The King of Huayu Science Fiction

Chapter 494 Word of Mouth Explosion
The 2019 Spring Festival can be regarded as the fourth Spring Festival file that DreamWorks has participated in. For the past three years, DreamWorks has been the most dazzling star and protagonist of the Spring Festival file.

In 16, "The Mekong River" emerged as a dark horse, directly overshadowing the popularity of "The Mermaid" by Xingye, who was in the sky at that time, and the box office was even better.

In 17, there were "Tang Detective II" and "The Return of the Great Sage". At that time, DreamWorks was the main producer of "Tang Detective II". Shuangshuang broke the record and opened the first year of animation. With an astonishing box office of 3 billion, it directly heated up the entire animation industry.

In 18, this combination of live-action + animation was reproduced. "Red Sea" and "Panda" directly covered all age groups and various groups of people, and harvested the biggest cake in the Spring Festival.

However, during the Spring Festival this year, DreamWorks is showing some signs of dying out. Of course, in addition to the pressure from other major companies in the industry, DreamWorks itself does not have ready-made heavyweight works that can catch up with the Spring Festival. "The Wandering Earth" is still in post-production, "Matrix" Ⅲ" and "Aquila Warrior" are still filming.

Of course, this "quitting the flags and drums" is the public opinion's outlook and evaluation of DreamWorks' Spring Festival this year before the Spring Festival.

Only one animated film participating in the war is basically standing aside in the eyes of most people, and it belongs to consciously giving up the center of the stage.

Compared with "The Return of the Journey to the West" and "Kung Fu Panda", "Wall-E" is completely a "three-no product", and it is impossible to give people a sense of oppression.

This is very natural. Although "The Great Sage" and "Panda" have both received more than one billion box office results that were unimaginable for previous animated films, domestic filmmakers are not idiots, and they don't think that Huaguo is really all of a sudden. Everyone loves animation.

Most of the media have also analyzed the reasons for the success of these two films. Naturally, they are inseparable from the two elements of Journey to the West IP and the national treasure panda.

Chen Jingxing himself admitted this view, which is why he used these two animation films to break the ice and cultivate the parent-child movie-watching market and animation-watching habits.

Therefore, most of the animation films that major studios and animation companies have started to set up projects in the past two years revolve around Journey to the West, Fengshen, White Snake, Chenxiang, etc., and a small number of them are also trying to find national animations on the market. IP to make animated films.

Capital is sensitive to the market, and the crowds of Journey to the West and Conferred God themes are naturally because such themes are rich in money, easy to market, and easy to attract audiences.

Therefore, even after several months of cute marketing, "Wall-E" will still be overwhelmed by "Dinosaur Adventure" in the eyes of public opinion and theaters.

Coupled with the fact that there are a total of three animated films gathered during the Spring Festival, even if it takes [-] steps back, the animation quality of DreamWorks is superior and can stand out, but the other two animated films will definitely take away the rest of the animation viewing market. less cake.

This is why everyone feels that DreamWorks will stand aside during the Spring Festival this year.

It’s not that Dreamworks thinks that DreamWorks will not produce the sequels of “The Great Sage” and “Panda”, and somehow releases an original non-IP animation film that will definitely encounter Waterloo and hit the box office, but that “WALL-E” is definitely not the Spring Festival. The protagonist of the file.

The competitor of "Wall-E" should be "The Adventures of Dinosaurs" and "Young Lei Zhenzi".

Let's convince the other two animated films first. The real highlight of the Spring Festival is naturally "Tang Detective III" and the new movie of Master Xing and Uncle Long, as well as the "Fake Life" with Shen Teng. Unknown Swordsman" is not very popular.

The entire Spring Festival file should be a pattern of four live-action blockbusters singing a big drama, and three animated films dancing on the side.

Of course, the most dazzling star is naturally "Tang Detective Ⅲ". The original reasoning and comedy add to the excitement in Tokyo, and there are many Dongying stars who are familiar to domestic audiences. Appetite was also whetted.

The focus of the media and netizens is nothing more than whether "Tang Detective III" can surpass the previous one and enter the 30 billion club, or even higher.

But soon everyone discovered that a certain movie that the media identified as a "supporting role" began to rush to play the "protagonist".

As various companies pay more and more attention to online marketing, the first wave of movie viewing feedback during the Spring Festival is becoming more and more indistinguishable. Movie reviews released on the first day of the new year are full of praise and criticism. polarized.

From "Tang Detective III" to "Parallel Mission", to "The New King of Comedy" and "The Counterfeit Life", all have mixed reviews, some are bad and some are good.

Many viewers who have made up their minds to wait for word of mouth to buy tickets before deciding what tickets to buy are a little at a loss.

