WARCRAFT Nets $20 Million in China Pre-Sales

Movie WarcraftChina by Mick Joest

Duncan Jones' upcoming blockbuster Warcraft is set to do very well in China with pre-sale numbers currently at $20 million, according to Variety. That makes it the third highest pre-sale total in front of Furious 7 and Avengers: Age of Ultron.

This is a far cry from the estimated $25 million weekend the film is expected to have in the United States, but that's just speculation. From my perspective it sounds like Pacific Rim all over again! That's a double-edged sword, as China is what made Pacific Rim 2 a possibility to begin with, but American sales are what kept producers from instantly green-lighting it.

I guess let's just hope that whatever is meant to happen happens! Joey loved this film, so I'm sure I'll be a fan.
