Good Trip keeps Hong Kong lead with an FDI of 18.0

We Are Born Good climbed from fourteenth to second after opening on October 29.

  • Good Trip has an FDI of 18.0 and remains Hong Kong's demand leader.
  • We Are Born Good rose 14.8 points in a week to become Hong Kong's fastest climber.
  • Godzilla Minus Zero has Unlock advance tickets before opening.

Good Trip remains the film Hong Kong most wants to see, holding first place with an FDI of 18.0 ahead of We Are Born Good at 16.1. The SEATmio Film Demand Index (FDI) is a film's percentage share of all tickets SEATmio tracks in the market, including the last 7 days of screenings and advance tickets for upcoming screenings. Good Trip fell 8.8 points over the week, but still drew Unlock tickets in the last 7 days. All ticket counts are rounded SEATmio estimates.

The local family comedy comes from Norris Wong Yee-lam and Wong Hoi, whose earlier work includes The Lyricist Wannabe and My Prince Edward. Nick Cheung Ka-fai, Chung Suet-ying and Yoyo Mung Ka-wai star in the story of an art assistant who leaves a hospital with her cancer-stricken father for an unexpected journey through Macau and Okinawa. Its cushion now depends on holding momentum as its advance tickets stand at Unlock.

The pressure is coming from another Hong Kong film. We Are Born Good climbed from fourteenth to second, rose 14.8 points in a week and overtook 泥面人, Bird of Paradise and Clayface among others. Yeung Leung Chuen's drama, from the director of The Bridge, opened on October 29 and has Unlock tickets from the last 7 days plus Unlock advance tickets.

That local one-two also defined last weekend, when Good Trip led the October 30 to November 1 frame with Unlock tickets despite falling 19% from the previous weekend. We Are Born Good opened in second with Unlock tickets. Behind them, 泥面人 fell 28% to Unlock tickets, while local family drama Bird of Paradise dropped 45% to Unlock tickets and now has an FDI of 4.4.

The biggest global title in the race is still well out on the calendar. Avengers: Doomsday, from Joe Russo and Anthony Russo, the directors of Avengers: Endgame and Avengers: Infinity War, sits in third place with an FDI of 7.0 on advance demand for its December 16 release. The science-fiction action adventure has Unlock advance tickets, putting it ahead of every film below the top two.

The nearer threat is Godzilla Minus Zero, which opens November 5 with an FDI of 3.5 and Unlock advance tickets. Takashi Yamazaki's science-fiction horror action film, from the director of Godzilla Minus One, follows Japan facing a new threat after reclaiming a fragile peace. Also opening November 5, LA BOLA NEGRA has an FDI of 1.5 and Unlock advance tickets, while Stray Kids World Tour 'RUN IT' LIVE VIEWING has Unlock advance tickets before its November 7 date.
