Chapter 530 Bai Susu: I will definitely win this round (asking for monthly votes)
“The premiere of ‘The Rescue’ will begin on January 19th, and the final poster will be released at the same time.”
"'One Life' will premiere on January 22, the Chinese New Year, and the official 'family-friendly' trailer has been released."
"'Blind Date' released the final trailer today, 'Why Can't I Find a Partner'."
"'Old Li's New Year' released a poster for the advanced release date, announcing that it will be released on January 22."
"Both the films 'Maomao's Great Time Travel Fantasy' and 'Da Hu's Friendship with Snakes' were announced to be screened on January 25th."
"'The Fairy Husband' releases a New Year's Eve trailer."
…
The advance screening of "The Wandering Earth" can be said to have a ripple effect. First, "Rescue" started to advance its premiere, and then "One World" released a "family fun" version of the trailer, indicating that the New Year is waiting for guests.
Needless to say, no one cares about the drama "Blind Date" that follows closely behind. It's just a cannon fodder.
What really concerns everyone is the situation of the three animated films "Old Li's New Year", "The Cat's Fantasy of Traveling Through Time" and "Big Tiger and Snakes".
Among them, there is no need to talk about "Old Li's New Year" for the time being. This animated film is originally aimed at adults, which is not surprising to everyone, but the advanced version of the poster surprised everyone.
In the poster for the film, Lao Li is smoking and laughing. The poster says: "I, Lao Li, can hardly bear to see you."
What does this mean???
Could this be a blind date for Lao Li???
If this was just a surprise, then "Cat's Great Fantasy of Traveling Through Time" was something that no one had expected.
You should know that "Cat's Great Time Travel Fantasy" is the ninth movie of "Cat Without Hair". This movie has always been a family-friendly movie that is more suitable for younger audiences.
At the beginning, "Cat Without Hair" was just a cartoon, which mainly tells the story of a hairless cat named Maomao. Although she was inferior, her parents often enlightened her, and her classmates and teachers were also very kind to her, so she gradually became confident.
It's a very low-grade cartoon.
No one was optimistic about this cartoon at the beginning, but after several seasons, the quality of "Cat Without Hair" has become better and better. The shortcomings of the first season have been basically corrected. In addition, the first feature film was released nine years ago. For almost 9 years, "Cat Without Hair" has not missed the Lunar New Year season every year.
The most important thing is that other movies may flop during the Lunar New Year, but "Cat Without Hair" will definitely not flop during the Lunar New Year. Over the past 9 years, every movie has been improving.
People have gone from discriminating against "Cat Without Hair", thinking it is a low-level and mentally retarded cartoon, to believing that "Cat Without Hair" movies are getting better and better and will never be absent from the Lunar New Year season every year.
But even though everyone was looking forward to this movie, no one expected that this time the movie of "Cat Without Hair" would be like this.
Just by looking at the title, I thought it was a fantasy film, or even a so-called grand fantasy of time travel.
Finally, let’s take a look at the first trailer.
From the beginning to now, "Cat's Great Time Travel Fantasy" has not released a trailer. This is completely different from its previous annual New Year promotions. The promotion had already started before, and it might even be previewed a month in advance.
That's right.
Only this animated film can preview the film a month in advance.
But this time, no matter whether it is publicity or hype, "Cat's Fantasy of Time Travel" has basically not been promoted at all.
Of course, after all, "Cat Time Travel Fantasy" has a good reputation and a mass base, and many people are waiting to watch this movie during the Lunar New Year holiday.
Cats always have a place in the Spring Festival movie season.
But this time.
A bit unexpected.
Because this time the trailer for the movie "Cat Time Travel Fantasy" is not a family-friendly movie for young children, but on the contrary, it is aimed at adults.
"Boycott Japanese goods and refuse to use them."
"Boycott Japanese goods and never let Japanese imperialism get rich."
“Boycott Japanese goods.”
…
The trailer actually begins in the 1930s, and the background at that time is that the people of the country and some patriotic industrial and commercial capitalists are launching a vigorous campaign to boycott Japanese goods.
