Shen Teng and Ma Li star in the movie " Catch the Baby ", which will be screened starting from July 13, 2024. The film scheduling rate on that day is as high as 29.7%, which is the highest among all movies. How can this be called "clicking"? "release", this is "advance release". Of course, the producers of "Catch Me" didn't put a gun to the heads of theater managers and force them to schedule movies. This is really because the quality of "Catch Me" is so good.
Non-famous entertainment critic Wu Qinggong pointed out: "Catch a Baby" was officially released on July 16, with a film scheduling rate as high as 40.2%. It seems that there is a difference between "scheduled screening" and "official release". From July 13th to July 27th, "Catch a Baby" was the "Daily Box Office Champion" for 15 consecutive days. Many movies failed miserably at the box office. Let's take a look at which movies are there? The first is the three movies released earlier than "Catch a Baby". Because of the screening of "Catch a Baby", they lost tens of millions in box office.
" legend " will be released on July 10, " Fallen to Earth " and " Despicable Me 4" will be released on July 12. "Down to Earth" is a domestic cartoon, and "Despicable Me 4" is a Hollywood cartoon. It stands to reason that such movies will be very popular with audiences during the summer, but the former only has a box office of 33 million, and the latter only has a box office of 276 million. The most unfortunate thing about "Legend" is that it starred Jackie Chan, Zhang Yixing, Guli Nazha, etc., and included both veteran action stars and new generation traffic stars. However, it was defeated by "Catch Me", and the box office has so far been less than 80 million.
Let’s take a look at “Your Name”, “ Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf: The Guardian ” and “ Tornado ” released on July 19th. "Your Name" is a classic Japanese cartoon that is a "re-release"; "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf: Guardian" is a domestic cartoon that has accompanied many people's childhood. But the former only had a box office of 116 million, and the latter only had a box office of 55 million. "Twister" is a Hollywood special effects blockbuster that set the record for the highest opening weekend box office for a disaster film in North American film history. But in China, "Tornado" was left behind by Shen Teng and Ma Liqian, with a box office of less than 20 million.
Let's take a look at " Under the Inhumans", " Deadpool and Wolverine " and "Blue Zone: Nagi" released on July 26. "Blue Zone: Nagi" is a Japanese animation, and "Deadpool and Wolverine" is a Hollywood superhero movie. Both types of movies have previously had high box office sales in China, but this time, the former only had a box office of 23 million, and the latter only had a box office of 120 million. "Under the Stranger" is a youthful, passionate, action-comic movie directed by Wu Ershan, with a box office of just over 70 million.
The reason why "Catch Me" can make so many excellent movies fail at the box office is because this movie is suitable for all ages and is a competitor of all movies.
