Continue your journey guy... Hey! Remember me! I agree Asian films are wayyyyyy better than people give them credit for. I would say chinese comedy+drama movies are really good. Thailand, indonesia and hong kong make great action films. South Korean thrillers, horror, drama, romance are great. Really asian cinema is awesome. Ps:could you pm me a link to Train to Busan?

kswiston Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Why did Olive stop posting the dailies? Was it do to a lack of posting by other people, or was it because someone else tried to take over that role briefly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This app updates bo receipts in realtime whereas the URL above updates every 30 mins.

Newbie Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 7 hours ago, Mojoguy said: Why did Star Trek fail in China? What were you expecting it to do? Have no idea in local currency (virus the two previous Trek films), but its increased for the US Dollar each of its three releases. I would guess a final take (in dollars) close to 70 million (currently estimated by Deadline at 63.3 million) versus Into Darkness' $57 million (in US dollars, again). And this film lacked any star that has strong appeal in China. I always assumed that Into Darkness benefited by casting Benedict Cumberbatch who seems to have a rather large following for an actor of his limited box office. With the overall lack of large increase for this year in China''s box office (especially versus previous years),and the fact that with very few exceptions (and none of them large markets) Beyond is averaging more then 20% less then what Into Darkness did, I never imagined a significant increase. In fact I thought it was quite possible that it could even decline versus the last film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The growth is dead and with it goes the weekly excitement of breakout BO. like other OS threads, this will pick up when a movie is having a good run. Sept is going to be down from last year. Still nothing has had a great run since May. Hopefully something will break out soon. Looks like Sunday was a workday. Total BO was down 50% from Saturday. JB5 and IA5 are going to finish neck and neck at 447m/$65m this week. STB will get close to that number as well. Nine Lives will just get over 100m/ $15m. The Shallows will just fall short.

Gavin Feng Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Thursday is the end of Jason Bourne’s running time, and the total number would be nearly $68 million. Star Trek Beyond would be ending with $65 million. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storks has just 700k in PS for Friday's open. Expecting that to be less than ¥15m OD along with a local opener with the same amount of PS. Oct 1 is the start of a long holiday. 3 local openers on Sept 30th. Last year saw LiHK and GML do ¥1.5B and ¥1.4B during this holiday. 1 release has 700k in PS so far. Sept on pace to do ¥2.2-2.4B depending on the size of the 30th openers and will be down 25-30% from last year. YTD is now up 9% over last year.
