[QUOTE="Grant_C, post: 380490, member: 2991"] Star Wars: The Force Awakens has earned an estimated solid $32.1 million in its first day of play in China. That number comes courtesy of ChinaBoxOffice, For reference, that’s one of the biggest single-day grosses of all time in what is now the second biggest movie-going marketplace. It is just ahead of the $27m opening day of Paramount/Viacom VIAB +5.00% Inc.’s Terminator: Genisys and the $30m opening day of Paramount’s Transformers: Age of Extinction. It is behind merely the $33m opening day of Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron, and the $68m opening day of Universal/Comcast CMCSA +0.00% Corp.’s Furious 7. Of course, it’s possible that the final numbers may bump it above that Avengers 2 number, but that’s an if/when. Obviously the next Star Wars film needs to be called Star Wars: The Age Of The Furious Jedi. Or they could just call it Star Wars: Monster Hunt 2. For further reference, Jurassic World earned $17.7m on its opening day towards an eventual $228m cume. Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation earned $18m on its first day, a record for a 2D release, and eventually earned $136m. Spectre snagged a $15m opening day late last year for an eventual $83m cume. And, of course, the sky-high Terminator Genisys opening day figure led to a massively front-loaded $112m cume in China. Like Terminator, The Force Awakens opens after an extended blackout period on Hollywood exports, which may mean that the figure is somewhat inflated in terms of long term prospects. [/QUOTE]
