In 2024, the global film industry can be described as changeable, and all kinds of films have attracted the attention of countless audiences. Recently, the global box office list has been released. Let’s take a look at the film and television works that stand out in the box office war, and pay special attention to the China films!

Among the top ten box office in the world, the tenth is Wicked, a film adapted from Broadway musical, which made an extraordinary start with a box office score of $480 million. The film tells the legendary experience of the witch in the story of The Wizard of Oz and shows the complex relationship between good and evil. Although this film is very popular in the North American market, it seems unaccustomed in China, and it only earned more than 10 million RMB at the box office in one week, which is really embarrassing.

YOLO, in ninth place, became the only China film in the global box office list, with a box office of 496 million dollars. This film, starring Jia Ling, is very popular in this year’s Spring Festival. It tells the story of Du Leying, a nobody, who decided to find self-worth through losing weight and struggling after being bullied. Although the outside world is controversial about the quality of its production and thinks that it depends more on marketing, the success of the box office undoubtedly proves the support of the audience.

Then came the animated blockbuster Moana 2, which earned $544 million at the box office worldwide, but its performance in China was not satisfactory, with only 77 million RMB. The film continues the success of the first film and still attracts family audiences who like adventure and exploration. Unfortunately, it failed to get the due response in the China market.

Kung fu panda 4, ranked seventh, failed to continue the glory of the first three films, with a box office of $550 million. In the China market, the income of 330 million yuan is still qualified, but compared with the highlights of the previous films, it seems that there is some lack of sincerity. Although the film combines strong elements of China culture, it seems difficult to impress the audience.

The sixth place was Godzilla vs. king kong 2: The Rise of the Empire. The whole film easily locked in the market with a box office of $580 million. This film not only ensured the visual effect and shocking scenes, but also attracted a large number of fantasy and adventure audiences, and became another hot spot after the epidemic.

With the release of "Venom: The Last Dance", the box office of the film reached 588 million US dollars. Although it performed well in the China market and even earned 680 million RMB, the praise was not so satisfactory.

Next in fourth place was Dune 2, which made $782 million at the box office. Despite its mediocre performance in China, its reputation in various places has gradually improved, which has become a hot topic for fans of original works and science fiction.

And "Daddy Thief 4" re-appeared, with a box office of $1 billion, and the family audience is still the main force of its strong support. The performance in China market was also remarkable, reaching 382 million box office.

Surprisingly, Deadpool and Wolverine, which ranked second at the box office, triggered a craze with a box office of $1.329 billion and became another successful work of Marvel Comics.

In the end, the eye-catching "Brain Agents 2" locked the champion in 2024 with a box office achievement of $1.757 billion. When telling the emotional changes in adolescence, this film has captured the hearts of countless audiences with exquisite pictures and delicate emotions, although its box office performance in China is still ordinary, only 350 million RMB.

To sum up, the wonderful films in the global box office list in 2024 have their own merits. Although the performance of China film YOLO is not satisfactory in the world, it proves the position of local films in the hearts of domestic audiences. In the future, we expect more high-quality China films to break into the international market, bringing more touches and surprises to the audience!
