I really didn’t expect that a Japanese anime would capture nearly half of the Chinese mainland’s movie market.

"Dogs" only made 9 million at the box office on its first day. Jia Bing's new film is disappointing. The box office data below

are as of 22:00 on June 15th.

The box office of "Volleyball Boys Junkyard Showdown" exceeded 49.9 million on the first day, accounting for 30.8% of the scheduled films and over 42.9% of the box office. The attendance rate is also far higher than that of new films in the same period, and all box office data are far ahead. However, this kind of Japanese animation is no different from popular star movies. The box office is completely supported by fans. It is predicted that the movie box office will plummet after the first weekend, and the final box office will be around 200 million.

The film with the highest cost this week and the strongest star cast is undoubtedly "Dogs".

Directed by Guan Hu, Peng Yuyan in the lead, with nearly 30 celebrity guest appearances, such a lineup would be a super blockbuster in any period. Unfortunately, the box office of the movie on the first day of release was 9 million, accounting for 15.7% of the scheduled films, 7.6% of the box office, and attendance rate It is at the bottom, and the final box office is predicted to be around 40 million.

" Stealth " " Once Upon a Time in the Tropics " " Emergency Rescue " " The First Incense " " Evil Cannot Suppress Righteousness " With this "Dogs", Peng Yuyan has made six consecutive box office hits. Neither the acting nor the lines are recognized by the market. The internet popularity is extremely high, but it cannot be translated into box office appeal.

Jia Bing's "Dad Is an Alien" was originally a low-cost production.

However, Jia Bing's " Thelma and Louise " won the May Day Festival championship, and " I Don't Want to Be Friends with You " won the Dragon Boat Festival championship, making theaters overestimate "Dad Is an Alien" The box office prospects of "People", the first day box office of the movie was only 1.95 million, and it is predicted that the final box office may not break through the 10 million mark.

A movie considered bad by Chinese audiences, but regarded as a treasure by North American audiences, with a box office of over 1.2 billion and winning the global championship!

But the worst new movie this week is undoubtedly "Mysterious Friends"!

This Hollywood blockbuster cost 110 million US dollars or 800 million yuan to produce, and it has performed well in overseas markets.

's global box office exceeded 165 million US dollars, which is 1.2 billion yuan, and won the global weekend championship. Especially the local North American audience regarded it as a treasure. The North American box office alone took in nearly 100 million US dollars, and once won the North American summer championship.

movie has a good reputation in North America.

's Rotten Tomatoes index is as high as 87%, and the theater audience score has reached an A-level, which makes the film studio full of confidence in the Chinese mainland market.

But the Chinese audience gave this Hollywood blockbuster a hard lesson. The box office of

movie on the first day of its release in mainland China was only 1.14 million, accounting for 6.2% of the scheduled films, but only 0.9% of the box office. It was the last new film this week in terms of attendance. This kind of performance is not to mention that the theater chain does not schedule screenings. It’s completely because Chinese audiences don’t buy it.

According to the current trend, the final box office of the movie in mainland China may not exceed 5 million, which will set the worst box office record for a Hollywood blockbuster in the mainland in 2024.

The North American champion film was deemed a flop by Chinese audiences on the first day it was released. Why?

"Mysterious Friends" is a contradictory movie for Chinese audiences. The plot of

tells the story of a young girl, Bi, who unexpectedly meets a mysterious man named Calvin. The male protagonist runs a dating agency, where there are all kinds of good friends who only exist in imagination. Each one is unique, and all of them can act cute and mean.

But the heroine discovered that all this is actually related to her own experience as a child.

The movie adopts live-action and animation modes. The plot and setting show that the movie is a young children's movie, at least a family comedy. But with Deadpool Ryan Reynolds, the audience will definitely regret bringing their children to watch it. Well, Ryan Reynolds' lines are really big and he tells a lot of interesting jokes. From this point of view, "Mysterious Friends" is a restricted comedy.

In the Chinese mainland market, this kind of movie is a bit embarrassing. It is not suitable for children to watch, and adult audiences think this kind of live-action cartoon is immature.

"Mysterious Friends" is Hollywood's first summer blockbuster in the mainland market, but I didn't expect it to be so poorly received.

Next, there are many Hollywood blockbusters such as "Bad Boys 4", "Despicable Me 4", "A Quiet Place: Invasion Day", "Inside Out 2" and other blockbuster movies released in the mainland during the summer season, but none of them are expected to be hits. , since the mainland box office of "Avatar 2" exceeded 1.6 billion in 2022, it has been two years since a Hollywood movie has exceeded 1 billion in the mainland box office.

Chinese audiences seem to be really not interested in Hollywood blockbusters anymore.
