John Carter today is doing slightly behind Journey 2's first day. Should be a 80M+ yuan ( 13M $) 3 days weekend.

Obviously JC is donging worse than Journey 2's Friday, but we still need to observe the performance in Saturday and Sunday.

The average attendance rate is too low in Friday.Journey 2 costs 80m, but its 3D effects are better than JC costs 250m.

China loves Journey 2 > Mars movies.

China loves Journey 2 > Mars movies.

Most Chinese audiences love those 3D films with good 3D effects.

[CJohn]

That is bad for JC.

[SentryTrans]

The evening performance of JC is quite good, much stronger than daytime.

We should observe the performance in Saturday and Sunday.Friday daytime is working time.

[A Marvel Fanboy]

12M weekend for JC is not bad, it is just modest.

[SentryTrans]

That is bad for JC.

Not every film is Avatar or TF3.China film market is about 30% of NA film market now.We would have to wait for 2 years.

40m in total is possible.I underestimated JC in China 3 weeks ago.

[A Marvel Fanboy]

Second trend:Friday should be more than 20M yuan (3.1M $)

Yeah, 40M is in play if it has a nice jump on Saturday.

Saturday daytime is much stronger than Friday.

My prejections for next main hollywood rleases this year:

John Carter 40M March 16^th

Wonderful!

[A Marvel Fanboy]

Wonderful!

I know. ;)But I feel like to up my WOTT prediction to 60M+. WOTT seems much more appealing to the audience than JC.

[Bluebomb]

I think JC is heading toward 30-35m. WOTT could get about 45-50m IMO.

Less than 35M ? seems bad legs.COTT did 175M yuan in here two years ago, 300M yuan is piece of cake for WOTT, great chance of taking Journey 2 down.

[Bluebomb]

I don't think China is a market for legs. It seems most movies have big openings and then die after a few weeks. The only reason why I suggested that WOTT could only make that much is because of bad WOM from the first one. If people hated the 3D in the first one, they aren't coming back for the 2nd. Of course, some people will see 3D no matter what, it seems.

To Chinese audiences, good 3D effects = good WOM.Some films with bad WOM had made a lot of money in China film market.
