    Daily Box Office(March 9th 2026)

    The market hits ¥37.7M/$5.45M. Down -74% yesterday and down -72% from last week.

    Goat pre-sales for Saturday hit $383k. Heading for what i assume will be an at least $1.5M opening day.

    Hoppers Maoyan and Tao Want To See numbers have started to pick up pace. I'm thinking ¥150M/$20M+ total should be achievable for this if its well received.

    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. However its not really adding a lot per days for now.

    Hoppers:

    Hoppers meanwhile is pacing way above Elio which did just $4M but below Elemental which did close to $16M. However its been picking up pace over the last few days.

    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.
