Re: China Box Office
$71m off a $43m opening day is absurd in any market. Not even Twilight managed that kind of ridiculous frontloadedness.

Re: China Box Office
Well, judging by its pre-release interest, seems it was a much-hyped teen flick, and I guess they all rushed out in the first two days.

Re: China Box Office
Apartment of Love has a douban rating of 2.8. The lowest possible score there is 2 since you have to give at least 1 out of 5 stars, so the WoM is atrocious (80% of its ratings are 1-star). Along with the rush factor for being the movie adaptation of a well-received, long-running TV-series, it's no surprise for that kind of frontloadedness.
The Island, on the other hand, is a WoM hit for the first directing effort of Huang Bo, a popular Chinese actor.

Re: China Box Office
Yep the numbers are showing those facts now. Still that kind of melting is just AMAZING. How fast does the WoM travel in China?

Re: China Box Office
People care about scores. And they read reviews through the app.
Apartment of Love was a relative success after day 1 with regards to its budget, though. Asora, however, was not. It was pulled from cinemas after making just $7 million. Its budget? $113 million.

Re: China Box Office
Has there been such a high profile release to have such a heavy drop in its second weekend ?

Re: China Box Office
Well I don't think it was very high profile, but it has a very larger fan base, which now it shows the film's reach also completely doesn't go beyond it.

Re: China Box Office
Fallout opens to $77 million, Ant-Man and The Wasp reaches $108 million, and The Meg passes $150 million.
While these are good, Chinese movies are making so much more. So the government must be very happy. The Island is up to $194 million and Hello Mr. Billionaire is at $370 million.
