LPLC Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 It's sad, I have the feeling that in a while, no more films other than Chinese will be released there, which would mean that Endgame and Avatar will surely remain at the top of the box office for a long long long long time. NWH, I was hoping for $250M-$450M, but now I'm "just" hoping for $200M like FFH. Venom 2 will also have a bad run in China. I have a question, in China already Hollywood films do not come out for long so why when there are holidays that could grow their business, do we take away all screens ? It is not logical, precisely everywhere else in the world, when there are vacations it is beneficial for films but not in China. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont see why you would adjust your expectations like that without a reason but ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was doing 14M daily numbers before CNY took it apart. Opening day was 41M. I knew that case, but I have excluded every not HLW film. The behaviour of those foreign not American films is quite different to HLW films, way more frontloaded. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Release close to CNY? Possible piracy because being released 1 month after WW release? Covid resurgence? I think those are enough reasons to take into account to adjust the projections. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Covid is a thing for sure but other than that nah.Piracy will only hurt it if a hd version leaks , something that almost certainly wont happen t, venom 2 took 1,5 month or so to leak in hd version.As for the close to CNY , by the time that happens, spidey will have make most of its money by then, like most movies do in china.

I still dont 2-3 weekends are enough for spidey to make most of its money , just check almost every hollywood movie in china, even endgame made 85% or so of its money by its 3 weekend.The only reason that may affect spidey is of course a covid resurgance something that was always known as a possibility.

keysersoze123 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 I dont think even Spidey will get date in Jan as well. China will just not give a date without officially banning it. Its what it is. China is not a reliable market for Hollywood movies with current US/China relationship in tatters for a while. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
