外媒看中国：中国成好莱坞烂片沃土

After their tent-pole film Tomorrowland opened to a soft $41 million in North America over the Memorial Day weekend, Disney’s executives must now be looking to China in hopes of cutting their losses on the $190 million picture.

周末北美阵亡将士纪念日，继电影《明日世界》拉开了4100万美元的惨淡票房后，如今迪斯尼的高管们转向中国，希望能在中国挽回影片投资的1.9亿美元损失。

The George Clooney-Brad Bird sci-fi /adventure arrives in Chinese theaters on Tuesday with high hopes for a ‘do-over’ after its weaker-than-expected debut in the U.S., Europe, and other territories.

布莱德·伯德导演的由乔治·克鲁尼主演的科幻/冒险周二于中国影院上映，在美国、欧洲和其他地区首次发行上映惨遭滑铁卢之后，该片抱着高期望想在中国力挽狂澜。

China, with its burgeoning box office and hearty appetite for Hollywood fare, has become a sort of haven of second chances for films that disappoint in North America and Europe.

继在北美和欧洲创下惨淡票房后，中国的新兴的票房加上国内影迷对好莱坞电影的由衷喜爱算是给了这部电影第二次重生的机会。

Owing to its size and rapid growth, and its love for cinematic spectacle, China represents a new sort of hedge for Hollywood, a market that will sometimes—though certainly not always—redeem big budget flops.
