Once believed to be merely a children's favorite, animated films have "grown up", becoming the most commercially successful genre in China and making 2025 the highest-grossing year on record for the category.曾被认为只是儿童最爱的动画电影已然“长大成人”,成为中国最成功的商业类型片,并使2025年创下该类型片票房收入最高纪录。As of Tuesday, propelled recently by Disney's blockbuster Zootopia 2, the box office revenue of animated movies in China has reached 25.06 billion yuan ($3.56 billion), nearly 270 percent higher than in 2024, according to industry tracker Maoyan Pro.据猫眼专业版数据显示,截至周二,在迪士尼爆款动画《疯狂动物城2》的近期推动下,中国动画电影票房收入已达250.6亿元(约合35.6亿美元),较2024年同期增长近270%。Winning over Chinese theatergoers for various reasons — including the new character Gary De'Snake, deliberately released during the Chinese zodiac's Year of the Snake — the sequel to Zootopia 2 ,which was a hit in 2016, has grossed over 3.8 billion yuan since its premiere on Nov 26. The figure has surpassed its North American earnings of $283 million, making China the film's most lucrative market worldwide.《疯狂动物城》续集自11月26日上映以来,累计票房已突破38亿元人民币。这部2016年大热动画的续作凭借多重因素赢得中国观众青睐——包括在蛇年特别推出的新角色“加里·蛇”。该数字已超越其在北美地区2.83亿美元的票房收入,使中国成为该片全球最赚钱的票仓。Zhi Feina, a film researcher at the Chinese National Academy of Arts, said the overwhelming popularity of Zootopia 2 demonstrates the dynamic and huge potential of China's movie market, proving that appealing content — regardless of its cultural background — can always find a large fan base in the country.中国艺术研究院电影研究员支菲娜表示,《疯狂动物城2》的火爆上映充分展现了中国电影市场的蓬勃活力与巨大潜力,证明了具有吸引力的内容,无论其文化背景如何,总能在中国赢得庞大的观众群体。Currently, the biggest contributor to this year's animation box office bonanza is still Ne Zha 2, the runaway hit sequel to the 2019 filmNe Zha, which set the previous record for the genre. Having earned over 15.4 billion yuan on the Chinese mainland, Ne Zha 2 alone has accounted for 30 percent of this year's total box office — including all live-action movies.目前,今年动画票房狂潮的最大贡献者仍是《哪吒之魔童降世2》,这部续作延续了2019年首部《哪吒》创下的动画票房纪录。仅《哪吒之魔童降世2》在中国大陆就斩获154亿元票房,占今年总票房的30%。该数据涵盖所有真人电影。The first Ne Zha film was released in 2019 and earned 5 billion yuan, making that year the highest-grossing ever for animated films, until Ne Zha 2 set the new record.首部《哪吒》电影于2019年上映,创下50亿元票房纪录,使该年成为动画电影票房最高的一年,直到《哪吒之魔童降世2》刷新了这一纪录。Following Ne Zha 2 and Zootopia 2 , the third highest-grossing animated film this year is Nobody, a feature-length spinoff of one episode from the 2023 animated series Yao-Chinese Folktales, produced by Shanghai Animation Film Studio — a pioneer since the late 1950s in introducing unique Chinese animation aesthetics to the world. By reflecting the career stress and dreams of ordinary people, the movie has struck a chord with young audiences, earning 1.719 billion yuan.继《哪吒之魔童降世2》和《疯狂动物城2》之后,今年票房第三高的动画电影是《浪浪山小妖怪》。这部由上海动画电影制片厂出品的长篇动画,改编自2023年动画系列《妖怪故事》中的一个单元故事。自1950年代末以来,该制片厂始终致力于向世界展示独特的中华动画美学。影片通过映射普通人的职场压力与梦想,引发年轻观众共鸣,累计票房达17.19亿元。The fourth highest-grossing animated movie is Boonie Bears: Future Reborn, the 11th installment of the long-running Boonie Bears franchise, which was launched in 2012. Centering on the titular bear siblings' new adventure in a futuristic world, the film earned 821 million yuan.票房第四高的动画电影是《熊出没·重启未来》,这是自2012年推出的长寿动画系列《熊出没》的第十一部作品。影片围绕熊家族兄妹在未来世界的新冒险展开,最终收获8.21亿元票房。Other animated hits include The Legend of Hei 2, centering on a cat demon capable of shape-shifting into a young boy, and Curious Tales of a Temple, adapted from Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) novelist Pu Songling's masterpiece Liaozhai Zhiyi (Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio). The overall ticket revenue from animation has accounted for 49 percent of this year's total box office, according to Maoyan.其他动画热门影片还包括《罗小黑战记2》,讲述了一只能变身为少年男孩的猫妖的故事;以及改编自清代(1644-1911)小说家蒲松龄名著《聊斋志异》的《聊斋奇谭》。据猫眼数据显示,动画电影票房收入占今年总票房的49%。Shen Wei, a concept artist for theNe Zha franchise, said the rise of Chinese animation is built on the progress that domestic animators have made in recent years. "In the past, animated works were thought to attract only young audiences, especially children. But with advances in both storytelling and animation techniques, Chinese animation has really diversified and succeeded in drawing a wider audience," Shen said.