China's Dalian Wanda to Buy Odeon & UCI Cinemas

Wanda will be a powerful player in Chinese movie market next year. They began making local movies already, local blockbusters with big budget. It's getting more interesting....

Wow, what is this movie called SEEKING MR RIGHT? That gross figure is amazing for the genre. On the other hand, the gross for IP MAN FINAL FIGHT proves that the IP MAN sub-genre is wearing thin. AGDTD could have done closer to $50 million but I think Fox will take that. I see that DH5 isn;t distributed by Fox in China. How much does the local distributor have to pay for the rights?

Charts took bit longer than I thought.

[A Marvel Fanboy]

Real time report (10:50am, Thursday):

 

So Django Unchained was pulled off by Sarft when it was already on screens in most theaters early morning matinee shows, which means its release has just been cancelled. Wether if it can get back on screens remains unknown.

[Olive]

What the fuck!!

Decided to see it tonight with my friend.  

[Alex Bennett]

 The government are agitated about the failure of castration of Django in the movie so they decide to do it by themselves.

Update:

 

DU indeed has got cancelled release by CFGC.

 

Still it managed to set two records in China:

1) lowest grossed imported revenue sharing film: box office RMB 25683 yuan with 716 admissions via 87 shows [midnight debut).

2) shortest screening time (got closed in less than 11 hours after midnight opening).
