FF6 was bigger than hobbit 1, FF7 will easily beat hobbit 3.

I agree. 1B will happen here. Maybe even 1,2B

[Pypa94]

Good drop for BOTFA!

[MonstersandRoy]

Hobbit's held well considering the competition and less screens.

[Pypa94]

If only get more screens

[Asyulus]

In comparison, what did DOS make so far on its 2nd weekend.

Great for Hobbit.

Is 130m China possible?

Correct. But lets hope its 3-4 weeks

Disney is trying to release TA2 on 24th Appril, if FF7 opens one week after US date(April 10th), then they will affect each other.

Didn't you say that chances of TA2 opening in April are pretty much 0 so TA2's effect should be minimal.

Many compettition : 2 local hit rom-com open 2.6, MJ1 2.8 & big local romantic movie, Somewhere only we know, 2.10. After it has no big movies release untill CNY 2.19.

First Annie now Unbroken...is there a conspiracy to deplete the imported film pool before Summer or what?

[rockNrollaDIM]

Unbroken got a spot cause Uni thought they could capitalize on anti-Japan sentiment in China but clearly they were wrong.

[boxofficetheorywhy]

any prediction for sowk sales?

TA2 would make a killing with that date

That's good. It is already the highest grossing Hindi film of all time, so anything it makes in China is a bonus. Russia used to get a lot of Hindi movies back in the Soviet Era, Raj Kapoor even made references to Russia and shot movies in Russia (of course, this is back when the Indian political system was the stupid Socialistic Republic system). Wonder why Bollywood stopped tapping into Russia as an audience.

yep good old times of Bollywood domination. We get documentaries abt Raj from time to time on tv

Too bad I was born at the wrong time 

we only got Dhoom 3 & Bride & Prejudice recently 

btw Bollywood still has an audience. I just downlaoad instead of going to to the cinema (helps that i have an online friend from India so she can recommed stuff to me)

 

 

Following the success of Miss Granny in China, two more Korean films Architecture 101 and Cyrano Agency are being planned to get a remake in a joint collaboration effort between studios of the two countries. I really loved Architecture 101, it's one of my favourite film of the romance/comedy genre so I hope they do a good job with the remake. 

I'll add this to my must see list fo Korean movies

 

 

yay BotFA!!!!!!!

my pessimism worked out & I got a nice surprise!

thank you China!
