In 2016, the box office of new films in each schedule is expected to break 60 billion.
1905 movie network news In 2015, China’s film market not only has 44 billion box office achievements, but also has quality films with win-win word-of-mouth box office. The fiery market environment also makes filmmakers more confident in the new year.
At the beginning of 2016, many new films were announced at the first time to grab the best schedule. Among them, there are works by established directors such as Stephen Chow, Zhang Yimou and Jing Wong, and works by new directors such as Jing M.Guo, Qing Yang and Chen Guo. Innovative themes, powerful creations, classic IP and other elements are indeed the solid backing of these films, and also make the film market in 2016 show a scene of a hundred schools of thought. There is no life without movies. Today, let’s follow the schedule and make an ultimate inventory of the movies that will meet the audience in 2016.
Winter vacation file — — Fat Dajun "Po" returns
Kung fu panda 3
On January 29th, Kung Fu Panda 3, which is highly anticipated by men, women and children, will be released in major theaters. The film will continue the plot of the previous film, centering on the story that the Dragon Warrior Panda Po meets his biological father again in the process of exploring the mystery of his life experience, discovers the whereabouts of his compatriots who have been separated for many years, and jointly fights against evil forces to save the panda family. In the previous film viewing meeting, the audience were full of praise for the strong oriental martial arts temperament in the film.
Nowadays, Kung Fu pandas can be seen almost everywhere in cinemas, subways, buses, televisions and the Internet. The series can be made into the third film one after another, not only because of the stupid "Fat Da" Po in it, but also because of the super high-level artistic special effects, consistently high-profile film quality and seamless integration of China elements. As a film suitable for the whole family to go to the cinema together, Kung Fu Panda 3 also made many stunts behind the scenes, not only inviting well-known stars such as Jackie Chan, Huang Lei and Zhang Guoli to dub, but also popular actors such as Bai Baihe, Yang Mi and Jay Chou to help out, which made fans join the movie-watching army one after another. It seems that "Po" returning with glory will surely become the most golden movie before the Spring Festival.
the mermaid
Spring Festival file — — Comedy and "family fun" are the right way.
the mermaid
At the end of 2015, when various blockbusters were engaged in tug-of-war, Stephen Chow’s new film "Mermaid" also joined in and launched an overwhelming publicity strategy. At the previous press conference, Master Xing once humorously compared the plot: "It’s a story about invincible, which is lonely and empty, and mortals may not understand it." It seems that the movie Mermaid will continue to uphold Master Xing’s nonsense humor. In the cast, Jelly Lin and Yuqi Zhang, a pair of new and old star girls, will get together in the film, while Wu Yifan, a little fresh meat who is deeply loved by the post-90s and post-00s, will play mysterious roles, and Ke Bai, the "Wang Dachui" and Kong Lianshun, the goddess of Confucius, who are deeply loved by netizens, will also compete with Deng Chao and Show Lo in the film. With so many wrists gathered in the movie Mermaid, I have to sigh that the appeal of Master Xing is no less than that of that year!
Stephen Chow doesn’t belong to a prolific director, but every film he makes will be a hit, which is not only due to the charming charm of Xing Ye himself, but also because of the excellent quality of his films. It can be said that Stephen Chow is the director who knows the audience’s psychology best among domestic film directors. He knows exactly what the audience wants to see from the film story, expression and actor selection. This time, "Mermaid" cost 150 million yuan, creating a different kind of love-hate entanglement between fantasy mermaids, which will definitely make many viewers "prosperous" when choosing films on New Year’s Day.
