Olive Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Gravity could double CF today... Cuz its stronger than CF during matinee and its late shows are way stronger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 hmm So if Thor can do 55 ish in China and TA did 90 million and Im3 did 120 million TA2 should jump a lot then ? At least up to IM3 numbers? The Avengers are way more popular than before, especially among kids. TA2 will easily make 800-900M yuan or more. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceroll Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Ughh they should have marketed CF as an action film with all the arena scenes. I'm so disappointed right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 CF midnights 700k yuan 50% of Gravity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fmpro Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 The gap is becoming bigger ... clearly young adult flicks like Twilight/CF in China would never be as popular as in English speaking territories. thinking high 400m for Gravity and middle 200m for CF in total.Im thinking 600 mill for Gravity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Marvel Fanboy Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 Forget 600m, not possible, late Nov shedule wont allow that. Local tentpole films will obsolutely take over starting Nov 29 with White Storms till late Feb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HalloFromGermany Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Is Escape Plan holding well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezorz Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 now, when it is clear gravity is a winner, everybody whishes it well. a month ago, when i was hopping this would happen and secretly hopped for 100M dollars, best predictions were 55-60M. I said gravity would make twice as much as CF, despite the similar release date. people thought the opposite would be the case, the best predictions Gand CF would get even. great results dont come from statistics but from guts. the first trailer of gravity shown it could be the event type of a movie. something we have never seen before. listen to your inner self, people, do not just count beans. i still think, desptite the comptetion, G will get excellent WOM and will make close to 100M in China. It is not just an event movie, it is a film which everyoby thinks it is a duty to see in a theater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) Disappointing OD for CF, just a 20%~30% increase from THG (13M). I would like to say it one more time: 600m yuan will not happen to Gravity, neither $100m. [i can quit on predicting China box office if 600m happens]. 500m maybe. You got to know what the coming release schedule is like. My viewing this evening just confirmed me that Gravity will not play like a 600m+ blockbuster to the Chinese audience. WOM for Gravity is solid, but nothing close to what it seems to be getting crazily from US audience and critics. Fox example, On douban, largest movie site in China, the average rating has dropped from nearly 9.0 to 8.2 in the past couple days; on Gewara, one of the biggest ticket booking sites, the rating has dropped to just 7.3 from over 8 in 2 days with 94945 votes. And of course most importantly on social nets, the buzz is nothing like a 600m+ grosser, not close. But it already surpassed most expectations with possible $75m+ finish, so 500m or 600m, not a big deal. As for CF ... some audience from my show said they didnt even get it.

A Marvel Fanboy Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 Random guess: Gravity ---- 11.20 ---- 490m Catching Fire ---- 11.21 ---- 210m Control ----- 11.22 ---- 100m The White Storm ---- 11.29 ---- 300m No Man Land ---- 12.3 ---- 500m The Four 2 ---- 12.6 ---- 150m Firestorm ---- 12.12 ---- 250m Personal Tailor ---- 12.19 ---- 1B Police Story 2013 ---- 12.24 ---- 2D ---- 450M As The Light Goes Out ---- 12.31 ---- 150M The Wind Rises ---- 12.31 ---- 300M From Vegas to Maca ---- 1.31 ---- 200m The White Haired Witch of Lunar Kingdom ---- 1.31 ---- 150m Monkey King ---- 1.31 ---- 2D/3D/IMAX ---- 600m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
