A Marvel Fanboy Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 First wave audience usually have very high anticipation ... in other words, they are harder to be surprised.

LexJoker Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 CF is more driven for mass market acceptance. The early dull reaction for GRAVITY, if it is true, points to the fact that Chinese audience prefers wall-to-wall action like TF & FF. The deliberate long takes with little dialogue may give them the idea that this movie is not "worth it." But LOP was a huge success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) Hefty drop for Thor 2 ... by Friday, it will have less than 8% screenings, compared with 27% on Monday ... Monday (9.3m) will be its biggest day of this week. Whole week could be less than 40m (9.2/6.8/6/3.3/3.5/6.2/5.7), down 75% from previous week (155m) ... ough. Another 10m for next week, then it will be gone with 335M finish or so. As for Red 2, even $10m (61m) is likely gone. One of the worst legs coming off 35m 3days opening. All due to crowded schedule.

A Marvel Fanboy Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) Projection for Gravity ? 32/28/21/29/50/40 = 200 5days ? Possible ! 400M $65m is happening, very ... Assuming 200m ow, Pacific Rim legs would carry it to 490m finish. See how it plays out next few days. This Saturday will be the first 100M+ day in Novemver history. Could even hit 120m.

A Marvel Fanboy Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) Once again while taking #1 market share at the US/CA box office, WB finally have been enjoying a great year in China. WB had 5 of their films released in China this year: PR 694m, MoS 397m, Hobbit 315m, Gatsby 85m (not really a WB quota but through AU counting on VRS, but lets just assume it's from WB), Gravity 490m (projected), grossing 1981m RMB (more than #320m) in total. That will be higher than any other Hollywood studio, making WB taking the champion in China among its Hollywood buddies for the first time since 1994 by my memory (correct me if wrong). Fox, Paramount, Sony and Disney all have won before. Universal never have. With a projected 23B RMB yearly box office for 2013, that is a 8.61% market share for WB in China, bigger improvement from last year's 7%. WB is not a distributor in China, but assuming they are, their market share is still no where near the top local distributors: CFC, Huaixa, Huayi and Enlight. They did beat Bona though. Huayi and Enlight are the leading two at the moment if we dont count state-owned policy distributors China Film and Huaxia.

Uhh if Pacific Rim had a 494m finish and Gravity is projected to finish with 490m does that mean it will make $110m USD? Or is ther a typo somewhere?
