Captain Marvel is clearly getting bad word of mouth in China. Hope it doesn't deter anyone from Endgame! 

I hope it does.

The Lion King will outgross Endgame in China 😎

Wow. I have no words. Would you want someone to say "I hope no one watches Avatar sequels anymore"?

They would have very different taste to me but I wouldn't be upset in the slightest. I'm tired of the MCU! We're 22 films in now and I've had enough.

No one's forcing you to watch though. Just ignore it like many others do. Why would you force yourself to watch something that you're tired of? Others (like me) are really excited for the MCU X-Men and F4 movies and the upcoming Eternals and Shang-chi.

It’s only 44 hours long or so. GoT will be ~70 when it ends. The West Wing is over 150. At 6-8 hours added a year it’ll take us another 16-18 years or so to get there 😈

Hey maybe I'm being selfish but I would prefer other films to be made. I would like to see X-Men too! I really don't like the formulaic approach Marvel take though, their films are just not good. If they MCU can re-invent themselves by letting visionaries take the helm and do something to make an incredible blockbuster of course I'm game. However I don't see that ever happening so I would rather other films be made.

The whole of The Simpsons is over 240 hours...

 

Although there's an anime in Japan called Sazae-san which has over 2500 hours... 

 

USA is nowhere near!

Lol. An MCU movie was just nominated for Best Picture. And I think the term "visionary" applies to Ryan Coogler. And I have high expectations from Chloe Zhao. But this is the China BO thread. I don't think it's appropriate to discuss this here.

Seems like 23-24mn today.

I will be more than happy if CM pull SMH absolute numbers from now on. That would mean ¥950mn or $142mn finish.

Imagine thinking 142M finish is best case scenario after a 89M OW.

But BP has really low Maoyan rating, 8.0 i think. CM has a China drop that is unfit for an 8.8 Maoyan.
