messipotamia Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 That really is too bad, but to be honest I'd be very happy with anything over 30 million (about quadruple the SR number), not sure if that will happen but we'll just have to wait and see. Also on a happier note, MOS now looks likely to take over 300 million so I'm quite happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 30 M is locked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 LOL, 30M is locked, if a big action scale movie like MOS, which is about Superman, who is the most well-known superhero in Asia, can't do 30M in China, that would be a disaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Marvel Fanboy Posted June 16, 2013 Author Share Posted June 16, 2013 Ouch. Is there something going on here, cause I thought the partnership was a big deal and should have helped? Some June/July schedule changes are currently undergoing through Sarft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Marvel Fanboy Posted June 16, 2013 Author Share Posted June 16, 2013 The market is big enough to handle MoS and Jet Li the same time. $50M should happen nevertheless, for both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POLYLOVE Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 The move of BOF will cause at least ¥100M loss of MOS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted June 16, 2013 Author Share Posted June 16, 2013 Man of Steel probably is the first time WB spend a lot on the offline and outdoor promotions for their movie. Heard nearly $2M worth printed materials are promoting MoS. A few local co-promoters on the movie include Nokia, Mengniu (Shuhua Milk), Master Kong (Binghong Tea), etc ...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted June 16, 2013 Author Share Posted June 16, 2013 (edited) STID cume 327M $52.5M as of Sunday. China box office 2013 just reaches the 10B RMB mark ($16M) on Sunday June 16, drawing around 280M admissions from about 12.2M shows. Though the milestone should have made one week earlier had FF6 stayed on 6.8 release, it is still a big improvement from 2012. Last year the 10B was reached in August. Grosses from local Chinese films account for roughly 65%, nearly doubling from 2012. Foreign grosses totaled about 3.2B from 32 releases, decreasing big 33%.

A Marvel Fanboy Posted June 16, 2013 Author Share Posted June 16, 2013 (edited) Can STiD make it to 60M? No ... It dies as Superman arrives this Thursday, plus Jet Li this Friday. Maybe $56M finish for it. Edited June 16, 2013 by firedeep 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Violence Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 (edited) What about those reports that Iceman 3D has been split into two parts and part 1 will be out in December? Two expensive Donnie Yen tentpoles in the space of a month sounds like a recipe for disaster. So are those reports inaccurate, or are the distributors competing for an end-of-year release and waiting to see who chickens out? On a different subject, what about National Day? I remember you said a while back that the Detective Dee prequel was pushed to December, so what else is likely to be out in late Sept/early Oct?

A Marvel Fanboy Posted June 17, 2013 Author Share Posted June 17, 2013 Have you seen those reports that Iceman Cometh 3D has been split into two parts and part 1 will be out in December? Two ridiculously expensive Donnie Yen tentpoles in the space of a month sounds like a recipe for disaster. So are those reports inaccurate, or are the distributors competing for an end-of-year release and waiting to see who chickens out? They change the dates often. For example, TMK had been kept pushing back since 2011. December can handle three super tentpoles. Another one around New Year holiday. Twitch has learned from a source within the production that the current edit of Iceman 3D is somewhere in the region of 3.5 hours long, and rather than dump the extra footage to get the film down to a more audience-friendly two hours, producers have opted to cut it in half, releasing Part 1 this Christmas and Part 2 at Chinese New Year 2014. http://twitchfilm.com/2013/06/iceman-3d-has-too-much-donnie-martial-arts-epic-to-be-split-into-two-films.html? So it looks they are going to release part two of Iceman at the Traditional new years. Either way, Personal Tailor will sweep them all.
