MonstersandRoy Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) Um... DOS jumped close to 40% and BOFA 26% (according to early estimates). Math? Woops, just put numbers into the calculator wrong. Will edit. 39.9% and 25.5%. If BotFA had same DoS Saturday % increase it would have made 130m yuan, rather than 117m yuan.

Elessar Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) So, when does China celebrate new year? In other words, when do the holidays start? EDIT: Impatient as i am, i googled. Holidays start on February 18. Crap, by then BOFA will be doing peanuts. I dunno why people said it starting before Chinese new year is good, it's basically whatever, it's not close enough to holidays to benefit.

keysersoze123 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 So, when does China celebrate new year? In other words, when do the holidays start? Dont know about holidays but CNY is on Feb 19th thursday. I am assuming entire week should be off. But I dont think Hobbit will benefit as huge number o ffilms are releasing by valentines day and Hobbit will have almost no screens from previous friday.
