Star Wars Battlefront 2- Matt the Radar Technician- Morning Watch
THR reports Star Wars: The Last Jedi is "getting beaten badly" by the Chinese local comedy, The Ex-File 3, which opened in China a week ago.
Historically, the Star Wars saga has struggled somewhat in China, with Star Wars: The Force Awakens debuting to $2,5 million in midnight previews - a far cry from the record $8.7 million set by The Fate of the Furious.
The Fate of the Furious earned $8.7 million in preview screenings previous year and remains one of the top grossing foreign films of all time in China.
In the weeks since The Last Jedi dropped, there's been much debate over where the line lies in terms of critical and audience reaction, as well as how its box office stacks up against its predecessors.
In Lucasfilm's Star Wars: The Last Jedi, the Skywalker saga continues as the heroes of The Force Awakens join the galactic legends in an epic adventure that unlocks age-old mysteries of the Force and shocking revelations of the past.

SoundCloud Responds to Decreased Sound Quality Claims, Addresses Codec Confusion
Opus (the successor to.ogg) is a higher quality format than MP3 and at 64 kbps should actually sound better than a 128 kbps MP3. Though the numbers may seem like the streaming service has cut its audio quality right in half, it's not that simple.
The Last Jedi box office in China - the #2 largest movie audience in the world - is mirroring the USA box office as it's learned the movie is not doing all that well in the land of the setting sun.
Analysts track the country's halfhearted relationship with the property all the way back to the franchise's original trilogy.
Star Wars: The Last Jedi really didn't go the way we thought, proving to be the most controversial entry since Disney's resurrection of the series with a backlash perhaps even on a par with the highly divisive prequels.
In a odd twist of fate, The Ex-File franchise features titles derived from the original Star Wars trilogy, with The Ex-File's first sequel dubbed The Backup Strikes Back, and the latest entry spoofing 1983's The Return of the Jedi.
