Chapter 1155
"The magical Hua Guolin once again brought us a different feeling, fed up with those naΓ―ve and young animated movies, and finally found a heart-warming animated movie, I want to watch it again!"
"The most touching thing is not that the humans on the ship are saved, but that WALL-E can gently overthrow this conformist world. β
With his clumsy movements and lackluster language, Vali explained what romance and love were! β
Not only the Internet, but this time the Western media also gave "Robot Wall-E" a very high evaluation.
"It's a great movie, yes, it's the first time I've used great to describe a Chinese film, and it's the same one of the best movies of the summer, love at first sight seems so fake a lot of the time, but "Wall-E" brings a rightful touch. β
"The Doomsday Wasteland, the starry sky, it's beautiful and thought-provoking, and what's even more rare is that Vali and Eva, their lack of language, but the wonderful interaction they have, it's probably love. β
Of course, regardless of the film reviews, the most important thing is the box office!
On the first day, the box office of "Robot Wall-E" in North America directly blinded the eyes of countless people.
Because the animated films of Sanle Animation have made foreign distributors make a lot of money, they naturally won't pay attention to "Robot Wall-E".
The results speak for themselves.
The first-day box office in North America, $38 million!
On Saturday, it closed at 48 million, and on Sunday, it fell back to 37 million!
The box office directly exceeded 100 million on the first weekend!
It topped the North American box office in its opening weekend.
In contrast, the treatment of "Arrow of the Sun" can be said to be a bit sad.
Because the length of the film is too long, it is not very friendly to the distributor and the theater.
This is especially true for the audience, if it is a foreign film adaptation with countless fans, it may be better, but this is a Chinese film, and few viewers can stick to it.
So, the results speak for themselves.
"Arrows of the Sun" grossed ...... on its first day in North America Not to mention the first-day box office, the distribution has encountered layers of obstacles, because no distributor is willing to give the film too many screens, according to their words, the film is too long, and they are worried that the audience will not be able to watch it at all!
However, "Arrow of the Sun" still received a lot of box office in Southeast Asia, but compared with "Robot Wall-E", it was compared again.
In fact, it's very simple, not that "Arrow of the Sun" is not good enough, but when the two films are about the same, short and concise films like "Robot Wall-E" are obviously more popular with theaters.
Being able to bring them more profits will naturally lead to a bias.
In fact, at this time, Cao Yang can be said to have repented of his intestines.
"Arrow of the Sun" can also be said to be unlucky, and it has been avoided by other blockbusters, but I didn't expect that because I was cheap for a while, I ended up provoking the evil thing "Robot Wall-E".
There is no harm if there is no contrast!
Wal-E's performance abroad is as always, and the film has won the weekly box office championship of the film schedule in many countries, but "Arrows of the Sun" is really not satisfactory.
Although, some professional film critics abroad have quite a good evaluation of "Arrow of the Sun", calling Li Zhongzheng a real master.
But there is no use, "Arrow of the Sun" itself cannot be a literary film, these professional reputations are good, which often means that the market is the opposite.
In fact, in the second week, the decline of "Robot Wall-E" was still very healthy, and it was able to maintain a weekday box office of over 100 million, but "Arrow of the Sun" was not, and the daily box office fell directly below 100 million.
Although "Arrow of the Sun" can still make money, this duel is obviously a mess.
In this regard, on the contrary, the domestic media are relatively calm, Cao Yang looks down on animated movies, but they won't, after all, this is not the first time.
I can only sigh again that Sanle is still the No. 1 animation company in China, and Lin Xiao is still the invincible Lin Xiao.
However, the fly in the ointment is that although the peripheral sales of "Robot Wall-E" are good, they are far from being compared with "Kung Fu Panda" and "Despicable Me", that is, the Minions in "Despicable Me".
In fact, this is normal, after all, "Robot Wall-E" is strictly an adult-oriented animated film, and it is not so friendly to young children.
And Vali and Eva are not as likable as the Minions, and the results are self-evident, but this still makes Sanle profitable.
Every time Sanle's animated movie is released, it can bring a wave of anime fever.
In fact, many people are jealous of Sanle, because Sanle has incomparable advantages in China and in the animation industry.
Although other companies have also poached some of Sanle's technical team members, the result is tragic, because they found that in terms of technology, in fact, most of them can do what Sanle can do.
And the main core reason why Sanle has been able to win many battles is Lin Xiao.
The original "Kung Fu Panda", then "Despicable Me", plus the current "Robot Wall-E".
In fact, animated films are not at all less risky than live-action films, on the contrary, animated films, in many cases, are absolutely high-risk projects.
Because the investment is huge, and the production cycle is very long, even for mature teams.
If you win, you will make a lot of money, but if you lose, you will definitely lose all your money.
It can be said that in terms of animated films, Sanle Animation is definitely an authority in China.
This time, "Robot Wall-E" won even more, and "Arrow of the Sun", which was directed by Li Zhongzheng for five years, is even more amazing.
If it is said that now big-budget movies are becoming more and more afraid to take risks, and most of them are adapted to avoid risks, then in terms of animated films, the three series produced by Sanle Animation are all original.
And originality means uncertainty and adventure, and the investment in "Robot Wall-E" is not low at all.
Many people think that "Robot Wall-E" and "Arrow of the Sun" seem to be completely weak and strong, but in reality?
The production cost of "Robot Wall-E" is not lower than that of "Arrow of the Sun".
Such an investment, once it fails, can definitely shake the fate of a company.
So that's even more rare.
And although "Robot Wall-E" is not as good as the previous two movies in terms of peripherals, it is also not to be underestimated.
Especially during the release of "Robot Wall-E", the sales of various peripheral products were definitely very good.
This has also made more and more attention be paid to animated films.
