2012 3D ￥13.1m $2.09m

Cume ￥32.3m $5.1m

Life of Pi Wed midnight about ￥0.4M. $64K

[A Marvel Fanboy]

Apparently 2012 3D is collapsing quickly.

[Bluebomb]

Problem is the editing is not done yet. They may just miss the date.

Really? Wasn't it in production hell for several years?

Yes. They were still shooting just weeks back. That's how Kar Wai Wong works.

[A Marvel Fanboy]

Looks meh start for Pi with decent wom from GA.

[Fullbuster]

Do you think The Hobbit can be a success there?

[A Marvel Fanboy]

Yes !

Do you think The Hobbit can be a success there?

ROTK made over $10m, when the market was about 1/15th of today

[A Marvel Fanboy]

TH could be the biggest 2013 foreign release in China, the only contender is IM3.

[Bob Violence]

I dunno if it's too early to ask this, but will the 48fps version of The Hobbit be shown in China?

It most likely will.

It is said that all IMAX (digital) theaters in China can support 48fps. RealD3D, which can be found in most Wanda, UME and Jinyi cinemas, also support 48fps.

ROTG already quickly faded. Its daily gross now just is about half of WIR (third week).ROTG now officially one of the biggest bomb of 2012 in China.

Thursday:

LOP ￥11.2M $1.84m

2012 ￥9.5M $1.52m

Most think LOP will do $24~30m with this start. I am not that optimistic though, $20~25m for now.

[Fake]

Even 20m would be good.....

[A Marvel Fanboy]

I dunno. the marketing is crazy and Ang lee is a household name....

[fmpro]

Great news for LOP

[A Marvel Fanboy]

I think it is a meh start.Many distributors expected $50~70m.

[POLYLOVE]

No one mention the news? From now on, Chinese theatres can get a refund (5% of the total gross) from Special Fund commitee for Domestic Films if B.O. of local movies acounts for 50% above of its total revenue.Will it result in massive stolen of the gross of foreign movies nationwide?

It certainly will.

And as far as I learn, the 5% refund will also be splitted between theaters and distributors.
