National Day Holidays Total Box Office
The National Day Holidays hit ¥2.10B/$300M which is down -23% from last year. Last year had a weak lineup. This year was worse.
Its a far cry from the heights of ¥4-4.4B between 2019 and 2021. In the last 5 years only 2022 has been worse with ¥1.49B
The Volunteers Part 2 easily wins the Holidays and its overperformance somewhat salvaged the Holidays. With strong reception and weak competition it managed to massively outperfom what Part 1 did last year.
Behind Tiger Rabit Wolf managed to snatch 2nd place on the very last day overtaking 749 which turned out to be a WoM dissaster opening top with $24M+ on its opening day and then ending the Holidays 3rd with just a bit over $50M
Jackie Chans Panda Plan snatches best of the rest against High Forces.
Transformers with a few extra days has to settle for 6th.
And then there is the smaller releases and dissapointments. Most notably Give You Candy which fell completely flat and was even pulled from Theaters from tommorow on to return at a latter date. Not that this will help.

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 passes on 500k Maoyan's Want To See metric and also passes Godzilla X Kong at 504k to become the highest Holywood movie on the list this year.
