I will be surprised to see any hollywood movie during prime weekends and summer this year. Though the movies that were planned for summer would be delayed because of Virus. I hope @Olive would do post COVID-19 preview for the year for chinese movies. Then the hollywood movies would release around the big chinese movies. They will at least give 2 weeks of open run for Chinese movies. . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Widow is supposed to be the finale to her character arc and has loads of action and is China’s most hyped movie of 2020, per Douban. Never doubt Marvel or think that China will see their movies as filler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have seen these optimistic statements from the Chinese Government before, and they have proven false. I put the credibtility of the Chinese Government at about zero. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China will protect their own movies even more than they use to do. As it has already been mentioned, we could see a weekend with 2 or 3 HLW films. And an upcoming weekend with 1 or 2 big local films, taking most of theaters, cutting any chance of legs. This remembers me to 2012, when TDKR and TASM were released the same weekend, with Expendables 3 coming next weekend. The 3 did around 300m Yuan, when all of them had better expectations. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least screencount is way higher than 2012 and so market could support 3 movies a week. Question is would audience have the appetite to see all of them when the country is just back from this situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when the theaters reopen, a lot of people are going to limit their being in crowds to the necessary minimum.they don't want to take more chances then they have to I can't see film attendance going back to normal until a few months after theaters reopen.

Like BO, you are low end and I am high end. I say $300m, you say $200m on some movies. I said 3 months and you now say 2 for theaters to open. 😃 Just announced, Hubei factory restart delayed until March 10th. They say its subsiding but extended shut down by 17 days. SARS came in 3 waves. 2nd and 3rd wave came after loosening restrictions and and didnt die off until the summer heat. I dont think theaters open until after factories open and a second wave is not seen coming for a couple of months. We may have to wait for summer heat for all things clear. South Korea is rapidly increasing. They are asking people to stay home in some cities. Japan is right behind SK. BO may be gone for several months in both countries as well. We'll know within 10 days. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie Jatinder Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I think CBO will miss ¥50Bn this year. May be just ¥45Bn. Global boxoffice is certainly gonna be around $35Bn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
