Wow, I knew it had slowed down a bit but I never expected it to be so bad o_O There are some people who know a lot more than me about Chinese market here, and they have been saying this along the year. And I insist, the ER is a problem. Yuan has lost about 8-9% relative to dollar since last year. Just a couple of examples: Furious 7 did $390m last year. With today ER, it would had done $356m. The Mermaid, did $526m. Today it would be about $497m. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a kind of Valentine's Day that sees a slight boost in moviegoing. Also it's been co opted by Alibaba as a crazy e-commerce bonanza where there are nutso deals on everything. Sorta like America's Cyber Monday after Thanksgiving but like magnitudes bigger. Thanks. Still looks like 34-36 mill friday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least it's still growing, but such a slowdown is quite unexpected...I guess the slowing Chinese economic growth had to hurt the movie market somehow.

I also hope more co-productions will come.But it seems there are many creative differences between China and US.Kung fu Panda 3 is good and it could have done better in China.I think more Chinese studios will be encouraged to work with US filmmakers if The Great Wall succeeds. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keysersoze123 Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 excellent for DS. But how would new release next week would hit DS. Isn't a local biggie releasing next week that will open bigger than this week's releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Feng Xiaogang's new movie will make money, other gonna flop, I think DS will keep 20% showtimes next weekend ,another good hold we can expect. But the week after that, Fantastic Beasts and Moana will take most of DS's screens. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullbuster Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I want Moana to pass $100m there, that would be so great. I'd like China to be more like Japan and SK when it comes to Disney animation because when it happens the results are amazing : Zootopia wouldn't be beyond $1B without China. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
