What sort of money is Hunger Games going to make next? Last one only made $12m opening weekend. Not in Hobbit's league in terms of popularity in China?

MJ1's total will likely be around half of TH3's opening weekend.

[Olive]

MJ1 opens  on  Sunday, a big local movie opens 2 days later..

Sidenote:

Wanda Media (万达影视) launched a new distribution brand, Wuzhou (五洲) Film Distribution, with investments from Wanda's brother cinema circles: Jinyi (金逸), Dadi (大地) and HG Entertainment (横店). Therefore, Wuzhou is like a SUPER cinema chain which distribute movies.

The original Wanda distribution brand is no longer used. Future products from Wanda Cinema will be distributed through Wuzhou.

Meanwhile, all future films from Media Asia (including Helios this year) and certain future films from EDKO (like Monster Hunt this year) will be also distributed by Wuzhou, meaning all HongKong based distributors have pretty much all exited the Mainland market.

Top 10 distributors in coming few years probably will be:

CFGC & Huaxia (中影)

Enlight (光线)

Huayi (华谊)

Bona (博纳)

LeVision (乐视)

YingLian (影联)

SFG (上影)

Alibaba Film (阿里) (not sure about them though)

[Pypa94]

Similar on Monday to Tuesday (-7,9% vs -8,7%) better for BOTFA.

[Elessar]

Oh, my, weekend drop is gonna be brutal. Friday probably won't be better than 20m...

[Olive]

This Fri- S-S should be 27-40-33M

[Elessar]

I thought it'll drop from Thursday quite a bit due to new openers.

 

Don't movies usually increase by about 100% on saturday (non-opening-weekends)?

 

Can you post DOS numbers for the whole week plus next weekend? Thanks.

[Pypa94]

Apes increase 79%
