With a North American box office of $610 million and a global box office of $1.23 billion, "The Lion King" used its "murderous" box office to show Hollywood and the world that he is the real "Lion King".

Again, no one expected MGM's "The Lion King" to be so "ferocious", even more domineering than their own "Jurassic Park" last year. You must know that last year, the "big dinosaur" was able to "bite" the North American box office of 400 million US dollars and the global box office of 1 billion US dollars, and this year, the "big lion" directly swallowed the North American box office of 610 million US dollars and the global box office of 1.23 billion US dollars.

In this way, "The Lion King" directly made history and became the all-time box office champion in North America and the global box office champion, and directly greatly increased the original odds a lot.

So, all of a sudden, the whole of Hollywood and the whole of America is going to explode, and a cartoon has such a big box office power, it just shocks countless jaws, okay? Do you want to be so awesome? You know, you're just a cartoon.

Could it be that the spring of animated movies is coming? When did the tastes of the North American audience become so cute? You know, last year's big dinosaurs were quite thrilling, exciting, and bloody! Perhaps they watched too many exciting movies, so the North American audience began to change their tastes to watch animated movies.

As a result, several Hollywood giants such as Warner, Paramount, 20th Century Fox, and Columbia have been excited to go to the animated film market to make a lot of money.

No way, who made the recent animated movie so popular!

If it's just that "The Lion King" is so awesome, after all, it can be seen as an example, but although Disney's "The Lion of Kings" was rubbed on the ground and bloody, the box office was not low at all, and it was forced to enter the top ten of this year's North American box office. Moreover, the North American box office champion in 1992 was also an animated film - Disney's "Aladdin".

In the past three years, 3 animated films have exploded at the box office, including several small-budget animated films from MGM's Sky Studio, which have also achieved amazing box office.

Moreover, newspaper outlets such as the Los Angeles Times, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post have also sung praises for animated films. What "the spring of animated films has come", "the future of animated films is unlimited", "the era of low-cost, high-yield animated films has arrived" and other arguments continue to appear in major newspapers and TV stations, making many people think that animated films have replaced live-action movies as the mainstream.

However, this kind of professional analysis of an industrial market is not so pleasing after all, and there are really not many readers who love to watch it, and everyone is more willing to see the "entertainment to death" news. Therefore, hyping "The Lion King" has become a necessary course for all media, especially this "Battle of the Lion King" has been noisy for several years, and finally the dust has settled today, giving the final result, can you not fry it again?

"'The Lion' MGM defends his lion glory with 'The Lion King'!" – Los Angeles Times

"'The Lion King' set a record in film history, and 'The Lion of Kings' became a stepping stone!" – Chicago Tribune

"Who is the real 'Lion King', "The Lion King" deserves it!" - Washington Post-Post

……

There is no doubt that these media that sang the praises of MGM and "The Lion King" were the ones who were on this side from the beginning, and now that they have won the victory, it is natural to make a big splash.

However, even if you stand in the wrong line, you are not idle, after all, this wave of heat is not in vain!

The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Hollywood Reporter and other media that originally supported Disney and "The Lion" have thrown the blame for Disney - "Glory despite defeat" is the word they most often hang on their lips.

However, no matter what both sides say, now that the winner of this "lion king battle" has been decided, it is time for these lavish-money media to fulfill their "promises".

Jerry, a crazy lover of entertainment gossip, is also a melon-eating crowd who has been played by major media and "entertained to death". Jerry has been paying attention to this "tearing war" between MGM and Disney since 3 years ago, and even beat his husband Tom in order to watch the "big tear" between MGM and Disney on the Oprah talk show.

Yes, this Jerry is the same Jerry back then, who wanted to watch the Yankees in order to compete with his husband Tom for the right to watch the TV. (Forgotten children's shoes, please consciously make up for chapter 210 "The "Tragedy" caused by the "Tearing War")

How could Jerry, who had experienced the "battle of the lion kings" throughout the whole process, not participate in the contests organized by these newspapers and media to win prizes? Therefore, Jerry participated in the activities of the "Los Angeles Times", "The New York Times", "Washington Post" and other media to "guess the box office". As a big fan of 007, Jerry chose MGM without any hesitation, believing that MGM's "The Lion King" would be higher at the box office than Disney's "Lion King".

