Adso Films, en alianza con Trinity CineAsia, ha anunciado que estrenará en cines la película Ne Zha 2, fenómeno absoluto del cine oriental contemporáneo.

Inspirada en la mitología china y basada en la novela del siglo XVI titulada Investidura de los dioses, escrita por Xu Zhonglin, Ne Zha 2 retoma la historia de un niño demonio criado entre mortales. En esta secuela –por cierto: puede disfrutarse sin haber visionado la anterior–, Ne Zha forja una insólita alianza con el príncipe dragón Ao Bing en una batalla épica para proteger a sus clanes.

Puede que no te suene demasiado su nombre, pero esta odisea fantástica, escrita y dirigida por Yang Yu, debutó en China el pasado 29 de enero, coincidiendo estratégicamente con las celebraciones del Año Nuevo lunar, y desde entonces ha recaudado más de 2.000 millones de dólares, convirtiéndose en la película de animación...

‘Ne Zha 2’ Is Getting a New English Dub Release in the U.S.
Image
One of the most surprising blockbusters of the year is getting an all-star English dub in an attempt to take over the world all over again. Ne Zha 2 smashed records when it became the biggest animated movie of all-time thanks to its $2.11 billion global box office, and found itself among James Cameron’s Avatar movies and MCU Avengers films as the fifth-highest grossing movie ever.

Ne Zha 2 obviously made most of its money at the China box office, but you can’t make a movie that big without the rest of the world wanting to see what the fuss is about. For that reason, the movie, with its original language and subtitles, managed to pull in reasonable box office receipts. Now the new English dub has already started securing screens in the U.S. and Australia, and is prepared to put in the marketing to make the film a success all over again.

Film Review: Creation of the Gods I: Kingdom of Storms (2023) by Wuershan
Image
The shadow of Xu Zhonglin's influential novel “The Investiture of the Gods” looms long over Chinese popular culture. As one of the most well-regarded vernacular epics since the 16th century, its heady blend of history and mythology has been a creatively enticing gauntlet for many filmmakers. Before now, the last big-budget stab at the material was 2016's 3D flop “League of Gods”, led by an all-star cast including Jet Li, Tony Leung Ka-Fai and Louis Koo, and still somehow won Worst Picture at that year's Golden Broom Awards. The crown now lies heavy on the head of filmmaker Wuershan, a director experienced in the fantasy genre (his “Painted Skin 2: The Resurrection” was at one time China's highest grossing movie domestically) but still holding the great responsibility of condensing 100 chapters of beloved high-concept magic and action into a movie…or three. Does the first chapter, “Kingdom of Storms”, capture...
