There is only one day left before the 2024 Spring Festival. So far, the pre-sale box office of eight new films has exceeded 400 million.
Among them, " speeding life 2" and " hot " both exceeded 100 million, continuing to lead the way.
But "Flying Life 2" is slightly better. However, at the box office on New Year's Day, "Hot and Spicy" was slightly ahead.
Then there is "Article 20" with a box office of about 86 million. It can be seen that it has already fallen behind.
On the contrary, "Bear Infested: Reverse Time and Space" is amazing, with a box office of over 70 million, narrowing the gap with leading films.
"Let's Shake the Sun Together" and "Mr. Red Carpet" have sluggish growth, and "Bajie: The Lower World of the Canopy" and "Huang Pi: The God of Wealth Cat from the Sky" have been completely reduced to cannon fodder.
"Flying Life 2", this is the third film collaboration between Han Han and Shen Teng. From the starring role in " Fast Life " to the guest appearance in "Flying Life", they have continuously competed in the Spring Festival, but the effects are very different. . Of course, the reason for "Four Seas" does not lie with Shen Teng, Han Han still has to bear the main responsibility. After five years, Han Han returned to racing-themed films and filmed the sequel to "Flying Life". With the return of the original cast and all-round upgrades in production, from a visual effects perspective alone, this is the most enjoyable film to watch on the big screen during this Spring Festival.
Of course, for a movie, the visual effects are only secondary, the story and characters are more important.
has a popular IP and a comedy team. "Flying Life 2" will definitely be better than "Flying Life", and it may not be a problem to exceed the box office of "Flying Life".
With the release of the new trailer of "Hot and Spicy", the silhouette of Jia Ling at the end of the film attracted attention and was hotly debated.
Judging from the various trailers, the comedy flavor is not strong. Although compared with the original film "One Hundred Dollar Love", "Hot and Spicy" is almost an intact copy, but in different environmental contexts, Jia How Ling should grasp the core of the story and make it look localized is the key.
In fact, the original film is not a comedy, it is about life, life, and of course growth.
But for "Hot and Spicy", the topic that attracts the most attention is Jia Ling's weight loss, and this is her own topic, and it continues to be amplified through this film. Although Jia Ling posted early that this is not a movie about weight loss, but a movie about "how kind people find themselves and learn to love themselves."
But unfortunately, whether it is public opinions or trailers, these contents are difficult to display and express, and the public can't help but focus on Jia Ling's figure.
What does Jia Ling look like after losing 100 pounds?
Now the silhouette at the end of the new trailer has once again raised the audience's expectations and aroused curiosity. But for a movie, just seeing these is obviously not enough. In addition, it is a remake and adaptation. The audience will naturally compare "Hot" with "100 Yuan Love", and compare Jia Ling and Sakura Ando. . But Jia Ling is not Sakura Ando. Whether it is the environment or the way of performance, the two are completely different.
If Jia Ling acted in Sakura Ando's way and retained the narrative style of the original film, it would be difficult for "Hot and Spicy" to shine.
For her second self-directed and self-acted film, Jia Ling chose the remake route, which is both safe and challenging. Especially now that remakes of films continue to hit the market, the pressure Jia Ling faces is even greater.
Although Jia Ling said that she tried her best to make this movie, her efforts here were only about losing weight, which is far from enough for the expression of a movie. But obviously she still wants to gain recognition from the audience through this matter. The final result of
will be revealed on the first day of the new year.
Shen Teng, Jia Ling, Ma Li...
It can be said that in this Spring Festival period, every film has its own comedic focus. Zhang Yimou once again made a comedy film after "Man Jiang Hong" and broke into the Spring Festival period again. Fierce, but the future is still uncertain. The box office success of "Man Jiang Hong" is somewhat due to luck, just like Jia Ling's "Hello, Li Huanying".It’s not that the film is very good, but that it just captured the audience’s emotions, resonated with the group at that moment, and ultimately led to explosive box office growth.
However, luck does not last forever.
Zhang Yimou, another all-star cast, another comedy technique, although it is aimed at justice, after "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit", it once again explores the issues of ethics and legal principles under the times. Can it be successful this time? Whether it will be a box office hit or not is still unknown.
"Bear Bears" has an eye-catching box office performance. It lagged behind at the beginning and then struggled to catch up. Now it can be said that it is not inferior to "Article 20", and it is far ahead in terms of single-day box office growth. No matter how the outside world changes, "Bear Infested" is the most stable. Although it was quiet on the marketing front, it performed amazingly at the box office.
This is the confidence and strength of high-quality IP.
Once the reputation of the top movies collapses, "Bear Bears" will buck the trend and break through to the forefront.
"Let's Shake the Sun Together" and "Mr. Red Carpet" have sluggish growth, and the follow-up can only be based on word-of-mouth fermentation.
There is only one day left, and the Spring Festival war is about to begin. There are eight new films, no more, no less. They may lack big-budget and large-scale films, but they are diverse and complete. Who will stand out from the crowd and who will have the last laugh, so stay tuned!
