《Masters of the Universe》流媒体首秀表现亮眼，粉丝期待续作推出_我的网站

A |     亚马逊的 Masters of the Universe 电影在票房上可能遭遇了惨败，但在 Prime Video 上的首播却获得了巨大成功，点燃了粉丝对续集的希望。这部希曼冒险电影今年夏天早些时候在院线仅获得了 1.13 亿美元的票房。考虑到据称 1.7 亿美元的预算，在院线上映不到两个月后，Masters of the Universe 就转战流媒体也就不足为奇了。然而，《好莱坞报道》的数据显示，Masters of the Universe 在 Prime Video 上迎来了第二春，在截至 7 月 26 日的一周内，观看时长高达 11.7 亿分钟。它的表现足以夺得当周尼尔森流媒体排行榜的冠军，并且是仅有的两部突破 10 亿分钟大关的作品之一（另一部是《生活大爆炸》）。

Chinese scientists studying a 244-million-year-old ichthyosaur Mixosaurus fossil from Southwest China’s Guizhou Province found at least 11 embryos inside the specimen. The discovery sets a new record for the highest number of embryos found in ichthyosaur lineages and reveals that high reproductive capacity in ichthyosaurs emerged earlier than previously believed, chinanews.com reported on Wednesday. 
Ichthyosaur was among the most successful Mesozoic marine reptiles, and its reproductive strategy was considered crucial to their adaptation to ocean environments. Its reproductive ability before extinction has long intrigued paleontologists.
A joint research team from the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), and the Zhejiang Museum of Natural History, has published the study on the ichthyosaur paleontology in the international journal PeerJ. 
According to Wang Wei, the paper’s corresponding author and an associate professor at the institute, embryo-preserving ichthyosaur fossils have been found across 11 genera from the Early Triassic to the Early Cretaceous. 
However, for ichthyosaur groups that diverged in the Early Triassic, embryo-bearing fossils known to scientists remain scarce, and knowledge about the number of offspring they carried is especially limited. Previous discoveries of pregnant specimens, such as Chaohusaurus and Mixosaurus, contained no more than three embryos, suggesting limited early reproductive capacity among early ichthyosaurs.
According to Gu Shengxiao, the paper’s first author and a researcher at the Zhejiang Museum of Natural History, the study examined an almost complete adult Mixosaurus panxianensis fossil from Guizhou’s Middle Triassic strata, dating back about 244 million years. The specimen measures 112 centimeters long, including a skull length of 22 centimeters, with only the tail tip missing. 
The researchers identified 11 fetal ichthyosaur skeletons with skulls inside the adult specimen’s abdomen, confirming they were embryos rather than cannibalized prey based on their position and morphology. There are also fossil pieces outside the belly of the adult, which could belong to the 11 or represent other embryos. 
All embryos in the Mixosaurus panxianensis fossil were at a similar late developmental stage, suggesting the mother died shortly before giving birth, according to the researchers.
The Mixosaurus panxianensis fossil containing at least 11 embryos sets a record for Triassic ichthyosaurs and all known ichthyosaur species. The researchers believe this indicates that Mixosaurus may have adopted a reproductive strategy of producing large numbers of offspring in a single birth. This exceptionally high reproductive capacity may have provided them with a survival advantage. 
Among Triassic ichthyosaurs and all known ichthyosaur groups, Mixosaurus is the genus with the largest number of fossil specimens and is also one of the most widely distributed ichthyosaurs. 
The researchers said the multi-embryo Mixosaurus panxianensis fossil may represent an extreme case, but it confirms the species’ ability to produce large numbers of offspring, potentially contributing to its dominance among contemporaneous marine reptiles. 
The study offers the first fossil evidence of high fertility in Triassic ichthyosaurs. Future research will examine other embryo-bearing Triassic ichthyosaurs to determine whether a multiple-offspring reproductive strategy was common in early ichthyosaur evolution and what factors drove this trait, Wang said.

。虽然这些尼尔森数据有一些值得注意的地方（仅限美国，且仅涵盖电视端观看），但对于 Masters of the Universe 来说，这些数字确实非常可观，粉丝们已经开始希望这能为在片尾彩蛋之后延续故事提供依据。警告！以下包含 Masters of the Universe 的剧透……亚马逊显然希望这部由特拉维斯·奈特执导的电影能开启一个系列，因为它有四个片尾彩蛋为后续剧情做铺垫。其中一个是关于希瑞（She-Ra）登场的预热，粉丝们希望她能在续集中出现。

B | 但续集会实现吗？到目前为止，亚马逊尚未确认 Masters of the Universe 2，也没有关于选角或制作的传闻。“几个月前我还说他们不可能拍续集，但现在既然它在流媒体上大火，就有可能了，”有人表示，“我觉得这是一部有趣的爆米花电影，所以我不介意出续集。”“我的孩子们在 Prime 上看了，非常喜欢，我现在已经花了 100 美元买玩具，”另一个人说，“直接从亚马逊买的。

C | 我认为拍续集的机会很大。”很难过度解读这些观看数据。

D | 谁知道亚马逊的高层会如何评判它的成功，或者是否会推出续集？也许直接在 Prime Video 上线电影或电视剧比院线发行更有可能。也许亚马逊会决定不再进行后续动作。我们只能拭目以待。
