https://weibo.com/2210606602/H4OkE0bxC I don’t know if you have paid attention to this “explosive” Weibo two days ago. The author has argued from the box office failure of Destroyer King 2 to the fact that Chinese audiences don’t like “family fun” animations. The conclusion is that Not surprisingly. I even had some feelings and recognition when I watched it for the first time, but there was always a feeling that something was wrong. It was not until the Animation Academic Party published a rebuttal article: https://weibo.com/3899327798/H5gzRkru8 that I exclaimed, damn, I seem to have been fooled. . .
Well, let's talk about my own opinion next. As for why I posted it under the comment of Invincible Destruction King 2, of course it's because I love the princess (to rub the hot spot)!
Okay, you want the short version or the long version?
The short version is: Let go of your mother's fart, if Coco is not a family carnival animation, then no animation can be called a family carnival, the argument is over, goodbye.
The long version is:
First of all, I don't know exactly what the author's definition of a so-called family-friendly animated film is, and I also don't know why Dream Xun and Zootopia are not family-friendly animations. If the subject matter is "adult", it is not naive and has practical significance. , if you have the depth of thought, then what about the brain secret service team? What about Toy Story 3? I can probably understand that the author divides animation into three categories: junior-oriented, family-oriented, and adult-oriented, but the latter two have not made a clearer distinction.
Secondly, as the author said, the family animation (in his definition) is not without success. Kung Fu Panda and Despicable Me are more than 1 billion box office. In any case, it can be called a hit. In this case, China Where does the point of view that audiences don't like family animation animations come from, just from the few domestic animations he listed that may not be named without checking the data?
Again, there should not be too many factors affecting the movie box office. The absolute number must be related to the annual movie market. Therefore, it is definitely inappropriate to compare the absolute number of movies in different years. Opponents, announcements, etc., etc. elements, I suggest comparing the box office rankings released in the same period, so in the original text, only the absolute box office data is compared, and Disney "only has two popular animated movies". The conclusion is clearly inappropriate. I didn't specifically check this part, I can make up for it when I have time.
Finally, and also the original question, as far as the matter is concerned, why the box office of Invincible Destruction King 2 is so mediocre, the reason is very simple, not to mention the Venom Fantastic Beasts, the Aquaman Spider-Man, and the schedule of an unknown person in the middle, just animation In itself, he is really not good enough. The film itself, as Disney Animation's first attempt to shoot a sequel, may be inexperienced, and there are no small problems in the narrative control and the core of the story. Of course, in the Internet world. Figurative, Princess and other Disney IPs are great highlights, but generally speaking, they are far from the heights of Zootopia and Dreamcatcher. It is also true that the box office fails, but this is the problem of the film itself, whether it is family friendly or not. It doesn't matter at all.
Finally, I would like to add some opinions on the author himself. Putting aside the question of whether he is pouring chicken soup, if he is really an insider in the animation industry, I hope he will calm down and not hang on the explosions, themes, etc. all day long. Speaking of which, a good movie and a good animation don’t choose the subject matter, the audience votes with their feet, what kind of animation is the Chinese audience like, I believe there is no simple answer, just like you can’t be in Japan because of Frozen The box office explosion shows that Japanese audiences must like princess animations, and the popularity of Pokémon in the United States shows that American audiences like game adaptation animations, but they use creativity and imagination to bring audiences a colorful world. It is the eternal ideal and goal of animators.
