baumer Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Too bad for the 30 day rule or it would still be making money over there. What's this 30 day rule you speak of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catlover Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Ha ha. I heard the ratings have become terrible. True? Probably. Show is very lame. Watched a couple episodes and lost interest very quickly. The ratings were great for the first few episodes. But they declined rapidly because the earlier episodes were awful, and the characters were boring. It stays boring until the 13th or 14th episode where the story finally picked up and now IMO it's getting very very good. They were obviously aiming for the story in CA2, but couldn't go there yet because they had to wait for the movie. Now the ratings are stable, but still can't reach the height in the beginning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTF Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 (edited) What's this 30 day rule you speak of?China only allows a movie to play in theaters for 30 days. :/ (I think) Edited May 4, 2014 by FTF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heat Vision Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 A Cap solo movie with $115m in China. Crazy number. How high will TA2 go? $200m perhaps? China will probably save ASM2 from being a box office flop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 (edited) When will you start believing Sam? lol:lol:I do believe. And I'm beyond happy with the numbers. Just a bit questioningly impressed by that OS total. Cause that's a 14M+ OS weekend, barely a drop from last weekend.

ecstasy Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 What's this 30 day rule you speak of? I think it was said in the China thread that Cap has to leave because of the day rule. Olive and Firedeep can confirm whether or not this is true or if I just it imagined it over there, lol. But yeah that's where I saw it mentioned.

baumer Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Is Sunday a normal opening day in China or is that an anomaly? There's a 3 day holiday that went from Thurs to Sat. Imports are not allowed to open on a holiday. So it had to open on a Sunday, a working day no less. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecstasy Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 China only allows a movie to play in theaters for 30 days. :/(I think) That's probably why TASM2 only has one day for the weekend. Waiting until Cap 2 is out of theaters. I don't know really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 100M probably, at least that's what they are saying in the China thread. Why would an Avengers movie make less than IM3 or CA2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

druv10 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 What's this 30 day rule you speak of? Most Hollywood movies are allowed to play 30 days in China with few exceptions that got extensions (Avatar, IM3). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
