If Hollywood chose to destroy window or say even do a month window, they are basically writing off a huge chunk of Asia box office for their films.

charlie Jatinder Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Pre-sales for tomorrow aren't great. May be 36-37M final pre-sales. That may go for may be 155M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookson Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Well this is a turn of events. I was thinking 200m usd was in the bag for this but might not even hit 150 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavin Feng Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 still could wait to see how it would do tomorrow. But according to the opening day performance, it's fair to say enthusiasm for Hollywood is obviously lower than previous level no matter for what reasons(piracy or patriotism). Maybe some Marvel movies could improve something or give a more convinced test, we probably would never know that after Disney announced the new release model of BW. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re slow start, I would have said that may be previous film being shit is catching up, but then pre-sales were quite good, that means audience interest was there. The bets explanation I can think of is HBO Max. Edited March 26, 2021 by charlie Jatinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a week before release and the movie's doing pretty well in India when that country has a bigger piracy problem than China does. It is. Trust me, people know of the HBO max arrangement.

TigerPaw Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 By the way, I caught the movie in IMAX. Epic. Best movie in monsterverse thus far IMO. Acting was pretty bad... but we are not here for the humans.. haha. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavin Feng Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 3 day holidays of Qingming festival will come next weekend. But a bunch of local competitions will also land. I see Sister(我的姐姐) today and think it's good with strong emotion. This could be a major factor to GvK's holds 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie Jatinder Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Is there any unofficial boycott of American product in China? https://deadline.com/2021/03/godzilla-vs-kong-opening-weekend-china-international-box-office-1234722557/ amid the current backlash against American products that’s been spurred by past comments of fashion brands about labor conditions in Xinjiang.
