Cost 1.30 billion, North American debut 220 million, Chinese box office 67 million, audience gave Marvel a lesson
Marvel has finally regained a game in the North American market, but the Chinese market still needs to wait for the next savior.

Although it set the worst first-day box office record for Marvel’s summer debut, it is actually good for this team composed of Marvel motley players to achieve such results. It is expected that the film’s North American first weekend box office will reach 74 million – 79 million US dollars, and the global first weekend is expected to reach 175 million US dollars. What makes Marvel confident to recover the production cost of 180 million US dollars is the film’s good reputation in North America.

Not only far better than “Team America 4”, in the fifth stage of Marvel’s works, the word of mouth can be tied with “Deadpool and Wolverine”. But the mainland trend of the film is not optimistic at present. The film was released in mainland China for four days, and the box office was only 67 million. At present, the cat’s eye predicts that the total box office is 104 million, and the cost is 1.30 billion. The first day of North America 220 million, and the Chinese box office 67 million.

When the winter soldier in the film rode a motorcycle under the sunset and dreamed of the cool combo of “Team America 3”, bringing the return of the old Avengers, the mainland market did not seem to have a trace of warmth.

Is it the reason of the movie itself, or the drag of Marvel’s word-of-mouth in recent years? Today we will talk about this “Thunder Strike Team”. One or three “surprises” In short, “Thunder Strike Team” is a large collection of Marvel’s miscellaneous heroes, or it can be said that it is a large collection of Marvel leftovers. The story opens with the second-generation Black Widow Yelena being sent to a remote military base by CIA Director Valentina to do dirty work, and as a result, she became the target of someone else’s assassination. Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson and “Winter Soldier” Bucky was looking for evidence to bring down Valentina, and was also attracted.

