Shit happens ...

RE5 just came alive from its grave. Will be released sometime in Feb as a revenue sharing film. Another one of the 34 quota wasted ....

That's good. Re5 deserves a quota. There is a Chinese actress in the movie, and Resident Evil is popular among young people. Edited January 1, 2013 by POLYLOVE

Yyets unleashed the dvd version of Skyfall today. It might influence the boxoffice a little bit.

What da fu......??

[A Marvel Fanboy]

The new year holiday boosts might be underestimated ...LiT should reach 1200M (or at least very close) by this Sunday; Another 100M next week and so. Even 1300M total for LiT seems almost certain. $210m~215m ? :mellow:Avatar (1390M or 1350M depending on source) is in serious danger ....Farewell, Pandora ...

A record in China is short-lived anyway with that growth rate.While i don't think grosses go up as fast as the number of theaters that gets added every year, they do go up.

[A Marvel Fanboy]

$222M?

Too early to laugh ...

At least I was trying to project as close as possible.

An yearly B.O. increase between 25%~35% can continue in next few years.

[Fake]

Pacific Rim will do 100m+ methinks.

[Olive]

If it gets a good release date.But WB movies always have bad date.

Biggest original Hollywood movie is still Inception, $70M.After all PR is not a sequel. And it needs to be very good.

[Fake]

Bait grossed 26m. That means creature-features are big in China. And we already know how big robots/aliens are. Transformers needs no explanation. Even Battleshit grossed 50m+ despite flopping everywhere else.PR will have both. 100m is actually conservative IMO.
