(Just like how they suddenly felt that Paul Walker was their own during FF7, even though Paul Walker films have never done well there previously)@ttr - this relates to u as well. The Paul Walker - Furious 7 thing in China was so strange... But I sort of understand how it may have happened, I've head from people who told me they were never into the Fast/Furious franchise, but watched all 6 of them because of Walker's death, and it felt like watching him growing up which created an instant connection. The Walker-Furious 7, or Ledge TDK effect probably won't apply to EP8 as much, especially not likely in China.

terrestrial Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Strange, my post is away... OK. me seems China gets a kind of Sci-Fi 'fest' in January, as Arrival gets released at 20 January too. Isn't there a local Sci-Fi also already in release or getting released soon? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerPaw Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Let's discuss the Elephant in the room. Can R1 earm 100m Yuan single day - today? Maoyan reviews dropped to 7.9.. a very bad sign. And now at 2.10pm, it is only at almost 30m yuan. Not very strong.... and with this Medicore WOM, I think it will gross only 85m yuan today. (I hope I am wrong, and it explodes tonight!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 100m is impossible. 80-85m is likely number for today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something is wrong.... I'm trying to read those negative feedbacks in Douban and Maoyan... It's just... the same like before, people think Ro1 is a snoozefest, again! The first half of Ro1 is messy, it makes the Chinese audience feel impatient, people have to play with the game on their smartphone and wait for something better to happen...

A big flop. 3 I felt sad for my hero. I don't want to miss any of his films tbh, but hey it's the SW series. I have never watched one and don't want to watch either. How is his character? Did he get enough screen times? I just want him to do well and get worldwide recognition. He just broke into HLW in his 50s. It's kinda late but better than not. If the world has justice, he should become the king of action/martial art star soon. He already did it in my heart ???. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracking Maoyan every 30minutes to see that average of 3m grow is painful. =( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
