China Box Office Thread | Deadpool & Wolverine- July 26

[Olive]

Thursday est.

1. Guardians 11.3M/1.84M, Total 483M/$78.5M.

2. Hercules 11.1M/1.8M, total 38.4M/$6.2M

 

Lucy midnights should be around 50% of GOTG, 25-30M yuan OD likely

[Quigley]

GotG dropped an estimated 46% from last Thursday. A bit suprising since one would expect midnight showings for Lucy to cause a larger decrease for other films. We'll see when actuals come out.

Does The Maze Runner opens next weekend in China?

Thursday actual number :

 

Guardians               :    10.26m / 1.66m          Total        481.87m / 78.35m    (14days)

Entergroup numbers are lower since the beginning of this month.

This source is more accurate.

GOTG total as of Thursday is 486M yuan.

And Hercules did worse than I expected, 200M yuan total is not happening.

[Olive]

GOTG will be around 520M/$84.5M yuan after Sunday.

I hope it can make another 30M yuan next week, but I'm afraid it will lose all screens when Maze Runner,Turtles and some local movie open next week.

So what are the new predictions for TA2 in China?

Nobody wants to see Fade Runner. Keep Guardians.

Wow, Hercules gross is really bad...

[keysersoze123]

Hercules is one of the few flops in china. Almost everything does ok there. Even need for speed did like 50M.

 

Maze runner should do well for sure. I am thinking 50M gross is possible. 

[LexJoker]

Hercules should have been released last friday.

From what I can recall, Need For Speed had very spare competition in addition to the game being very popular in China.  Hercules got a really bad date - a mid week opening in Oct - sandwiched between GOTG and Lucy just 2 days later.

Good for Lucy and Guardians.

Awful for Hercules.

[Quigley]

It's quite bad for Guardians too. I mean at this point, $8M is the best-case scenario for the weekend. That's a 62% drop from last weekend.

[Heat Vision]

Damn! I thought Hercules would do decent.

[JCS]

What went wrong with Hercules?

 

Solid action film with The Rock, why aren't the Chinese loving it?
