druv10 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I don't think Pi will get extended-run, several 3D local movies come soon.Damn, I wanted 100M. Regardless, it's run has been mighty impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 From THR: 'Skyfall' and 'The Hobbit' to be Released One Month Apart in China (Report) So Bond and Baggins might not be battling it out in China after all. After weeks of speculation about Skyfall and The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey being given same-week releases in the country, online reports have indicated the two films will be released nearly a month apart, with the latest 007 installment unsheathing his Colt on Jan. 20 and the Lord of the Rings spin-off unspooling on Feb. 15.

Bob Violence Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) The Hobbit could still be put against something else. firedeep had three February possibilities on the list he posted a couple of weeks back: Cloud Atlas (which has to come out sometime, since there was some Chinese production involvement), A Good Day to Die Hard (which could come out in mid-February to coincide with the international release), and Django Unchained (the Chinese media is now reporting that Sony wants a mainland release--it'll be interesting to see how that pans out). I think The Hobbit would do OK against any of these movies, but it'd still take a hit. Edited December 13, 2012 by Bob Violence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No actual dates are set for all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted December 14, 2012 Author Share Posted December 14, 2012 They surely are. As I have said, most biggest local movies always come in Oct, November and December.So despite local films market share fell to 30% in first 6 months and 42% in first 9 months. The ratio will be back to 50%+ after December. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
