China's 2025 Spring Festival box office is smashing records as moviegoers flood theaters during the holiday season! 🎥 By midday on February 2, total revenue (including pre-sales) surged past 6.5 billion yuan (~$896.4 million), per data from Maoyan. That’s enough cash to buy roughly 1.3 billion bubble teas! 🧋💸
Leading the charge are three blockbusters: 'Ne Zha 2,''Detective Chinatown 1900,' and 'Creation of the Gods II: Demon Force.' The animated sequel 'Ne Zha 2'—follow-up to 2019’s mythical hit—has already raked in 2.7 billion yuan, proving superheroes don’t need capes when they’ve got ancient legends. 🦸♂️✨
Why the hype? Spring Festival is China’s peak movie season, blending family traditions with cinematic adventures. This year’s lineup, packed with fantasy and mystery, is a cultural reset for Gen-Z audiences. Think Marvel meets Chinese mythology! 🔥
