^ Good news about China. It will pass $100 million domestic very soon.

I'd say $400 million is very likely at this point. Maybe closer to $410.

This is good news. It should hit $130 million this weekend in China and with the extended run maybe $145-150 million is possible.

It's at about $98.6 after yesterday, so safe to predict it'll probably top $100M this weekend. Very glad to hear about the extended run in China! :)

I mean we can get into this all day about what "true communism/socialism" entails and the weird "never been tried" argument about how the current Chinese system is "state capitalism" rather than a socialist system and all that mess all day but at the end of the day the ruling body of the state calls itself the Chinese Communist Party and uses a modified form of Marxism as it's official guiding ideology, I think we can safely call them Communists, ChiComs, and Red Chinese as much as we please

You do know that, whether or not we like it, China plays a big part in the box office scores right?

Godzilla is often the savior of Japan, and now China is the savior of Godzilla.

Yeah mine was a joke too. I've had a friend from China tell me, after I jokingly call him a Communist, he's like 'oh we're communists in name now by this point.'

It's like two months ago Iwas annoyed China didn't like Shazam! as much as they loved Aquaman since I really liked both for different reasons. Now I've done a turn and praise them for giving Godzilla a shot in the arm.

That's not funny. The atrocities they're pulling is more important than a Godzilla movie making money.

Alright the gag was also rooting for a movie to make more money in a communist/socialist country is an incredibly vapist and shallow reason to go from green to red. But I don't want to upset people anymore so I'll drop it.

Sad to say my pessimism paid off.