Cost 1.30 billion, North American first day 220 million, Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Cost 1.30 billion, North American first day 220 million, Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson After finding caught in the death trap set by Valentina, the “lowest match” super British team decided to carry out a death mission – rescue the mysterious man named Bob in the sentinel plan planned by Valentina, that is, the combat ceiling of the Marvel universe – the sentinel that can turn people into shadows. Under the leadership of the Winter Soldier, this team has no superpowers and no protagonist aura. In order to uncover the true face of Valentina, they finally entered the void space of the sentinel that has been blackened into nothingness. Cost 1.30 billion, the first day 220 million in North America, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson cost 1.30 billion, the first day 220 million in North America, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson experienced a Marvel version of the invasion of brain cell war, and finally in a love hug, everyone together to save Bob’s personality back, and saved New York and the people. But the cunning Valentina said everything as their own credit, and called this group of motley army their secret to create a new Avengers team. Cost 1.30 billion, the first day of the North American 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson cost 1.30 billion, the first day of the North American 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson The main story line of the movie is very simple, the director obviously learned the lessons of the previous Marvel movies, no crazy main line Easter eggs, no embarrassing feelings, but a relatively complete story of a “loser alliance” that is basically independent of the main line. The movie aimed at the inner dark side of several Marvel edge superheroes, and the final David Fincher psychological thriller-style finale saved the world by saving himself. No matter how the story is told, at least it returned to Marvel’s early style of focusing on character arcs and teamwork, so that the loser alliance collided with a good chemistry. Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of the North American 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson 1.30 billion, the first day of the North American 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson. This is also the first surprise of the movie to the audience. The second surprise of the movie is that it finally bid farewell to the special effects and returned to the relatively real action scene. Cost 1.30 billion, the first day 220 million in North America, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson cost 1.30 billion, the first day 220 million in North America, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson After all, the film setting is a group of Marvel “villains” composed of a motley team, they are not Marvel universe amazing villain, at most it is a player who plays serum, blocking a car with his body is already very cool. Cost 1.30 billion, the first day 220 million in North America, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson cost 1.30 billion, the first day 220 million in North America, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson, which also made the director have to return the action scene to the style of the American team series, although only the winter soldier road chase that can be regarded as shooting the momentum of the “American team 2, 3” action scene, but at least the way is right. Cost 1.30 billion, the first day 220 million in North America, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson cost 1.30 billion, the first day 220 million in North America, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson worth mentioning There is also the opening of the Thunder Strike Team members melee, the fight shot neatly, one breath explained the appearance of Yelena, red guard, ghost, American spy, but also showed everyone’s fighting characteristics, it is a brain. Cost 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, China box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson cost 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson and the finale Although the lack of a Marvel-style big scene ending, but the protagonist group in the illusion of the void world repeatedly shuttle, crack the sentinel all kinds of deception, live Marvel blockbuster shot out of the secret room escape feeling, suspense brain burn also render the thriller atmosphere to the highest, with the way to save money to bring the audience’s emotions to the peak. Cost 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson cost 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson to do big things with small money. The third surprise of the movie, is not bad fringe team portrayal. After watching superhero movies for so many years, this group of people is really the worst “fringe villain”. Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Second generation widow sister combat effectiveness is average, winter soldiers can be counted, but the winter soldiers who bid farewell to berserk mode are not as effective as before, American spies are simply fired Captain America, but this group of people have one thing in common, that is, they are good at talking. And the mouth is playing, the audience also remembers these characters. David Haber’s red guard is a stupid and hot-blooded narcissistic uncle, and the name of the Thunder Secret Service is what he insists on. Cost 1.30 billion, North American first day 220 million, Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson 1.30 billion, North American first day 220 million, Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson The American spy is the grumpy version of the American team, playing harder than the new American team in “American Team 4”, blocking bullets is really handsome, cold humor is also a must. Cost 1.30 billion, North American first day 220 million, Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Cost 1.30 billion, North American first day 220 million, Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson
The most exciting is Pew’s role of Yelena, behind the surface of stubbornness, loneliness, mourning, fear and longing for family ties. Costing 1.30 billion, the first day in North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Costing 1.30 billion, the first day in North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Marvel’s old fans, should like these down-to-earth loser alliance image. Even if they save New York and solve the Sentinel crisis in the end, it is still the loser alliance used by others, which is also the best place for the movie. Two or three “regrets” The above are three highlights in my favorite “Thunder Team”, which are enough to show the determination of Marvel’s main creators to try to get rid of the decline. But these highlights alone are not enough to support the whole movie. The shortcomings visible to the naked eye in the film have become the key to affecting the box office in the mainland of the film. Costing 1.30 billion, the first day in North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson 1.30 billion, the first day in North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson The biggest controversy is that the film is too addicted to literary dramas and mouth-slapping. Compared with the previous movies that were so boring that people felt like eating flies, all the mouth-slapping is indeed the advantage of this film. But Yelena and the red guard, the winter soldier to the crowd, and Yelena to the sentinel, said a little too much. When I watched it, I was a little skeptical whether I was watching a Marvel movie. The other side of the upgrade of the literary drama is the shrinkage of the action drama, but the audience is here to see the fight, not the chicken soup of the soul of Marvel’s failure. Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson and really want to talk about the nonsense of the fringe, the film is not the opponent of the “Guardians of the Galaxy”, the whole movie, like a special effects low version of “Avengers”, or the silver guard of the low version of the mouth cannon. What’s worse is that although the film spent a lot of pen and ink about the female protagonist Ye Lianna’s journey, and also tried to combine this literary drama with the finale Sentinel, but for a super British movie, this long literary drama is still unavoidably long and boring. Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson The second controversial point of the movie is that the big villain Sentinel is not oppressive enough, and the offline is too simple. Cost 1.30 billion, North American first day 220 million, Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson cost 1.30 billion, North American first day 220 million, Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Sentinel This collection of “anti-hero” “psychological trauma” “US government conspiracy” and other elements of the character, originally has great potential to be tapped, but eventually became the catalyst for the ending war. Although the director is interested in describing the character’s past, it is not enough to make the audience resonate with him. Cost 1.30 billion, the first day in North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson cost 1.30 billion, the first day in North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson and even as a tool to the villain, the film’s presentation of its “power of a million suns” is still too weak. “Talk therapy” offline is somewhat sloppy. The third point of controversy in the film is the old-fashioned plot. Because the combat effectiveness of the characters in this film is generally weak, the main creator obviously wants to re-enact the “Captain America 2” -style espionage + actual combat mode, without over-reliance on special effects. But if you don’t watch special effects, then the audience’s demand for the plot will inevitably increase. Compared to the previous bad Marvel movies, the plot of this film has definitely improved, especially the Marvel version of invading brain cells is a little new, but the film crisis and solution are still a little too simple. The essence of the story is still the set of hurting Chaoying to face the dark side of her heart, which is not very new, and Valentina’s conspiracy line is even more sloppy. For viewers who want to see new content and new stories, the storyline of this film is still the old routine of Chaoying’s flowing works. Compared with Marvel itself, it is of course more than better, but it is really lackluster and lacks innovation. Cost 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Cost 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson In the end, Marvel movies are now photographed, all kinds of story routines The audience has seen, it is difficult to bring surprises like “Team America 2”. Cost 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Cost 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Now our mainland audiences have long lowered their expectations for the Marvel series, thinking that as long as they can watch a lively. But Marvel, whose movie is also decreasing, what attracts old fans and new fans? At least “Thunder Strike Force” did not give the correct answer. This is also the three regrets left by “Thunder Strike Force”. Third, Marvel movies, the universe of success and failure? At this point, we are back to the old topic of “Marvel movie aesthetic fatigue”. It can be said that Marvel super British movies are the ultimate industrialization of Hollywood movies. Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Since the opening of the mainland market in the 1990s, Hollywood blockbusters have cultivated a fixed audience in the mainland, making China the second largest ticket warehouse for Hollywood blockbusters. But after 2000, with the depletion of film ideas, Hollywood had to explore new profit models, which led to the rise of super British movies. Through the “TV series movie” model produced by the assembly line, Marvel movies once harvested a lot of box office around the world, reaching their peak in “Avengers 3 and 4”. Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson But after the peak is the ebb, the Marvel movies that have monopolized the market for more than ten years are not only too powerful to affect the vitality of other types of movies. More directly, the Marvel movies themselves have become too big to die. Entering the fifth stage of the Marvel movie, the plot of many works seems to be barely pieced together, and the audience is most concerned about the Easter egg. The result is that the universe is the universe of success, and the universe is the universe of failure. Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of the North American 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson 1.30 billion, the first day of the North American 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson because the TV movie universe itself is also a double-edged sword. If you can continue to introduce high-quality superheroes such as Iron Man, Thor, Team America, and Spider-Man as in the first three stages, then not only will the Easter egg be wonderful, but a blockbuster with many heroes like The Avengers will also have unparalleled market appeal. But if the new film pounces straight, the entire fourth and fifth stages, without creating a superhero as loud as Iron Man, the film universe will instead form a threshold and burden for viewing movies. The more the audience did not watch the previous movie, the more difficult it is to invest in the new film, and the more they do not want to make up lessons. The result is a vicious circle. Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson like “Thunder Strike Team”, not only to “Black Widow” did not write the Yelena people to make up the pot, but also to put the ghost, the American spy re-packaged and launched, but also to pave the way for “Avengers 5”, the task is so heavy, the current quality is not bad. But for Marvel, where Kevin Feige returns, there are not many opportunities left. From 2024 to 2026, in addition to “Deadpool and Wolverine”, “Captain America 4” and “Thunder Team”, the next thing to count on is this year’s “New Fantastic Four” and “Avengers 5”, where Downey returns as Dr. Doom next year. Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson. In a sense, if Marvel’s ace “Avengers 5: Day of Doom” can’t win, it’s really the day of destruction of Marvel movies. “Thunder” mainland and North American markets are both ice and fire, Chinese audiences have taught Hollywood a lesson in the future of the Marvel Universe to be solved, but the most urgent problem for Hollywood in the mainland market is that more and more Hollywood blockbusters are not working in the mainland. Let’s say that Hollywood’s last “My World Movie” that swept the world has reached an astonishing $900 million at the global box office, but it has been released in the mainland for 31 days, and the box office is only 198 million. Cost 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Cost 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson If the Hollywood blockbusters ten years ago can still go sideways in the mainland market, then in the “Wandering Earth” and other domestic movies have reached or even exceeded the Hollywood production level, the new generation of audiences has been impossible to maintain special preference for Hollywood movies. This is the root cause of Hollywood movies “not working” in the mainland. Another reason that cannot be ignored is the collective aesthetic degradation of Hollywood movies. Even “Thunder” does not blindly pursue “political correctness” of the film, for young audiences without much feelings, it is just another assembly line operation of the passing level of the film, only suitable for passing the time. Costing 1.30 billion, North American first day 220 million, China box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Costing 1.30 billion, North American first day 220 million, China box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson But the new generation of audiences who have seen it, the film aesthetic has been level with “Nezha 2”, if not like “Nezha 2” to surprise the audience of the film, why watch? After the Thunder Strike Force, there are still a few ace cards in Hollywood this year, such as the latest “Fire and Ember” in Cameron’s “Avatar” series, “Mission Impossible 8”, the new version of “Superman” and Jackie Chan’s “Kung Fu Dream”. And next year’s “Avengers 5”, which the whole Hollywood is looking forward to. Can the Hollywood blockbuster with increasingly low box office appeal really turn over with these yesterday’s ace cards? Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Costing 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Hard to say. If you think of the whole Hollywood as a Marvel movie series, they are obviously still immersed in the myths created by their past box office superheroes. The past success experience has become the curse of Marvel and Hollywood today. Costing 1.30 billion, the North American debut 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson Costing 1.30 billion, the North American debut 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson They don’t want to save themselves? Maybe like the loser alliance in the film, they don’t know how to save themselves. For the Hollywood blockbusters and Marvel movies that are losing ground in the mainland market, what is needed now may be a real superhero like Iron Man, which costs 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson 1.30 billion, the first day of North America 220 million, the Chinese box office 67 million, the audience gave Marvel a lesson But what they have now is only the Thunder Strike Team composed of the miscellaneous super heroes.

