#**Release Schedule:**
A table including upcoming movies in the next month alongside trailers linked in the name of the movie, Want To See data from both Maoyan and Taopiaopiao alongside the Gender split and genre.
Remember Want To See is not pre-sales. Its just an anticipation metric. A checkbox of sorts saying your interested in an upcoming movie.
Not all movies are included since a lot are just too small to be worth covering.
– 14.03 Added The Boy and The Heron.
– 15.03 Godzilla x Kong got a new exclusive [trailer](https://vod.pipi.cn/fec9203cvodtransbj1251246104/9130566a1397757887114187001/v.f42905.mp4) today which boosted its anticipation number.
