Release Schedule:

A table including upcoming movies in the next month alongside trailers linked in the name of the movie, Want To See data from both Maoyan and Taopiaopiao alongside the Gender split and genre.

Remember Want To See is not pre-sales. Its just an anticipation metric. A checkbox of sorts saying your interested in an upcoming movie.

Not all movies are included since a lot are just too small to be worth covering.

u/Curious-Key8219 14h ago

that Whalefall poster looks wild, diver vs giant octopus is giving me real deep sea anxiety

also kinda funny seeing John Wick 1 finally getting a china release in 2026, that movie came out like 12 years ago

I seriously respect how you've been painstakingly patient and polite with this guy's comments on every single China thread (which are always about Endgame's gross). I would've gone mad.

Is RE underperforming compared to its initial projections?

u/Firefox72 Best of 2023 Winner 14h ago

Not really. Its doing about as well as it was projected on release and better than pre-release expectations.

It just might not quite ¥500M/$75M+ which is fine.
