How about this sequel? In 2017, they invaded the big screen again!
1905 movie network exclusive Hollywood’s "sequel" strategy is not a new topic in recent years. The theme is drying up day by day, the market is saturated day by day, and superhero movies that gnaw at comic books dominate the world … … From commercial blockbusters to small and medium-sized topical films, expanding the existing film universe, continuing the existing popularity and replicating the existing success have become the tacit choices of the increasingly conservative big studios.
Of course, the 36 sequel to the movie bombings in 2016 were still a bit too fierce (the number in 2015 was still 28). In this year, the Marvel Comics blockbuster "Captain America: Civil War", which is a cliche, actually continued to be very powerful. James Wan, who was tired of playing the "speed shock" series, returned to "Evocation 2", which was actually a double harvest at the box office; Of course, it is not uncommon to fail to meet expectations, such as Independence Day 2: A comeback, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Breaking Through the Shadow, and The Pirates 2; And things like Alice in Wonderland 2: Adventures in the Mirror and zoolander 2 are also on the street … …
But generally speaking, in Hollywood, where creativity is increasingly scarce, sequels are still chewy, especially in Hollywood’s foreign cultural output, sequels are an absolute fist product. At present, in a list of 27 films, sequels actually account for 18 seats!
A chart tells you that the 2017 sequel is still the fist product of Hollywood cultural output.
In order to avoid the blindness of fans, we specially selected some well-selling sequels to be released in 2017, and gave you a little reference according to the time sequence of North American release:
It must be said that this focus picture from the hand of the film network designer was once regarded as the official ultimate poster by foreign media.
Extreme Agent: The Ultimate Return, January 20th
Expected value: ★★★★☆.
If it weren’t for the release of the third film, I’m afraid everyone would have forgotten this old IP launched 15 years ago, but in fact, it’s only one year behind Vin Diesel’s other "housekeeping skills" The Fast and the Furious series.
Similar to the mistakes made in the Bourne ultimatum series, the second film in 2005 didn’t use the main hero Vin Diesel, so it became a matter of course to save the street. Fortunately, the third film got back on track this time, and Dissel finally came back, bringing Tony Jaa and Donnie Yen with him, so the biggest attraction of this film is obviously to play.
Wuli, whoever doesn’t play soy sauce!
In addition, deepika padukone, the Indian "national queen" who is said to have appeared in Fast 7 earlier, actually came to Extreme Agents. And "Speed ? ? 8" was also released this year, so it is inevitable for the audience to compare the two series. The relatively weak "Extreme Agent" can easily be regarded as the adopted son, and it lost a segment of "Speed ? ? 8" at the box office first. As for wuli Fanfan, what is certain is that he has lived in Canada, and his English lines will never be worse than some sweet ones.
Actually, I’m here to see the Indian goddess … …
Resident Evil 6: The Final Chapter January 27th
Expected value: ★★★★★
From the age of 27 to the age of 41, Milla Jovovich devoted the best years of an actress to the Resident Evil series (and perhaps its creator, director paul anderson). Now that this series is finally coming to an end, the vicissitudes of Goddess Joe’s face seem to have a somewhat tragic meaning.
But in paul anderson’s design, this one should look heavy enough to be worthy of the pursuit of thousands of games and movie powder for many years. Judging from the trailer currently exposed, Goddess Joe has to go deep into the umbrella company’s "hive" to confront the Queen of Hearts. After so many years of blaming, she has finally come up with a big move of "frying zombies", and the pattern seems to be passable. It’s just that michelle rodriguez and Colin Salmon, the black captain who died tragically in the first film, which was legendary to return before, have not been seen, and their names are not in the lineup of Cass exposed in the film. In addition, the reputation of this series has been falling all the way after the standard of the first three films is acceptable, and the quality of this one … … It’s a little worrying.
Goddess Joe is the mother of two children. What kind of bike do you want?
