Anyway its doing great in most places. 650m+ in OS is crazy good for a SH movie these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keysersoze123 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 from Bluebomb@KJ on HK. Another market where its not uber breakout. Quote Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness - HK$30,043,010 (US$3,817,323) opening weekend/HK$65,484,607 total (US$8,320,602) Thor: Love and Thunder - HK$24,670,446 (US$3,134,675) opening weekend/HK$48,568,367 (US$6,171,191) Deadpool - HK$28,930,446 (US$3,675,958) opening weekend/HK$58,000,805 total (US$7,369,695) Deadpool 2 - HK$26,116,168 (US$3,318,371) opening weekend/HK$54,597,460 total (US$6,937,259), 668,740 admissions Deadpool & Wolverine broke the R-rated opening day record in Hong Kong set by Deadpool back in 2016. It made above $600,000 on Wednesday (around $630,000). It is aiming for about a 3.2m OW, which would be above Thor: Love and Thunder's opening weekend but below everything else. Breakdown: Wednesday - $630,000 Thursday - $375,000 Friday - $490,000 Saturday - $860,000 Sunday - $845,000 5-day opening weekend total - $3,200,000 In gross, that is decent. It has a shot to make 7m total, however, the Deadpool franchise is known to be very frontloaded. I think 6m is a lock though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The exponential growth phase for China BO is over, not only Hollywood is suffering from that diminishing, even local film should start feeling the contraction soon. Their population is aging where faster than any comparable economics. 20 minutes ago, keysersoze123 said: Weird that with a strong WOM its not breaking out similar to Guardians.

I heard more people talking about GOTG3 than NWH although I must say the talk for NWH is a lot more passionate. GOTG3's WOM was spreading beyond core fanbase group. The mostly standalone story without tedious interconnected map, plus an highly accessible movie about animal testing will put the movie in casual audience mouth more. So far DW's word of mouth on the street is similar to NWH, very passionate positive but they aren't as transcending. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie Jatinder Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 (edited) China is gone case. I have started to simply ignore it. There is something extraordinary/despicable that happened in 2022 which changed market. It was fine until then. Hollywood is faring worse than animes ffs when in 2019 those would be a blip on radar. Re-release of Your Name did ~$12M last weekend while DP3 will barely do double of that. Back in 2019 we would be looking at near $100M weekend for DP3.

US/China relationship is at nadir and I think that is pushing the chinese audience to support other international movies over hollywood. Plus domestic movies are getting better in regards to technical values and its easy to connect emotionally with movies made locally. I still expect some hollywood movie to hit 2B Yuan sometime in next 2-3 years. Not sure what it would be but it will happen. I wonder if @Olive or @Gavin Feng have something to say on this?

China BO was so a big market so naturally that caught more attention but if people deep dive the figure further, one should realise the "problem" is actually wide spreading across Asia. Hollywood simply command less power that it used to enjoy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Issac Newton Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 If People actually start supporting their Local Industry then Hollywood is never going to a dominant in Asia Lahn Mah (Thailand) MAI (Vietnam) Dark Mother (Cambodia) Rewind (Philippines) Mat Kilau (Malaysia) Money No Enough 3 (Singapore) Man in love (Taiwan) KGF Chapter 2 (India) Roundup 2 (Korea) Twilight (Hong Kong) Demon Slayer (Japan) .... So on Are Post-CoVid-19 Biggest Local Blockbuster in their respective countries I think now except for Philippines.. all countries are extremely supportive of their local industry 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what it would be but it will happen. Even before the shift in Chinese moviegoing, it was often random which movie would be huge in China. Case in point, Zootopia. But now that the audience is less inclined to go to Hollywood movies, I don't think these surprises will happen as often. Maybe not at all. I mean if even Avatar 2 can't get to 2 billion Yuan, what can? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