Do not buy or sell Japanese goods, refuse to use Japanese goods, ban Japanese goods, and never let the Japanese imperialists get rich, because they use the money we earn to make large numbers of guns, cannons and bullets to massacre us.
This trailer shows both the cruelty of the time and the warmth of the world, which can be regarded as looking at the world through a cat.
At the same time, Maomao has some powers, for example, it seems that it can spit out daily necessities, food, airplanes, tanks, and cannons.
But Maomao's changes come at the cost of his own body.
Because it requires her blood.
But after all, it is a movie directed by He Jiahuan, so although the film shows the cruel side of that year, it does not exaggerate the tragedy too much.
This movie seems to be telling children to cherish their present life.
But at the moment, this trailer is only 3 minutes long, so we can’t tell much about it as a whole.
But some people have predicted that this time "Cat's Great Time Travel Fantasy" may not do very well at the box office.
The market for adult cartoons is already quite cruel. This "Cat's Great Time Travel Fantasy" is aimed at young audiences, but it is targeted at adults.
Want to appeal to all ages???
It's too difficult.
Among them, many people predicted that "Cat's Great Time Travel Fantasy" would definitely fail at the box office.
As for the other one, "Big Tiger and Snake", it is a typical cartoon for children. After all, this year is the Year of the Snake, so it is not surprising that a tiger and a snake are together.
The three animated films are currently making it difficult for everyone to predict.
Originally, "Cat's Great Time Travel Fantasy" should have been a sure box office success, but now it seems to have done a bit of a disservice. In this case, it's hard to say.
Apart from this, several other movies are still discussed more.
Of course, there is only one movie here that is still silent, and it is the only silent movie, that is Chen Feng’s movie.
Even up to now, Chen Feng doesn’t even know when the premiere will be.
It's so quiet.
Of course, no one was surprised.
Chen Feng’s movies have never needed much publicity because he has a large number of loyal fans who will always support Chen Feng. Secondly, the investors of Chen Feng’s movies should have spent their money on distribution.
As I said before, film scheduling determines life and death.
That's exactly the case. All of Chen Feng's film publicity and promotion expenses were spent on scheduling the films. This is clear to everyone in the industry. After all, the distribution of Chen Feng's film investors is extremely strong.
In short, there are still 14 days left before the Spring Festival release of the films, and 10 films have basically already decided in advance.
After all, the outcome of the Spring Festival period can often be decided in just one day.
This year's Spring Festival period is particularly special. After all, the Spring Festival period has been declining for two consecutive years. This year, these 10 movies are really competing hard.
Not only are these 10 movies competing, but the theaters are also competing at this time.
Some major cinema chains have even announced that they will not raise prices.
China Cinemas will not raise prices during this year's Spring Festival.
During this year's Spring Festival, IMAX theaters and Daxing Cinemas will offer half-price movie tickets on New Year's Eve.
…
In short, the cinema chains have tried their best. For them, this year has also been difficult. With the economic downturn, many people are unwilling to go to the cinema. Especially after the audiences left the cinema, it is difficult for them to come back.
So over the past year, cinemas have also been trying to save themselves.
For example, some cinemas have started to offer "early bird prices" or discounts for late-night shows, while others offer discounts of 19.9 during prime time on Tuesdays and Fridays.
In short, everyone wants to do everything possible to attract audiences to the venue.
But it's difficult.
What is the saying? ?
It is very difficult to come back once you leave.
It's easy to lose audiences, but it's difficult to invite them back.
In fact, several cinema chains have already decided not to raise prices during this year's Lunar New Year holiday, because they can no longer hold on. If they cannot make up for the losses during this year's Lunar New Year holiday, they may have to close down.
In this case, several cinema chains are preparing to discuss not raising prices, but to slightly reduce them.
As for the film company, they naturally have such a plan.
At the same time, the relevant departments also issued a document, which simply means that the price increase should not be too excessive and should not kill the goose that lays the golden eggs.
It’s a pity that some theaters have reflected on it and are thinking about lowering prices or taking it slow, but some theaters don’t think so. If they don’t make a quick buck during the Lunar New Year holiday, don’t you think they are stupid?