Only "Robot Wall-E" has sprung up, and it began to spread rapidly on social platforms with almost zero negative reviews.

By the second day of junior high school, after "WALL-E" was first released on Douban, word-of-mouth also completely exploded.

And it was an amazing word-of-mouth explosion.

[I can only say that DreamWorks is awesome, Chen Jingxing is awesome! 】

[This is the best movie in theaters right now, possibly the best animated movie ever made, and believe it or not, Wall-E might also be the cutest movie screen character ever!] 】

["Robot Wall-E" is the highest achievement of DreamWorks! 】

[I could watch this movie countless times, it's simply the cutest movie I've ever seen. 】

【电影前40分钟我可以给120分！百分制的！后50分钟可以给85分，合计100分！】

[One of the best movies of all time!That’s right, I didn’t add animation. This is a sci-fi movie and love movie suitable for all ages. Don’t just think it’s an animated movie. It’s your loss if you haven’t seen him, not Wall-E’s loss]

[Go to the theater and watch it for me!It is enough to watch this one, and the other movies in the Spring Festival file are not as good as Wall-E's toes! ! 】

[My impressions of "Wall-E": Have you seen "Kung Fu Panda"?Ten times better than "Kung Fu Panda"! ! 】

[One thing to say, to be honest, the first half of the movie is perfect, and it is slightly inferior when humans appear, but overall it is still worthy of five stars. From my point of view, it is indeed better than "Panda" and "Great Sage", and better than " "Your Name" should be stronger]

[To be honest, I have never been very interested in animation. Last year's popular "Kung Fu Panda" was also like that, a bit naive, but after "Wall-E", I will be brainless about animation films after DreamWorks. support】

[My wife and I watched it with our children, and it shocked our whole family. DreamWorks is trying to be supernatural. Last year's "Inception" and this year's "Wall-E" are coming. The works are getting more and more against the sky.

To be honest, I used to be a little disgusted by some Jingfan and Mengzhui's day-to-day appearance, but now I understand that they do have this capital, although they earn more and more money and their status is getting higher and higher. It's getting higher, but people don't float, and they are full of sincerity.

On the contrary, some people are really disappointing. That’s right, I’m talking about Chen Sicheng and Chen Gou. Nima’s "Tang Detective III" stumped me at the beginning, and the reasoning that is getting more and more mentally retarded. Anyway, Tang Tan's reputation is getting bigger and bigger, is it really starting to show off?
In addition to Chen Sicheng, there are Uncle Long and Master Xing.

I won't say anything about "Parallel Mission". Although there are too many loopholes, it is indeed quite innovative. What kind of shit is "The New King of Comedy"? I want to feel sorry for the "King of Comedy" 20 years ago. How about cutting off star fans as leeks, when will the movie tickets be returned?
If DreamWorks were replaced by these companies, they should launch "Kung Fu Panda II" or "The Return of the Great Sage II" this year. There is really no comparison between people. Nima saw these movies yesterday, which made my stomach hurt. , I want to be a dream now! 】

Obviously, the audience's feedback and praise are significantly better than last year's "Kung Fu Panda" and the previous year's "The Return of the Great Sage".

It's a little bit like "Inception" in the National Day file last year.

And this sudden outbreak of word-of-mouth also made "WALL-E" the brightest star under the spotlight during the Spring Festival, especially as the real word-of-mouth of other movies began to be exposed, "WALL-E" set off even more stalwart up.

In particular, "Tang Detective III", "The New King of Comedy" and "Parallel Mission" have not been as good as expected, and the media and netizens have started to trample on public opinion.

Pulling is a popular activity for the people, and the high word-of-mouth of "Wall-E" and the praise voice close to last year's "Inception" also made other audiences who didn't choose to watch this movie because they didn't have any feelings for animated movies started. Great curiosity arose.

With the help of this kind of public opinion, the pre-sale and filming of "Wall-E" in the third year of junior high school began to rise rapidly.

Originally, "Wall-E" had only 4 filmings, and the filming accounted for 7.7%, ranking only sixth, below "Dinosaur Adventure".

The box office was 6700 million on the first day of junior high school, and 8600 million on the second day of junior high school.

With the rapid growth of pre-sales, in the third year of junior high school, the number of screenings of "Wall-E" almost doubled to 7.6, and the screenings also rose to the fourth place, second only to "Tang Detective III", "Parallel Mission" and "Counterfeit Life" surpassed "The New King of Comedy".

And the box office of the third year of junior high school even surpassed that of "The Counterfeit Life", which had a higher film schedule, reaching 1.66 million, staged a double box office curve, and skyrocketed.

It vaguely reminds me of the epic box office counterattack of "The Mekong" three years ago, and it also made the media and melon-eaters excited again.
