went up to 175m~180m now. But I am not that interested in OW. My aim is on 2nd weekend with 150m! Yes, it is crazy given Christmas eve but I don't care, I want that SW7's biggest second weekend record.
  13. I know everyone now is very optimistic about China situation but easing could trigger a huge infection wave soon. The wave will come fast and in just 2 weeks, the entire China could get overwhelmed and the government will again impose some restriction which for sure will first impact cinema business. Of course now the number of cases is on decreasing trend, but when the wave rises, the cases will jump quick and intense, I am still pegging my prediction for China box office at $350m, mainly because I suspect some form of restriction will resume down the road.
  14. Anything above $3bn I would be happy. First $1bn movie - Titanic from JC First $2bn movie - Avatar from JC First $3bn movie - Avatar 2 from JC. That would be a nice trilogy to look at!
  15. China daily new Covid cases drop to below 20k, it was above nearly 2 weeks ago. And the cinema opening rate is now at 59% or ~7300 cinema. Beijing start showing major opening.
  16. Ideally I would hope for 70% opening rate by the time when A2 release, and most importantly, all the costal provinces and Beijing metro would have to open at the rate of >75% by then.
  17. The number of opened cinema is now at ~6500 or 52%. Beijing metro still largely closed.
  18. I love how everyone is praising the use of 3D here and recommend that format to people they know, Even the resistance to HFR seem calm down a lot, some even outrightly praising the HFR. Yes, see Avatar 2 in 3D, That is how the movie is scripted.
  19. Ya, Avatar 2 is 3 hours 12 min long yet no one seem to critize or react negatively to its length. That is the very first sign that the movie is getting rave review.
  20. The review reaction definitely lean closer to TGM than DS2/thor 4
  21. @Gavin Feng how many % of cinema will be opened by A2 release date? Also a good news is that China covid-19 cases appear to be on decreasing trend, a trend i hope , to be on track for now.
  22. Do we know how long will A2 got to keep its IMAX screen? The major competition to A2 seem to be on week 9 when it face Antman 3 but I know on and off IMAX will give some special treatment run to a lot of niche movie too.
