The Hollywood blockbuster "Godzilla vs. Kong 2" has firmly won the championship position, and the film is getting closer and closer to the box office of 900 million after this weekend. Judging from such a box office, there is a great hope of competing for the position of Hollywood's annual box office champion.

The stamina of "Let's Shake the Sun Together" is still very strong, after all, it has a great quality advantage, but the film obviously failed to fully realize its energy.
The new Japanese film "Digimon 02: The First Call" ushered in its premiere, with more than 82,000 screenings on the first day and a volume of more than 6.35 million, which is only one-third of the first "Digimon: The Last Evolution" on the first day (19.582 million), but the stamina of this kind of film will not be too good.

"The World of Grass and Trees" has completed a box office of 100 million, and there is not much pressure. It is still worth celebrating that literary films have broken 100 million yuan, and the blessing effect of Wu Lei, Chen Jianbin and other main creators is very obvious.