Therefore, during the release of the two movies "The Lion King" and "The Lion of Kings", Jerry and his husband Tom took their two children and chose to watch "The Lion King" without any accident - although Jerry has become a mother of two children in a few years, she still can't change her "gossipy" heart. The most critical thing is that after Jerry flattened Tom, Tom was also under Jerry's influence, giving up his Yankees and joining the gossip army.

Originally, Jerry and Tom only came to watch "The Lion King" because they supported MGM, which can be regarded as contributing a little bit to the box office of "The Lion King". However, I didn't expect that "The Lion King" is really good, and it actually makes Jerry and Tom feel like both adults can't stop, not to mention their two-year-old children.

"The Lion King" Simba has become the idol of Jerry and Tom's two children, in fact, countless American children have listed "The Lion King" Simba as one of their idols.

So, next, Jerry and Tom took their two children back to the theater to watch "The Lion King" two or three times, and even decided that when the "Lion King" video or new VCD disc came out, they must buy a set to collect.

Because "The Lion King" is really wonderful and good-looking, Jerry and Tom forgot that they went to see the movie to support MGM, and then they were just purely enjoying the emotion brought by the film.

When "The Lion of Kings" and "The Lion King" were drawn successively, there was no doubt that "The Lion King" beat "The Lion King" at the box office, and also set box office records in North America and around the world. In the face of this situation, Jerry also has a sense of pride, after all, in the box office of "The Lion King", their family also contributed a lot - this is the "centripetal force" brought by the sense of participation.

However, no matter what, movies are just movies, gossip is just gossip, and they can't be eaten, and Jerry just laughed happily after seeing the news. After all, after having two children, Jerry and Tom's lives have suddenly increased a lot of pressure.

In the evening, Jerry, who had worked all day, walked into the house with his two children, and as soon as he entered the room, the phone rang, and Jerry, who had not had time to take off his coat, quickly trotted over and picked up the phone.

Jerry, who was holding the phone, didn't know what was said on the other side, his face seemed to be a chameleon, puzzled for a while, surprised for a while, and overwhelmed for a while...... All kinds of emotions on her face seemed to change constantly.

"You ...... Are you sure? You're not lying to me?"

……

"Really?"

……

"Then I'll go over tomorrow, okay, okay!"

……

"Goodbye!"

Hanging up the phone, Jerry sat on the couch, not knowing what he was thinking, and for a moment he was inexplicably laughing, and the next he was wiping tears like a convulsion - people who didn't know thought she was crazy, at least Jerry's two children were startled by their mother.

"Mom, we're hungry!"

In the end, the voices of the two children "saved" Jerry from his "madness", and Jerry, who reacted, looked at the two children and took them into his arms.

"My darlings, Mommy is taking you out to dinner tonight. ”

Not long after, Tom also came home from work, and when he saw that his husband had come home, Jerry ran out and hugged Tom with a happy face. I rubbed it, and Jerry's reaction really startled Tom, and he quickly asked, "Honey, are you okay?" ”

"How could anything happen to me!" Looking at Tom touching his forehead, Jerry smiled and said, "Tom, we won the lottery." ”

Hearing Jerry's words, Tom was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "What won the lottery?"

"$100,000, a whole $100,000!" Jerry kissed Tom excitedly and said with a smile, "We can do some small business on our own." ”

Confused, Tom said incredulously, "What? $100,000? What the hell is going on?"

"Do you remember when I was in the Los Angeles Times event about predicting the box office success of The Lion King and The Lion King? ”

Hearing Jerry talk about this topic, Tom remembered that there was such a thing, and he didn't think it was right at the time, after all, how could such a good thing happen to them.

"Now the box office of "The Lion King" is crushing each other, so they are raffled among the supporters of "The Lion King", and I was drawn!"

"Really?" After listening to Jerry's explanation, Tom was almost excited to jump up, and immediately hugged Jerry, laughing, "Great, Jerry, you are really my 'lucky Jerry'." ”

Yes, Jerry was the lucky one who became the lucky reader of the Los Angeles Times' "box office contest" and received a cash prize of $100,000. At the same time, other "lucky people" were gradually revealed, and the New York Times, Washington Post, and other media that held similar events also randomly selected the "lucky one".

I have to say that Jerry is really a "lucky person", you know, the "Los Angeles Times" event has millions of participants, and more than half of them support "The Lion King". Isn't Jerry "lucky" to be drawn among so many people?
