sfran43 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 (edited) 1.4B could happen by sunday for AoU Next goal 1.5B Its going to be very very tough No way in hell it's touching 1.4B this weekend after a 1.265B last weekend. It needs to get to 1.3B first, and it barely grossed $10M from weekday numbers. Edited May 29, 2015 by Queen Shar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And AoU is at 1.359B after friday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CelestialFairyIX Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 If Doraemon holds well and WOM is as great as it was in it's other territories, than I'm sure it will reach $15 - 20 million USD! That will make it around a $115 cumulative for Stand by Me Doraemon! That's basically "blockbuster" level right there for me for a film from Japan!

keysersoze123 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 San Andreas presales are a bit lame so far. That is surprising. It appears made for china. Could be good news for AOU, Doremon etc if San Andreas bombs in China. May be the market is not as predictable as we think and believe everything gonna break out.

Asyulus Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 San Andreas presales are a bit lame so far. Because of that, Can SA still hit $400M OS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POTUS 2020 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 That is surprising. It appears made for china. Could be good news for AOU, Doremon etc if San Andreas bombs in China. May be the market is not as predictable as we think and believe everything gonna break out. AOU mixed wom led to sharp declines, TL bombing now SA could be weak. Maybe this is a sign of the novelty beginning to wear off and they are now becoming more selective with their movie going dollars. Up over 50% year to date. The biggest admission gain ever. Often the biggest pop in a market precedes a drop. Maybe we wont see many PacRim situations where its underwhelming every where but china in the future. Firedeep said many movie goers just show up and see whats playing, After enough disappointments maybe they'll check their "rotten tomatoes" first and stay away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) Finally, the record of biggest single day gross(55M yuan I think) for an animated movie is broken by Doraemon, it has been held by KFP2 for exactly 4 years! Edit: KFP2 OD - 67M saturday Edited May 30, 2015 by Johnny Storm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Saturday estimates: 1). Stand by Me Doraemon, ￥80M/ cume: ￥145M ($23.7M) 2). Avengers: Age of Ultron , ￥25M / cume: ￥1384M ($223.2M) - 3rd biggest of all time 3). Tomorrowland , ￥20.8M / cume: ￥70M ($11.3M) 4). P.K., ￥8.8M / cume: ￥65.9M ($10.6M) 5). I, Frankenstein ￥8M / cume: ￥33M ($5.3M) 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) KFP2 OD - 67M saturday ， which was also biggest single day record for some time. So, KFP3 OD 200M yuan+? If released on a holiday or weekend, 300M+ easily! And rumor says local distributor bought Doraemon rights for a mere 600k yuan. ( Japanese movies are hard to pass censorship) Edited May 30, 2015 by Johnny Storm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CelestialFairyIX Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 That... was the most unexpected thing for me! Does this have the ability to hit $100 million if it keeps up at this pace?! Damn, I thought $20 was "blockbuster" level for this movie but it managed to pass that and more in just mere days! I'm going to put my bet on $50+ million!

Cynosure Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) Quite a few japanese anime are huge in China. Doraemon is one of them. I'm pretty sure Japanese anime movies have quite the potential there. Too bad so few of them are actually released. Hopefully one day China ends up being more open to movies from different countries (Japan, France, Korea, Germany etc.) and ends up giving some of them significant grosses, it could allow these countries to produce more high-budget movies and be more competitive on the market which could only be a good thing.

What are you talking About? 50m will be reached during the next weekend itself, at the latest. Its almost locked to end up above Big Hero 6 at this point. Unless, I am missing out on something..like more than usual bondages on the movie for being a japanese one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
