Superstar - Chapter 2134

In the first week of August, “The Sixth Sense of Spirituality” won the championship strongly, and “Blair the Witch” and “The Running Bride” were separated runners-up and third.

Do people expect this ending? It can not be said that there is no, after all, the existence of Hugo is the biggest uncertainty factor, but even so, people are still surprised by the result. Most importantly, the performance of the two horror films became the biggest highlight of the week.

For a long time, horror movies are more of the main fighting force in the spring or winter files, especially the annual Halloween, there will always be many horror movies on the scene. However, due to the limitations of the subject matter, it is always difficult for them to make a difference in the summer. Just like comedy movies, horror movies are more of a hot summer season. Under the frantic bombardment of commercial blockbusters, they often Be able to become a light breeze and achieve unexpected results.

However, they are always only supporting roles and cannot be the protagonists. The era of horror movies is over.

But this summer showed a completely different pattern. The outstanding performance of the three horror films “Ghost Invasion”, “Blair the Witch”, and “Sixth Sense of Supernatural” has almost become the biggest surprise of the entire movie market, making everyone admire. .

Against the background of the strong attack of commercial blockbusters in visual special effects, following retro plots such as “L.A. Confidential” and black humorous comedies such as “Trumen’s World”, bid farewell to bloody, psychological thriller horror movies once again Winning a place is a refreshing change for the development pattern of the entire film industry.

Everyone was marveling at the excellent performance of the “Spiritual Sixth Sense”, and the debate within Bowei Pictures also came to an abrupt end. Everyone knew clearly that the two thousand two hundred theaters had too few screenings. , This is simply a waste of Hugo’s box office appeal!

At the beginning, Robert Iger and David Vogel planned so much, but not to passively wait for the “superior sixth sense” to perform well in the video tape market. Now that we have seen the outstanding results at the box office during the premiere weekend, the expansion has followed closely, and Disney has added 300 theaters in one breath, bringing the movie’s screening scale to 2,500, and it has been hit by a pie. The “Blair the Witch” stayed in sync.

The biggest feature of horror movies is that the decline in the next week will be very tragic. Many horror works will have a decline of 60% or even 70% in the next week. For this type of work, the decline is limited to 100%. At fifty, it was a huge victory—”Blair the Witch” was an outlier and could not be counted in this rank. The recent “Ghost Invasion” dropped by as much as 55 percent in the following week. This has given the director of DreamWorks a sigh of relief, and the media also believes that such a performance is very good.

The situation of the “Spiritual Sixth Sense” is a bit more special, due to the double praise of film critics and audiences, plus the box office of the premiere weekend did not really break out of the level of 40 million-this is also generally believed that Hugo is in North America. With the basic capabilities in the box office market, the box office of the movie next week is bound to maintain a good development curve, for example, control at 30%-or even less than 25%. However, when the movie’s box office results came out the next week, everyone completely lost their language skills.

The expansion of 2,500 theaters, coupled with the powerful single-library box office of 15,000 US dollars, brought the weekend box office of “Spiritual Sixth Sense” to 37.5 million US dollars!

$37.5 million, how incredible is this achievement? Not only because this result has increased by 4% compared to the box office of the premiere, but also because this result is enough to be recorded in history, ranking fifth in the box office of the next week in film history-the top four works currently occupying the top four are ” “Independence Day”, “Jurassic Park”, “Trumen’s World” and “Star Wars Episode 1: Phantom Threat”.

What kind of achievement is this? This almost makes the “Sixth Sense of Supernatural” stand on the same level as the most outstanding films in film history, and the final box office performance of these works is more than 300 million. A horror movie has a North American box office of 300 million US dollars? This is a dream. This is a dream that has not been realized in twenty years.

At present, the top box office record of horror movies is “Jaws”, but in fact, this movie cannot be regarded as a horror movie in the strict sense. It is more a thriller movie, and “Jaws” has a box office record of two hundred and six thousand. Ten thousand, 300 million is very, very far away. Not to mention that the film history runner-up “Ghostbusters” and the film history second runner-up “The Exorcist” both have a box office of no more than 250 million, and apart from these three works, there is no horror movie. The box office can exceed 200 million-strictly speaking, the box office of a horror movie can exceed 100 million US dollars, which is already a great victory.

But now?

After the “Sixth Sense of Spirituality” broke out in the first week of the film history’s highest premiere box office, the next week unexpectedly used a posture of increase to further create history, in one fell swoop among the top five film history in the next week’s box office, its strong performance has already made everyone Completely dumbfounded, even Bowei Pictures and Disney were completely stunned. The huge surprise left them at a loss.

