China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 494 Word of mouth breaks out

The 2019 Spring Festival is considered the fourth Spring Festival stall that DreamWorks has participated in. In the previous three years, DreamWorks has been the most dazzling star and protagonist in the Spring Festival stalls.

In 2016, "Mekong" suddenly emerged as a dark horse, directly overshadowing the popularity of Xingye's "Mermaid" at the time, and its box office performance was also better than it.

In 2017, there were "Tang Detective II" and "The Return of the Great Sage". At that time, DreamWorks was the main producer of "Tang Detective II", and it was also the first time to launch a 3D animated film during the Spring Festival. Comedy animations also blossomed.

Both broke records and ushered in the first year of animation, which directly heated up the entire animation industry with an astonishing box office of 1.5 billion.

This year, 2018, this double-fisted combination of real-life and animation was reproduced. "Red Sea" and "Panda" directly covered all age groups and all groups of people, harvesting the biggest cake during the Spring Festival.

During this year’s Spring Festival, DreamWorks is somewhat on the wane. Of course, in addition to the pressure from other major companies in the industry, DreamWorks itself does not have any ready-made heavyweight works that can catch up with the Spring Festival. “The Wandering Earth” is still in post-production, and “The Matrix” is still in post-production.

"Ⅲ" and "Sky Eagle Warrior" are still being filmed.

Of course, this "quiescence" is the public opinion's outlook and evaluation of DreamWorks' Spring Festival stalls this year before the Spring Festival.

There is only one animated film participating in the war. In the eyes of most people, it basically means standing aside and consciously giving up the center of the stage.

Compared with "The Return of the Monkey King" and "Kung Fu Panda", "WALL-E" is completely a "three-no product" and cannot give people a sense of oppression.

This is natural. Although "The Great Sage" and "Panda" have both received more than one billion in box office results that were unimaginable for animated films before, domestic filmmakers are not idiots and do not think that China has suddenly become a country.

Everyone loves animation.

Most media have also analyzed the reasons for the success of these two movies. Naturally, they are inseparable from the two elements of Journey to the West IP and the national treasure panda.

[I can watch this movie countless times, it is simply the cutest movie I have ever seen.]

Originally, "Wall-E" only had 40,000 scheduled filming dates, accounting for 7.7% of the total, ranking sixth, below "Dinosaur Adventures."

[One thing to say, to be honest, the first half of the movie is simply perfect. When humans appear, it is a little inferior. But overall, it still deserves five stars. From my point of view, it is indeed better than "Panda" and "The Great Sage", and better than "The Great Sage".

Your name should also be stronger]

And it’s an amazing word-of-mouth explosion.

From "Tang Detective III" to "Parallel Mission" to "The New King of Comedy" and "The Fake Life", they have received mixed reviews, with some being bad and some being good.

["Wall-E" is DreamWorks' highest achievement!]

Capital is sensitive to the market, and there are a lot of people flocking to the Westward Journey. The reason why the theme of "Fengshen" is crowded is naturally because this kind of theme has a lucrative future, is easy to market, and is easy to attract audiences.

[One of the best movies ever! That’s right, I didn’t add animation. This is a science fiction movie and a love movie suitable for all ages. Don’t think that it is an animated movie. If you haven’t seen it, it is

Your loss is not Wall-E’s loss]

Therefore, even after several months of cute marketing, "WALL-E" is still overshadowed by "Dinosaur Adventures" in the eyes of public opinion and theaters.

The entire Spring Festival period should be a pattern of four live-action blockbusters singing the big show, and three animated movies dancing on the side.

In particular, "Tang Detective III", "The New King of Comedy" and "Parallel Mission" were not as good as expected, and the media and netizens began to trample on public opinion.

On the contrary, some people are really disappointing. Yes, I am talking about Chen Sicheng and Chen Gou. Damn, "Tang Detective III" embarrassed me from the beginning, and the reasoning is getting more and more retarded. Anyway, Tang Dynasty

Tan's reputation is getting bigger and bigger, is he really starting to show off?

In addition to Chen Sicheng, there are also Uncle Long and Master Xing.

Therefore, most of the animated films that have been launched by major studios and animation companies in the past two years are centered around Journey to the West, Fengshen, White Snake, and Agarwood. A small number of them are also trying to find animations with national popularity on the market.

IP to produce animated movies.

In the second year of junior high school, after "WALL-E" took the lead in being released on Douban, word-of-mouth also began to explode.

The competitor of "WALL-E" should be "Dinosaur Adventures" and "Young Thunderbolt".

This left many viewers who had made up their mind to wait for good word of mouth before deciding which tickets to buy.

I won’t say anything more about "Parallel Mission". Although there are too many loopholes, it is indeed quite innovative. What kind of bullshit is "The New King of Comedy"? I even want to complain about the "King of Comedy" 20 years ago. It is true.

