I really didn’t expect that “The Annual Party Can’t Stop” would hit this week’s new movies so badly.
A total of 11 new films premiered this weekend, and they also grabbed a lot of filming slots for "The Annual Meeting Can't Stop". However, the excellent quality allowed Dapeng to gain firm support from the audience this time. With its super high attendance rate, "The Annual Meeting Can't Stop" "Can't Stop" won the Japanese crown without any suspense.
exceeded 725 million, and Dapeng defeated Bao Beier to win the box office championship for 13 consecutive days.
As of 23:00 on January 13, the top three single-day box office hits in the Mainland are "Can't Stop the Annual Meeting", "Goldfinger" and "What's in the Zoo".
"The Annual Party Can't Stop" has a single-day box office of over 61.36 million, accounting for 23% of the scheduled films and 42.4% of the box office. One movie accounts for nearly half of the market's box office share! "The Annual Party Can't Stop" has shown its super dominance. Currently, the movie has won the championship for 13 consecutive days in the 16 days it has been released. The cumulative box office has exceeded 725 million. It is predicted that the final box office of the movie will be around 1.2 billion.
The single-day box office of "Goldfinger" was 18.11 million, which is far behind "The Annual Meeting Cannot Stop".
's movie schedule accounted for only 11.5%, but its box office accounted for more than 12.5%, and the attendance rate was good. It can be seen that this time Andy Lau and Tony Leung have indeed attracted movie fans to pay attention to Hong Kong movies again. The cumulative box office of the movie has exceeded 390 million in the 15 days since its release. It is predicted that its final box office is expected to exceed 600 million. Coupled with the excellent performance of the Hong Kong market, the cost of "Goldfinger" of 350 million is likely to be a gimmick. There should be no problem with returning the
movie.
"What's in the Zoo" is completely cool.
The movie premiered on January 12. The box office on the first day was only 9.81 million. However, the movie was released at 18:00 that day. You can also use the short time as an excuse. The day after the release on January 13, the proportion of "What's in the Zoo" in the schedule was already as high as 21%, which is similar to "The Annual Party Can't Stop". The movie's single-day box office was only 15.5 million, accounting for only 10.7% of the box office.
There is a rare inversion in the box office ratio of film schedules, and the attendance rate is the lowest among new films in the same period!
The current cumulative box office of the movie in the two days after its release is only a little over 25 million, and its final box office is predicted to be around 60 million. Such dismal box office results may be the audience's response to Bao Beier's continuous remakes of Japanese and Korean movies in recent years.
"Big Shot", the 2019 remake of "The Veteran".
"My Girlfriend is a Robot" by "My Robot Girlfriend" in 2020.
brought a "Northeast Love Brother" in 2021, which is actually a remake of "When a Man Falls in Love". In the same year,
also directed "Sunshine Sisters", which was also a remake of the Korean masterpiece of the same name.
's "What's in the Zoo" is actually shot in 2021, which means that the three movies shot by Bao Beier in 2021 are all remakes, and they all have failed reputations. Basically, the essence of the original version has been deleted, so just use Due to its popularity and setting, many comedy stars were invited to guest star, and it was all made into a farce full of Internet jokes!
has been hiding for five years, and the box office on the first day of release was zero. The worst new film of 2024 was born
This week's "What's in the Zoo" with the strongest star lineup crashed at the box office, and the remaining new films are even more miserable.
Xuecun directed and starred in "Extreme Aid", starring Huang Shengyi, Wang Qianyuan, Wei Chen and other stars. The daily box office was only 410 yuan, and the cumulative box office in the two days after its release was only 54,000 yuan.
The single-day box office of "Heavy Rain", the new work of "The Great Protector" director Bu Sifan, dropped to 522,000, and the cumulative box office in the two days after its release was 6.59 million.
There are also new films such as "Your Promise" and "Night Is Coming" that are at the bottom of the box office on a daily basis. There is even "The Overlapping of Love" with a box office of 704 yuan on the first day on January 12. By January 13, the box office No more screenings are scheduled, "The Overlap of Love" has completed the achievement of a one-day trip to the cinema.
But the worst new film of 2024 so far is undoubtedly "Heroes of Xingyi". The
movie premiered on January 12th. On the box office website, there was only one scheduled screening, but no one bought a ticket. The box office on the first day of release was zero! Movies like
are naturally abandoned by movie theaters. On January 13th, "Heroes of Xingyi" didn't even have a screening. It means that the movie was released with zero box office. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the box office is too small and it cannot be counted, but it also shows how dismal the movie is.
Logically speaking, even if the general audience does not go to see it, the main creators of the movie will support it, and the box office will not be zero.
What’s interesting is that the filming of "Heroes of Xingyi" actually started in 2019, and was completed that year. It means that the film was hidden for five years after the filming was completed, and there has been no news. On the social platform of the film's male protagonist Xiao Cong, we can I saw the launch photos of the crew in 2019, but Xiao Cong did not promote the movie when it was released, and even his own male lead gave up.
It makes sense that no one bought "Heroes of Xingyi".
According to the plot synopsis released by the film studio, "Xingyi Hero" is a kung fu film that tells the story of a descendant of Xingyi Quan who protects the people and confronts the Japanese in Tianjin in the early years of the Republic of China.
The movie has no big stars, and it was released with zero publicity. Coupled with the strength of Dapeng's "The Annual Party Can't Stop", it was hit with zero box office, which really made people laugh out loud.
