trifle Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 (edited) People said Rogue One did better than presales suggested because the fans of actors in it improved walk ups. Could that happen with Passengers? It is a good movie. I would really like to see it do well there. Edited January 8, 2017 by trifle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it does as "well" as R1 (around 4.1x presales for OD), its still looking at horrible OD. its at 0.4m yuan presales for OD. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A District 3 Engineer Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Can it pick up in 3 days? or is it doomed already? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Just now, A District 3 Engineer said: Can it pick up in 3 days? or is it doomed already? Generally china market has been quite predictable looking at trends. I will let @POTUS chime in on where passengers will end based on current number. But its way too low compared to even mid tier movies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerPaw Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Currently at 760k, i think it should...reach 3m by Thurs night? And opening of 10m on Fri? But I am not the expert, let @POTUS do the predictions. =) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still wondering what I missed.... or even which theme that was about. He can be a bit... provoking / pushy / ? and be rather very confident about his opinions at times. But also always trying to give a hand in prediction-calculations and so on... Edited January 9, 2017 by terrestrial 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trifle Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 (edited) Well, I'm bracing myself for a disappointing performance in China for Passengers given what I'm reading here. But I am surprised. I would have thought this was the kind of epic spectacle movie China would like. On the other hand, I only have the most superficial knowledge of the China box office. If Passengers doesn't do well, I'd be interested to hear opinions on why. What people said about Rogue One's reception made sense to me, even though I personally like Rogue One Edited January 9, 2017 by trifle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to be skewing a bit over 25 in age for viewers in other countries. Does that make a difference? I think older people in the US don't pre-buy tickets as much as younger people do. I may be grasping at straws; I am literally trying to make it do better through will power. Edited January 11, 2017 by trifle 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Now OD presales are at 2.67m. It should hit 5m by the time it opens. So that should be good for 15m od and around 50-55m ow. I would say 20m USD final gross. Still a bomb but better than how it looked couple of days back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
