Chapter 545: Bad High School Student VS Grim Reaper Elementary School Student (Ask for Subscription)
"Hot Blooded High School", a film series based on the best-selling manga of the same name, released its first in 2007.
At that time, the first part starring Kiyoshi Sakamoto, the "strongest newcomer in history", caused a huge sensation as soon as it was released.
The wonderful fights, the blood between men, and the handsome lines all attracted a lot of heated discussions about the movie "Hot Blooded College".
In particular, the hairstyles of several leading actors have also become the objects of imitation by fans.
With the support of many die-hard fans of the original comics, as well as the strong recommendation of film critics, "Hot Blooded College", which has both word-of-mouth and box office, finally won an amazing box office of 3.7 billion two months after its release!
also won the fifth place in the 2007 Japanese live-action movie box office annual list.
And after a lapse of two years, the sequel to the movie also met the audience in the spring of 2009.
This time, with the word-of-mouth and good feedback of the previous work as a foreshadowing, the distribution company is very optimistic about the box office prospects of the sequel, and it is expected to reach a new high.
Therefore, the number of screens obtained by "Hot Blood College 2" is even more than that of its predecessor, reaching 360!
With the increase in the number of screens, naturally, the box office has also increased a lot.
In the first weekend, 750 million was won in two days!
Compared with the box office results of the previous work in the same period, the box office achieved by the sequel is 120% of the previous work!
Such a good result is largely due to the classification of the sequel, which has changed from R18 in the previous work to PG12.
You know, 15 or 16-year-old teenagers are synonymous with enthusiasm.
For a film like "Bloody College", which gathers friendship, fighting, and youth, I have been looking forward to it for a long time.
The previous work can only be watched with the company of parents.
And in this work, you can make an appointment with three or five friends and enter the theater together.
This is also the reason why the number of young people who enter the theater to watch movies has skyrocketed all of a sudden!
The skyrocketing audience has brought higher box office figures than in the same period.
However, compared with the 600 million in the first week of the previous work, there is more room for the champion of the weekly box office list, although "Hot Blood College 2" also won the weekly box office list with a first-week box office of 750 million.
However, under the attack of two strong opponents, the championship of "Hot Blood College 2" looks a little unstable.
These two strong enemies are the historical blockbuster "Red Cliff: Down", which was released a week earlier than "Hot Blood High School 2", and the "Grim Reaper Elementary School" "Detective Conan Theater Version", which was released on the same day, one a year, for more than ten consecutive years, and was deeply loved by fans!
It's also interesting to say that the three movies "Hot Blood High School 2" and "Red Cliff: Down" and "Detective Conan Theatrical Version" are all from the same film distribution company.
Toho!
The difference between the three is just that the distribution company of "Red Cliff: Down" is not only Dongbao Donghe, but also Ai Hui is mixed in it.
However, the situation of the movie being distributed and forming a fight ring is too common for Toho, who has a big family.
Therefore, "Hot Blood College 2", a bad high school student fight movie, was still placed in the schedule full of strong enemies, even if it was promoted vigorously in the early stage.
I have to say that the weekend of April 18th and 19th can be called a "prolific" week.
There are more than a dozen movies released at the same time!
And the "heart of Sima Zhao" of the issuing company is well known to passers-by.
Due to the imminent arrival of the "May Day" Golden Week, the weekend holiday for nearly a week will definitely be a great opportunity to make money.
And the most popular program on the day off, naturally, there is the option of watching a movie.
Therefore, many films are taking advantage of this opportunity to first appear on the stage of the theater chain and fight a sentinel battle!
Among them, the most high-profile showdown is the fierce collision between "bad high school students" and "Grim Reaper elementary school students"!
Released on the same day, two movies of different genres, in the first week, were very strong.
If it weren't for "Hot Blood High School 2", this week's box office champion would have been easily taken away by "Grim Reaper Elementary Schoolboy" Conan Edogawa.
The thirteenth theatrical version of the series "Dark Stalker" of "Detective Conan" played better than expected.
In the first two days of its release, the box office received 590 million yen, finally stopping the decline of the box office for three consecutive years.
On the box office list, it narrowly defeated the historical blockbuster "Red Cliff: Down", which won a box office of 560 million, second only to "Bloody College 2", which won a box office of 700 million, and became the runner-up at the box office in a single week.
Compared with "Red Cliff: Down", which won 850 million in the first week and 560 million in the second week, the greater threat to "Hot Blood College 2" is the cartoon suitable for the whole family, "Detective Conan".
Watching movies has always been a popular pastime for young people in Japan.
What's more, May Day is also Japan's Movie Day, and the ticket price is discounted by 1,000 yen, which attracts many people who usually don't watch movies, or don't have time to watch movies, to go into the cinema to watch movies.
Of course, the picture of the whole family going out together can also be seen everywhere.
As a result, even if the rating of "Hot Blood High School 2" has changed from R18 in the previous work to PG12, it is still no match for "Detective Conan Theatrical Version" that can be watched by the whole family.
However, in the last week before entering the May Day, on the latest box office list of this week, "Hot Blood High School 2" still relied on the appeal of handsome guys such as Kiyoshi Sakamoto, Takayuki Yamada, and Haruma Miura to retain the championship.
On the weekend of the second week after the release of "Bloody High School 2", "Bloody High School 2", which is still strong, beat "Detective Conan Theatrical Version" again with a box office of 600 million!
However, this time it was only a narrow victory.
Because, the weekend box office of "Detective Conan Theatrical Version" did not fall, but maintained a box office of 590 million!
You must know that the box office of the first weekend of a general movie is the highest two days, and the further it goes, the weekend box office will only fall more and more, and there will rarely be movies that grow against the trend.
However, little doesn't mean nothing.
The pure love movie that once caused a social wave in 2007, "Love in the Sky" starring Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Yui Aragaki achieved a contrarian growth of 700 million in the first week and 800 million in the second week!
However, what happens to oneself and what happens to one's opponent are really two different concepts.
May 1st.
When Kiyoshi Sakamoto opened the late April issue of "Movie Shunbao" and saw the slight box office gap between the two, he couldn't help but analyze it.
"Is it only 10 million short of the box office?"
"It seems that the champion throne that has been sitting for two weeks is about to be taken away by that Grim Reaper schoolboy... ”
With a whisper, he closed the magazine in his hand.
"It's none of my business, though. ”
"After all, for the next few months, I'm going to go into retreat mode without asking about the world... ”
