Walt Disney founded the famous Disney in 1923. In the past 100 years, this giant company has owned Touchstone Pictures, Twentieth Century Films, Pixar Animation Studios and Marvel Studios. brand company.
With more than 200,000 employees worldwide, Disney is also one of the world's top 100 companies with its deep pockets due to its business scope covering film and television, travel and clothing.
However, in the face of the sudden impact of the epidemic in 2020, even Disney is deeply affected. According to statistics, in the first half of the year alone, Disney's loss was as high as 4 billion US dollars!
As far as the movie business is concerned, in 2019, Disney's three big-invested live-action remakes "Dumbo", "Aladdin" and "The Lion King" also brought it a huge box office. Revenue, the blockbuster "Frozen 2" released in November has reaped more than 1.5 billion US dollars at the box office worldwide.
It is a pity that another blockbuster work, "Mulan", which is also a live-action remake, has been delayed due to the impact of the epidemic. In order to avoid reducing losses, "Mulan" took the lead from the online platform Disney+. After the broadcast, after it was released in mainland China in September, due to the continued decline in word of mouth, the final cumulative box office did not exceed 200 million yuan!
In fact, not only "Mulan", but even the special effects blockbusters "The Fantastic Adventures of Artemis" and "The Unique Ivan" have abandoned the physical theater chain and directly chose the online platform Disney+ to broadcast.
In comparison, after the two films were broadcast, "The Unique Ivan" was far higher than "The Fantastic Adventures of Artemis" in terms of praise.
"The Unique Ivan" was launched on August 21st. From the perspective of a gorilla named Ivan, the film tells the story of the animals living in the circus, in order to gain freedom of life, they unite to go to nature s story.
The theme setting of the film is very similar to "Dumbo", the difference is that "The Unique Ivan" is not a fictional story, but is adapted through a real story.
In the voice actor column of the film, you can see the names of Angelina Jolie and Helen Mirren, and Angelina Jolie is also one of the film's producers.
Speaking of which, Disney is very good at shooting animal-themed films, especially in the combination of live-action and CG motion capture technology, which is almost perfect.
In "The Unique Ivan", even a look of an animal, especially the look of the protagonist Ivan the gorilla, is very touching and has a feeling of "emotional", coupled with the extremely anthropomorphic expression of the body, Even this seemingly peaceful story can still move the audience to tears.
This is also a unique habit of Disney, as some netizens said: In this film, you can feel the warmth, kindness, gratitude, and a steady stream of positive energy.
