Chapter 963 (1/2)
On the second day of the premiere, June 13, the word-of-mouth ban on 007's ghost party was lifted.
This new style of 007 movie has become the focus of the media and the public without any doubt.
The film's comprehensive media rating not only surged to a high of 8.6, ”Hollywood Reporter” also praised the film as the best 007 in the last 10 years. At the same time, the new James Bond actor Pierce Brosnan, the female Mrs. m and the young Dr. Q have been widely recognized.
Driven by the westero system, the discussion of the film on the Internet platform has become a hot topic on the major portal social platforms, especially the thunderbolt doll trio and the secret agent movie universe.
In fact, word-of-mouth is not necessarily a decisive factor in the box office of Hollywood commercial films. The popularity of films is often more important. Once it causes heated discussion at the national level, even if the word-of-mouth of a film is not satisfactory, many people can't help buying tickets under the guidance of herd mentality.
Now, ”007's ghost party” not only has a great reputation, this film has also triggered a wide range of hot discussions, business prospects can be imagined.
And then, June 14, Friday.
In anticipation, 007's ghost party was painted on a large scale with 3346 screens in North America.
In order to avoid the edge of ”007 ghost party”, this week, in addition to this super spy blockbuster, the other several are small new films with the scale of less than 1000 yuan, which is not worth mentioning.
On the other hand, the North American box office data of the past box office week was officially released on the day of the ghost Party's opening.
Previously, on June 7, in line with Hollywood's usual one-stop release strategy, the two new films ”heart of the dragon” and ”over age student” that day were not too heavy.
Heart of the dragon is produced by Warner Bros. with a production cost of 57 million US dollars, which is regarded as the level of a big budget movie. However, although Warner Bros. has crossed the heavy bomb threshold, it is only seen that Warner Bros. puts this movie between mission impossible 2 and 007 ghost party, which shows the obvious abandonment mentality of the producer for this movie.
The same is true.
This fantasy film, set in Medieval England, tells the story of a tyrannical king who gets the heart of a dragon and is overthrown and killed. It has been circulating in Hollywood for a long time before the project is approved. Simon has also seen the script, but nothing. Then, after Warner brothers took over, he once hoped to play Mel Gibson or Harrison Ford. Unfortunately, the two super stars Gadu refused, and the hero finally fell on Dennis Quaid, who can only be regarded as the second tier.
After the film started, the comprehensive media score was only 6.3, barely passing.
The other one, extra age cut in, is mainly produced by Simon in order to support a new generation of Hollywood comedians, starring Adam Sandra. The production cost is only $10 million. Compared with the previous two big and small black horses, Romeo and Juliet and black man, extra age cut in has a moderate performance, with a score of 6.5, just breaking the passing line.
As a result, the box office week from June 7 to June 13 still focuses on several old films.
There's no doubt about the first place, mission impossible 2.
In the second week of release, because there was no strong competitor, the box office of mission impossible 2 fell by a very good 35% in a single week, and then closed at $57.11 million. In two weeks, the secret service action blockbuster jointly produced by Denise and paramount has grossed $133.26 million.
Just two weeks after the opening, mission impossible 2 has become paramount's best box office movie in the past year.
The second is heart of the dragon.
In the first week of its release, ”heart of the dragon” started with 2130 screens, earning $16.83 million in the first week.
In the first week, it was only US $16.83 million. In the face of the following ghost Party of 007, heart of the dragon is not a special theme like Romeo and Juliet, and its reputation is also very general. It is expected that the decline in the next week will be at least halved, and the local box office will be about US $30 million.
The production cost of ”heart of the dragon” is only 57 million US dollars, and the local revenue is 30 million, so the loss is inevitable.
The third place is mummy.
Mummy, which was released for the fourth week, continued to earn $12.01 million with a 39% box office drop in the past week. The volume of a single week has approached the threshold of 10 million. The cumulative domestic box office of the film is $137.17 million. It is estimated that the total domestic box office is equivalent to the initial forecast, about $150 million.
The fourth place is Romeo and Juliet.
In the fifth week of its release, the summer film, a small and broad love dark horse, still dropped by a mere 21%, keeping the box office of a single week at more than 10 million US dollars, earning 10.56 million US dollars. The cumulative box office of the film is close to 100 million US dollars, reaching 99.67 million US dollars.
The fifth place is ”over age students”.
After all, it's a new film. The box office of Adam Sandra starring in the comedy in the first seven days of the week is 8.2 million US dollars. Based on the production cost of 10 million US dollars and the publicity cost of 5 million US dollars, the local box office is about 20 million US dollars, which is neither good nor bad. It will soon be able to make a small profit through subsequent distribution.In addition to the top five, films such as ”evaporation secret order” and ”trump spy” have completely dropped out of the summer season competition.
Of course, another small black horse ”black man” is still popular.
This action movie from the other side of the ocean was released in the third week. After a sharp cut in the next week, the decline narrowed to 22% and closed at $3.97 million. The cumulative box office of the movie has reached $19.38 million. The total cost of US $5 million will soon exceed the box office of US $20 million, which is enough to make many studios envy.
Los Angeles.
On Saturday morning at domay point, the restaurant was as busy as usual.
But there are only four kids left for dinner today: Seattle, little Nick, Greenwich and snow.
Veronica came to North America last week and took Melbourne back to Australia when she left.
According to Janet, this is the old man's request. Melbourne is expected to stay in Australia for the whole summer vacation. The old man plans to take care of and educate his baby grandson himself. He also says that it's the same rule when little Nick is older.
As for the reason.
The old man said that Simon has too many women around him. I don't know where they are. He saw some statements that children growing up among women are easy to become feminized.
How can this be tolerated?!
All right.
To put it bluntly, the old man is also expressing his dissatisfaction with Simon's life.
Simon has no problem with that.
In addition, he can't spare much time to educate his son. Looking at Janet's elder brother and second brother, who support the family business, Simon is quite relieved of the old man. In fact, Simon also hopes that his eldest son's character can be as tough and tough as his grandfather's, just like the first generation cowboys who traveled abroad to explore the Australian mainland.
In contrast, if Melbourne has been growing up in domay point manor, it's really hard to say its character in the future.
”Anthony went to Brazil again last week for Vale's privatization project. Although we exerted some pressure through Washington's relationship, Brazil is still more inclined to cooperate with Japan. The Japanese have been operating in Latin America for a longer time, and they have invested a lot in Brazil's mining industry.” speaking of Australia, Janet talked about Johnston's holding of iron ore Layout of the ore industry: ”however, Brazil has not rejected us. Even if it can not compete with the Japanese, Johnston holdings can at least get about 10% of the shares and a certain voice.”