Monkey King Thrice Defeats the Skeleton Demon of Journey to the West
During the Spring Festival, another highly anticipated film is Monkey King Thrice Defeats the Skeleton Demon, which was created by the original crew. Monkey King Thrice Defeats the Skeleton Demon’s story has been well-known and has been revised and put on the screen for many times. The latest version of Monkey King Thrice Defeats the Skeleton Demon on a Journey to the West will inherit the characteristics of the characters in the classic text, but it has been upgraded in the richness and pattern of the story, integrating love, mentoring, magic and other elements, taking into account artistry and commerce. Aaron Kwok, the winner of two Golden Horse Awards, will play the role of the Monkey King in the film. With his handsome appearance and secret training for nearly three months, people have many expectations for the Monkey King played by Tianwang. In addition, Bai Gujing played by Gong Li is also quite interesting.
The film went to Wuxi, New Zealand and other places to shoot. In production, 3D cameras from Cameron Pace Group (CPG) were used to shoot. In terms of special effects, Hollywood’s top special effects team was invited to create it. In addition to the great production, the filming of this film also contributed to the good affection between William Feng and Aaron Kwok, the "mentoring" drama. The tacit understanding formed by them may make the audience feel the shock brought by a real and worrying mentoring relationship.
Storm riders of Macau
As another "Family Fun" film series, storm riders of Macau is also scheduled to be released on the first day of New Year’s Day, bringing together stars such as Chow Yun Fat, Andy Lau, Nick Cheung, Chris Lee, Jacky Cheung, Carina Lau, Xiang Huaqiang and Xiangzuo. The film continues the story. After Mochow committed suicide by jumping out of the plane, Yi Tianxing, an arms dealer who was infatuated with her, vowed to avenge her, so she arranged to kill Yijian Shi. Gao Fei, the sister of the gambling god, and two disciples of the gambling god, Dao Zi and Xiao Ma, joined hands with Yijian Shi to fight against the enemy.
This time, Chris Lee will not only compete with Andy Lau, the king of heaven, for the first time, but also two people will sing the movie song Gong Xi Fa Cai 2016 together, and Andy Lau will also bring a huge musical egg. He dedicated his voice and sang the "Hua Ge Edition" Cantonese magic brainwashing song "Tuner" for the first time on the Internet. It remains to be seen whether this year’s brand-new series can play the dark horse card again and create miracles after "Macau Fengyun 2" won the champion of last year’s Spring Festival after winning more than 900 million box office!
Valentine’s Day — — Sad and unique youth love
Murder is like water.
Directed by Chen Guo, the director of Hong Kong Academy Award and Taiwan Golden Horse Award, it brings together Angelababy, Ehan Juan, Juck Zhang, Rayza and other stars. The film is adapted from Cai Jun’s novel of the same name. It tells the love suspense story that Tian Xiaomai, a female white-collar worker, accidentally discovers that the reason for her amnesia and the secret of her first love are related to this case because she got her father’s notes on solving the case, so she begins to personally investigate this murder case, but is involved in it. The director not only reproduces the despair, sad feelings and helpless sense of fate in the original work, but also shapes the characters from different angles to create a fuller sense of reality. This film will lead the audience to return to the fleeting time when they feel youthful love.
Director Chen Guo’s works are always famous for being maverick, and he is good at showing the despair of the characters and the anxiety of pursuing self-identity. As its first commercial movie to enter the mainland, the director chose to challenge the theme of youth love, which perfectly presented the film’s commerciality and also integrated into the director’s personal style. On Valentine’s Day in 2016, this beautiful and thrilling love movie will surely make couples feast their eyes and gain different sensory stimuli.
Running for love
Running for Love, starring Zhang Ziyi, Eddie Peng Yuyan, Tong Liya, Zhou Dongyu, Chen Yanxi, Zhang Yi, Liang Jing, Wang Qianyuan and Wu Mochou, gathered in five domestic directors Zhang Yibai, Guan Hu, Seimi Zhang, Huatao Teng and Gao Qunshu to tell their stories related to love. The filming locations are all over Asia, Europe and America, and the five world-famous "love shrines" are also included, including Otaru, Eurasian Bridge in Turkey, route 66 in the United States, Sunshine Town in Norway and Mariana Trench in Saipan. Moreover, "pure love" has become the main theme of the film, bringing sweet sharing to Valentine’s Day.
