Gavin Feng Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Mulan's opening should be huge. But I don't expect great legs at this point. Normal HLW drop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerPaw Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 1 hour ago, jb007 said: It is not being smug. It is shocking. I don't know who the actors are in that movie or their popularity. But to see it perform the way it is against a known franchise movie like IP 4 is something else. The other interest in that movie is because I have watched the original tens of times. It is a perfect movie for multiple viewings. Shouldn’t the known franchise in this case be TROS? Kungfu Films like IpMan4 actually has limited appeal in China, and is a bigger IP in South East Asia (Malaysia, Singapore, Indo) and countries like Taiwan where it is on track to beat box office records. Anyway both films are doing well, SwoS and IpMan4 both leading the box office, with IpMan4 retaining the crown again this weekend. The losers here are the new openers and other holdovers from last week; not each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is quite popular with the English movie going crowd in India. Edited December 28, 2019 by jb007 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there holidays which could help box office in china ? $120m. NYE/NYD plus rest of extended run(Jan 20th) will help it get to just there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerPaw Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Ip Man 4 led the box office again the past weekend with c.USD29m, it crossed USD100m today (Monday) Tomorrow will see the opening of Adoring - PS for tomorrow already at RMB 60m! If it behaves like a normal film (instead of a Fan driven affair), then we could be easily seeing the next RMB1bn film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerPaw Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 (edited) Fun day at the box office. Adoring looks to end with RMB 150 - 200m single day. IpMan4, with its great word of mouth, may beat newcomer “Begin, Again” with RMB40m. SwoS and Begin, Again will be a close fight for 3rd today. Finally some heat to the China box office.

The release has been delayed for too long, no hype at all. Maoyan predictions updated - December release box office ranking: IpMan4 - RMB1.12bn SwoS - RMB1.03bn Adoring - RMB0.67bn i think Maoyan underestimated Adoring’s full potential, with a Maoyan score of 9.3 and opening of >160m, I think 1bn is within reach. Tomorrow (1st Jan) is a public holiday - will see how high IpMan4 and Adoring can fly and see any Maoyan updates their predictions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
