Superstar - Chapter 2157

In the last week of the twentieth century, the curtain came to an end in a mighty and vigorous manner. The millennium bug crisis that people feared did not bring about the end of the world. The sun of the twenty-first century was still unscathed on the earth. The calendar was from 1999. Turning to 2000, the world seems to have become different, but it seems that nothing has changed. The passage of time has allowed the excitement to slowly settle down, only the restlessness remaining in the air, reminiscent of Nafei Unusual moment.

The North American weekend box office rankings in the last week of the twentieth century also released the millennial craze. The entire box office market rose by 53%, making the movie market in 1999 wild at the last moments, making the top ten on the list. All of Ming’s works have shown a green growth momentum, making major film companies deeply feel the madness at the dawn of the new century.

Amidst this, “Beautiful Mind” once again created an incredible miracle. With the single-library box office data of 12,000 U.S. dollars, the myth was written for the third consecutive week, and it swept the box office of 21.6 million U.S. dollars for three days on weekends. , The increase is as high as 20%. Although this is not the work with the highest increase this week, it is enough to make “Beautiful Mind” burst into a box office of 20 million. It achieved such an amazing result in the third week of its release, stepped out of the sky-defying development curve, and completely ignited. The last weekend of the twentieth century.

Faced with the strong performance of “Beautiful Mind”, “Little Elf Mouse”, with a box office increase of 36%, handed over 16 million US dollars at the weekend box office, followed closely behind; and the “Toys” was released for seven weeks. “General Mobilization 2” became the biggest winner of this year’s holiday tranche. This week’s box office rose by 20%, occupying the third place with $12.4 million, and the cumulative box office officially passed the 200 million threshold!

“Beautiful Mind” became the North American weekend box office champion in the last week of the twentieth century. Its performance exceeded everyone’s expectations. It showed the destructive battle of a commercial movie. This is completely different from “Death Row”, even The box office driving force that was comparable to “Schindler’s List” broke out, leaving the three giants of DreamWorks shocked.

Compared with the appalling box office performance of “Beautiful Mind”, the box office of works such as “Genius Ripley” and “The Man on the Moon” was disappointing. The former only ranked third this week, and even lags behind the box office. The counter-attack “Toy Story 2”; the latter actually dropped 28% in the box office in the whole market in jubilation. The cumulative box office in the two weeks after the release was only 24 million, with an investment of 82 million. Obviously, there is no return, which makes Universal Pictures want to cry without tears.

The box office performance of “Genius Ripley” is not only far below expectations. The most important thing is that although film critics and audiences have a good reputation, they still lack a bit of enthusiasm. The fanatical pursuit of imagination did not appear. Not good news, Miramax Pictures suddenly became anxious, and the Weinstein brothers can be seen in every corner of Hollywood. In-house screenings, small viewing parties, screenwriters reception, actors’ parties…At the turn of the century, these two brothers were busier than anyone at any time.

In stark contrast, “Beautiful Mind”, from spot screenings to limited screenings, to full-scale releases, every step is making history, showing the box office potential that shocked everyone, relying on three consecutive weeks of high-powered box office. Pulling momentum, the cumulative box office sprinted to 50 million US dollars in one breath, which obviously brought another surprise.

Originally, people criticized the investment cost of this work as high as 60 million U.S. dollars, which for a biographical film is almost equal to 120 million for a commercial action film, making people deeply worried about the profitability of DreamWorks. But now, everyone has closed their mouths obediently—obviously, the box office results of “Hugo Products” never need them to worry about.

With the strong rise of “Beautiful Mind” and the recovery of “Genius Ripley”, Hollywood began to circulate a saying: “Beautiful Mind” is indeed an excellent work, but it is really good enough to match ” Is Forrest Gump comparable? Hugo Lancaster has swept across the entire North American continent. Should he continue to watch him rampage?

Behind the four little golden figures of Hugo, no one should forget that he is not yet 33 years old this year. What does this mean? This means that Hugo’s artistic life is at least ten or twenty years away. He will show incredible dominance over the entire Hollywood and become a cancer of Hollywood, restricting the development of other actors, even many outstanding ones. Actors can’t get the corresponding affirmation, let alone new actors?

Like last year Sean Penn, like Denzel Washington, like Brad Pitt, like George Clooney, like Matt Damon, like Kevin Spacey, like Leonardo DiCaprio…These actors have all contributed wonderful performances in the past few years, but they have not been able to get the affirmation of the Oscar statuette. There is only one reason: Hugo lies in front of them like a mountain.

