Sheriff Hudi and Buzz Lightyear’s joint shoes, Mulan lipstick and eyeshadow palette, Star Wars razor, Avengers figures and all kinds of daily necessities, National Geographic’s outdoor down jacket...
here is Disney 2020 launch At the entrance of the conference, the seven brand exhibition areas of Disney, Marvel, Pixar, Star Wars, 20th Century Fox, ESPN, and National Geographic were lined up in sequence. Various products were dazzlingly displayed, showing a "Disney-style pomp".
"Kick-off Meeting" is an important annual event of The Walt Disney Company in China to share the progress of new projects of Disney companies in the coming year. This year the conference attracted nearly 3,000 industry spectators, and it lasted for two hours just in line for admission.
is the first conference held by Disney this year after it acquired Fox, one of the original six Hollywood companies, so the film list is extremely rich and worthy of attention. The entertainment studio saw the unexposed feature films of the latest blockbuster movies such as "Mulan", "Black Widow", "Frozen 2", "1/2 Magic", as well as various trailers, highlights and introductions. , The amount of information exploded, and the brain was almost hypoxic. Mobile phones were banned at the
event. We tried to use words to review the exciting content of this conference and see how Disney in 2020 will continue to dominate the global movie market.
[Hollywood and the half sky of the global movie market]
Today's Disney can be called the "half the sky" of Hollywood and the global movie market. There are data to prove: among the top ten movies in
global movie history, eight belong to Disney; nearly half of the world's top 100 movies are from Disney;
Since 2016, Disney has become the global and mainland box office for two consecutive years Champion, and the first Hollywood film company to exceed RMB 5 billion at the box office in Mainland China for two consecutive years. After the acquisition of Flowserve, Disney’s box office is expected to account for 40% of the world’s total box office;
As of the end of July 2019, Disney’s global box office outside North America has exceeded $5 billion, making it the first Hollywood company to achieve this result; Constantly refreshing the "annual box office record of movies produced by a single company" created by him, this year will undoubtedly reach an amazing new figure.
This year, when Foss, who has won 78 Oscar nominations and has more than 2,000 stories, was included in the bag, Disney has even more confidence. At the end of the year, Disney will promote its own streaming media platform Disney+, and it seems that no one can stop this roaring carriage.
Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, Marvel, ESPN, 20th Century Fox, National Geographic, these brands are now part of The Walt Disney Company. It is no longer an animation factory for Mickey Mouse Donald Duck, and the target group covers all ages.
This year, what works of these factory standards are worth looking forward to?
[Disney: Chinese Princess "Mulan" debut]
this year's "Dumbo", "Aladdin" and "The Lion King" live-action version did not satisfy you? It doesn't matter, "Mulan" is coming.
Of course, it is an English film with a Hollywood perspective after all. I wonder if Chinese audiences will be satisfied with its adaptation. What will happen to the word of mouth will only be known after the release.
is the same as the original cartoon, this section of the movie is actually a comedy section (so the makeup is probably also for comic effect). Zheng Peipei's role as a suspected matchmaker sits opposite Mulan and other women, patiently teaching traditional female virtues. At this time, a spider climbed on the table in front of them, Mulan picked up the teapot to cover it, and was sternly reprimanded by Zheng Peipei and put it back in place. Mulan had to lift the teapot again, and the spider crawled out. The women panicked and fled in all directions. Mulan used her skills to catch the knocked teapots and cups one by one. The last one fell to the ground and broke.
The media was so popular that they left and complained that Mulan was not a good woman. Everyone followed her to the courtyard in the middle of the earth building. At this time, the conscription order came. Mulan's father threw away the crutches and limped forward to take the order. The soldier asked if there was no eldest son in the family who could take your place for you? The father said he had only two daughters, which made him very proud, and the soldier sighed.
's father practiced sword at home, his arms trembling constantly due to aging. Mulan saw in her eyes, her eyes were wet, and she practiced the sword secretly, preparing to join the army for her father.
"Mulan" has been finalized on March 27, 2020 in North America, awaiting official announcement from the Mainland.