If you are cutting star fans like leeks, when will you have to pay back the movie tickets?

If DreamWorks were replaced by these companies, "Kung Fu Panda II" or "The Return of the Monkey King II" should be released this year. People are really incomparable. I watched these movies yesterday and my stomach hurt.

, I almost want to dream about it now!]

Crowding is a popular activity among the people, and the extremely high word-of-mouth spread of "WALL-E" and the praise similar to that of last year's "Inception" have also attracted other viewers who had not chosen to watch this movie because they were not interested in animated movies.

Great curiosity arose.

Obviously, the audience's feedback and praise are significantly better than last year's "Kung Fu Panda" and the year before that "The Return of the Monkey King."

[My thoughts on "WALL-E": Have you watched "Kung Fu Panda"? It's ten times better than "Kung Fu Panda"!!]

But soon everyone discovered that a certain movie that the media regarded as a "supporting role" began to compete for the "lead role".

Driven by this kind of public opinion, the pre-sales and film schedule of "WALL-E" in the third year of junior high school began to rise rapidly.

As companies pay more and more attention to online marketing, the first wave of movie viewing feedback during the Spring Festival has become increasingly unclear. Reviews of movies released on the first day of the new year are divided between praise and criticism, and some movies even

Polarization.

It’s not that DreamWorks left the sequels of “Monkey King” and “Panda” unproduced, and somehow launching an original non-IP animated film will inevitably suffer a failure at the box office, but that “Wall-E” is definitely not the Spring Festival.

The protagonist of the file.

[My wife and I watched it with our kids, and it shocked our whole family. DreamWorks is so awesome. Last year's "Inception" and this year's "WALL-E" started again. The works are getting more and more incredible.

[To be honest, I have never been very interested in animation. I thought "Kung Fu Panda", which was so popular last year, was just like that, a bit childish. But after "WALL-E", I will be clueless about DreamWorks' future animated films.

Let’s subdue the other two animated movies first. The real highlight of the Spring Festival is naturally “Tang Detective III” and the new movie of Xing Ye and Uncle Long, as well as “Enter the Dragon” with Shen Teng joining the cast, but the martial arts movie “

"The Unknown Swordsman" is not very promising.

And this sudden burst of reputation has made "WALL-E" directly become the most dazzling star in the Spring Festival spotlight. Especially as the true reputation of several other movies began to be exposed, "WALL-E" set off an even greater stature.

.

[I can give 120 points for the first 40 minutes of the movie! On a hundred-point scale! I can give 85 points for the last 50 minutes, totaling 100 points!]

[Go to the theater and watch it quickly! Watching this one is enough, the other Spring Festival movies combined are not as good as Wall-E’s Toes!!]

[This is the best movie in theaters right now, possibly the best animated movie ever, and believe it or not, WALL-E may also be the cutest movie screen character ever!]

It's a bit like "Inception" released on National Day last year.

This is why everyone feels that DreamWorks will step aside during the Spring Festival this year.

Chen Jingxing himself admits this view, which is why he used these two animated films to break the ice and cultivate the parent-child viewing market and animation viewing habits.

In addition, there are three animated films in the Spring Festival this time. Even if we take a step back, the quality of DreamWorks animation is superior and can stand out, but the other two animated films will definitely separate the animation viewing market.

Less cake.

The focus of the media and netizens is simply whether "Tang Detective III" can surpass the previous one and enter the 3 billion club, or even higher.

Of course, the most dazzling star is of course "Tang Detective III". It combines original reasoning with comedy and makes a fuss in Tokyo. There are also many Japanese stars who are familiar to domestic audiences. Even those who were slightly disappointed with the previous "Tang Detective II"

It also whetted my appetite.

To be honest, I used to be a little disgusted by the way some fans of the scene and Meng Chui behaved day in and day out, but now I understand that they do have the capital, even though they are making more and more money and their status is getting higher and higher.

It's getting higher and higher, but I'm not arrogant and full of sincerity.

Only "Wall-E" suddenly emerged and began to spread rapidly on social platforms with almost zero negative reviews.

[I can only say that DreamWorks is awesome and Chen Jingxing is awesome!]

The box office for the first grade of junior high school was 67 million, and the second grade of junior high school was 86 million.

With the rapid growth of pre-sales, by the third day of the new year, the number of screenings of "Wall-E" has almost doubled to 76,000, and the screenings have also risen to fourth place, second only to "Tang Detective III".

"Parallel Mission" and "Fake Life" surpassed "The New King of Comedy".

The box office of Junior Three even surpassed "The Fake Life", which had a higher schedule, reaching 166 million. It staged a doubling box office curve and soared into the sky.

It is vaguely reminiscent of the epic box office counterattack of "Mekong" three years ago, which also made the media and the public excited again.
