You can say over 800m yuan but not 750. It had very good drops. 800m is practically a lock.

Somewhere Only We Know presales are crazily good, mockingjay is doomed.

No, it is not. You can expect about $125m, and all of us will be fine with that. AUJ+DOS=BOFA. Good for me.

[pepsa]

If it hadn't had so much competition it could have done 170M +

[Mojoguy]

How come Hollywood movies lose theaters so quickly in China?

Mockingjay - Part 1   6517    (Feb. 8th)

Somewhere Only We Know   21741 (Feb. 10th)  even better than BOFA.

[Fullbuster]

$102m is amazing for BOFA

 

So guys, what do you expect for Avengers 2 in China? $200m seems like a lock for me, $250M is possible

so it means 100m+ for Somewhere only we know? The rom-com is getting more & more big box office. it over mind, even hollywood blockbuster MJ1 is doomed.

Do you guys love saying Mockingjay is doomed or something?

LOL, it's a ridiculous statement, The Hunger Games never has been a strong franchise in China in the first place..

in general hollywood blockbuster consider as the international hit... so it is reasonable that it should do well all where?

Brilliant. Hobbit seems to climb on estimates most days.

 

What percentage of theaters is Running Man playing on this weekend? Seems Hobbit is performaning better on average per screen than Running Man, despite being out for a week longer. Why is the BOTFA going to lose so many screens when still performing strong?
