Are there any correlation between the box office trends/drops in Taiwan and Mainland China?

I was just wondering. Why is SW popular in Japan but not in the rest of Asia?

Japan is old school compared to the rest of Asia. Just take a look at their stagnant economy, their declining and aging population, etc.

Jumanji is 50% bigger than EP8 on Christmas Day, the gap was only 10% on Thurday

When SW OT 1st released in 1970 and 1980, the japanese cinema market has already mature or open enough to join the SW hype whereas the others asia market, SW were not even released in some of the market.

 

By now, when asian wanted to pick up their SW fever, they find the OT is unwatchable since they are upbrought by more technological advanced visual/sound effect. 

 

Hence, only japanese has a emotional/nostalgic attachment to SW, explain why SW ST make relatively better in Japan while not the rest of Asia.

 

If Hong kong and Taiwan are any signal, TLJ may fare poorly this round in china. By the time it released in china, the bad buzz or at least divisive WOM has already widespread to China's audience....

The Chinese New Year release probably helped give it a huge holiday boost.
