Other stuff:
The next Holywood movie to release will be Joker 2 on October 16th followed by Venom 3 on October 23rd.
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 continus to gain massive numbers on the anticipation metric. Here's how it stacks up against some other big post covid movies at the same time.

Just note that this does not mean Venom 3 is locked for $150M or something. But it is a promising sign for another potential $100M+ Holywood movie.

Firefox you could make a separated post with this Venom comparative graphic and update weekly till Venom release/pre-sales start. You have so much knowledge to share and sometimes people into Venom performance in China may miss the news amid your daily report in China. I think it worth it, we may potentially be talking about the biggest post pandemic Hollywood movie in China. A separate with that graphic and your analysis would be great.