《哪吒》系列概念设计师申威表示,中国动画的崛起奠基于国内动画人近年来的进步。他表示:“过去动画作品被认为只吸引年轻观众,尤其是儿童。但随着叙事手法和动画技术的双重进步,中国动画已实现真正多元化,成功吸引了更广泛的受众。”Yuan Yun'er, a Beijing-based film critic, said the infusion of modern values into traditional culture is a key factor behind the success of Chinese animated films this year. Both Ne Zha 2 and Nobody draw inspiration from ancient classics, with the latter loosely inspired by the 16th-century novel Journey to the West.北京影评人袁云儿指出,将现代价值观注入传统文化是今年中国动画电影成功的关键因素。《哪吒之魔童降世2》和《浪浪山小妖怪》均从古代经典中汲取灵感,后者更以十六世纪小说《西游记》为创作蓝本。"It's easy to stir audiences' interest when they already know the settings and characters. They feel a fresh connection when these reimagined stories reflect their own modern-day struggles and pressures," Yuan said.袁云儿表示:“当观众已经熟悉故事背景和角色时,很容易引起他们的兴趣。当这些重新构思的故事反映出他们自身在现代社会中的挣扎与压力时,他们便会产生一种全新的共鸣感。”franchisen./ˈfræn.tʃaɪz/系列作品sequeln./ˈsiː.kwəl/续集

With millions of students beginning their summer vacation, theaters across the country are raising the stakes tocontend in the fiercely competitive market.随着数百万学生开始暑假,全国各地的剧院都在提高赌注,以在竞争激烈的市场中竞争。As of Sunday, the summer box office—the year's longest movie season, lasting from June 1 to Aug 31—has raked in over 2.54 billion yuan ($354.5 million), close to last year's 2.825 billion yuan during the same period, according to the showbiz information live tracker Maoyan Pro.根据娱乐圈信息实时追踪机构猫眼专业的数据,截至周日,夏季票房已超过25.4亿元(3.545亿美元),接近去年同期的28.25亿元。夏季票房是今年最长的电影季,从6月1日持续到8月31日。Currently topping the summer charts is the crime film She's Got No Name, starring A-list actress Zhang Yizi. Inspired by a 1945 domestic violence case, the film depicts an abused wife who murdered her husband in Shanghai.目前,在夏季排行榜上名列前茅的是由一线女演员张一姿主演的犯罪电影《她没有名字》。受1945年一起家庭暴力案件的启发,这部电影描绘了一位在上海谋杀丈夫的受虐妻子。Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning, the eighth installment of Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise's long-running espionage action franchise, has taken the second spot, followed by the dinosaur-themed sci-fi blockbuster Jurassic World Rebirth.《任务:不可能》是好莱坞超级明星汤姆·克鲁斯长期从事间谍活动系列的第八部,排名第二,紧随其后的是以恐龙为主题的科幻大片《侏罗纪世界重生》。A total of 104 films have been released or are set to debut this summer, with animated films—a family-friendly genre—emerging as one of the season's biggest draws.今年夏天,共有104部电影上映或即将上映,其中动画电影——一种适合家庭观看的类型——成为本季最受欢迎的电影之一。Japanese animated film Detective Conan: One-Eyed Flashback, and Endless Journey of Love, a Chinese animation feature about the romance between an assassin and a fishing village girl, have respectively ranked as the fourth and sixth highest-grossing titles of the summer.日本动画电影《名侦探柯南:单眼闪回》和中国动画电影《无尽的爱情之旅》分别排名夏季票房第四和第六。Highly anticipated upcoming animated films include Curious Tales of a Temple, which is an innovative retelling of Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) novelist Pu Songling's masterpiece Liaozhai Zhiyi (Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio), and The Legend of Hei 2, which will once again bring to life the titular black cat demon—a shape-shifter capable of transforming into an adorable boy.备受期待的即将上映的动画电影包括《天宫奇闻》,这是对清朝(1644-1911)小说家蒲松龄的代表作《聊斋志异》的创新重述,以及《黑传说2》,它将再次将名义上的黑猫妖变为现实——一个能够变成可爱男孩的变形器。With more live-action tentpoles gearing up for the lucrative season, highlighted projects also include Dongji Rescue, based on the true story of Chinese fishermen rescuing British prisoners of war from the sinking Japanese cargo ship Lisbon Maru in the 1940s, and The Lychee Road, which fictionalizes a Tang Dynasty (618-907) low-level official's difficult mission to transport the fruit from which the movie's title is taken.随着越来越多的真人帐篷杆为利润丰厚的季节做准备,突出的项目还包括《东吉救援》和《荔枝路》,前者基于20世纪40年代中国渔民从沉没的日本货船里斯本丸上营救英国战俘的真实故事,后者虚构了唐朝(618-907)一名低级官员运输电影标题所指水果的艰巨任务。"The summer season is heating up with a variety of genres and themes," said Rao Shuguang, president of the China Film Critics Association.中国影评人协会会长饶曙光表示:“夏季正以各种类型和主题升温。”