China Box Office Thread | Oppenheimer-August 30

Recommended Posts

TLK so far has a multi of 1.345 versus Spidey’s multi of 1.311 till Wednesday. TLK however will face a big opener tomorrow as Looking Up has a great PS of 20m for tomorrow. TLK’s show count is already down by 40% tomorrow. It will also face 4-5 new openers on Friday which will take a lot of screens away whereas Spidey did not face any significant competition in its 2nd weekend. 

 

Overall TLk will have a better multi than Spidey but 3x and 150m seems very unlikely at this point.

Animation Ne Zha on July 26th & Drama The Bravest on August 1st will make huge. 9.5 on Maoyan can be expected for both.

I have been thinking, if Disney is going to do animation or even live action movie of next Chinese legendary/mythical character, it should be Ne Zha. He is such a fabulous intriguing rich multi-layer character. Some of his choices, the family dynamic and daddy issue can be very dark grim and probably need adaptation though.

Its drop on tuesday/wednesday were not bad. But Its PS down quite a bit. Probably looking at low 20s for thursday. Question is can it increase on friday while losing more shows. Anyway there is little mystery left in its run.

 

@Olive, is Spiderman getting an extension or will it end its run next week? Anyway its losing lots of screens and so looks like finishing around 1.4B. Good increase from homecoming.

That’s a round about way of saying Spidey kicked it’s ass in China.

1.1 billion minimum. I’m more interested to see what a Spider-man 4 would gross today

Lol 1.1 Billion is too much maybe 600-700M? Spidey 4 would have definitely crossed 1B easily

¥1.1B, I think it’s a pretty conservative guess (as minimums should be).   

 

We’ll see about Spider-man 4 in 2023, I think it’ll be over 2B ;)

China movie studio embraces Communist Party as industry turns red

Huayi Brothers pledges allegiance after suffering huge losses through censorship

Huayi Brothers, the film studio that sits atop China's entertainment industry, welcomed the Chinese Communist Party into its operation this week.

At a joint ceremony Monday, Huayi representatives accepted a golden tablet from the party after establishing a Communist Party committee within the company. Cao He, former head of public relations at Huayi, will lead the committee as the party secretary, Xinhua News Agency reported Friday.

 

Huayi Brothers will "work with the party over films' productions in every way," said Cao, adding that the studio will ultimately "integrate the party's achievements into film and television."

 

Quote

"This will definitely have a chilling effect on the type of content that will come out of Huayi and its partners," Kokas said. "However, this is in the context of the increasingly limited scope of activities of Chinese filmmakers due to censorship regulations. [Although] this is a significant transformation, the state for content production has already been shrinking."

old

 

Basically almost all big Chinese companies have established Communist Party committees, and are controlled by CPC.

More like Looking Down 😂😂

bad movie deserves underperforming.

 

lucky for LOOKING UP that only Ne Zha releases next week, otherwise it would miss even 500m, aka flop.

The Bravest on Aug.1 will be the biggest winner of this summer.

What makes you so confident? I know these kind of stories can appeal to a certain audience but I'm just curious as I haven't seen much hype about this movie online and I don't see it appealing to families or younger people that much.