Then we watched another one of "Frozen 2"The unreleased feature film clip is a sing of the white-haired Elsa expressing her inner monologue, which is very similar to the previous work "Let it go". I wonder if this new song can achieve the popularity and global popularity of the last time.
"Maleficent" will also launch a sequel, still starring Angelina Jolie and Ellie Fanning. The fragments exposed this time are about Marlene Fissen doing everything possible to prevent the princess from marrying the beloved prince, much like the familiar story of a stereotyped old mother VS a rebellious daughter.
Fans who follow the recent news may know that one of our favorite cartoons when we were young, "101 Faithful Dogs" (also translated "101 Dalmatians"), will also have a live-action version, which is "Kuira" with the villain as the protagonist. , Is positioned in the punk rock style of London in the 70s, starring Emma Stone, who is currently filming.
Let’s take a look at the makeup photo:
[Marvel: Chinese creative force]
Are you still sad for the death of Iron Man and Black Widow and the retirement of Captain America? Still waiting for the "Marvel: Infinite Legend" gift box set to be released, want to recall the classics infinitely?
In the past 11 years, Marvel has launched 23 superhero movies with a global box office of more than 20 billion, making it one of the cultural brands with the highest fan stickiness. But this only develops a corner of the Marvel comics gold mine, which has more than 8,000 heroes under its umbrella.
So look ahead, Marvel Phase 4 has already started. New heroes are about to debut, and more importantly, Chinese creators are worth looking forward to. The first thing
wants to say is a story that began in 1976-"The Eternal Race", which will land on the North American screen on November 6, 2020. Recently, there have been Reuters photos from the studio.
This film focuses on the super protoss in Marvel legends, discussing the civilization of the universe from a broader time and space dimension, which may subvert your understanding of the existing Marvel universe. Angelina Jolie, Kit Harrington, Richard Madden, Jamal Chen, Kumer Nanjiani, Lauren Lidlov, Salma Hayek, etc. A group of new stars join the Marvel family. What kind of new combination will this be? Compared to the Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy, how popular will it be?
The director of "Eternal Race" is Zhao Ting, a Chinese female director who developed in Hollywood. Although the cost of her predecessor "Knight" is not high, it has won numerous reputations in North America and is a young director with great potential.
"Shang Qi" is naturally also a new film that Chinese fans are very concerned about. It will be Marvel's first super-English film featuring Chinese heroes. Canadian Chinese and newcomer actor Liu Simu will play the Kung Fu master Shangqi, and Tony Leung will play the villain. It will be released in North America on February 12, 2020. The birth of the image of
is a reflection of the former kung fu craze in the United States, and now choosing to shoot this movie, it is likely to show Marvel's attention to the Chinese market. At the conference,
Entertainment Studio saw the single-player clip of "Black Widow" that will land on the North American theaters on May 1, 2020, and miss the widow sister and the beauty team (yes, beauty will appear again in this movie. (Team figure) fans who can't help themselves can look again.
The timeline of "Black Widow" is set after "Captain America 3", and it is about the "black history" of Black Widow. In the clip, the widow sister came to Budapest, broke into a family, and met the role of her sister who was suspected to be her sister. When the two met, there was a single-handed fight. But then the two reconciled, and the sisters are deeply in love.
Marvel has released the fourth-stage film list before. The movies and series are very rich. Except for the widow sister, Thor, Doctor Strange, and Black Panther movies will all return. Rocky, Hawkeye, Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Wanda And Vision will appear again in the episode.
Moreover, with Fox's integration into Disney, X-Men, Fantastic Four, Deadpool, etc. will join the Marvel battle in the future, which may no longer be a fantasy.
In addition, Marvel will restart the story of a vampire hunter-"Blade Warrior", which will be played by "Green Book" Oscar Best Actor Mahersala Ali.
Disney+ will also launch a brainstorming animation series called "What If..." (What If...?), specifically discussing the consequences of the key node in the Marvel Universe being reversed-this time, everyone You can become Doctor Strange, and maybe you can see the Nth branch of the parallel universe.
[Pixar: Two Pure Original Innovation Films]
in the sequel panToday, with excessive and scarce creativity, Pixar still insists on developing original animations. In the coming year, Pixar will release two new works: "Soul" (Soul, tentative translation) and "1/2 of the magic", entertainment studio also first saw the unreleased clips.
