Eh; not sure what you are getting at. Applies for many local language films in their respective countries; eg Bollywood films or Japanese films. I note that in most cases, only Chinese films with big Hong Kong stars/directors (such as Jackie Chan/Stephen Chow/Donnie Yen/Chow Yun Fatt) generally also do well in other parts of Asia (mainly South East Asia) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainland Chinese movies struggle outside of mainland China. But Japanese movies can become big in China, for instance. Even an Indian movie like Dangal was big in China.

Yes i know. But these does not apply to all or most Bollywood films; only high profile films or those where a few known actors are involved or critically acclaimed films. Same as China; some films with well known stars do well elsewhere as well. Issue is the language barrier... many audiences still will not watch a movie which is not their native tongue (other than English). With China, there is also issue of propaganda films like Wolf Warriors / Operation Red Sea / Wandering Earth did not do that well overseas.

The Saturday numbers are just double, I think actuals will have less difference as the late releases, especially having positive nerd hype, usually are frontloaded, especially during pre-sales.
