Re: China Box Office
Hmm but that's still 2 weeks from now I guess? Should do decent by that time.

Re: China Box Office
Yep. That's what I thought. It has two weeks to make money and will do well with this favorable schedule and good ratings.

Re: China Box Office
In Hong Kong it is 1 day. Just Thursday. In China it is three days. Thurs-Sat (though Sat is off anyway), and Sunday is a working day, but children will still be off Sunday, so Sunday will not be affected that much. Thurs and Friday being holidays will boost those days.

Re: China Box Office

By the way, Ching Ming (or Qīng Míng) is a fixed date matching a solar term in the lunisolar calendar ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_term). It is interesting how China randomly stretches a 1-day solar phenomenon into a 3-day holiday when it used to be a non-holiday there.

Re: China Box Office
They do it so people have a block of days off together. If a festival falls on a Wednesday, for example, they will move the days off at the weekend so people can have three days in a row as opposed to just the Wednesday off. Sometimes it works out good, other times not. But it's China's way of doing it.

Re: China Box Office
Just realized that this will be out in 3rd weekend of IW in China. Don't think it is bad but that could take away a lot of buzz from the movie. Algren when is DP2 releasing in China?