Even more frightening is that in just two weeks after its release, the cumulative box office of “Spiritual Sixth Sense” has reached 95 million U.S. dollars, and it can exceed the 100 million threshold by next Tuesday or Wednesday at the latest, and 200 million U.S. dollars has already Within its range. This means that the pace of Hugo’s creation of history has been unstoppable, and people are more concerned about what height the final North American box office of this horror movie can reach, is it really 300 million? Is it really possible?

Such a sky-high box office curve made the other movies in the second week of August all dim. The comedy film “Project Bouffinger (, which premiered this week, was quite anticipated before it was released. Stephen Martin and Ai The combination of the two comedy giants of Di Murphy gave people reason to believe that the movie’s box office would achieve good results, but the result was disappointing. The weekend box office of just $18 million was not competitive.

The “Sixth Sense of Spirituality” did not encounter any challenges at all, and completed two consecutive championships without any suspense!

Even the news that “Blair the Witch” successfully broke the 100 million box office this week is not a surprise, because everyone’s attention is focused on the “sixth sense of supernatural”, and the cumulative box office for two weeks is approaching the 100 million threshold. Not only is there no one before, but I am afraid there is no one to come after. This is definitely an insurmountable milestone for horror movies.

People were still skeptical about the box office trend of “Spiritual Sixth Sense”, but now people suddenly discovered that after entering the box office market in August, there is no work that can effectively challenge this horror movie. On the contrary, Yue has become a stage for the performance of the “Sixth Sense of Supernatural”.

In the third week of August, “Marriage Proposal Concussion (.blue.eyes starring Hugh Grant was once again a big hit. The US$75 million investment only earned US$10 million in the premiere box office. It even lost to the box office of the “Bouffinger Project” next week, let alone attacked the “Sixth Sense of Supernatural”.

In the absence of any challenger, the influence of the “supernatural sixth sense” is increasing, and more and more people are entering the cinema to watch this horror movie.

As the film critics said before, this is not just a horror movie. The delicate and true emotional description in the movie easily touches every audience, not only the mother-child relationship between Cole and Lynn, but also not just Marko. The relationship between Ma and Anna is also the friendship between Cole and Malcolm that supports each other and trusts each other, which makes the film unbelievably attractive.

Whether it was Haley’s pitiful and tearful performance; or Hugo’s struggling and painful, profound and delicate performance, countless audiences burst into tears. Bowei Pictures even issued a ridiculous slogan, “Please prepare two packs of facial tissues before watching the movie.” This has become one of the biggest gimmicks in the movie.

Originally criticized by Roger Ebert and other film critics for being too sensational, there was an incredible reaction among the audience. More than 60% of the audience said that the last two scenes of the film made emotions uncontrollable, not only sensational, but also the kind of shock after learning the truth, which completely derailed almost all reason, and can only completely indulge emotions. Burst the embankment.

This makes many parents willing to take their children into the cinema to watch the “Sixth Sense of Supernatural”.

This is undoubtedly a huge surprise, because the “Sixth Sense of Spirituality” is determined to be “pg-13 level”, which is the special counseling level, mainly for children under the age of thirteen. Parents are warned to say ~www.mtlnovel. com~ This movie may include not serious violence, fruit body, vulgar language, etc., to remind parents that they need to pay attention. This also caused people to worry that such a classification would become an obstacle to further breakthroughs in the box office of the movie.

But with the pace of movie releases, more and more parents took their children into the cinema.

What’s more interesting is that because the film is considered to be a “seven deadly sins” type of work, many loyal movie audiences are tight-lipped about the finale. Such a grand occasion was never expected by the film company. Many viewers ended up because they were too curious. Shocked and walked into the cinema. This is definitely a crucial part of the success of the “Spiritual Sixth Sense”-because after the ending is spoiled, the shock of the whole movie is often weakened a lot, and the viewing effect will also be weakened a lot.

It can almost be said that the whole people are pursuing the “sixth sense of supernatural”, and everyone has worked together to push this movie to the top one by one, which made the box office of the film burst out with shocking energy in the third week of the movie, and once again went out of the sky. The curve, which ended with a 7% decline, created a myth in the history of the film industry—all film genres—almost in a daze to see the **** trend of the “Titanic” again.

Could it be that the “Supernatural Sixth Sense” can really set off a “Titanic” box office frenzy? This is not an interrogative sentence, but an affirmative sentence!
