China Box Office Thread | Oppenheimer-August 30

Recommended Posts



Ping-pong of China which had been officially released for 2 days, has now announced that it will change its premiere date to 17th of Feb.

 

All current showings / box office are consider pre-screening / sneak-previews.

 

Poor box office performance caused this decision...not sure whether it will do better in Mid Feb.

Getting better for each day now. Good to see. How is Wakanda Forever doing?

WF: 153k

AM3:111k

The initial numbers were low most probably because the people didn't think that they will release in China as simple as that

its a smart move. February doesn’t really have any huge competition so I expect the movie to do relatively well.

Full River Red and The Wandering Earth 2 have both passed Avatar 2 full China box office haul in only 5 days. Will likely double it by the end of the weekend. That’s ridiculous especially considering Avatar’s popularity in China. 


It’s not A2’s fault to be fair.

at this point should just be happy china is still giving a2 more than $1m per day and hopefully by the time a3 comes out, covid is a complete non issue in china instead of the up and down roller coaster its been since 2020, and despite that a2 is still the highest hollywood grosser since the pandemic started in the market

im mostly ignorant when it comes to CNY box office workings, but it seems like a worthwhile question

 

last week, avatar still had over 100k screenings and was only making 2-3 million a day, most people believe that has a lot to do with covid, now a week later CNY new year comes around and we get 2 500 million plus grossers with one threatening 700 million, all the while its possible this year's CNY box office haul surpasees last year's non-covid affected one

 

Cant imagine things have changed too much since last week, so I ask, if covid was somewhat under control why wasnt avatar grossing 10-20 million a day; the types of daily grosses that would correspond with many of our pre-release no covid predictions

 

Is it simply a matter of us overstimating how much interest the chinese people have for avatar? was the ceiling 500 million instead of 1 billion? or is it just CNY machinations which resulted in avatar not getting super numbers when the worst of covid passed,  what type of gross could we have expected from avatar if it had as many screenings as wandering earth 2 over CNY?

Will Boonie Bears: Guardian Code outgross Avatar 2 in China? Right now Boonie Bears has earned approximately $92 million in 5 days and with the movie still enjoying good admissions it looks like it has a chance of equaling Avatar 2 takings at the China box office or even surpassing it. 

no,this one ¥1300m max

They are now just realizing it's a Scamdemic.
