Comments about the "crescent" are overwhelming, and the voices of praise in it can almost be ignored. This is also the worst reputation among Lee Joon-yi's movies in 2009. It would be conservative to say "worst", but it is more appropriate to say "catastrophic".
At the same time, the ratings on IMDB have also been polarized, and "New Moon" has created an ultra-low score of 4.5, and it is likely to continue to decline, and it is estimated that it will be even more terrifying than "Twilight". However, if you take a closer look at the content of IMDB's ratings, you can see that 35% of the respondents give 10 points, and 40% give 1 points, which is very polarized, while the average score of male viewers is only 2.2 points, and the average score of female viewers has come to 8 points, and the differentiation situation is even more serious than that of "twilight sè".
At the same time, the audience structure of "New Moon" has also undergone subtle changes, firstly, the decline in the number of men, which once again shows the difficulty of "Twilight" resonating among men, and secondly, the average age of women, in which girls under the age of 18 still occupy the majority, and "New Moon" However, it includes girls under the age of 20, white-collar workers around the age of 30, women around the age of 40, and even a small number of women around the age of 50, which also shows the incomparable super popularity of the movie among the female group.
Hollywood studios have always been serious, and men between the ages of thirteen and thirty-five, as well as family-oriented audiences, have been the mainstays of the American box office. Therefore, the major studios are dedicated to serving these rice class owners, and the movies are mainly action, comedy, horror and animation. From the fact that the summer file is always dominated by blockbusters led by action and technology, it can be seen who is God in the minds of American film companies. But in recent years, this situation has begun to change quietly, and studios have begun to realize that female audiences are also worth pleasing because they can really pay without blinking an eye and not feeling distressed.
"The Devil Wears Prada" in 2007, "Yù. Wangdu" in 2008, and of course, "Twilight Sè" at the end of 2008, these films were all supported by female audiences, and this year, the phenomenon seems to be even more pronounced. In 2009, female audiences used tickets to win out the long-dormant Sandra Bullock, starring in "Fake Marriage" as the second biggest box office dark horse this year after "The Hangover", and similarly, they continued to support Meryl Streep's "Julie and Julia" with tickets.
At a time when almost no male audience was willing to go into the cinema to watch "New Moon", female audiences proved that they could also dominate the box office, and even professional critics could not express their shock when they fell through three pairs of glasses.
Last year, "Twilight Sè" was scolded, and the global box office exceeded 500 million, leaving all professional film critics speechless, this is no longer a box office dark horse, but a box office anomaly. This summer, "The Hangover" achieved the most jaw-dropping box office results of 2009 amid a lot of applause. Originally, professionals who have experienced countless winds and waves feel that nothing can surprise them, even if the vision of "twilight" reappears, but they forget that there is never a shortage of incredible things in the world, and they are always frightened by new phenomena to dislocate their jaws.
This time, in the midst of the overwhelming scolding, "New Moon" successfully made all the professionals angrily break the pen in their hands, and even if they fell through three pairs of eyes in a row, they still couldn't express the shock in their hearts
On Friday, November 20, "New Moon" officially premiered in more than 4,000 movie theaters across the United States.
At midnight when it premiered at midnight, "New Moon" swept $26 million, rewriting the record of $22 million set by "Harry and the Blood Prince" this summer, and successfully went down in history. 26 million US dollars, the first in the history of the North American midnight box office, you must know that the cost of "New Moon" is only 50 million US dollars, this figure is enough for professionals to break the first pen.
Friday's premiere box office reached $75 million, breaking the record for the highest single-day box office in North America and the highest box office on the opening day set by "The Dark Knight" last July. It is worth mentioning that driven by the "New Moon", the total box office in North America on November 20 exceeded 100 million US dollars, which is also the best result ever in the same period.
"Twilight" recouped its costs on the premiere day, and "New Moon" went one step further and made a profit on the premiere day.
After Friday, the weekend is still a good time for the box office to soar, and the competitors of "New Moon" include "Weakness", which was released on the same day, and this film starring Sandra Bullock is fighting for next year's Oscars, with an investment of less than 30 million, and is generally not favored by the media. However, if you have to choose between "new moon" and "weakness", presumably professionals will choose the latter.
