I'm just gonna also post this as a general reply here as someone who really follows box office numbers and predictions.

Financially this movie will likely be a bomb. It needed at least 500mil, likely a bit more depending how hard they went in on the advertising budget.

No release in China means that it won't get the oversea boost a lot of movies often get in China.

Now, if you factor in toy sales as well as future dvd sales the numbers start to look better for Sony.

Ghostbusters will absolutely get it's sequel from the numbers it is pulling now. Especially if the rumors of them rolling a decade of false start sequels into this budget are true.

So, you can absolutely call this movie a financial bomb from a boxoffice perspective, but it has done plenty well enough it's not going to hurt it's future. The only difference might be Feig or whoever the next direct is might not get a blockbuster budget to work with for it.

Also I'm not the anon clinging to the 500mil number in the rest of the thread minus the one post similar content to this one. Just someone who spends way too much time playing fantasy boxoffice.
