Among them, "Bid Rabbit 2: Escape Plan" and "Summer Friends Sunny Day" won the love of the audience with the tone of decompression and joy and the warm and healing friendship respectively, and "Bid Rabbit 2" finally earned 197 million box office, becoming the first imported animation film in the post-epidemic era to surpass the previous work at the box office, and the highest-grossing imported animation film in 2021 so far.
Looking at the next Hollywood animation list, there are many works worth looking forward to, including big IP sequels, and original family works, which are very worth looking forward to!
Oscar-nominated best animated feature film director Kirk de Miko's new masterpiece, "Honey Bear's Musical Journey" tells a joyful and moving story: After the death of his partner Andrea's grandfather, in order to fulfill his last wish, he embarks on a journey of "adventure for love" with the ghost horse cool girl Gabi. The living treasure duo has experienced many challenges such as road racing, crossing the rainforest, and fighting snakes, and strives to fulfill and make up for Andrei. At the same time, they also know each other better because of music and become true friends. Gabby also broke the gap with her mother and expressed her love for each other. Adventurous friendship, warm family affection, true love, and healing emotions have also made the film receive wide acclaim, and has been praised by foreign media as "the most suitable animation to watch with family".
The combination of honey bear and eccentric little girl rarely seen on the big screen is very fresh, and the colorful painting style is also in line with the preferences of children's audiences. Honey Bear Vivo decathlon, can sing and dance can play instruments very circle fans; Gabi loves rap, has a lively personality, although he is a "bear child" in the eyes of adults, he is enthusiastic and kind, and he also has a strong "survival ability" in adventure. I believe that parents will also rethink how to communicate sincerely with their children when they see such children. In short, the joyful and warm painting style is very suitable for watching with the family.
It is worth mentioning that the composer of the film is Lin-Manuel Miranda, who wrote the hit musical "Hamilton", he himself also voiced the honey bear in the film, as one of the hottest music producers in recent years, his joining also makes this animation have more quality assurance. "Honey Bear's Musical Journey" has been confirmed for introduction, and parents remember to pay attention.
"Intelligent Counter-Offensive"
Created by the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, the Spider-Man: Parallel Universe gold production team is one of the most anticipated animated blockbusters of the year.
The film features a family of four, a maverick and creative girl Katie admitted to the dream film school. She had planned to fly to school, but her father, who loved nature, decided to drive the whole family to take Katie to college. Also on the road are the rarity mother and eccentric brother, as well as the chubby cute pug. The original happy family road trip was disrupted by accidents. The most commonly used electronic devices, from cell phones to household appliances to a range of the latest range of private robots, have decided to attack humans on a global scale. With the help of two friendly malfunctioning robots, the Mitchell family worked together to help each other face this extraordinary challenge.
The "freak family" shows their talents, the humor is constantly happy, and the story also makes people reflect on the relationship between people in the era of intelligence, which is very meaningful. Adults and children surrounded by electronic products may wish to walk into the theater together and relive life with this animation.
Elf Hostel 4: Transformation Adventure
The Elf Hostel series has always been full of witty humor and imagination, with various elves as the protagonists, which also makes the animation more interesting. As the finale of the series, the fourth part is very exciting, in this part, the entire elven family is forced to transform due to accidents, the elves have become humans, and the only human has become elves.
In order to find a way to change back to the original form, they had to go to the human world with their families to find a cure, so unlike the previous story, which basically took place in the hostel, this time they finally entered the new world. It is conceivable that under the double attack of the new identity and new world, this family will inevitably create all kinds of jokes.
Baby Boss 2: Family Business
After four years, "Baby Boss" finally ushered in the second part, which was launched on North American streaming media this summer, and the response was good. The plot of the first part is the story of a young boy who gradually accepts his baby brother, and the timeline of the second part is directly pulled to many years later, when the two brothers have grown up and the relationship is also estranged, but some accidents make them meet again in the form of a baby, which also allows them to re-examine the meaning of the family.
The biggest attraction of this series is the cute baby and the affection between the brothers, in the sequel they return to their childhood in the adult mode, I believe it will bring the audience a completely different contrast, compared to the pure child affection, this kind of retrospective review of the plot arrangement is also easier to impress adults.
