"Frozen" received the blessing of "Let It Go", and after nine weeks of its release, it still raked in 100 million US dollars at the box office. This is only when the box office data of the first week of the full release did not explode, ranking among the 400 million North American box office. club.
"Super Marines" got the blessing of "Renly and Dabai" four-frame comics, continuously handed over sky-high declines, and withstood the impact of "Hunger Games 3 (Part 1)" and "The Hobbit 3" one after another, and the box office The data has been advancing by leaps and bounds; but unfortunately, four-frame comics are not music that swept the world after all, and the follow-up influence of the virus spread has not been able to trigger another phenomenal wave.
The reason why "phenomenal level" is phenomenal is because it is rare to see.
After the New Year's Day holiday, "Super Marines" immediately ushered in a 38% weekend box office drop - objectively speaking, such data is already very good for ordinary movies, and it can even be said to exceed expectations; but If you want to get out of the incredible box office curve like "Frozen", it seems that the follow-up is weak, and the continued strong upward momentum of the follow-up box office has not reached the "legendary" status after all.
After that, the weekend box office decline value and the total box office growth curve of "Super Marines" have always remained at an excellent but not top-level value:
Hobby Chinese Network
Two weeks of declines were only single digits, three weeks of declines below 20%, six weeks of declines of less than 30%, and three of them showing abnormal increases…
The overall box office growth curve is exceptionally good, which also allows the long-term cycle of the film to reach a full 30 weeks, and it will not be released until the last week of May - in direct contrast, "The Hunger Games 3 (Part 1)" was released for 17 weeks. , "The Hobbit 3" was released for fifteen weeks, enough to clearly feel the strong endurance of "Super Marines".
Unfortunately, this is still not enough.
In the end, the North American box office data of "Super Marines" settled at 393 million US dollars. It was not able to join the North American 400 million animated film club, nor could it become the fourth animated film in North America to break the 400 million threshold. To stop here is undoubtedly very embarrassing.
In fact, after the ninth week of its release, "Super Marines" still has a strong growth of 30 million US dollars at the box office, compared to "The Avengers", "Captain America 2", "Batman: The Dark Knight" and other works. It was even better, and even far exceeded expectations, but after all, it failed to replicate the miracle of "Frozen" - during the entire release process, while the box office remained ahead during the same period, the total box office fell behind by about seven million dollars. This also increasingly proves that the phenomenal miracle of "Frozen" is difficult to replicate.
It's just a pity, it's just that there is no further breakthrough, but in fact, the North American box office data of "Super Marines" is still very bright, very very!
The box office figure of 393 million US dollars made "Super Marines" the fourth highest-grossing animated film in North American film history. The top three were "Shrek 2", "Toy Story 3", "Frozen" Romance" and "Finding Nemo" with a box office of 380 million in North America dropped to fifth place.
At the same time, "Super Marines" also made a strong entry into the top 30 of the total box office in North American film history, officially surpassing "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 2)" and came to the twenty-third position. It is also the fourth film starring or dubbing by Renly to rank among the top 30 in the box office history.
Renly officially surpassed Harrison Ford, who made history with the "Star Wars" series, Jennifer Lawrence, who rose to the top of North America with the "Hunger Games" series, Robert Downey Jr., who achieved the pinnacle of his career with the Marvel series, and Tobey Maguire, who became famous around the world with the "Spider-Man" series, became the only actor in Hollywood to have four works in the top 30 box office of film history.
Although everyone calls Renly "Hollywood No. 1", it's only by actually browsing the list that you can understand the meaning of the title:
The other four actors are all based on the same role and the same series, and they have entered the top 30 on the North American box office charts. The sequel and the adaptation are the only leading roles; Four films have successfully accomplished such a feat that even Tom Hanks and Tom Cruise have not been able to reach a height.
This is the majesty of the first person in Hollywood!
What's more, Renly's strong influence is not limited to North America; "Super Marines"'s box office journey is far more than that.
As a PG-rated animated film, "Super Marines" for all ages, like "Frozen", has unlimited potential on a global scale.
"Super Marines" was successfully screened in 60 countries and regions around the world, including the Chinese market.