It is hard to imagine whether the newcomer will have a bright future if things go on like this.

The title of “Hollywood Cancer” has spread like wildfire in the circle, especially with the box office performance of “Beautiful Mind”, this kind of remarks have become more popular, even “Saturday Night Live” is broadcast live on the program. In the process, Hugo was so teased.

However, the box office momentum of “Beautiful Mind” has no way to stop, especially the holiday competition has always been weak. After entering January, it came to the winter season where all film companies rest and adjust, and the whole movie market is getting hot. Falling down, this has increasingly made the “beautiful mind” stand out.

In the first week of 2000, “Beauty Mind” expanded its theaters further, increasing its number of theaters to 2,200, and finally surrendered a drop of only 8%, winning 20 million for the second week in a row. The weekend box office of the level, with 22 million U.S. dollars, unsurprisingly won the North American weekend box office rankings, and opened the 21st century movie market with a proud attitude.

Only three movies were screened on a small scale this week, and all of them were old faces in the weekend box office ranking competition, such as “Little Elf Mouse”, “Miracle in the Green”, “Genius Ripley” and “Challenge Sunday.” They occupy the second to fifth places on the list respectively, but unfortunately, even the runner-up “Elven Rat” only has a weekend box office capacity of only 11 million, and no one can shake the “beautiful mind” at all. Dominance.

It is worth mentioning that “Genius Ripley” finally stopped the downward trend, and the cumulative box office crossed the cost line, and finally began to pick up amid the hard shouting of the Weinstein brothers.

The deserted winter stalls will continue until the end of February, and the entire market will appear calm.

In the following week, the comedy movie “next.” held its grand premiere. This small-cost movie with an investment of only 11 million has exploded with astonishing energy, winning 1,400. Wan’s premiere at the box office made the entire North American cheer.

It is a pity that this result has not been able to shake the momentum of the “Beautiful Mind” championship, with a 22% drop in the weekend box office of 17.2 million, achieving a strong three consecutive championships. People have completely lost their language ability. First, the “Sixth Sense of Supernatural” achieved seven consecutive championships in the summer file, and then “Beautiful Mind” achieved three consecutive championships at the New Year’s Eve, and these two works are themes with relatively weak box office driving force. Apart from lamenting Hugo’s box office appeal, people have no idea.

In the third week of January, the small-cost romantic comedy movie “Sorry You (… landed in North America, but its performance was not satisfactory. The US$7.6 million box office only ranked third. “Next Friday “Although the box office plummeted by 44%, it still continued to occupy the runner-up place with a record of 8 million U.S. dollars.

In the absence of competitors, “Beautiful Mind” has completed four consecutive championships without any suspense. The box office drop of only 2% shows that the entire market is currently dominated by “Beautiful Mind”, and there is no one at all. This work can shake its leading position.

After the brilliance of the four consecutive championships, the cumulative box office of “Beautiful Mind” officially passed the threshold of 100 million US dollars. In fact, it is more accurate to say that the movie box office has reached such a high level on Monday of the third week of January. www. uukānshu. com plus the 17 million box office performance over the weekend, five weeks after the release of “Beautiful Mind”, it has accumulated $124 million!

Although the momentum is far inferior to “Spiritual Sixth Sense” or “Trumen’s World”, the overall development curve is close to “L.A. Confidential”, demonstrating the huge potential of North America’s box office to exceed 200 million.

As a biographical film, the attention of “Beautiful Mind” is far beyond imagination. Although people have mixed opinions about Hugo’s adaptation, some people think that Hugo has distorted reality and rewritten a fairy tale, far from nothing. The practical significance is to misinterpret the meaning of the biography; but some people think that Hugo has done artistic treatment of reality, and the re-created stories focus on themes, are more humanistic, and show the wisdom and keenness of a screenwriter.

However, it is undeniable that with the advancing of the movie’s release time, more and more patients with mental illness and their families have boldly walked into the cinema to appreciate this work. At the same time, more and more people realize that there are such suffering people around them, and even themselves, there are hidden psychological dangers, which makes social culture change little by little invisibly.

The low-key “beautiful mind” has shown the box office potential of a commercial movie with a counterattack attitude. It even hopes to hit the box office of 200 million US dollars while also relying on its own power to influence society.
