Looks like it's at 9.3 on Maoyan. OW in China more than double its domestic OW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 It is understood that the Film Bureau badly wanted Alita on the Dec 7 slot to boost the year end box office. CBO in 2018 was so close to 60 billion, yet so far. One last straw is needed. But Fox failed China by moving Alita to Feb 14, in the hope of a V day China release (what a dream, wake up, Fox). In the eyes of the official regulaotors, Aquam is a replacement of making do, as Bumblebee was considered so big a tentpole that it landing on Dec 7 could swamp all local releases of Dec. So there you go, the King of the Seven Seas. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerPaw Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Not sure whether this is a good move from WB... Aquaman pirated video will be out on Dec 7... once it releases in China. May not impact US box office, but will definitely damage box office in Latin America and Asia where Piracy is rampant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephanos13 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 The Aquaman release 2 weeks earlier than in the US, I don't know if it will end up helping or hurting its box office gross (WW minus China). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much got wrecked worldwide ,despite it being a solid sequel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a2k Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 If Venom does $75-80 in China then it's locked to beat Ant-Man2 globally. $205 dom + $80 China + $15 Japan + $340 OS-China-Japan* = $640 WW *currently $235 after $70 weekend. So adding a reasonable $70*1.5 = $105 more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerPaw Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Read this from Comic Book Resource, not sure whether true? “In the face of sharp declines, China has provisionally granted several high-profile Hollywood films with release dates; Venom will only have a wide release in China for 12 days.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
