A Marvel Fanboy Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 (edited) I thought the Detective Dee prequel was going to be released in October? Also, when is Star Trek Into Darkness going to get released in China, and how well do you think its going to do? December now. Tiny Times 2, which I forgot to predict above, is also coming out in December. So it is now three big movies in December. The Detective Dee prequel will be in 3D, and also probably IMAX. STID on May 28th, but guaranteed it will completely get shadowed by ADIC. I see sub 100M opening through 5 days and sub 200M total at the most. It will just be another big Hollywood movie this year in China that never wins any day, any week in the run. If you go by the comparison of GIJ VS Star Trek: GIJ (2009) 135M Star Trek (2009) 55M GIJ 2 (2013) 337M Star Trek into Star Trek (2013) 141M You get STID at 140M. $23M.

Is The Monkey King based off the same material as JTTW? Or is it just a coincidence in names? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Marvel Fanboy Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 (edited) Is The Monkey King based off the same material as JTTW? Or is it just a coincidence in names?

I watched the 1986 CCTV series starring Liu Xiao Ling Tong back then. That one was great, a classic for sure. Other ones after that, not so much How about the movie recently, is it good?

When 707m RMB converted to US dollars, it will be around 115m US dollars and this is why your IM3 cum always come slightly lower than official's cum in US dollars?

A Marvel Fanboy Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 Depending on what exchange rate to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ay72998 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 (edited) Yeah, that's something I noticed too. The US dollar amount slightly differs from various sources that posts these numbers. I think its because the exchange rate of the Chinese yuan to dollar keeps adjusting. And different sources probably didn't use the same exchange rate. So I guess its best to post the number in Chinese yuan? But it will be nice to know the dollar amount as well.