Despite the Chinese film market facing various challenges—from the unprecedented expansion of short videos to decreasing investment—domestic filmmakers have been actively developing new methods to attract and resonate with audiences, he added.他补充道,尽管中国电影市场面临着各种挑战——从前所未有的短视频扩张到投资减少——但国内电影制作人一直在积极开发新的方法来吸引观众并引起共鸣。"A healthy and mature market isn't just about runaway hits like Ne Zha 2—it's about having a steady stream of high-quality films across all genres. Different movies need to find their right audiences—that's how a sustainable industry can be built and kept growing," Rao said.饶说:“一个健康而成熟的市场不仅仅是像《哪吒2》这样的热门电影,而是所有类型的高质量电影源源不断地涌现。不同的电影需要找到合适的观众,这就是一个可持续的产业如何建立和保持增长。”。Propelled by the summer blockbusters, this year's box office has reached 29.9 billion yuan, according to live tracker Beacon.据实时追踪公司Beacon称,在夏季大片的推动下,今年的票房已达到299亿元。Chen Jin, a veteran analyst at Beacon's research institute, said that the industry expects the summer season to boost morale and accelerate recovery.Beacon研究所资深分析师陈进表示,业界预计夏季将提振士气,加快复苏。domestic violencen.家庭暴力/dəˈmɛstɪk ˈvaɪələns/blockbustern.大轰动/ˈblɒkbʌstər/

The pair would become the lone victims of a vicious blaze in downtown Wilmington in April 1880, victims of circumstance who died committed to unwavering heroism. But their story is bigger than just its tragic end. It speaks to the community of Wilmington and the bravery its residents have shown in its moments of need.

Pennywise Dreadful: The Journal of Stephen King Studies

This month, Dawn and Alan are joined by Dr. Andrew Tate and Dr Jenn Ashworth to discuss Stephen King's epic tale of the destruction of the world - The Stand. Dr Andrew Tate's research focuses on the intersections between literature, theology and aesthetics. He has two primary historical interests: nineteenth-century writing and its relationship with theological debates and contemporary fiction in relation to the sacred. Recent published work in this field includes journal articles on Ruskin and the Psalms and a book chapter on Decadence and the Bible. He co-chairs the Ruskin Research Seminar and contribute to the Gladstone Centre's regular colloquia and conference programme. My next Victorian project will develop my previous work on the Psalms with reference to Hopkins, Tennyson and Dickens. Two of my books, Contemporary Fiction and Christianity (Continuum, 2008) and, co-authored with Arthur Bradley, The New Atheist Novel (Continuum, 2010) have focused on late twentieth-century and early twenty-first century narratives. He edited a special double issue of The Year Book of English Studies on religion and literature (2009) and co-edited Literature and the Bible: a Reader (Routledge, 2013). He has recently published a monograph on Twenty-First Century Apocalyptic Fiction and is working on another on the figure of Jesus/Christ in post-millennial narrative. Dr Jenn Ashworth's main areas of interest are long prose fiction and the short story. Her recent work has concentrated on the unreliable or limited narrator and on LDS fiction. She have recently completed a novel in the first person omniscient point of view that engages with ideas about healing, transformation, haunting and masculinity. New areas of interest include gaming and interactivity, digital storytelling projects and narrative and new media more generally. She is also interested in writing industries and new routes into publication for writers, collaborative work, and the way writers and other creative practitioners work together. With this in mind, in 2013 she co-founded the writers' and artists' collective, Curious Tales, which allows practitioners to work together to create, produce and deliver creative works. So far they have published the illustrated anthologies: The Longest Night: Five Curious Tales, Poor Souls' Light: Seven Curious Tales, Bus Station Unbound, The Barrow Rapture and Congregation of Innocents: Five Curious Tales. She recently published the Fell, set on the Lancashire coast. Title music is copyright of the London Symphonic Orchestra. Baby Can You Dig Your Man comes from the mini series of The Stand, and Jungleland is the property of Bruce Springsteen.
