what do you mean?

 

Sorry I meant what time is it for them now.

 

And based on the $49 million it's made so far how much does it look like It could finish it's run with?

[alee7915]

if you are in the UK, 7 hours ahead

Entgroup usually uptdate yesterday's initial box office at 13:00(beijing time).

But they will keep updating it,so  the final number is often higher than the initial number. 

[scabab]

So the updates that Super Girl usually gives is an estimate from this Entgroup?

[alisson23]

So Divergent is with +- $4.30M.Good. My prediction looks achievable.

No.  It is from weibo as weibo is more quicker to know how a film performs on that day.  Weibo will provide an est numbers at the end of the day(same day).

Oh I see. So is $70 million now possible for EX3?

[TServo2049]

Screen Daily just put out a weekly China report, still seems to be based on the incomplete Entgroup numbers? They say EX3 only made $32.84M last week: http://www.screendaily.com/territories/asia-pacific/expendables-3-tops-china-box-office/5077373.article?blocktitle=LATEST-FILM-NEWS-HEADLINES&contentID=42422At this rate, I wonder if the real numbers will ever be officially reported. And will they ever get fixed on places like BOM, or will this current week look inflated due to the coming corrections being rolled into it?

Screendaily is using entgroup numbers which you can find it on http://english.entgroup.cn/views_detail.aspx?id=2579

 

 

But again these weekly numbers were based on incomplete data!

 

However, if you look at Entgroup's Tuesday numbers on http://data.entgroup.cn/ , you will noticed that Entgroup has updated their numbers.  Entgroup is a local tracking firm and many studios are Entgroup's client.

Entgroup usually provides daily numbers by noon european time or even earlier.  They are like 95-97% from actuals because some theaters report later than most.  Still it's a very good indication of film grosses most of the time. Missed grosses will be included in next day updates.

 

Early numbers from web blogs are more like early deadline or box office numers. Most of the time they are close to actuals but sometimes they might be way off.

I spoke to Entgroup this morning and they have told me that these weekly numbers above are based on incomplete data.  Entgroup already said that there was a system error since 5th of September.  However, the system is now back to normal on today afternoon, this is why you will see Entgroup have updated Tuesday daily numbers and total numbers on today afternoon.

 

Tuesday numbers according Entgroup:http://data.entgroup.cn/

Also entgroup  uses slightly different exchange rates than you are using here. So their numbers are always slightly higher. 

[TServo2049]

I guess they're never going to go back and fix last week's numbers, then?

[alee7915]

TServo2049, as you said before, this current week will look inflated due to the corrections being rolled into it.

Lucy is releasing this week, right?

[scabab]

Yeah won't BOM just use the current Chinese number at the time and the nuse that? Making it look like it made more during the second week that it really had?

[johntw99]

No,gewara  doesn't list Lucy as upcoming movie.

BOM always(over 90%)use Entgroup's numbers.  Entgroup is not a local distributor or cinema.  Entgroup is a local tracking firm.  Many studios are Entgroup's client(Disney, 20 Fox century etc).
