Of course, on the whole, "Demon War" must not be considered a bad movie!

However, Lin Xiao knew that "Demon War" was basically going to be cool.

Because before coming, a group of bigwigs in the film and television industry were angry, how do you play by yourself, and you can do your own thing within the rules, but people like Cheng Tian who break the rules as soon as they come, you have to give some color to see, and you have to let them pay the tuition fees, don't you?

If "Demon War" is really a wonderful big production, then it will be difficult for everyone to really hack it even if they do it, but in fact, although "Demon War" is not a bad movie, it is definitely not an excellent big production.

The main reason is that there are many dialogues in "Demon War", not to mention the public, that is, Lin Xiao and the others are a little GET and can't get to the point.

Take the Star Wars series in North America, which has become a kind of cultural movie, such a movie is naturally very marketable in North America, and has even been put on the altar, but in China, to be honest, many people are just a little impressed, but they are really not too interested.

Because, when the Star Wars culture was flourishing, China was still a movie desert, and by the time Hollywood blockbusters came in, the Star Wars series had already declined.

What's more, "Demon War" is a best-selling adaptation that is not a top-notch one.

That, in China, not many people have seen it at all, it is not the kind of global popular IP, and it only has many fans in North America.

But domestic, hehe!

Sure enough, after the premiere of "Demon War", countless bad reviews began to appear on the Internet, and the media also criticized them.

Although "Demon War" also scattered a lot of money, it had little effect!

Of course, this can't say that "Demon War" is cold, it's just that the quality of this film is not good, so word of mouth is very important.

So at the very least, it can be said that this movie is already half cool.

This can be seen from the film arrangement.

The film "Demon War" on the first day of the Spring Festival schedule could not even get more than 20% of the film schedule, and this was also the result of the release of Huaying.

The premiere of Qin Gang's "Metamorphosis" is different again, he is worthy of being the former king of the Chinese New Year stalls, even if he leaves for a period of time, he still does not change his true colors when he comes out of the mountain again.

Of course, the cost of "Metamorphosis" is not high, but Qin Gang himself is a great director that should not be underestimated.

In Lin Xiao's view, the biggest opponent of "Old Boy" is not two science fiction films, nor "Demon War", which was hacked into carbon, but "Metamorphosis".

Because the reputation of "Metamorphosis" is really good! At least it is the best word-of-mouth among these Chinese New Year movies.

Then the premiere of "Old Boy" was long overdue!

"Old Boy" is only a small-budget film after all, although the publicity is good, but it is still only a small cost.

Although Chen He has had a box office masterpiece of 1 billion, it is undeniable that "Old Boy" is inferior to several other blockbusters in terms of investment and cast.

However, at the premiere of "Old Boy", many people still came to cheer, after all, Ling Xiao Pavilion has not come for nothing all these years.

There are several giants in the film and television industry alone.

It can be regarded as a loser and not a loser.

"Old Boy" is a drama, and the main focus is feelings, although interspersed with some funny, but more sensational.

As a result, the reputation of "Old Boy" is quite good, of course, because the screening and premiere of "Old Boy" invited fans aged 25-35.

This group of people is very easy to resonate with "Old Boy", because this can be said to be their era.

If it is "Huaguo Partner", I am afraid that the effect may not be so good.

The film ends with a song of the same name from "Old Boy", and the final ending leaves a suspense, which will be revealed when "The First Voice" starts.

Soon, the Spring Festival is coming!

The battle of the Spring Festival stalls also kicked off.

New Year's Day.

"Robot Love" and "Metamorphosis" received the most films, both exceeding 20%, the former 24%, and the latter 23%.

After all, the head of "Demon War" can be said to be the most scheduled for this year's Spring Festival, but although Chengtian Media relied on Huaying to get 20% of the film schedule, other film giants directly gave "Demon War" the lowest film schedule.

Then there are "Time Cops" and "Old Boys".

"Time and Space Police" was not favored by the theater because of its poor reputation, and only got 15% of the film schedule.

Although "Old Boy" has a good reputation, it is only a small-budget film after all, and the production cost is not even a fraction of the other films, so in the end, it is already a good treatment to get 12% of the film schedule.

These five movies have divided more than 90% of the film schedule.

Other low-budget films and films in theaters are almost negligible.

As a result, the box office on the first day was newly released, and the daily box office on the first day of this year's Lunar New Year dropped a lot compared with last year. It's less than 1 billion! This really surprised many people!

You must know that the total ticket sales of Huaguori on the first day of the Lunar New Year last year exceeded 1 billion!

This year, we have not even been able to meet this benchmark.

The main reason is that this year, strictly speaking, there is no real blockbuster movie. Or that there is no one that really dominates the Spring Festival stalls.

Among them, the first place is "Robot Love" with 230 million, and the second place is "Metamorphosis" with 190 million.

If the box office of the first two is not too unexpected, then the third place is greatly beyond everyone's expectations.

"Old Boy", which has only 12% of the film schedule, actually stepped on the face of "Time and Space Police" and "Demon War" and climbed to the third place on the list.

145 million!

Although the box office of "Time and Space Police" and "Demon War" also exceeded 100 million on the first day, they can already announce their withdrawal from the competition for the champion of the Spring Festival file.

"Time and Space Police" 118 million, "Demon War" 120 million.

No one expected that among the five blockbusters, "Old Boy" was actually the most eye-catching.

And in terms of word of mouth, "Old Boy" also dominates!

The worst thing that was scolded was not "Time and Space Police", but "Demon War"!

"What the hell, I don't understand it at all. ”

"I'm also drunk, the heroine is actually engaged in it with three male supporting actors, it's just that I have it with the protagonist, I really admire the foreigner's ability to bear it!"

"By the way, what kind of co-production is this?

Then there is "Time and Space Police", and the shortcomings of propaganda are clearly highlighted.

"It's enough to watch the trailer, but I'm stupid enough to buy a ticket to watch the full version. ”

"So, just like a woman, sometimes, it's good to look at the back, so it's better to leave a thought for yourself, but what do you want to do to see the front?"
