The box office is only 1% of "Disappearing Her", Chinese audiences do not buy it, and Hollywood's 2.1 billion blockbuster pounced

Although I thought that "Indiana Jones 5" would be bad at the box office, I didn't expect the movie to pounce so tragically.

In 2023, Marvel officially announced its return to the mainland market, coupled with the treatment of many Hollywood blockbusters being released simultaneously, and even many Hollywood blockbusters entered the most golden summer of the year, and many fans are looking forward to the re-emergence of Hollywood at the mainland box office.

But the summer season gave Hollywood fans a head start.

The box office of 6 Hollywood movies in the summer has swooped, and "Indiana Jones 5" only "Disappeared Her" 1%!

In 2023, the mainland summer file will let Hollywood take the lead, "The Little Mermaid", "Transformers 7", "The Flash", "Spider-Man: Across the Universe", "Crazy Element City" and "Indiana Jones 5", it can be said that all parts are super large-scale productions, and the lowest-cost "Spider-Man: Across the Universe" has spent $100 million to produce, forming a crushing advantage over domestic films in production.

But at the box office, Hollywood can't play at all.

"The Little Mermaid" has a box office of only 26.5 million in China, "Transformers 7" has just exceeded 600 million, "The Flash" is 179 million, "Spider-Man: Across the Universe" is 340 million, and "Crazy Element City" has only 95.65 million box office.

Because "Disappearing Her" exploded in the summer, accounting for more than half of the scheduled films, and the box office accounted for about 80%, so the box office of these Hollywood blockbusters has entered the closing stage, and the box office has not much room for growth. It can be seen that these 6 new films are of various themes and genres, and even "The Flash" and "Spider-Man: Across the Universe" have a good reputation.

But Chinese audiences just don't buy it. It seems that overnight Hollywood has become a niche in the Chinese market.

Halfway through 2023, the highest Hollywood box office is "Fast and Furious 10" 981 million, occupying the 6th position in the annual box office list, interestingly, the box office of the 5th place "Life is Not Familiar" broke through 1.183 billion, and the production cost of this domestic film is less than 100 million, and "Fast and Furious 10" is 340 million US dollars, which is about 2.46 billion yuan.

It can be seen that Hollywood's loss to domestic films is by no means a visual effects problem such as special effects scenes. Perhaps the most important thing is that mainland audiences have no resonance with Hollywood blockbusters, and simple visual effects have begun to fatigue aesthetics, and in recent years, the plots and action scenes of Hollywood blockbusters have become more and more old-fashioned, especially the plot is simply assembly line production, and even began to follow the trend.

"Avengers 4" engaged in parallel universes, and for a while all superhero movies were mixed in the multiverse.

Although domestic films cannot be compared with top Hollywood blockbusters in terms of cost and special effects scenes, the story can catch the audience's attention, as can be seen from the two new films of the same period, "Disappearing Her" and "Indiana Jones 5".

"Indiana Jones 5" is a typical Hollywood assembly line product.

The production cost is 295 million US dollars, that is, 2.1 billion yuan, every second of the movie is burning money, the opening male protagonist 82-year-old Harrison Ford returns to youth, is to rely on special effects technology frame by frame to do, it can be said that the sense of realism is much better than Uncle Da of "The Wandering Earth 2", this is the effect of spending a lot of money, and the action scenes of the movie are also big scenes.

As of 21 o'clock on July 1, the cumulative box office of the movie in the mainland was only 12 million in 2 days.

"Disappearing Her" has almost no action scenes, only a few drag racing shootout scenes, or pediatric level, and even the movie takes place in Southeast Asia, but the filming location is in Hainan, and the biggest cost of production is estimated to be copyright and star salary.

But the story of the film closely follows the Chinese audience, seizing the explosive point of phoenix men and rich women.

At present, the cumulative box office of the movie has exceeded 2 billion in 10 days of release!

According to the current trend, the box office support of "Indiana Jones 5" is 1% of "Disappearing Her"! It can be seen that Chinese audiences really do not buy Hollywood blockbusters.

Hollywood waits for Tom to save the scene!

Although Hollywood's blockbusters in the mainland summer have hit the streets so far, Hollywood still has two new films "Mission Impossible 7" and "Megalodon 2" waiting to be released. Among them, "Megalodon 2" should be regarded as a domestic film, with a larger proportion of Chinese investment, and Wu Jing is the main player in the mainland market. Even if the box office hits, I am afraid that it will not prove the strength of Hollywood.

Therefore, "Mission Impossible 7" can be regarded as a blockbuster.

Tom is one of Hollywood's most favored action stars in the mainland, the "Mission Impossible" series has always been known for fighting action scenes, this time "Mission Impossible 7" does not engage in Hollywood ZZZQ elements, handsome men and beautiful women play brilliantly.

It is also the most popular blockbuster of Hollywood in the mainland summer file.