However, it must be pointed out that the Chinese market, which is still in the early stage of development, has not yet matured in its acceptance of genre films. The entire market has a "prejudice" against animated films. The so-called cartoons should be watched by children. , which also makes the general public not have much interest in animated films. If you want to promote the box office of animated films, you must create an Internet boom, and young people are willing to enter the cinema.
Last year's "Frozen" landed in the Chinese market, but the total box office was only 48 million US dollars. Compared with the North American market and other overseas markets that swept through the wasteland, it can even be said to have a sluggish performance - after all, The huge potential shown in the Chinese market is now catching up with Japan and the United Kingdom; for a film that has swept thousands of troops worldwide, the box office data of 48 million is not too bright.
The same goes for Super Marines.
The amazing thing is that "Frozen" swept the global market with the song "Let's Go", but there was no audience who could conquer the Chinese market; "Super Marines" failed to break out of the sky-breaking box office in other markets. Pulling power, but thanks to Dabai's cuteness and cuteness, he has won incredible support in the Huaxia market. The "four-frame comics" and cute video clips have triggered an unparalleled enthusiasm on social networks.
One hundred million dollars!
"Super Marines" successfully swept the box office of 100 million US dollars in China, which is more than double that of "Frozen". Although it cannot be compared with "Gravity" and "Interstellar", it is still a One of the best-performing animated films in the Chinese market in recent years, and the results are really gratifying.
This further confirms Renly's unparalleled appeal in China, and to some extent, even faintly surpasses North America. Because in China, Renly has the ability to turn corruption into magic, and the blind fanaticism of fans has really created a super high market value.
Of the 60 overseas markets outside of North America, only two have accumulated a cumulative total of over $100 million for "Super Marines":
One is China and the other is Japan.
Last year, "Frozen" made $249 million in Japan, not only surpassing "Titanic" and becoming the box office champion of Hollywood movies in the Japanese market; it also surpassed "Howl's Moving Castle" , became the runner-up in the total box office of the Japanese market, second only to "Spirited Away".
This is a miracle.
This year, "Super Marines" is also very popular in Japan - after all, the San Francisco in the background of the story was created after integrating the characteristics of Tokyo, but it was not able to replicate the miracle. The total box office settled at 125 million US dollars, becoming the It has become the largest overseas ticket warehouse of "Super Marines".
In addition to Japan and China, the United Kingdom and South Korea have become the third and fourth overseas ticket positions respectively, but the popularity of the two markets has obviously not reached the highest level.
United Kingdom, $80 million.
South Korea, $60 million.
Both figures are far behind "Frozen", and at the same time they lack that sweeping momentum in the country's annual box office rankings - no comparison, no harm; but aside from "Frozen", The box office data of "Super Marines" is still very gratifying, surpassing "Invincible Destruction King" and "How to Train Your Dragon".
In addition, the total box office of Russia, Australia and Spain has exceeded 30 million, and the overall box office situation is slightly beyond the unexpected. Performed exceptionally well -
Mexico, Germany, Brazil, Italy, France and Argentina still ranked eighth to thirteenth at the overseas box office of "Super Marines" several times at the box office, and the total box office in each region exceeded Fifteen million, the specific performance of each country and region in South America far exceeds other Hollywood works. Obviously, this superhero animated film for all ages has touched the heartstrings of the general public in Latin America.
The box office figures in small countries including Venezuela, Chile, and Uruguay are all very gratifying and eye-catching.
In the end, the total overseas box office of "Super Marines" reached 630 million US dollars. The box office figures are almost the same as the results achieved by "Edge of Tomorrow", and they are not much different from the overseas box office of "Interstellar". For an animated film, the overall performance is already very good.
The cute and cute Dabai has successfully conquered the hearts of countless audiences in 61 countries and regions on five continents, which has also made the global box office of "Super Marines" reach one billion twenty-three million US dollars. The third animated film in history to exceed the billion threshold at the global box office—the previous two were "Frozen" and "Toy Story 3", currently ranking third in film history.
As for "Shrek 2", the North American box office was outstanding, but the overseas box office was relatively inferior, and the global box office total stopped at 919 million.
In addition, "Super Marines" has also become the 23rd work in history with a global box office exceeding one billion, surpassing "Batman: The Dark Knight" and "The Hobbit", and temporarily behind "Alice in Wonderland" ", occupying the twenty-first place in the global box office box office list!
