Since the previous work is the current global film box office champion, most viewers are more concerned about what the box office of "Avatar 2" can achieve in the end. Can
surpass the first part? Or is it not even half the level of the first part?
Of course, given that many of the movies of Cameron are for the stamina, and "Avatar 2" has just been released not long ago, it is too early to discuss these things.
So this time I will change the topic, Laosai will take you to see, among the previous box office champions in major film markets around the world, which one has dominated the longest time? Which movie was taken off the throne?
First, let’s take a look at Hollywood ’s base camp, local to North America.
939, "Gone with the Wind" was released in North America, and then directly swept across the United States. In the next year, 1940, it broke the film box office record in North America. How long has this record been maintained after
? The answer is 20 years.
In the past 20 years, "Gone with the Wind" has been re-released in various ways. What's amazing is that as an old film, it is very popular every time it is re-released, which also makes other movies unable to get close to its box office record.
By 1956, "Gone with the Wind" finally ushered in a movie that threatened its position, which is " Ten Commandments ".
The Ten Commandments of that year caused a sensation as soon as they were released in North America, and the box office record was directly close to "Gone with the Wind". After 4 years, the movie finally completed its historical mission and killed "Gone with the Wind".
However, ironically, not long after the Ten Commandments won the throne, "Gone with the Wind" was re-released again, and this time he grabbed the first place again.
Then it was the European market turn.
There is a saying that "the United Kingdom and the United States are one", which is not necessarily accurate, but it is indeed appropriate to put it in terms of box office records.
is also "Gone with the Wind" and also sat on the throne in 1940.
In 1958, "South Pacific" was released, and then it was 4 years old, and it finally surpassed "Gone with the Wind" in 1962. The time spent on
record is similar to the time spent by the challenger, and it is also magical.
France is amazing.
In 2008, after the local comedy movie " Welcome to the North" was released, it became the box office champion in film history with an absolute advantage.
A year later, "Avatar" came to challenge and was defeated.
1 years later, Marvel's " Avengers 4" brought a bunch of heroes such as Iron Man to challenge, but was still beaten down.
So, "Welcome to the North" still has firmly sat at the top of the box office of French movies for 14 years, and since the European market has generally developed to the ceiling, even if Cameron and Marvel cannot win, it can be seen that this throne will not change for a long time.
Germany is relatively simple, in a word, Titanic really becomes a giant ship that never sinks here.
Since taking the position of NO.1 in 1998, no matter what movie it is, it has no way to sink the ship. Among them, "Avatar" is the closest, but it is also a bit of a sigh of relief.
The record of the big ship has been maintained for 24 years. According to the current situation, it will continue to be maintained.
Although Russia is also a member of Europe, the situation is completely opposite to Britain, France and Germany.
The film market in this country is still far from the ceiling. It is still considered a developing and developing market. Its characteristic is that the record of each box office champion may not be broken for a long time.
However, Russia is an exception. After its release in 2009, "Avatar" won a box office of more than 3.5 billion rubles, becoming the undisputed box office champion in film history.After
, challengers such as " defeated Munich " and "Avengers 4", clearly have the advantages of rapid market development, but they can never surpass the little blue man.
Currently, the record of "Avatar" has been maintained for 13 years. It can be seen that this record should continue to last for a long time.
Finally, let’s take a look at the final Asian market.
In South Korea, the longest-running movie is "007: Love from Russia", which broke the record when it was released in 1965.
It must be said here that 007 was the world's most influential film and television IP, and its status is similar to that of the Marvel Universe today. But you must know that 007 did not have the various information media today. They achieved this achievement simply by relying on telegraphs, discs and other media. From this perspective, 007 is really amazing.
07 sat on the throne of South Korea for 12 years before being surpassed by the local movie "Woman in Winter".
In Japan, the box office champion who has been the longest-timer is " Chihiro and Chihiro " released in 2001. The record of
has been maintained for a full 19 years, and then it is an animated film, which is "Demon Slayer: Infinite Train". Although many people think that "Demon Slayer" cannot be compared with "Spirited Away", it is undeniable that "Demon Slayer" has indeed greatly increased the box office record of Japanese movies to the greatest extent.
Not only that, "Demon Slayer" was the global box office champion back then. This was the first and only time that an Asian film in film history surpassed Hollywood to win the global box office champion. This achievement is quite terrifying.
Singapore is quite special, and this market has two box office champions that have maintained their dominance for 9 years.
982, Jet Li's " Shaolin Temple " won the top spot in Singapore. Until 1991, Cameron made a brilliant debut with his "Terminator 2" and snatched the crown.
998, Cameron's "Titanic" set a new record. Nine years later, the Marvel hero Spider-Man, a subsidiary of Sony Pictures, used his third solo film to completely knock the ship to the bottom of the sea of Atlantic .
Finally, we China.
In the mainland, "Titanic" released in 1998 achieved a box office of more than 300 million yuan, setting a record that year.
Of course, the box office of movies in mainland China is now more than ten billion, and the number of more than 300 million is just a fraction.
But what you need to know is that it was in the 1990s, and the domestic economy had not yet developed.
The box office record of the big ship has been maintained for 11 years. Who brought it down?
998+11=2009, a movie in 2009? Needless to say, it must be "Avatar"!
Congratulations, the answer is wrong, the correct answer is "Transformers 2".
After all, as the most popular Hollywood IP in China at that time, car robots are still very powerful.
Other markets that have not been mentioned are many of Cameron's two movies. Either the ship has maintained the record for 11/12 years and was broken by "Avatar", or it has been maintained until now; or it has maintained the record since "Avatar" won the throne.
It can only be said that director Cameron has indeed created two miracles.