“Thunder Strike Team” has a good reputation at the box office, and Marvel has returned to its peak. It is actually the best work after “Avengers 4”
After the “destruction” of “Eternals”, “Ant-Man 3”, “Captain Marvel 2” and “Captain America 4”, Marvel fans around the world have finally welcomed the Marvel superhero blockbuster that can make them feel relieved. “Thunder Strike” is the second superhero blockbuster released by the “Marvel Cinematic Universe” this year, and is known as “the outpost of” Avengers 5 “.” Thunder Strike “gathers a group of third-rate heroes such as the second generation of Black Widow, Winter Soldier, American spy, impersonator, ghost and red guardian, who together form the lowest team in Marvel history and fight against the strongest villain Sentinel. Although at the beginning, most audiences were skeptical of this film, believing that it would become a bad movie with low reputation and low box office like “Captain America 4”, the result was surprising. Surprisingly, after the film landed in mainland theaters, the overall response was not bad, and it had also received collective praise from many foreign film critics. On the Rotten Tomatoes website, which has a viewing vane overseas, “Thunder Strike Team” has a freshness of 88%, with a total of 113 film critics participating, showing strong reviews. More importantly, domestic audiences have also said that this is Marvel’s best work after “Avengers 4”. Many fans expressed their love for the film after watching it. Someone commented: “If you are a Marvel fan and have been extremely disappointed with Marvel’s works, then Thunder Strike Team can definitely give you back hope.” Such comments undoubtedly injected a shot in the arm for Marvel fans who were looking forward to it. With good word of mouth, “Thunder Strike Team” also created a considerable box office performance in mainland cinemas. On the first day of its release, “Dumpling Queen”, which beat Ma Li, ranked in the top of the sun. With “Thunder Strike Team” back to the peak of Marvel, fans are waiting for the arrival of “Avengers 5”. “Thunder Strike Team” is not only the final work of the fifth phase of the “Marvel Cinematic Universe”, but also the outpost of the future “Avengers 5”. With the opening of the sixth phase, fans are looking forward to the upcoming “Avengers 5” on May 1 next year. The cast of characters in this film is very strong. Robert Downey Jr. will play the role of the great villain Dr. Doom, and many popular Marvel superheroes such as Thor, Invisible Woman, Black Panther, and Shang Qi will also make appearances. With the advance of “Thunder Strike” and such a strong cast of characters, the future “Avengers 5” will definitely achieve a box office explosion, and the goal of more than 2 billion US dollars seems to be no problem. Marvel fans can finally look forward to this superhero feast again. Whether it is the plot of the film or the performance of the characters, fans hope to see a new Marvel Universe show

