Yes, the film seems to be falling faster than expected in China. Following a $33 million opening day, on a Saturday, the film plunged 35% to $20.7m on Sunday and then dropped another 65% on Monday for a $7.2m gross. It dropped 17% on Tuesday for a $6m gross and a new $66m four-day total. Disney was able to sell the debut as the biggest Saturday-Sunday opening of all time because basically no major blockbuster had ever opened on a Saturday before.
According to China Insider, younger Chinese moviegoers aren't quite getting into it, and the reviews and word-of-mouth are closer to Spectre than to Furious 7. At this rate of descent, it's looking like the Walt Disney blockbuster will "only" make around $150m during its theatrical run.
quote:This boggles my mind. It's been out for almost a month, and showings are still selling out.
we saw Revenent on sunday night. walking in to the theater, two guys were also going to see revenent, but were complaining that the only reason they were seeing it was b/c star wars was sold out.
quote:Die 3D, die.
I wish they'd do a proper theatrical re-release of all the movies, which they started when they released TPM in 3D and never finished.
The OT in 3D would make a solid $20M each, imo.

The big opening weekend in China wasn't all that big. It was 20th best and is being such huge hits as Transformers 3, Terminator: Genisys, Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation, Transformers: Age of Extinction, & Furious 7.
