Other stuff:
The next Holywood releases are The Bride, Crime 101, Wuthering Heights, GOAT and Hoppers in March.
Here's how Mario Galaxy Maoyan WTS numbers compare to the first movie as well as how Hoppers is comparing to Elio and Elemental
Mario:
Clearly pacing way above the first movie. We'l see if it can improve on the first movies $25M total in any significan't way.

Hoppers:
Hoppers meanwhile is pacing way above Elio which did just $4M but below Elemental which did close to $16M

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.
