《魔兽》电影在中国卖情怀：上映5天票房破10亿World of Warcraft Movie Flops in the U.S., Earns Big in China

《魔兽》电影上映仅5天，票房就突破了10亿元大关。而该片在美国本土的表现却不温不火。Box Office Mojo数据显示，上映3天，《魔兽》在美国的累计票房仅为2436万美元（约折合人民币1.6亿元），差距可见一斑。分析认为，《魔兽》此次能在中国票房大卖，粉丝的力量功不可没。尤其是70后、80后，他们被称作是中国的“魔兽一代”，而90后也同样承载着《魔兽》情怀。

The World of Warcraft movie “Warcraft” has earned 1 billion RMB at the Chinese box office in five days. The film had much stronger showing in China than it did in the United States. Box Office Mojo reported that the movie only earned $24.36 million (about 160 million RMB) after three days in the United States. The gap is pretty evident. Some analysts believe that “Warcraft”did so well in China because of the large number of Chinese World of Warcraft fans. Those born in the 1970s and 1980s are known in China as the “World of Warcraft generation.” The game is popular with those born in the 1990s as well
