China Box Office Thread | Deadpool & Wolverine- July 26

[TLK]

I saw the Rentrak chart yesterday, Simply stunning. BTW, movie #5 is a Russian horror movie Viy and #6 is a Korean movie, I don't think I have ever seen 4 non-Hollywood movies in the top 10 worldwide.

China's box office went from one of the bright spots and the most interesting 2 or 3 years ago to the most disappointing today :/  I hope people get tired of the shitty native films they're being fed soon.

 

Not gonna happen. If anything, increased success of native movies mean bigger budgets and more crowd pleasing movies. I think Hollywood movies will keep doing well in China but they are only going to face more competition from this point on.

Who decides how many screens a movie loses as time passes by? It seems hollywood movies have a raw deal compared to reigonal ones in terms of screen allocation.

Frozen will only have 10 days. lots of local rom-com opens on VD.

[Incarnadine]

It does seem like Frozen isn't even getting a real shot in China. Relegated to fewer screens and just a 10 day run? It's at a huge disadvantage before it's even known how it it is received there.

Ah well, that's still 10 days more than it was originally supposed to have in China, everything it makes there is an extra helping of gravy.

Really? As if restricting the theatre share wasn't enough already. Why does China hate awesome movies?

Strong pollution could have a strong effect on their minds, it's the only reason I can imagine

Last weekend Macau had 19.3% showtimes and it did $3.3 M. OD and $12 M. OW. So can we expect half of it for Frozen at least? Edited February 4, 2014 by HenryBcn

Probably will go down as the dumbest thing you've ever posted.  Yeah, when will China wake up and realize how much they're missing by not showing Movie 43, R.I.P.D. and Scary Movie 5!!