In addition, the biggest competitor of the "New Moon" on Thanksgiving, the disaster movie "2012" released last week, as well as movies such as "A Christmas Carol" and "The Great Fox Dad" will also compete on the box office charts.
In the case that the competitors are not very strong, everyone began to predict whether the box office of "New Moon" could exceed $100 million in the first three days of the opening weekend, and if so, what would be achieved in the end. Now the North American opening weekend box office record is held by "Batman Prequel: The Dark Knight", with a $158 million record, which is the best in the group.
Undoubtedly, on the two days of the weekend, "New Moon" won a big game, but the box office result of $155 million was enough to make all the media exclaim "hell", this result replaced the previous "Spider-Man 3" as the runner-up in the North American box office record in the first week, only behind "Batman Prequel: The Dark Knight".
Even if everyone is confident in the results of "New Moon", no one thought that the box office in the first week would be so exaggerated, which was created in the midst of accusations from professionals, which is even more incredible. First, the No. 1 box office on the first opening day in history, the No. 1 single-day box office in history, and the fastest film in history to reach a box office of $100 million, this series of titles made "New Moon" successfully make countless film critics have the urge to smash the computer after only three days of release.
Under such an aura, the "weakness" of investing less than 30 million to achieve a box office of 34 million US dollars is not so conspicuous. Although the media have also noticed that Sandra Bullock has achieved a big explosion this year, and the "fake marriage" released in the summer vacation has achieved a box office of 160 million US dollars in North America, becoming the second dark horse of the summer file. Now, the "weakness" of sports-themed movies that is not taken seriously has once again become a dark horse, and while the box office is successful, the word-of-mouth has also achieved great success. This allowed Sandra Bullock to create a new peak in her career as an actress.
But all this, in front of the "new moon" is a floating cloud. Including "2012", which plummeted at the box office, after "New Moon" and "Weakness", it ranked third and did not receive much media attention.
For the madness of the "new moon", the media can only sigh, "Ladies, good job"
After the madness of the first week, the United States ushered in the Thanksgiving holiday, and it was also a good time for box office growth. "New Moon" ushered in new challenges, including the comedy movie "Old Guy", the disaster movie "Doomsday Danger", and the duel that the Korean media was looking forward to finally arrived, "Ninja Assassin" was officially released, Rin vs. Lee Joon-yi, who won and who lost, after two years of waiting, it is finally about to officially come to fruition.
The box office of the first week of "New Moon" really scared the Korean media, and the series of historical records was indeed very tense, so that almost everyone lost their words, and even the criticism of the film itself was much less convincing. But the Korean media still holds hope, hoping that "Ninja Assassin" will have a good enough reputation and create a good enough box office to really be a hit.
Before the arrival of the second weekend, that is, on the Friday of the second week, on the seventh day of the release of "New Moon", the cumulative box office officially exceeded 200 million US dollars, which is second only to "Batman: The Dark Knight" and "Transformers" on the list of "the fastest box office to reach 200 million US dollars".
By the end of its second week, "New Moon" grossed $45 million, easily dominating the North American box office charts for the second week in a row. This achievement once again left a series of names in the film history of "New Moon", and it can be ranked fourth in film history on the "five-day box office list of Thanksgiving weekend".
Ten days after its release and a box office of $245 million, "New Moon" once again left everyone speechless with real figures. And this result has surpassed the box office data of "Twilight Sè" in North America and has become Lee Joon-yi's highest-grossing film in North America.
The "weakness" released at the same time as "New Moon" also became more and more courageous, and the box office rose instead of falling in the second week, creating a miracle that was not big or small. And the reputation of "weakness" is a very good evaluation, and even the distributor Warner Bros. began to prepare for the Academy Award for this film.
The "Old Guy", which was released this week, although it brought together two old superstars, John Travolta and Robin Williams, was very mediocre at the box office, and the word-of-mouth was even more comprehensively criticized, and under the halo of "New Moon" and "Weakness", the film was buried.
"Ninja Assassin" starring Rin was released in 2,500 theaters at a cost of $40 million, produced by Warner Bros., and was released on Thanksgiving, a relatively uncompetitive schedule, in the hope of achieving good results without pressure. But as a result, it was a complete failure.
