There actually was an update a couple of hours ago which had it at around $25M. That was before the day ended in China though, so the final number could be higher.

keysersoze123 Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 So looking at somewhere close to 600m Yuan for the 5 day weekend. How is the competition going forward. I think it can handle Mermaid for sure. Any big local movie releasing in next 2 weeks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doraemon Demography is different same goes with Castle Major Opener are Spidey - June 2 Transformers - June 9 Flash &Elemental - June 16 None of the upcoming Hollywood opener has PS opened. I heard Spidey will go live on WED Morning. Among local none until Summer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard Spidey will go live on WED Morning. Among local none until Summer. Spidey could do well. 1st one did 63m (I presume 400m Yuan). I hope it increases in China if its well received. Transformers is a big question mark considering it does not have Bay or any other actors from previous movie but you never know they could be nostalgic for Optimus Prime and Bumblebee and take it to the biggest movie since pandemic. Bumblebee itself did big numbers. I hope this does breakout. 2 good weeks for FX should take it comfortably above 1B. May be as much as 1.3B Yuan. Unless Spidey is huge, 3rd week wont be that bad either. 4th week I expect FX to die when Transformers open. I wonder how Flash will do. DC movies have never done well here except Aquaman which broke out for under the sea spectacle. But it does have 2 bats. Let us hope if can at least do 300-400m Yuan. Elemental will probably bomb. Animation from Hollywood have not broken out since COVID. Plus except Coco none of the Pixar movies have done that well either. I am thinking sub 100m yuan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturday was boosted by MAY 20TH(semi-Valentine's Day in China), it will drop close to 50% on Sunday, so 540-550M yuan O-week. Mermaid will just flop ,may just try 100M yuan total at best. Big competitions (Doraemon, spider-vers) will be the week after. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophia Jane Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 (edited) FastX already cross 10m admits in China by May 20th Edited May 21, 2023 by Sophia Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Train Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Even though Fast X will end way behind F9 and wayyyyyy behind F8 and F7, I feel it leaves the franchise in a better place as reception was much better than F9. I would not count out F11 doing F9 numbers and F12 could do even more than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horrible movie like The fate of the furious or F9 hurt the franchise power ,but won’t change the fact it’s still extremely popular franchise,F12 even have chance to do over 2B in China with great WOM(F11 over 1.5B) Edited May 21, 2023 by Sophia Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Jane Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 FastX likely doing ¥28-29m today,¥1B is not the problem now,F7,F8,F9 all highest grossing HLW in China of its year,F10 maybe hold the crown(while Mission Impossible VII is the big competition) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Jane Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 (edited) Biggest HLW grosser of the year(from 1994-2023) 1994 The Fugitive 1995 True Lies 1996 Twister 1997 The Lost World:Jurassic Park 1998 Titanic 1999 Star Wars I 2000 U-571 2001 Pearl Harbor 2002 The Lord of the Ring I 2003 Harry Potter II 2004 The Lord of the Ring III 2005 Harry Potter IV 2006 King Kong 2007 Transformer I 2008 Kungfu Panda 2009 2012 2010 Avatar 2011 Transformer III 2012 Mission:Impossible IV 2013 Ironman III 2014 Transformer IV 2015 Furious VII 2016 Zootopia 2017 The Fate of the Furious 2018 Avengers III 2019 Avengers VI 2020 Tenet 2021 F9 2022 Avatar II 2023 FastX(Until now) Edited May 22, 2023 by Sophia Jane 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