In short, each cinema chain has chosen what it believes to be the right option.
After all, the Spring Festival is getting closer and closer.
On January 18th, "The Wandering Earth" welcomed preview screenings in ten cities across the country. In each city, the preview screenings were scheduled for one in the afternoon and one or two in the prime time in the evening.
Obviously, due to the success of the preview on January 15, the preview on the 18th can still be described as quite lively.
After all, today is the weekend.
There were no new movies released during the Spring Festival from January 10th to January 29th, so everyone must watch "The Wandering Earth" in time for the weekend.
However, due to time constraints, all the previews this time are regular 3D versions, and there is no IMAX version.
It is also because of this that the visual effects of "The Wandering Earth" are slightly inferior.
But even so, everyone still felt quite shocked after watching "The Wandering Earth", and some people were dissatisfied.
The capital has arranged an IMAX theater today. The Daxing City Cinema is all IMAX theater in the afternoon and evening. Bai Suzhen watched the evening show.
She had not originally planned to come and see it, but her best friend Xiang Yan dragged her here.
"Know yourself and know your enemy. Don't you want to see what "The Wandering Earth" is like???"
Xiang Yan's words made Bai Suzhen a little moved.
really.
Even if she really didn't like Yu Xiaoshu, she still wanted to see what this highly praised movie "The Wandering Earth" was like? ?
Then Bai Suzhen and Xiang Yan came to the cinema.
Both of them were wearing masks, and Bai Suzhen and Xiang Yan did not make many public appearances, especially Bai Suzhen. She was different from Yu Xiaoshu. After all, she had just returned to China and had not been exposed much.
She was only slightly exposed in the TV series "My Grandma", but her style on and off stage is completely different. Because of this, even if Bai Suzhen doesn't wear a mask, basically not many people would recognize her.
At 8:10, the movie officially began.
There are quite a lot of people in the IMAX hall of Daxing Cinemas, with an occupancy rate of almost 60%, which is very high.
The two-hour-long "The Wandering Earth" really shocked many people.
The scene where Liu Peiqiang drove the space station into Jupiter at the end really moved many people.
At the same time, some people were already in tears after the movie ended.
But Bai Suzhen didn't have any reaction when watching "The Wandering Earth" because she felt that this movie was useless except for the slightly better special effects.
The plot makes no sense, and the conflict between father and son seems a bit pretentious. At the same time, the so-called rescue is completely deliberate.
Finally, the movie tries to elevate the main actors a bit, which is a bit biased.
The most important thing is that the leading actor Liu Qi can’t die no matter what, on the contrary, the others die at any time.
Especially the plan to save the earth seemed like a flash of inspiration and was completely irrational.
How can a movie like this be my rival?
"Let's go, Mei."
Bai Su Su seemed to be in a good mood: "What do you think of "The Wandering Earth"???"
Xiang Mei said with some admiration: "This movie is really beyond my expectations. No wonder the preview has such good reputation. I originally thought it was promoted with money, but now it seems that it does have some strength."
Bai Susu: "Hmm???"
After Xiang Mei finished speaking, she looked at Bai Su Su's expression and reacted: "But Su Su, don't worry. I think "The Wandering Earth" and "The Rescue" are two completely different styles. In comparison, "The Rescue" is stronger, the plot is more intense, and it can better highlight the protagonist..."
After all, Xiang Mei has also watched "The Rescue", and it can be said that it has two completely different styles from "The Wandering Earth".
They are all in the end times.
However, "The Rescue" tells the story of personal heroism, and it is about scientists from all over the world working together to migrate to other planets. Of course, for Xiang Mei, he thinks that "The Rescue" highlights foreigners too much, and the characters of several domestic actors are not likable anyway.
However, Bai Suzhen said that everything was for the plot.
Then I won’t say anything.
In any case, Bai Susu believes that these two science fiction films really have the potential to bring huge changes to the Lunar New Year holiday season.
As for Bai Suzhen, she was full of confidence.
Because after watching "The Wandering Earth", she thought the movie would not have any impact on her.
She will definitely win this round.
