641, the first week box office
The box office on April 1 was quickly announced, attracting countless attention from the outside world, and April Fool's Day was really popular in cinemas!
And some industry insiders almost didn't believe their eyes when they saw the box office of "Get Out"!
6% of the scheduled films actually produced a box office of 16.7 million? Is this crazy? How high is this attendance? Isn't it basically a full house?
However, this is also the characteristic of niche movies, the fewer films scheduled, the easier it is to have a high attendance rate, which is also a reaction to the explosion of word-of-mouth in a movie.
And people who watch movies basically go to the movie itself, and they don't care about the original location of the movie.
And many high-ranking blockbusters, some audiences are not loyal fans of the movie itself, but just as a leisure way to go to the cinema to watch movies, and there happens to be a choice, and there is an essential difference between the two.
Obviously, the movie "Get Out of Desperate Town" should be good, and it has the potential to become a hit, and many people will go out of their way to watch this movie.
Cordillus, it seems a little weak! It didn't kill him.
Some of the people who originally banned Jack Lee's movies have also been shaken, it's all money!
Many people have wavered, and immediately increased the schedule of "Escape from Desperate Town", which didn't care about this low-budget niche movie before, and now can't help but pay attention to it.
Of course, there are still quite a few people who are waiting and not mobilizing immediately.
The box office is so high, in addition to the good movie, but also because yesterday was April Fool's Day, but now it's a working day, today's box office will inevitably fall off a cliff, and there is no need to rush to get along with Cordillus.
After some market adjustments, in the end, "Get Out of Desperate Town" rose to 10% with its good box office performance, and many theaters are still waiting.
And the schedule of "Battleship of the Pacific" has not changed, it is still 45%, if it were not for the fact that some of the films were to be given to the giant companies behind other films, with its first-day box office performance, maybe it would have risen.
Subsequently, there were also various remarks on the Internet about "Escape from Desperate Town", needless to say, it was Cordillus who was working, and everyone was not surprised at all.
Offended Simon Schbed, it's no wonder that there is no reaction.
Besides, the stock of Taigu Airlines is plummeting, how can it be reconciled with him? Just look at the fact that DreamWorks has just gone from a big hit to a cold spot now.
A promising new company that has just risen has been beaten up in this way.
The box office came out quickly the next day, and sure enough, as everyone predicted, the box office of "Pacific Battleship" fell directly below 20 million, only more than 19 million, but it still ranked first by a narrow margin.
And when everyone's eyes looked at "Escape from Desperate Town", they were stunned.
The box office of "Escape from Desperate Town" has risen instead of falling, ranking third with 18.1 million!
In second place is a Hollywood-style tough guy action movie, which also performed very well, and the box office was only more than four million lower than the first day.
Obviously, the decline of "Pacific Battleship" has collapsed somewhat!
Many people in the cinema couldn't sit still, and this time they didn't need to say hello to the distributor Poseidon Pictures, and took the initiative to increase the film schedule, and some who didn't have it also asked Poseidon for data copies.
Although in terms of data, the film scheduling rate of "Escape from Desperate Town" has increased "significantly", the box office has only increased by more than one million, and the performance is actually worse proportionally, but sometimes the account is not calculated like this.
The volume of the movie itself is there, and the subject matter is also limited, but its box office performance can rise in reverse, which has shown that the audience of the movie is not quite a lot.
Moreover, the box office of 10% of the films is 18 million, which is good enough, and it also shows the potential of word of mouth.
If this is not good, then 45% of the scheduled films of "Pacific Battleship" are less than 20 million at the box office, shouldn't it be time to apologize?
Many people look at "Pacific Battleship" and their eyes are starting to be different, you have already jumped like this the next day, how can we support you?
Some people quietly reduced the schedule of "Pacific Battleship" and quietly replaced it with "Escape from Desperate Town", making a fortune in silence.
For several days in a row, the film schedule of "Get Out of Desperate Town" has slowly risen, and the box office has basically shown a stable trend, but the outside word of mouth continues to explode, and even many anti-racist people and minorities have come to the theater to support.
On the weekend of the 6th and 7th, the box office rose sharply, winning 24.8 million and 23.3 million respectively with 25% of the scheduled films, becoming the box office champion of the two days of the weekend.
The total box office of the week was also released, and the box office of "Escape from Desperate Town" was 137 million in the first week, becoming the second, while "Pacific Battleship" only won the third place with 131 million, which has already collapsed.
Trying to catch up with "2012" has become a joke, and if you continue like this, you will lose your old money properly!
However, "Pacific Battleship" still has an overseas box office, and it also has a box office of more than 100 million, which finally makes up for some losses.
Due to various haste in "Escape from Desperate Town", Li Zixuan has not been released globally at the same time, and now he has only begun to negotiate overseas distribution.
However, with such a box office performance, countless overseas theaters have already targeted him.
Not to mention in China, it is easy to get the right to release.
At this time, troubles are also coming, in addition to the various smears on the Internet as always, the consumer protection agency under the Ministry of Commerce came to the door and accused "Escape from Desperate Town" of selling two copies of one product separately, and there was fraud of consumers.
Needless to say, Simon Schbeder is the ghost again.
Poseidon, as a distribution company, immediately stepped forward to deal with it, and Brett also knew that with the energy of Li Zixuan, a producer in Hollywood, he would definitely not be able to handle this kind of thing, and he still had to come.
"Jack, I held them down for the time being, but they didn't drop the charges, saying they had received a complaint from a consumer. ”
Brett quickly informed Li Zixuan that he didn't expect Li Zixuan to have any ideas, and the business set would definitely not be able to play with others.
But these dog days are really good at doing things, who stipulated that a movie can't be released with two endings?
"Give them two million for tea and let them fuck off! I don't want to have a long fight with them. Let's not talk about whether it is illegal to release two versions of the movie, it is also the fault of the Film Association, it is okay if the law does not prohibit it, and the fault is not me.
In addition, I didn't use any way to induce consumers to watch two versions of the movie, and I have already publicly stated on social platforms that I will release two versions on DVD, if they don't give up, I will enter the legal process to see if they can remove my movie?
If my movie is taken off the shelves, then I will also do things and bring rhythm, doesn't it mean that "Battleship of the Pacific" is racist? I'll see if it will be taken off the shelves, and if the Cordilles Mansion will be set on fire. ”
Li Zixuan said angrily, even if "Escape from Desperate Town" was taken off the shelves, he didn't care, he had a script.
“...... Okay, I'll try their attitude as you say. ”
Brett had a headache, this guy just refused to stop, and he was already thinking about inciting people to burn down other people's film and television buildings.
However, with his sense of smell, he felt that things would not go on so easily, after all, someone must be working behind the scenes, otherwise who would come up and ask for trouble for no reason?
However, they Poseidon are not vegetarians, and now that "Get Out of Desperate Town" is all kinds of popularity, how can they make people move their own cash cows?
Now is it in North America to make efforts, and the overseas distribution of Li Zixuan still depends on them!
With such a popular project, whoever can't get along with Li Zixuan can't get along with them!
Anyway, their distribution business is basically on the same front, in order to maximize coverage.
