I hear the performances of Gong Li and company are very good. Hope the Wensteins don't blow this one.

Those movies have the same potential audience. I would guess that Final Destination has the edge so far based on the marketing I've seen in trailers, commercials, etc. Possibly, a disappointing box office return for both franchises given the head to head match-up?

If the campaigning is so expensive why doesn't TWC release Shanghai without plans for a major awards season blitz? They obviously feel they (again) have better chances with other films. why would this change in 2010 when they would again probably have a star-headlined film more likely an awards candidate than Shanghai.
