Some think 100M, I say 150M.

[lab276]

Somehow I doubt it'll pass Titanic.

[SentryTrans]

TASM will pass all of them

Depending on the release date of TASM.My prediction is over 20m admissions.

[Olive]

Sources say that TASM will debut on July 19th, and IA4 will be out 4 days later.

Probably not true. Sony haven't even delivered the final cut to Sarft.

[A Marvel Fanboy]

Mad 3 opening day (today, Friday) should be about 15M yuan ($2.4M).3 days opening should be about 60M (close to $10M). Second biggest opening for an animation.

[SentryTrans]

Madagascar 2 made about $5.3m in China.Madagascar 3 will quintuple Madagascar 2.

200M yuan ($31M) even is possible if OW is well above 60M yuan. Madagascar 3 ould become the second biggest animation in China.

Overall box office in June of 2011 increased more than 130%, even the second half of June was in the protection month of last summer.

If the growth of overall box office in June of 2012 could be negative, I won't be surprised.

Free competition is too far away for China's film market.

How much could TASM gross here?

I say 100-125 mill

[peludo]

I say 100-125 mill

firedeep says 150, others 100, and you 100-125, so I can imagine where it will finish. I only can say . And I see I'd better get used to these numbers because they do nothing but rise
