THE LAST JEDI suffered a dismal opening of only $27 million in China when it debuted last weekend. After only a week, exhibitors are already calling it quits. According to a new report by Forbes, the filmwill be losing almost 92% of its showtimes in China, going down from 34% of the territory's total screenings to under 3%. Going on to make only $7 million through the week for a total of $34 million, the lack of enthusiasm China has for THE LAST JEDI mirrors the disappointing numbers for previous movies in the franchise. THE FORCE AWAKENS finished at a less-than-expected $124 million (after a $52 million opening), while ROGUE ONE ($31 million opening) made about half as much with $69 million – despite both getting massive advertising pushes.
