HK box office results so far of Dragon Tiger Gate

[W Hong]

It looks like that "HK Entertainment News in Review" website has still not been updated just because the guy in charge is still in the hospital. So since I can't use that website for now, can any of you tell me what were the opening weekend box office results for Donnie's "Dragon Tiger Gate" in H.K. theatres? Do you know if it was the #1 movie in H.K. on that weekend?

Do you also have any updates on the health of the person in charge of "HK Entertainment News in Review?"

"Dragon Tiger Gate", the new martial arts extravaganza from director Wilson Yip and star Donnie Yen has been kicking ass at the box office, earning more than 30 million yuan across Asia since its simultaneous release on July 28th. In just three days the comic book adaptation amassed 5 million yuan in Hong Kong and 12 million yuan on the Chinese mainland. This success comes despite some lukewarm reviews from critics who complained that the film had an overly simplistic plot. Unsurprisingly, there is already talk of a sequel being planned.

I know that it's been about four weeks since its opening date in H.K., but did "Dragon Tiger Gate" turn out to be a box office hit there? And do you know what is its box office total in H.K., and if it's still showing there?

the makers are actually planning a sequel, thanks to the box-office income.
