First time in China's theaters for Ghibli Totoro is a success

First time in China's theaters for Ghibli Totoro is a success. Thirty years after the first release in Japanese theaters, the film My Neighbor Totoro (with a new and beautiful poster) arrives in Chinese theaters and immediately wins the second place in box-office.It is a first time for a Studio Ghibli film launched in Chinese theaters.A well-know film by Hayao Miyazaki which opened with the second place in the Chinese box office with $12.9 millions, second only to the new DC Aquaman cinecomic.A testament to the longevity of animation, wherein an animated film that was produced thirty years ago, using hand-drawn animation, can still beat out all-new and expensive blockbuster.It is good to remember that the Ghibli films were already known and appreciated in China, thanks to various home and streaming versions, while they arrived for the first time in theaters thanks to distributor SCLA, which is already negotiating to have the rights of the other Ghibli films.Here the beautiful new poster:[ Fra - source CartoonBrew ].
