Other stuff:
The next Holywood releases are Wuthering Heights, GOAT and Hoppers in March. Followed by Mario in early Aprill.
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 which makes sense as a sequel. But its more of a constant trend so far and not any kind of big gains.

Hoppers:
Hoppers meanwhile is pacing way above Elio which did just $4M but below Elemental which did close to $16M. However its closing the gap to Elemental.

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.

This looks like a healthy start for Goat. Cannot wait to see how the number for this and Hoppers will look like in China
