China Box Office Thread | Oppenheimer-August 30

[ZeeSoh]

Rating has fallen from 7.9 to 7.5 literally in minutes. Very early still though so ratings will fluctuate a lot and could very well rise. But such low rating could lead to very short legs

Thursday Estimates

 

Tomb Raider - 20.32 (-17.3%)

Total - $57.6m USD

Will lose about half of its screen tomorrow and PS is at 2m

 

Black Panther - 5.58 ($0.88)

Total - $100m USD

Finally crosses 100m. Will also lose about half of its screen tomorrow. Maybe will make 3 million or so more from this point

 

Pacific Rim 2 - 8.88 ($1.4m)

 

PS for tomorrow at 45 million. Its rating at the start is 7.7 which is very low and not a very good sign of its legs. 

still thinking $70-$75 for TR ?

Chinese audience hated him in TLJ, so it could be the reason why.

Doubtful. Most of the lower ratings on Maoyan are complaining about the plot, the fighting style of the mechs, and how it’s not as good as the first movie.

PR2 coming for 85% second week drop.

Did Chinese audience saw TLJ ? It sold what around 7m tickets in China (how many moivies goers is there in that market, close to 200M now  ?)

 

I imagine the cross over potential audience is big here (English-action Fantasy type of movie), but still was Last Jedi big enough to have a relevant impact on anyone involved ?

It made pretty much the same as BP did on its 7th day (Thursday). Although its PS for tomorrow is about 30% less than what BP had for its second Friday it should still make a similar amount this weekend that BP did ($12m) which would bring it close to $70m. 

 

BP is gonna make about $7m more after its second weekend. TR should do the same or better. I think it could get to $80m, maybe even more if PR2 flops. Lets see how the weekend goes first

80 or more that would be fantastic. with China numbers from thursday and Domestic wednesday its sitting on about 150 million WW minus all the other countries which last update was sunday 18th.

wait a while before you judge on the maoyan score.

What do you guys think about FB2? Can it increase

A lot fewer American films will get a China release after Trump started a trade war with China. US movies are an easy target for retailiation.

Yeah I was about to post that. But I think the trade war will go on a long road before hitting entertainment products. China will target agriculture products first because farmers are big Trump supporters and hurting them will do the best job of hurting Trump. Hollywood isn't really fond of Trump in the first place, so hurting Hollywood doesn't really do much.

Am I the only one who thinks PR2 might decrease from the first one. This sequel looks terrible.

PR:U Maoyan 7.4 now.

Glad to see Tomb Raider thriving, I hope it has a shot at $100 million. 

[KP1025]

I'm guessing we won't get a Hollywood blockbuster with 9.0 or higher on Maoyan until Rampage. Everything since Black Panther has had bad WOM.

[Gabriel Sales]

Does anyone believe that the US-initiated trade war with China could reflect a tighter embargo on american films?

 

I believe that in this war (chinese box office) US and Hollywood have a lot to lose!
