More Than 500 Cinemas in China Reopen as Coronavirus Threat Recedes

, where the coronavirus outbreak is seen to be receding, though box office takings remain minimal as the public is mostly staying away.

Data from private-sector ticketing firm Maoyan showed that venues had opened in five provinces: far-flung Xinjiang; Shangdong, a coastal province that lies between Beijing and Shanghai; southern, landlocked province Sichuan; and two populous coastal regions, Fujian and Guangdong, which border Hong Kong.

Most of the films currently available are re-runs of recent and popular Chinese movies, a move that is intended to minimize risk. According to Maoyan, 2019 Chinese crime thriller “Sheep Without A Shepherd” led the box office chart on Monday, ahead of new release iQIYI-backed animation “Spycies.” A small number of other titles are expected to release in the next two weeks, including “Into The Rainbow,” a China-New Zealand co-production from 2017 which was originally scheduled to release in China in mid-January.

Close that shit down! There are still thousands of people dying because of the virus that started there

wtf

Keep eating those bats A-holes.

If this is real and safe, and not hurried, awesome.

What movies they showing?

DanielRPK Nothing like China pretending like things are getting better, all the while they hide the truth and tell the world they can be relied on. And the dumbest President believes their every word until it's too late.

DanielRPK Can feel the 2nd wave comin.

At the end of his statement, reporters found it odd he ended his statement with, “and furthermore, China is definitely NOT lying about the virus, the 500 theaters were in fact open, but empty, not from the virus, they just hate sub-titles as much as we do

Pure world ki ga*nd marke ab ye log movie dekhenge!!

DanielRPK Shit wouldn’t be there regardless

🤸🏽‍♂️🤸🏽‍♂️🤸🏽‍♂️🤸🏽‍♂️🤸🏽‍♂️

Another wave has hit Hong Kong. Plus are the Chinese government fudging the numbers

BO from those screens has been tiny as it's going to take a long time till the public feel safe going back to the cinema; if international exhibitors think cinemas can reopen in 3 months in time for summer bonanza it's not going to happen

“though box office takings remain minimal as the public is mostly staying away.” Yeah, seems way too early.

COVID-19 thanks them for their optimism.

So they're not concerned with another wave of outbreaks? People flocking in droves to the theaters at one time?

And then ppl gathering and boom get infected again

So, I guess Hollywood back in business?
