alee7915 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) SATURDAY est The Continent 84M/$13.5M, Total : 220M/$35.5M (3 days) The House That Never Dies 21.6M/$3.5M, Total : 303M/$48.9M(9 days) Tiny Times 3 17.5M/$2.8M, Total : 449M/$72.4M(10 days) Transformers 4 12.1M/$2M, Total : 1956M/$315.5M(30 days) Right, tomorrow will be the last day for TF4 for sure as based on Wanda Cinema(China biggest chain) there will be no more TF4 show on Monday, 28th of July! It is so sad especially TF4 still doing well. Take one of the Wanda Cinema in Guangzhou as an example, presales for TF4 10.25am tomorrow is very good! It has sold 163 seats out of 428 seats for the 10.25am show on tomorrow! Edited July 26, 2014 by J LO 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KATCH-2D2 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 SATURDAY est The Continent 84M/$13.5M, Total : 220M/$35.5M (3 days) The House That Never Dies 21.6M/$3.5M, Total : 303M/$48.9M(9 days) Tiny Times 3 17.5M/$2.8M, Total : 449M/$72.4M(10 days) Transformers 4 12.1M/$2M, Total : 1956M/$315.5M(30 days) That is such a great Sat jump for TF4! TF4 should've taken a few show times from TT3, it'd have made $5m easily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TF4 could have made $350m+ if it's theatrical run hadn't gotten cut short. Now we'll never know.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 the rules for chinese cinema from what i understand have been like this for quite a long time. So no need to be sad as we all knew that it only had a one month right. But what a fantastic run it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annayya Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) The Chinese know that the movie will be removed from all the screens in three weeks or so. Anyone who hasn't watched it until now just didn't want to see the movie. How come BOM is saying that TF4 only made $285 million in China. What did Paramount announce officially ? http://boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=intl&country=CH&id=transformers4.htm Edited July 26, 2014 by Annayya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alee7915 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Look at "But the weekend was also notable as the frame in which Transformers: Age of Extinction” officially passed $300 million at Middle Kingdom theaters." - Variety http://variety.com/2014/film/news/china-box-office-big-time-for-tiny-times-3-as-transformers-4-passes-300-million-1201266326/ also, "But Paramount's Age of Extinction has grossed far less than previous Transformers movies domestically, though it will be the first 2014 film to hit $1 billion worldwide thanks to $300 million in China.

That's ok. I knew Frozen can't go on forever. Meanwhile Transformers will exceed $1 billion next week. There's no way it will beat Frozen anyway I booked advance tickets for Guardians of the Galaxy in IMAX 3D for next weekend to look forward to. It has 100% rating at rottentomatoes: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/guardians_of_the_galaxy/ IMDB is at 9/10: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2015381/?ref_=hm_cs_t1 Edited July 27, 2014 by Annayya 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
