Well, way more than the first one.

I don't think so, the quality of PR2 is more like Power Ranger 2017 than Del Toro's original Pacific Rim. But the curiosity would give PR2 a good opening in China.

I´m sad to see so few comments in the biggest week of the worldwide box office history......

I’m hoping then 150 mil at least for Pacific Rim.

I doubt it. I looks horrible. In China that means OW*horrible legs.. Most likely 1.5 multiplier..

I doubt it opens to 100 mill

Wait. You assume PR2 will be horrible because it looks that way? Jesus Christ...So many really want this to suck and flop, eh.....just so we won’t see a third one happen, lol. Like really wanting this franchise to die like it never should have happened. And i know you guys are more likely to hate the movie with a passion when it arrives. 

 

And if you’re right....(although i hope not)....then people may have been desperately right. 😢

 

I know the haters are ready when it comes out next month.

I agree, it could end up being liked like Skull Island (even though I disliked it many liked that one) as a fun action movie.

Yes. Its an assumption on my part.. Buuuuuut im pretty sure i`m right..

It looks horrible. It will do 1/2 of the first DOM. RT will be very low and WOM mixed at best. OS still could be good though. But im pretty confident that a 1,5-1,75 multiplier is in the cards at best in China

”It looks horrible because it will be horrible.” You really want to be right on this? Want this to fail so much.....So you can be even more right next time.

 

Why is everyone against the movie like they know it will suck bigtime? 

 

It’s one month away....and ya act like it won’t be surprising in a good way at all? Why the hate for this film before it even comes out? 

 

It’s not just the buzz....but the assumption that it will be slaughtered quality-wise...might sadly be true for some.

 

Call me crazy or desperate....but i think know now why people want this to blow that badly. Apathy, much?

Am I the only one who thinks PR2 might decrease from the first one. This sequel looks terrible.

Well, that’s because the assumption from folks here will believe that it (correction) will be terrible.

 

And that’s the keyword: ”Will be”.

ORS is a 2nd movie to do 100M+ in its second weekend.

I agree that Pacific Rim 2 looks really awful especially the CGI…

 

Spoiler

but sometimes Chinese audience loved awful movie like Geostorm

 

[Olive]

Febuary has crossed 9B yuan（$1.4B+）, biggest month in cinema WW.

[CaptainJackSparrow]

Geostorm was a great fun movie, glad it did well here.

[kswiston]

What were the totals (as of today) for last week's openers?

According Maoyan (ER 6.33):

 

Detective Chinatown 2: $415.9m ($79.8m 2nd weekend)

Operation Red Sea: $333.1m ($106.5m 2nd weekend)

Monster Hunt 2: $317.6m

Monkey King 3: $106.8m

Boonie Bears: $83.8m

 

The cume of those 5 films is $1.257b

[CaptainJackSparrow]

I’m hoping Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom breaks out more here than the last Jurassic did.

[Olive]

Wonder has made 191M yuan as of Sunday, that is $30.2M ,  China beating Brazil became its biggest OS market.

Kinda surprising for this kind of movie.

[CoolK]

Wolf Warrior 2 is a solid action movie...thoroughly deserves its BO performance..

[TigerPaw]

Who would have expected... Operation Red Sea - High Chance of becoming CNY box office champ.

Best military movie from China. Honestly.

 

Who would have though, Chinese New Year is regarded as a time of Joy.. Fun.. and where Comedies or action fantasy with funny elements will triump, due to suitability for all ages. But ORS is showing that quality triumps.

 

Detective Chinatown 2 is solid as well. Unknown IP back in 2015... rode a wave of good WoM for the first film, and the 2nd film is exploding.
