A number of new films, such as "Disappeared She", are scheduled. In the first half of 2023, good films continued.
Special feature of 1905 film network After the Spring Festival, it’s really getting more and more lively! Every day, there is good news that the new film official announces and files.On February 6,Zhu Yilong、NiNi、Janice ManA suspense crime movie starring.Lost in the StarsOfficially announced the release on June 22, and strongly attacked the Dragon Boat Festival.
The new film "Harmony and Cooperation" was also officially announced for the first time. The film tells the story of an old policeman at the grassroots level and a financial tycoon. The Beijing film met Gangpu, and such a fresh combination is also planned to meet the audience in 2023.
From February 5th, the Lantern Festival, led by the double-winner, to June 22nd, Zhu Yilong NiNi starred in "She Disappeared". In the first half of the year after the Spring Festival in 2023, up to now, nearly 40 new films have been scheduled for cinema release, and more and more films are in place one after another, making the China film market more prosperous.
Domestic new films are not stopped, and major schedules are taking shape one after another.
Taking the first half of the year as the node, the popular schedules after the Spring Festival are mainly concentrated in Qingming, May Day and Dragon Boat Festival.This year, Tomb-Sweeping Day falls on April 5th, which is Wednesday, and only has one day off, unlike the previous three-day off, so it cannot form a large-scale schedule in the film market.
However, before and after Tomb-Sweeping Day, there will be new films with bright spots. On April 1st, sci-fi comedies will be released, and on April 7th, the action film "Dragon and Horse Spirit" will be ushered in, which is enough to cover and fill the holiday gap.
From "Little Broken Ball" to "Editorial Department", there are more and more sci-fi movies in China. "Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department" is also created by the core team of the series, and is the producer, and the director is also the director of Group B.
Wandering Earth 2 is a "heavy industry". This film is "small and beautiful", which is a mixture of absurdity, black humor, road movies and other elements. It has won many honors such as Fei Mu Best Film in Pingyao International Film Festival and the most watched film focusing on the future unit in Beijing International Film Festival. Douban scored 8.7, and its reputation is extremely high.
The release day of "Dragon Horse Spirit" coincides with Jackie Chan’s birthday, and the film pays tribute to Jackie Chan’s generation of dragon and tiger martial artists. Although Jackie Chan’s action movies have continued in recent years, the last genre of kung fu comedy like this was six years ago. I hope that the Spirit of the Dragon and Horse will also be as good at the box office as Kung Fu Yoga.
The May 1st is an important schedule in the first half of the year. At present, three new films have been put in place: He, military action, family comedy and suspense crime, with completely different types for all audiences to choose from.
Last year, affected by the epidemic and other factors, the May 1st file only went up, and the box office only received nearly 300 million in five days. This year, at least from the aspects of the volume and scale of these films, the richness of types and themes, and the eye-catching degree of the cast, they have all returned to the level that they should have in May 1st.
In 2021, driven by six new films, the whole May 1st file reached the best record in box office, number of people and times. I believe that there will be more new films coming into the May Day schedule this year to make joint efforts.
Compared with the May 1st gear, the Dragon Boat Festival gear is a small gear, but it should not be underestimated. From 2016 to 2019, the total box office range of the Dragon Boat Festival is basically maintained at 700 million — 900 million, in 2019, under the influence of the beast, it soared to 912 million. This year’s "Disappeared She" took the lead in occupying the Dragon Boat Festival stall, which is undoubtedly the number one seed in the stall.
This is the latest layout of domestic brain-burning suspense movies after the success of "Tang Detective" series and "manslaughter" series, which continues the operation mode of "Chen Sicheng Producer+New Young Director". "Tang detective" attacked the Spring Festival, "manslaughter" attacked the New Year, and "Disappeared She" chose to open up a new game in the Dragon Boat Festival, and it was also able to seamlessly continue the summer file.
Last year, the film starring Zhu Yilong was also released in June, creating a dark horse miracle in one fell swoop and becoming the main force in the first half of the summer file. See Zhu Yilong again in June this year. I hope the film will continue to have good luck and conquer the audience’s reputation with high quality.
