More Imported Films like "Chłopi" (The Peasants), "Bad Genius", "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time" ... are expected to release in China

 

Moreover, there is shortage of films - so - Restrictions on approval are ease (meaning more Imported Films can be released without worrying much both censorship and approval)

[JustLurking]

Looks like Dune will still beat the first film pretty handily, so while not the improvement presales suggested it still more than met my goal here.

How Do You Live? - ¥500M / ¥440M / ¥400M ~ avg. to ¥447M

Howl's Moving Castle - ¥180M / ¥130M / ¥200M ~ avg. to ¥170M

Spy x Family Code: White - ¥140M / ¥160M / ¥100M ~ avg. to ¥133M

So about 65 million dollars overall is predicted for 'How Do You Live' and only 25 million for 'Howl's'. Surprising. Is Howl's getting a more limited release?

[Issac Newton]

Competition with May Day Release in addition they are taking Marketing &WTS Factor. We will see when PS Starts. 

 

But still $35M is a lot of number. Howl's Moving Castle will cross $300M if China give it a $35M boost.

 

Edit: I noticed $25M (mis-read) but $25M is still good. We will see once PS starts

Well, Howl is a 20 years old film. I see logical it to not gross as much as a new film.