“Captain America 4” is about to be released, with a box office of 3 billion, basically returning the cost.
Captain America 4 is about to be released, with a box office of 3 billion yuan, basically recouping Its costs!
In recent years, the box office performance of Marvel superhero movies has been like a roller coaster, sometimes high and sometimes sluggish. In 2021, Doctor Strange 2 was dazzling, with a global box office of nearly $1 billion, creating a box office miracle. However, by 2023, Ant-Man 3 and Captain Marvel 2 were hit hard. The former’s global box office was only just over 400 million US dollars, while the latter’s performance was even more dismal, with only $206 million, resulting in heavy losses for the film. The box office of these two films fell, causing the “Marvel Cinematic Universe” to fall into a low point.
However, in 2024, with the return of two popular characters, Deadpool and Wolverine, the “Marvel Cinematic Universe” will regain its glory. That year, the global box office of Deadpool and Wolverine, co-starred by Deadpool and Wolverine, reached $1.338 billion, won the global annual box office runner-up, and broke the global R-grade film box office record. However, the next “Captain America 4” pulled the “Marvel Cinematic Universe” into reality. This film is a superhero blockbuster launched by Marvel Pictures for the first time this year. It was released simultaneously in China and North America in mid-February, but due to the low quality, the audience’s poor evaluation, and the opening performance was poor. At present, the domestic box office of Captain America 4 is only 104 million yuan, while the cumulative box office in North America is 199 million US dollars, and the total global box office is about 412.8 million US dollars, equivalent to 3 billion yuan. Considering its cost of $180 million, this performance almost reached the break-even and did not lose money.
Nevertheless, the global box office of 3 billion yuan seems to be the pinnacle of Captain America 4, because the film is about to be released and logged into streaming platforms. Recently, official sources have revealed that “Captain America 4” will be launched on streaming on the 15th of this month, and a 4K Blu-ray physical disc will be released on May 13, which is less than a week away from now. At that time, the film will launch a streaming media platform and 4K physical discs, which may bring a wave of profits to the film.