"Soul" is headed by Peter Dougert, director of "Flying House" and "Brain Agents". The form is a bit like "Brain Agents". It also transforms abstract things into vivid concrete figures. The style is very cute. , North America summer file reservation. The setting explained in the
clip is that everyone is given a soul before birth, so different personalities will be revealed after birth. The protagonist in the film is a man who seems to have been given the wrong soul. He decides to go to the mysterious realm to find out where his real soul is.
"The Magic of 1/2" is also a very imaginative story, dubbed by the little spider Tom Holland and Star Lord Chris Pratt. The brothers have always missed their father who has passed away. One day, the younger brother mastered the magic that can bring his loved ones back for a day, but something went wrong in the process of casting the spell. The father only showed the lower part of his body and was unable to communicate with others...
So, brother The two decided to take their father (legs and feet) to find the legendary magic gem... the story seemed strange and warm.
[Star Wars: 40 Years of IP Will End]
"Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker" is very close and will be released in North America 3 months later, and the mainland schedule has not yet been announced. As a veteran IP that has been filming for more than 40 years, Star Wars is still infinitely popular around the world, and "Star Wars 9" will be the film's finale.
However, such a hot IP will of course not stop there. A series of derivative dramas and animations will be launched on the Disney+ platform in the future, including the story of "The Mandalorian" and Jedi master Obi-Wan, young Anakin, etc. .
[Fox: "Avatar" and other blockbuster movies are ready to be released]
In March this year, Disney’s acquisition of 21st Century Fox officially took effect. Disney’s acquisition of business accounted for about two-thirds of the original Fox Group, including movies, TV, National Geographic, Media and other departments. The
film part includes 20th Century Fox Pictures, Searchlight and other well-known labels. The Blue Sky Studios, which have produced the "Ice Age" and "Rio Adventure" series, are also affiliated with Flowserve.
Over the past 84 years, Foss has produced "Avatar", "Titanic", "The Sound of Music", "Alien", "The Shape of Water" and many other works that fans talk about, and have won 78 Oscar nominations for Best Picture, 12 Awards. Disney's acquisition of Flowserve has since changed from six to five. We have witnessed history. After
is incorporated into Disney, Fox’s classic series will continue-the long-awaited "Avatar" will launch a total of four sequels at a rate of one every two years starting in 2021 (hope that no more pigeons will be released this time) . The gentlemanly demeanor of "Ace Agent" will also be passed on in the new sequel.
"Avatar 2" hasn't been released yet, and the entertainment studio first watched several other new Fox movie clips that were good visually.
The first film is a racing movie "Racing Car God" starring Matt Damon and Christian Bale. The English title of this movie is literally translated as "Ford vs. Ferrari", which is about the 60s. The story of the two boys who have the ambition to create the fastest car in the world is based on real people. In the clip, two male stars gag at each other, and Bell is driving fast.
also has a cartoon "Transfiguration Agent" dubbed by Will Smith and Tom Holland. In the clip, the little spider developed a stealth potion. Emperor Shi accidentally drank it and turned into a pigeon. The little spider felt that the pigeon was best for agents to hide. The animated image is very similar to Shi Huang himself. For the remaining two, National Geographic is a brand that integrates publications, social media, and online and offline exhibitions; ESPN is a live broadcast platform that focuses on sports, and it also has extreme sports brands. These two brands are weakly related to movies.
However, the documentary "Free Rock Climbing" produced by National Geographic successfully won this year's Oscar for Best Documentary Feature Film. It is still in theaters in China. Although the number of films has been low, the box office has exceeded 34 million. For documentaries It is also a good result.
In addition to the movie content itself,Disney's theme parks, derivatives... are also frantically harvesting the money of fans all over the world. In the near future, brand-new theme parks such as Zootopia, Avengers and Star Wars will land in parks in different cities one after another.
In the current global film industry, whether you agree with the trend of being a dominant one or not, the current status of Disney's king is difficult to shake. The lively 2020 Disney Universe will bring us more thinking.
