Other stuff:
The next Holywood movie to release will be Joker 2 on October 16th followed by Venom 3 on October 23rd.
Joker 2
A tempered start but really hard to make any real reads after just 1 day and not even a full one.
Runtime is confirmed to be 137 minutes so there should be no cuts.

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.
October:
Venom 3 crosses 550k on the WTS metric.
