Might have to wait till Thursday for that. I'm certain SS will be over 500ww by then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 51 minutes ago, Nova said: SS got banned in China because of Enchantress, a witch. Ghostbusters got banned because of the ghosts. Deadpool got banned in China, because they couldn't edit things out of the film to make it less violent/more appealing to every age group since china doesnt have a rating system every film that gets a release there, has to be deemed appropriate for all ages by their rating system. SS didn't get banned in China because of "language," and "violence." Last we heard Sony hadn't submitted Ghostbusters for a China release at all http://deadline.com/2016/07/sony-ghostbusters-china-release-1201786088/ Can't find any sources that say Suicide Squad was ever submitted.

I'm legitimately confused. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Pets looks like it's on track for about a 7 mill weekend. That would be about a 20% drop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members on our board @Oliveand others have confirmed both films were banned because of their spirtutal tones (the magic/Enchantress in SS and ghosts in ghostbusters) in the films. However, I tagged Olive so he can clarify because I may have misunderstood the posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really need to know Because some are saying that WB is advertising the flim over there. I'm like you I need clarification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iHeartJames Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 (edited) According to Mark Hughes he's a forbes writer he stated on his "Bat Cast Podcast" that Suicide Squad was banned in China due to Katana's mask, movie violence and other factors =====> http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/holy-batcast/e/45913179?autoplay=true Edited August 17, 2016 by iHeartJames Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmscholar Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 (edited) 300 Very much alive but it's obviously going to be a crawl. Looking like a 2.2-2.3x (292-305) range but I think 300 can happen because of Labor Day weekend. Anyways that's pretty good for this title in all honesty even with the Bats/Joker dynamic. So "MOS" is definitely in trouble and will make "SS" a Top 4 DC Film all Time Non-Adjusted (TDK, TDKR, BVS). So now SS will be one of DC's biggest titles ever. Not Bad for the bad guys.

Gopher Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Am I still the only person here who's seen Nine Lives? I've thought about that movie at least 10x more than I've thought about Suicide Squad. Y'all should go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Well, I called SS at 6.25 and SP at 4.9 for Tuesday. Here's my guess for today: SS: 4.47 SP: 3.6 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
