Wow, there will be a really close race between F7 and TA2 ! Quiet a few major releases three weeks within F7. Nothing is scheduled one month after TA2. TA2 has better slot than F7.

[tupek]

Hmm, they should change the release dates of the major movies to right after TA2 to clean the path for F7

[Olive]

Final number for FF7 midnights turns out be over 50M yuan! Purely insane!

[keysersoze123]

WOW. How is the daytime looking. Can it do 250m yuan today

[Olive]

TF4 first Sunday made 214m on 57k showtimes.

FF4 WILL undoubtedly beatthat with 80k showtimes Sunday minus midnight

[baumer]

And with this number can it challenge Transformers for the biggest ever?

It keeps going up. 34-46-50M, where do you see it finishing now? Is $250M possible for the total?

[Olive]

250m is locked imo.

currently PSA is higher than TF4 Sunday Atthe same point

[druv10]

250m is locked imo.

With 80K shows * 40 ticket price * 90-100 PSA 288M-322M Yuan or $46.5M-$52M OD, Holy crap.

FF7 will get a boost from the May Day holiday in China as well. Literally no competition for it from Hollywood movies I gather. SARFT may now load the post-Avengers release dates with Hollywood movies looking at Furious 7 lording it over local movies I guess.

Sunday show count

Sunday show count

Let me get this straight. 80000 shows in one day.

[grim22]

Let me get this straight. 80000 shows in one day.

 

It's China. They have a population of 1.3Billion, 80000 shows is not that huge when you consider that number. That is a lower shows per person than the US for FF7. 4100 theaters in the US, let's assume 2.5 screens per theater and 5 shows daily per screen (which is normally what a huge release movie gets), that is roughly 50000 to 60000 shows daily in the US even taking conservative estimate, and the US only has a population of 350million or so.

[Chewy]

Holy shit!

[keysersoze123]

Actually 80k shows is minus midnights. So $50m today looks good

[johntw99]

300m is locked

[Emirazza]

50M OD including 8M midnights?

[vc2002]

I thought TF4's OD and OW brought out almost the full potential of the Chinese market. Oh boy how wrong was that.
