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 has now passed Captain America 3: Civil War for the 10th place on the Maoyan all time Want To See list.
It has however slowed down in the past few days down to pre-sales starting which usualy stops the momentum of the anticipation metric as the focus shits to pre-sales.

I think it’s time to re-release all the HP & Middle-Earth movies ww
5 million in pre-sales for opening day would lead usually to how much money on opening day box office ?
Nice for Harry Potter
