China Box Office Thread | Deadpool & Wolverine- July 26

Presales are notably trailing Mojin which opened on a weekday!

Mojin made 161M on OD without 8.5M midnights.

[Quigley]

We can only hope for strong walk-ups. I don't mind though. It's already broken records everywhere else and will break $2 billion WW. There's literally nothing more one could have wished for. It would be ideal if it out-grossed Furious 7 overseas but no big deal if it doesn't.

Presales are underwhelming, I have a bad feeling about this.

 

Me to. I still giggle when thinking of posters in here who thinks/Thought 300 mill $ was a lock...

anything over 100-125 mill $ should be looked at as extra gravy. SW is not a China thing.

It wouldn't be surprising since it's been behaving more like a mid level tent pole than a mega blockbuster in most of Asia with the notable exception of Japan.

Wouldn't it be nice if it bombs hard in China, giving Titanic a chance to remain number 2 worldwide? Ah, but a fool's hope it is....

It would indeed. But then Titanic leads by far in admissions anyway.

They thought that way probably because they read that anticipation was record high for TFA in the western press and also feel that TFA > FF7. I thought similarly after reading a Reuters article saying the social media resharing was twice that of FF7 -- then I came to BOT and was disabused of that notion by the informed Chinese posters here.

T5 was 167 OD Sunday, 365 OWeek 

It's looking much lower so far.

That means another conversation is on the way.

Based on presales, EP7 is tracking to 200-220M yuan OW...

Let's see whether it can pick up in the next couple of days.

January 6th/ Wednesday  est:
Detective Chinatown 28M/518M
Sherlock: The Abominable Bride 18.7m/78m
Mr. Six 17M/752M
Mojin 12.1M/1593M
D&A 1.8M/642M
Little Door Gods 0.73M/70.35M

Around 75% movie tickets are bought online, so presales do mean something nowadays.

Do you see the picture?

I had a lot of problems recently, since they cleared those I seem to have problems, especially with tweeted pics
