US Movie In China Money Making Shock
In a country in which every movie can be watched essentially for free it may seem making money from movies is impossible. It's not. As this report about Transformers opening weekend from the LA Times proves.
It was the No. 1 movie in all 58 countries where it opened, with particularly impressive ticket sales in Russia, Australia, South Korea and China, where it opened to $21.9 million, the biggest-ever debut for an English-language movie.
