Thanks, was the 52.4m presales only for F7 or walk ups too?

That was the total. There aren't a lot of walk ups for MN. Don't know what the number was 2 hours out.

Nice

Nice, makes sense considering the big game following. Now we have to see how it does tomorrow and over the next 5 days. Wonder if 300M OD without midnights and 1Bil over the 5 days is possible?

[Blackout]

wonder how will the WOM for Warcraft be. I'm a WoW player and honestly the film doesn't look that appealing to me personally.

Not sure, If F7 did 343M OD, then I think 300M is certainly achievable. What was F7's 5 day total? (When did it reach 1 billion?)

Really cool, this might end up even higher right?

PS at 92m for OD. 300m doubtful

Holiday from Thu to sat, with a 225-250m OD and a bump and hold for Thu- sat it could get to 1B in 4 days. Up to WoM.

They have their own taste. What's universally rejected in domestic and OS can pop here and vice versa.

PS will add a few million in the early hours. 

It was PS heavy at the start. It may not have 2.75 x PS like CA3

I think it will do 2.25-2.50 x PS.

So, is X-Men performing well?

 

If so, can it make more than 100 million in China?

[Mrstickball]

How reliable/informative are Gewara's user review scores for movies? Warcraft just jumped up to 9.4 from 7.0 in reviews prior to release.

That's a good start, it usually drops after initial pop. @Olive said Douban is a better indicator though

I think every film starts at 7.0 as a pre release default score and go from there. Warcraft is having an initial fanboy rush, at 8.8 douban score now, will probably drop very soon.

[VinceMichaudC]

How's NYSM2 looking? HK thread mentions it's doing quite well there. How about China? I know currently it's all about Warcraft, still curious though.

[Mojoguy]

Do Chinese fanboys care about Starcraft or Diablo? Would those movies do well in China?

[POTUS 2020]

WC has a run rate of 11.5m per hour. That will take the total to 245m. The rate usually increase after 1800 by 50%, but could fade due to presale sellouts. 230m - 270m for OD.

PS indicating a bump for tomorrow. Not sure how much just yet, but 30% would be a big target since many are off from school today.  TF4 bumped 27% after a summer Friday open.

 

XMA running at 1.6m per hour and will increase after 1800.  Looking at 25m+ and PS indicating a bump for tomorrow, could be a typical SH sat bump of 80%. 657m/ $100m locked. Beating DoFP looking good.

 

Run rate increased. Updated 1430 Beijing time

all three Blizzard franchises has been popular at some point in China, so there will be a nostalgia factor for all.of them, maybe not quite as much as Warcraft, but I think they could all do well.

WC midnight 50M

FF7's record survived

[keysersoze123]

Still great considering its a tuesday midnight. Today the number is already crossed 150m. I am thinking 250-270m OD minus midnights can happen.
