Performed badly in mainland box office run. Apparently this type of movie doesn't appeal that much to their audience.
Pity him... invested loads of money and time into this movie. Will support him by watching this movie upon its release in TVBox, of course.... This post has been edited by vassilius: Nov 7 2022, 12:52 PM |

QUOTE(Namelessone1973 @ Nov 7 2022, 12:49 PM) Unfortunately, there’s a big gap since TVB went downhill from late 90’s onwards. HK movie industry deserved this outcome after years and years of letting all these "Ah Gor Ah Jie" control, exploit, and took up all the opportunities for themselves without leaving any for the young stars. The last movie star that came out from TVB is Louis Koo and that was back in the 90’s. The leading man of TVB in the 90’s who did not go out to movies are still leading man in TVB today. There are a few younger leading man in TVB today but they are just not movie star quality level.  Now all these old stars are about to retire after earning loads of money and fame, suddenly the HK movie industry found themselves without any new rising stars to fill that void. They scramble to build back that talents gap, but its already too late as ppl has move on to other platform and not interested with HK movie productions anymore. Its gonna take them at least 2 generations to rebuild. HolyValkyrie and thxxht liked this post

QUOTE(Namelessone1973 @ Nov 7 2022, 01:17 PM) Warriors of Future has grossed a total of US$110 million worldwide combining its box office gross from Hong Kong (US$9.9 million),[18] and China (US$100.59 million). Its box office run just CNY700million only... I think it did not do too badly in China but the movie was too costly to make and needed total box office of US$150 million to break even. I think by selling to Netflix, Louis Koo might have break even from his investment. A Chinese romantic comedy movie over CNY run would have make more than this... no wonder Louis Koo like so kesian beg ppl go support this movie in various variety show and social media channel. Its not easy for him as not many ppl willing to invest in HK movie production these days. |
