On my laptop, iPad, and android phone I’m getting a 403 error now when trying to access the dashboard. Has anyone encountered the same issue in the past/know how to fix/work around it?    
 

Following DM3/WIR2 would be about 44 final PS, maybe 150 OD. Would be nice but will hardly count on it at this point.

anything close to $75 total would be a big win for frozen2. approaching $100 would be fantastic. lot of sequels don't grow and don't correlate with the growth of market. malef2 and kingsmen2 come to mind - the latter cause it had surprised me that time. doubling frozen1 or coming close would be a huge achievement.

This generalization ain't accurate. China is Asian country and like majority Asian countries we love sequels.

But every film has its own individuality, just because some recent sequels aren't growing, doesn't mean sequels are doing bad. Those sequels didn't do well because those looked like shit and were shit.

Just recent, Mal 2, will do ¥350mn compared to ¥295mn of Mal, while in rest of world, sequel will end up doing just 60% of original and others as well.

 

FFH did almost double Homecoming, while it barely increase by 20% in rest of world.

not generalizing - many sequels do grow in boxoffice even if admissions don't grow in a tantamount manner. just that can't take growth for granted. used to be a thought that a sequel will at least show good growth in china but not always the case. frozen growing and reaching $75 will be a big deal going by how animations perform and that $75 would be a 50% increase.

I know many people here think $80-100M total is a big win for Frozen 2 and would argue that any other higher expectation is unreasonable. And I understand it. But I think there is a factor that people outside China don't know but cannot be ignored.

 

The first Frozen movie didn't make huge in China, but the movie and its characters have been really popular since then. It is no exaggeration to say that many people especially those little girls believe any other princess is not real princess compared to Elsa. They may not know what Disney is, but they recognize Elsa. In their heart, Elsa is everything. Those piratical products of Frozen can even be sold to towns / countrysides. So in some ways, Elsa is the supreme princess. And Frozen 2 represent the biggest Hollywood animation(which it is around the world). If Frozen 2 couldn't make a very great number here, the movie and itself wouldn't get any hurt but release a signal that Disney brand and their princess and other Hollywood animations still have a very very long way to go in China. It just feels like that Endgame didn't even hit $400M in China, which means that Hollywood titles still can't attract more local audience.

 

But still, I'm happy with any number over 0 considering how weak Disney's marketing is.

Not really, the first one was released in 2013. The Chinese market was starting to explode. Back then, Iron Man 3 made $120M beating all Marvel records. Fast&Furious 6 made... $66M.

And after IM3 did $120m, that became the upper end($120m-150m) for single SH movies until AQM and VNM broke out.

In general, yes Im generalizing, most sequels have not been increasing since 2013-15. Im not speaking of quality or how it increased or not in other marketd, but that the BO growth has slowed and most of the gains have been in gotten in just a handful of movies, CNY and other holiday films, the top 3 summer releases and a few HLWD movies.  The rest is close to flat. 

$30-50m had become common for toons by 2014 and its a common number this year.  

If @Gavin Feng is right and it has built a huge following since then it could explode. Otherwise it would go the same route as Mal2(9.1 rated) and barely increase like M2 even though BO is up $100% since 2014.

Frozen 2 OD PS at 7.16m up 39%

Likely to be up another 40% to 10m tomorrow, 50% Wed and 75% Thurs for 26m.  

30m PS possible with a stronger wed/thur

100m+ OD 370m/$53m OW likely at this point unless PS are front loaded like a teen romance flick since F1 did skew up to older girls and women which frontload big sometimes.  PSm could be less than 3x in that case

Poor day today. Unless it rebound tomorrow, gonna miss ¥100mn OD 

up 43% is within the norm, should be 75-80% tomorrow. 100% possible

 

F2 1 day out

15m+ 43% 

Expect 26.5m final PS.  30m possible

The PSm could be 4x.  I wouldn't be surprised if it was under 3x.  Most importantly is the rating.  It will need a 9.5 to blow up a bit

 

$50m OW still likely, but under $40m could happen if PS are heavy or not well received as we have seen with other movies lately.
