China Box Office Thread | Oppenheimer-August 30

No need to sugarcoat the DP opening day. It stalled at 75 million including midnights. That is not good. 

 

What are the presales for Saturday?

Yeah 29.3 million is what Maoyan shows now as of 12:02am. That does not seem good.

yup. most of it was made at 6.73 and we'll have the right number here but mojo and most other place will screw it up like they did with IW.

I have IW at $376m.  EG will be lowered by 1.4%($8m) by mojo on Monday with the 6.82 rate

its comical to look at IW's chart below

Saturday PS matching OD PS is normal.  The PSm normally increases 25-30% on Sat. Hence a 30% bump tomorrow. However if DP is more for families a 50% bump would have been expected.

Gavin said $40m OW but with just a 30% bump it will be $33-35m

Not sure if it's been said already but KOTM pre-sales have started

[keysersoze123]

So looking like 55-60m for Pikachu in china. Not bad considering the type of movie but for a while it looked like making more.

I still remember Gavin saying $300 million was on the table after initial trailer hype in China.

Far East audience (except Japan which is in a world of their own) have similar taste. Pikachu is not doing well in Korea, and so will China.

WW opening or WW total? 

WW total won't be that bad. If you mean opening, then definitely.

it won’t open to half of that number. Even the  WW total is looking like 400m.

I meant Pikachu WW total ... considering China will be well below $100M total, and dom wont be too much past 100M. Let's say $200M dom+Ch ... $157M from the rest of the world?

Dom opening is 50-55, should do at least 3 multi (family movie for kids). And China can still crawl to 100, so... no

I am willing to bet Pikachu would be front loaded. Its driven by Pokemon fanbase as much as “family”. No way its making 100m in China off 77m OD with the Maoyan score it has. Closer to 60m. Already the official app is predicting no increase for tomorrow which spells disaster.

I agree it has a good chance to pass 150 DOM, but China is looking 33-40 open means a finish of like 55-80.
