Just watched F8, lame story but crazy action scenes more insane than previous installments.

Chinese audience gonna eat it up, WOM will be excellent even though I find it just noise and shaking cameras...

Goodbye, Mermaid.

[keysersoze123]

I am going to skip it for sure. Did not love any Furious movies and still consider 1st one to be the best of them. But its an amazing movie to track for sure.

let us hope actuals are higher. Anyway OD should be interesting. I am hoping for 450m+. Tomorrow should be a great day for tracking.

It's not breaking SW7 OW record with only 450M. It needs 540M+ to have a strong chance.

I never believed that would happen anyway. Plus the presales tapered off bit after Monday. It looked like 200m+ on monday but ended quite a bit lower.

 

Of course it could behave like Kong and do 4x the PS. But I dont see that happening.

 

I am thinking 1.5B yuan OW which is out of the world number.

[bangbingchan]

So it starts Now

Look forward to tomorrow number

[NCsoft]

WOW, exciting times!

Maoyan was a little low on the midnight estimates. Their OD prediction is ¥427M ($62M)

* Over $400m in China

 

* Probably 2nd OW ever in any country, just behind Star Wars 7 in USA. About $215-220m.

 

* 2nd biggest film ever in China with a chance of topping the first one (Mermaid with 3.39b Yuan = about $490m)

Is that a sure thing?

With a $215-220m opening? Not locked, but probable.

Yeah, plus I'm much more interested in Saturday. At potential near 600M, biggest proper BO day ever by a movie surpassing JW's Saturday 69.6M+.
