I read the numbers wrong. Kinda concerned it would beat Mermaid's record but now I'm relieved. This will be Jing Boran's second huge summer movie. I came across some reviews and it seems on par with what I expected - bad movie, bad effects and bad acting. But it's a very popular IP so it's gonna do good in the B.O.

Especially the one with Li Yifeng and Yang Yang. People were hopeful the movie would be a bit better but alas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's a Guo Jingming movie and his movies usually have poor quality so it's going to get awful WOM too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MinaTakla Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 So @Olive and @No Prisoners- now that we have Pet's first 4 day performance, where do you think is it heading in local currency by the end of its run? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will make 75-80 on weekends, 185-190M by Sunday. Next two weeks, no direct competition, 350M is locked IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like what olive said. Nothing big opening next week but there will be a bit of screen loss. 350 will probably happen. I thought it would be a runner with that audience score though and no comp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus it was supposed to be out Aug 19 but escaped(changed release date) due to Bourne and Ice Age. Same as Chinese Odyssey, also stars Wu Jing.. Aug 19 but moved to Sept. Movies starring Wu Jing tend to chsnge release dates often.. eg the first Wolf Warriors.. changed a couple of times. Lack of confidence.

No one will ever top Stephen Chow's performance as Monkey King in the previous Chinese Odysseys. He should let the series rest gracefully. Instead he filmed a movie and now a drama starring the blandest of actors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember I watched his martial art performance on the tv show and he did it pretty good. But for comedy, it would be very hard on him. If audience want to enjoy the show, they shouldn't compare him to legendary Stephen Chow. As you said no one will ever reach his level. Can't imagine how Han Geng's performance. 13 hours ago, TigerPaw said: That's not a Wu Jing movie. He is cameo at best.

Since he is the only one actor who can do martial art in this movie, I would pretend that he has big role lol. I think the casting need to be more careful.

His martial arts is nothing but angling and show. Not much substance, technique or art. He's no Donnie Yen. The dude is also a huge drama queen which is a big turn off. Not a fan of Hangeng but he's not a bad actor so at least there's that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he was born in 1993. All I can see is he has some talent related to martial art. As an idol, he was mainly trained on making music, singing and dancing. If he gets martial art training, at least he will be better than his peers. And that kind of drama doesn't need professional martial art actor tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
