Olive Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Friday Estimates 前任2:备胎反击战 28.4% The Last Woman Standing 19% Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials 18.7% Everest 9.4% Snoopy 8.8% The Witness 7% ANT-MAN 1.7% Hotel Transylvania II 1.7% What a crowded week, 3 new wide releases on Friday. Ant-man will finish around 665m, and HT2 won't make much more than 100M yuan. GML will not beat AOU after all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quigley Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 (edited) It's a shame for Ant-Man. It was doing so well. Sub-50% drops and whatnot. Edited November 4, 2015 by quigquag33 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping for 400M yuan so this is all gravy. Nobody expected 665M/$105M+. Great run in China which bodes well for future Marvel new IPs. Dr. Strange, BP, Inhumans and Captain Marvel should all make well over $100M+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peachy Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I didn't expect Ex Files 2 to get a lot of showtimes because the first movie was a box office disappointment. I don't think The Witness will reach 300M with the way things are going. I expected more from the Maze Runner too. Guess it's just a slow month.

They're setting themselves up for failure with that mind set. 100M+ should happen but it's legs are going to be cut off with glut of Hollywood and Chinese releases.

Olive Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 (edited) Yeah, I DON'T think it'll make much more than 800M.. Friends of mine have seen it and said the movie wasn't good. Edited November 4, 2015 by The Good Olive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peludo Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 In 2012, the average blockbuster in China was making about $50m: TDKR, TASM, Skyfall, ... Today, an average blockbuster is landing somewhere between $100-$120m (Hobbit 3, San Andreas, Ant-Man, ...). That is the most logical amount for Spectre, IMHO. I would say about 750m Yuan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It surprises me, Ex File 2 got more showtimes than TMR2. Yes, the first one is really bad. Imports always dominate Nov box office. Ex File 2 maybe the only one local movie to win weekend.

Then again MI4 made $100m in China in early 2012 - $40m more than Skyfall - and made $134m this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Olive, what is the buzz like for KFP3's latest trailer in China? I'm hoping for $350-400M. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bapi Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 So POint Break will be the last Hollywood release in China this year and "Typically, imported movies are blocked from release in China during December and early January". And there's chinese new year in February so when they'll release Star Wars there? Mid-January and for three weeks only? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point Break is not on the list of films in 2015, not sure where you got that info. Edited November 5, 2015 by jiangsen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
