Doesn’t it then even make DP’s weekends holding power in China even more impressive? yes Aladdin’s screen-counts got cut, and there is demand, hence the high attendance per screen (on its 2nd weekend). It is DP’s 4th weekend and it’s attendance per screen is higher, really impressive. Its not really impressive though. My understanding was that Charlie was not pointing out how impressive it is that Aladdin is performing better per screen, but more so pointing out the degree of screen loss it suffered. When screens are shed so rapidly, its natural for attendence per screen to go up (especially since non performing theaters/showtimes are cut the most). HIs point was more that Aladdin took a bigger hit in screens than its perfomance alone would dictate due to competition As a % of total gross, screen loss isnt such a big deal for DP anyways so not really worth mentioning. It may lose ~2% of its total potential gross had the screen loss not occured, but in its fourth weekend its run is winding down anyways. For Aladdin the impact is much higher, it didnt get much room to breathe, unlike Pikachu which had three weeks of minimal competition helping it to leg it out better than expected given its WOM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin4125 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 I take some of that back, just checked Maoyan Pikachu's hold is pretty decent this weekend all things considered, wonder how much that has to do with Children's day. \Still, not bad, though doesnt make up for a so-so run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentatek Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) Detective Pikachu had lack of screens WW. Not just in China. Most cinemas preferred to play endgame instead of it during opening weekend. (The problem was the pre sale were low so most theaters don’t know what to expect...) But the sales did ramp up close to release date. By next weekend, John wick came out. So it didn’t really have much premium screens if at all really. It also had no imax release because of endgame.

keysersoze123 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 I agree Pikachu was hit hard on screens WW. Almost everywhere endgame dominated in its 3rd week. It did not even get full PLF screens in theaters with Imax and PLF. Losing screens in China happens for every movie. That is why you need to maximize your BO when you have the screens. Aladdin start was mediocre bcos it came in with little buzz. Still its having a good hold this weekend bcos it had weak start and could sustain with low show count. Next week it will be hit worse with 3 more openers. Plus great Saturday for Zilla. it definitely needed this good news. Only China and Japan have been a beacon of hope for Zilla. Maoyan is down to 8.6 but hope it can have a good run and at least gross 900m yuan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potentially yesterday was primarily fans, today during Children's Day more general audience came and watched it and didn't like it?
