druv10 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Holy hell, that's a great OD for Ant-man. 100M+ total looks very likely now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jiangsen Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Marvel is a well known brand all over China...$100M for Ant-Man shouldn't really come as a surprise when GOTG made about the same last year. I understand why expectations have been tempered, but Marvel isn't going to suddenly crash in China. So we can already forget that panic moment that people had here when both Minions and MI5 did not reach the amounts we had predicted and everybody had asumed as normal given the growth of the market... IMO, Ant-Man making something close to $100m in China is a huge surprise. No matters what we compare to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand why expectations have been tempered, but Marvel isn't going to suddenly crash in China. True but most were expecting 60-80M so 100M+ is a pleasant surprise.

Olive Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) $100m is locked, could beat IM3(750m yuan). Edited October 16, 2015 by The GOOD Olive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TalismanRing Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 I believe it was around 6.2. Olive you really think 750M yuan is possible? That would make it 2nd biggest Marvel movie after AoU. Why not? GOTG almost did $100m and this opened bigger. IM3 came out 2 1/2 years ago, TWS a 1 1/2 years . The China box office has exploded since then.

I only know as a fast check tings like this but have not the time to check for more for now I prefer to compare Yuan amounts. GotG did around 595 million Yuan, if I am not wrong. That is the amount to beat. Edited October 16, 2015 by peludo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