In addition, it is worth noting that the Valentine’s Day file on February 14th did not show the phenomenon of a number of love movies with the same theme, content and title in the past. There was only one this year. In the first half of the year, another couple offered a special period of 520, which is currently only occupied.
Because there are two kinds of blockbusters, Marvel superhero movies and domestic sports movies, on February 7 and February 17, it is really difficult for small and medium-sized romantic movies to get a share of more than 2.14.
These new films were released in February immediately after the Spring Festival, which kept the market hot. At the same time, some films made in central China are not hard to get hot, but rationally return to normal working days, even willing to go to relatively unpopular seasons.
The leading actor, with a total box office of HK$ 79.819 million in 16 days, surpassed and entered the second box office of China Hong Kong Film History Port. It is worth observing whether it can continue the elegance of Hong Kong after coming to the mainland on February 24th.
On March 3rd, there was a disaster adventure film starring Aaron Kwok, the three "film emperors". Put both films together to make a good start for the market in March.
As for the second half of the year, directing movies about the theme of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea has exposed the intention to enter the National Day file. In the first edition of the preview,,,,, etc. appeared, and it is said that Zhu Yilong and other stars gathered.
The film will present the new China’s "War of Founding a Nation" from a multi-line perspective in a panoramic and multi-dimensional way. From the theme to the lineup, "Great Victory" is a well-deserved blockbuster in 2023, and the official schedule has to wait for the announcement of the film.
Marvel movies have returned to the universe, and many foreign films have entered the market richly.
Marvel Comics returned to the mainland after three years, bringing the ending and opening works of the fourth and fifth stages of Marvel’s film universe, Panther 2 and Ant Man and Wasp Girl: Quantum Mania, which can be described as the first good news about foreign films in mainland cinemas in 2023.
Black Panther 2 won the only five consecutive weekend box office titles in North America in 2022, and was nominated for five Academy Awards. Four years ago, it created a 660 million box office in March in the mainland. This sequel is a little late, and it is difficult to reproduce the box office glory of that year, but it is not waiting to meet the domestic Marvel Comics powder.
"Ant Man and Hornet Woman: Quantum Frenzy" makes domestic audiences keep pace with the global release. The box office of the first two films in the series rose from 670 million to 831 million in the mainland, and the two films were released in October and August respectively, and the two schedules were hotter than this February.
Perhaps under this schedule, it is not easy for the third film of Ant Man to surpass the box office figures of the previous film. But more importantly, we can see the strongest villain in the Marvel movie universe — — Kang the Conqueror’s debut will also witness the subsequent plot trend of the fifth stage of Marvel’s film universe, as well as the foreshadowing for The Avengers’s reunion.
While stepping into a new era of Marvel movie universe, DC has also brought new films, which are released simultaneously in the mainland and North America. There is no competitor on March 17th.
In addition to these Hollywood blockbusters, outstanding works from other countries have also been booked, including the director’s new work, the all-Olympic award lineup led by "Uncle Wolf", the Indian film with 8.2 points in Douban, and the British comedy performed by the old drama bones.
There are many fans in China, and its latest animation has been announced to be introduced to the mainland, and the schedule is to be determined.
Seven years ago, it won a box office of 575 million yuan, setting a record for Japanese films at the domestic box office. After its release in Japan, Journey to Bell Bud ranked third in the box office list of Japanese domestic films in 2022. Whether it can reach a new box office peak in China is worth looking forward to.
In addition, from Part 4 to Part 9, none of the "Quick Shock" series has come to the mainland cinema, and it has been confirmed that it will be released in North America on May 19, hoping that the mainland will also debut simultaneously. There is also a classic board game IP adaptation movie, which has also been confirmed recently.
This year’s Spring Festival movie has reached the second-best record in history with a total box office of 6.758 billion yuan. I believe that this wave of movie-booking after the Spring Festival movie has just begun, and there will be more Chinese and foreign new movies on the way to book the movie, which will help China movies advance to a higher box office goal and better content quality in 2023.
