A Case Study

Result: Dog movies = 💵

"Forget about Avengers, Fate of the Furious, and Wolf Warriors. Forget about Ant-Man or Spider-Man or Thor: Ragnarok. In China, Justice League is now in the dog house." - Rob Cain (Forbes.com)

A humble little movie with no major talent attached to it and a small prior audience called "A Dog's Purpose" beat out "Justice League" and earned $88 million in China back in 2017, becoming one of China’s 25 top-grossing movies that year.

A movie featuring dogs and positive messaging - just like “When I Was a Human” - has incredible potential to attract the same attention.