The film not only has an ultra-luxurious star lineup, but also five couples make fans look forward to it. Zhang Ziyi and Eddie Peng Yuyan met because of "predecessor"; Wang Qianyuan MoMo Wu "Uncle with Lori" constitutes the most cute age difference; Michelle Chen holds hands with foreign boyfriends to meet Norway; Zhang Yi Liang Jing creates the most grounded couple, and Zhou Dongyu Tong Liya plays the most abusive "Lily Love".
Women’s Day File — — Blood shed’s martial arts sentiment
Ip man 3.
The third part of the series will be released in cinemas in the Mainland in March. The film was released in Hong Kong at the end of 2015, which not only gained a good box office, but also became the top ten blockbuster films of the season. Ip man 3 is still directed by Ye Weixin, starring Donnie Yen and Xiong Dailin. This time, Max Zhang, who has become a new generation of male gods in one fell swoop, will also join in. "ip man 3" will set IP Man’s later years as the background, and tell the story of a generation of heroes who eventually became a grandmaster through self-improvement after falling into various difficulties.
"ip man 3" will return to the character IP Man, which is different from the couple’s love affair in which the first two films focus on Qi Mei. This time, IP Man has to make a choice between martial arts and his wife. The structure of the whole film takes "human" as the point and "martial arts" as the line, which is nothing more than interpreting the true meaning of the word "affection". According to previous news reports, during the filming, Donnie Yen and Max Zhang were both injured. Fortunately, they were near misses. In this Women’s Day schedule, the tough guys are also fighting, using their lives to interpret a martial arts situation in blood shed for women.
Qingming file — — The loyalty of the rivers and lakes is in power, and the evil wind gathers again.
Hot pot hero
Produced by Chen Guofu, directed by Qing Yang and co-starred by Chen Kun, Bai Baihe, Qin Hao and Yu Entai, the film schedule was announced early, and posters and trailers were released one after another at the end of last year, which instantly ignited the enthusiasm of fans. However, for the content of the film, the main creators are tight-lipped and consistent. Although in the trailer, the four leading actors incarnate as "robbers" and jointly stage a story of "getting rich overnight", director Yang Qing once admitted that the trailer is just the tip of the iceberg, and the movie "Hot Pot Hero" is actually a Jianghu friendship youth film without small meat, and gives the film several labels of comedy, love, brotherhood, action and youth.
Qing Yang’s last work was in 2009, and the output was not high, but the dramatic tension of his work was obvious to all. This time, after being "persuaded" by Chen Guofu and others, Yang Qingcai decided to make a movie in his hometown of Chongqing, so there was "Hot Pot Hero". Although the publicity about the film has not yet broken out in an all-round way, it is predicted that after the film is released, there will probably be an upsurge of "Tomb-Sweeping Day going to an old classmate’s hotpot restaurant together".
Mysterious family
As a traditional festival in China, Tomb-Sweeping Day is similar to Halloween in the west in a sense because of its own temperament, and there are always many horror and thriller movies gathered every year. This year, among many films of the same type, the most notable one is The Mysterious Family, which is directed by Korean director Yu-hwan Park and starred by Ariel Lin, Jiang Wu, Chen Xiao, Kara Wai and Lan Zhenglong. It is reported that this film is based on real events and tells the story that a girl in a mysterious family was raped on the way to school, which caused the soul to be intertwined with reality.
From the line-up, this film is already higher than other rivals, and it is refreshing with an attractive story and posters of people already exposed. It is understood that the behind-the-scenes production team of this film is also well-known, and it is Hengye Film, which started as a horror film in the industry. In the Qingming Festival in previous years, they always had excellent horror and thriller movies, and this year’s "Mysterious Family" is their masterpiece. With the familiar types and the familiar schedule, this Qingming file is bound to set off another wave of terror.
