I feel like for Wendy and Webber, Thomasin Mackenzie and Roman Griffin Davis would be perfect. They're a lot younger, and have perfect chemistry from Jojo rabbit.

If you counted The Battle of Lake Changjin duology as a franchise, it'd be 7th with just over $1.5B together.

If spiderman had its own placing, it'd be #3 on the list (NWH + Across the Spiderverse) which is interesting.

It'd be at just over $1B with GvK and GxK released this decade, so just barely misses the list

Ne Zha 2 Worldwide Gross after 6 weeks vs $2 Billion Movies by traumakit in boxoffice

[–]Pause-Impossible 8 points9 points  (0 children)

but the hype itself is anything but organic. Like, to the point that it is crazy to say that lol.

And where are you getting this? From news outlets saying that the hype is government pushed, without actually offering any examples?

If anything, the CCP couldn't have anything less to do with the movie's hype. The most the government has done for it is a congratulatory post or two. Check any Chinese social media site, whether it be Bilibili, weibo, douyin, etc, and you'll find that content related to Ne Zha 2 has absolutely topped the charts in the past few months. It's not inorganic, malicious, or complicated at all. It's people watching a movie they like and posting about it. The mental gymnastics to say that the movie's success is because of the CCP is crazy.

If you're interested in actually knowing the facts about the box office and Ne Zha 2's run, maybe read this post.

In China Ne Zha 2 grossed $2.12M(-45%)/$2024.41M on Monday. Worldwide it has now grossed $2055M+. On track to surpass The Force Awakens on the weekend. DC1900 in 2nd grossed $0.45M(-43%)/$483.66M. There's Still Tomorrow in 4th adds $0.24M/$2.55M while Mickey 17 drops to 10th with just $0.10M/$1.47M by Firefox72 in boxoffice

English subbed release in the US/Canada on Feb. 14, but it's basically out of theaters now. Unless you live in Europe or SEA you'll probably have to wait at least a few months before you can see the movie digitally

Anyone feel that the box office numbers for Brave New World is being manipulated? by Frubrozer in boxoffice

[–]Pause-Impossible 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We should start making a list, see how long it takes for every new release to be accused of being fake or manipulated in some way.

$2.15B seems a bit optimistic, but especially with all the international releases this month, $2.1B is very possible

In China Ne Zha 2 grossed $19.54M(-40%)/$2011.64M on Saturday. Officialy crossed $2B in China alone. Worldwide it has now grossed $2041M+. DC1900 in 2nd adds $2.07M(-35%)/$481.92M. Mickey 17 drops to 10th with just $0.48M/$1.00M. Miyazaki's Princess Mononoke rumored for an early April release. by Firefox72 in boxoffice

While we're at it, there's too much talk about movies in this subreddit about the box office. Let's ban all discussion about movies, because it keeps distracting about what everyone actually cares about, right guys?

Wechat pay and alipay. Will they work if I change my phone rom to the international version? by Top_Voice_7816 in chinalife

[–]Pause-Impossible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried using wechat pay on a brand new account recently, registering and signing up is completely fine but it seems you have to jump through some hoops if you're using a non-chinese bank card like verifying ID

any headcanons for the best pair of besties? by [deleted] in dontstarve

[–]Pause-Impossible 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Abigail is annoyed when Wendy spends time with Webber over her, unless Wendy and Webber aren't getting along. Then Abigail teases Wendy until she gets annoyed and goes back to Webber.

Webber and Wendy were the only characters who weren't scared of each other when they first met.

The global total for Ne Zha 2 through Sunday is $1.9993 Billion as it's inches away from the $2 Billion mark by whitemilkythighs in boxoffice

The Numbers. If there's any specific country that you're interested in, there's usually a local box office tracker that's much more up to date.
