今日主播周明阳说：

正在热映的《阿凡达：水之道》在全球首映周末票房达到4.35亿美元，表现不及预期。迪士尼称这一结果令人失望。美东时间12月19日，迪士尼股价持续走低，尾盘收跌近5%，创近2年来收盘新低。

行业分析师将《阿凡达2》视为迪士尼的票房赢家，并将假日季视为这部电影成败的关键时期。但在首映周末，这部电影在美国国内的票房为1.34亿美元，没有达到分析师预期的1.75亿美元和迪士尼自己预测的1.35亿至1.5亿美元。

自新冠肺炎疫情暴发以来，迪士尼一直面临着挑战。目前，电影院行业仍在缓慢复苏，迪士尼主题公园的门票价格也一再上涨。今年以来，迪士尼股价下跌了44.6%，可能会创下1974年以来的最大年度百分比跌幅。《阿凡达2》能否收回成本，迪士尼能否力挽狂澜，也许还要看接下来中国电影（600977）市场的票房表现。
