The previews pumped up the weekend.  PS were small before the first preview. It probably tripled the weekend. 

We would see dailies increasing now if OD was 50m , but demand was soaked up with the record breaking weekend hence the drop even with the 9.7.

Maoyan reduced projection to 3.5B, you're right, it will probably finish in the low 3's, close to $500m

Movie is very depressing, not many people want to rewatch it.

WW2 had lots of rewatch.

Why? Its numbers don't show any special welcoming among Chinese audience.

Animated movies are super leggy in summer, could make another 10M yuan with extension.

MAMA MIA! 2 will be a revenue-sharing movie.

10M yuan is it worth the effort? I mean, that's some $1.8M ...  if only they were $10M ...

That's more than a third of Brave's total gross..

making an extension is costless so why not

Wow, DtS actually won the day, looks like neither Hidden Man nor Asura will be exceptional performers.

But is 119M actually a good number for DtS?

It looks like Maoyen and piaofang168 are saying Hidden Man came out slightly ahead.

Does anyone believe that the US-initiated trade war with China could reflect a tighter embargo on american films?

 

I believe that in this war (chinese box office) US and Hollywood have a lot to lose!

It seems that my fear is about to become real. My opinion remains the same, Hollywood has a lot to lose, much more than China. Trump, the lunatic, is buying a fight with the whole world, harming his own people and country.

Both are under-estimated, but DTS still wins.

Revised numbers, DTS 123.2M; HM 120.4M

I just watched the controversial Us and Them on Netflix just because I'm a big fan of Jing Boran. Oh boy, that was so depressing.
