This year's Spring Festival film will make the audience feel the difficulty of choosing in advance. For example, Yi Yang Qianxi, Shen Teng starring in "Manjiang Hong" not only has a strong lineup, but also directed by national teacher Zhang Yimou, plus the film integrates suspense and comedy, these two audience's favorite forms are enough to ignite the desire to watch movies.
And "The Wandering Earth", which opened the door to Chinese science fiction movies, finally ushered in the second work after four years, still starring actor Wu Jing, this time also joined the heavyweight starring Andy Lau, the two have great box office appeal, but also have a fairly good audience popularity, and the strong alliance has also increased attention.
The main suspenseful and brain-burning "Nameless" also whets everyone's appetite because of the cast, and the actor Liang Chaowei plus Zhou Xun after the film is already a king fried card.
Coupled with the starring Wang Yibo, as a popular top stream, not only has high popularity, but also appeared on the big screen for the first time, I believe that both fans and audiences expect the Chinese film industry to produce another "four-character younger brother" with excellent acting skills.
And in every year's Spring Festival movie, it is bound to be able to get beautiful results of comedy movies, this year there is Zhang Xiaofei and Lei Jiayin starring "Exchange Life", the trailer alone has made people laugh to beat the bed, Zhang Xiaofei-style hurdles, Lei Jiayin-style cheap, this year's Spring Festival dark horse movie, it depends on whether "Exchange Life" can be won!
Of course, there are cartoons that will meet with everyone every year and the national comic work "Deep Sea", although there is also a live-action movie "Chinese Table Tennis Jedi Strikes Back", but the current pre-sale box office performance is not so eye-catching. But before the real release, everything is uncertain, in previous years, there were movies in the Spring Festival file that successfully counterattacked, and perhaps Deng Chao's "Chinese Table Tennis" can also complete a Jedi counterattack.
Judging from the current box office ranking of these new films, the new pre-sale box office ranked first is "The Wandering Earth 2" directed by Guo Fan, starring Wu Jing and Andy Lau, which is a new film of Shen Teng and Yi Yangqianxi.
Before this, the pre-sale box office has always been "Manjiang Red" relatively high, but "The Wandering Earth 2" has gradually taken the lead. It began to counterattack before the film was released, and according to this momentum, "The Wandering Earth 2" is likely to become the pre-sale box office champion of this year's new film during the Spring Festival.
In terms of the attractiveness of the cast, the two works are comparable, but in terms of the eye-catching degree of the lineup, it is indeed that "Manjiang Hong" directed by Zhang Yimou is more brilliant. After all, Yi Yangqianxi, as a rookie in the Chinese film industry, coupled with Shen Teng, who also has strong appeal, the two trump cards have already occupied an absolute advantage.
But because "Man Jiang Hong" is a comedy work, it also gathers many comedians, such as Yue Yunpeng, Lei Jiayin, Guo Jingfei, Wei Xiang, etc., and this time Zhang Yimou also gave many newcomers opportunities, even Zhang Yimou's royal actor Zhang Yi will also play an important role in the film this time.
The main focus of "The Wandering Earth 2" is focused on Wu Jing and Andy Lau, as early as the end of the first work, it was mentioned to thank Andy Lau, which also made many audiences expect Andy Lau to appear in "The Wandering Earth 2". Although it is a pity that Wu Mengda's figure cannot be seen in the second sequel, Andy Lau's appearance makes up for this regret to some extent.
It's just that in addition to the two, the candidates for other actors are not as attractive as Yue Yunpeng, Lei Jiayin and others, but the theme of "The Wandering Earth 2" is the most able to bring everyone freshness.
The release of "The Wandering Earth" four years ago finally saw new hope for domestic sci-fi movies that had been silent, and since then many works of the same type have been launched one after another, and the launch of "Three-Body Problem" on the small screen has also attracted everyone's attention, which shows that everyone's expectations for domestic sci-fi works are only high.
It's a pity that after "The Wandering Earth", even if the same large-scale production of "Shanghai Fortress" was launched, it destroyed everyone's hopes, so whether domestic sci-fi movies can set off a boom again, all watch this "The Wandering Earth 2".
The reason why everyone has such high expectations for "The Wandering Earth 2" is also because the first work won a high rating of 7.9, and more than 1.82 million viewers gave high evaluations, and even the box office of the film eventually won 4.68 billion. This is the highest box office record won by a Spring Festival movie before the release of "Hello, Li Huanying".
With the box office of "Hello, Li Huanying" reaching 5.4 billion, "Changjin Lake" won the first place in the total box office list of Chinese films, with a box office of 5.7 billion.
"The Wandering Earth", which has always been in the top three, is now ranked fifth, but it is still in a far leading position. As long as the quality of this sequel can still be maintained at the original level, it can have the same brilliant performance, and even break the Spring Festival box office record.
However, it is currently certain that the work "The Wandering Earth 2" made Wu Jing's personal box office break 30 billion is not a dream, the current Wu Jing's personal total box office results have reached 28.6 billion, beating Shen Teng in second place and Huang Bo in third place, as long as "The Wandering Earth 2" can win 1.4 billion box office, he will become the first 30 billion actor.
Judging from the movies in the Spring Festival file in previous years, all films that have attracted everyone's attention such as "The Wandering Earth" can have box office results of more than 2 billion or even 3 billion, which means that Wu Jing can steadily achieve a personal box office of more than 30 billion, and still ranks first.
And Shen Teng wants to surpass Wu Jing, at least there is a box office gap of 5 billion, which is not a small pressure for "Manjiang Red", although this work is equally attractive, but the key depends on the quality, if the national master Zhang Yimou plays steadily, Shen Teng may also become a 30 billion actor, but in comparison, Wu Jing's odds of winning are greater.
"The Wandering Earth 2" and "Manjiang Red" are the two most competitive movies, but "Nameless" and "Exchange Life" are no less. Comedy has always been the most popular genre in the Spring Festival file, and "Nameless" is full of gimmicks, if there is a bright word-of-mouth performance, counterattack surpassing "The Wandering Earth 2" and "Manjiang Red" is not a problem.
After all, the heroine of "Exchange Life" Zhang Xiaofei is the heroine of "Hello, Li Huanying", the first starring big-screen work directly won 5.4 billion box office, and the audience is getting better and better, Lei Jiayin, whose acting skills have been widely recognized, and Zhang Xiaofei is strongly united, I believe there will be a more surprising performance!
Although this year's competition is fierce and there is a high probability that there will be a fight between immortals, what the audience is most looking forward to is to see such a scene, which directly proves the development and leap of Chinese films, and only better works can make the audience who gradually increase the number of films have the desire to contribute to the box office. I don't know which movie you're most looking forward to this year?
