Section 543: Nuclear bombs
"I don't know where I spent all this money, I was going to watch "Jurassic Park" in the name of Duane, but after watching it, I came back and sat in front of the computer, and I couldn't even remember what the specific plot of the movie was, let alone the characters or anything, it was completely a saliva movie. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info disappointed, very disappointed, I didn't see anything in the whole film except for the special effects, Duane is also depraved, I don't recommend watching. ”
One thing can never be loved by everyone, and the same is true of Jurassic Park.
After watching the premiere for the first time, the soybean oil that returned home has begun to upload evaluations and scores, and unlike the applause in the premiere hall, there are a lot of complaints.
For example, the short review above criticized "Jurassic Park" as worthless, and the score also scored a low score of 1. And underneath this short comment, someone soon choked up with the post.
"Then what else do you want? Isn't the shocking special effects enough? The special effects and imagination alone are enough for this movie to be great!"
There are also some film reviews that are praised from the positive.
"With a smooth story, effortless shots, stunning visuals, and a bucket of peanuts and a big glass of Coke, this is a movie that definitely deserves the ticket price, and the best money I've ever felt spent on a movie ticket, Duane gave me a clear picture of where I was spending my money on the ticket. ”
"I dare say that all the people who give bad reviews are people who didn't go to the IMAX theater to watch the movie, if you go to the IMAX theater to watch this movie, you will know what it means to be shocked! Oh, I am still immersed in those shocking images, Velociraptor, Tyrannosaurus rex, Berserk rex, Stegosaurus...... I think I've fallen in love with these things, they're alive in front of my eyes! I highly recommend that everyone should see this film once, and definitely in the IMAX room!"
And after a night of gaming, the score of "Jurassic Park" on Douban was temporarily fixed at 7.3 points, which is neither bad nor good, a passing score. Although the rating is not high, the number of people participating in the rating is a little terrifying, and in just one night, the number of ratings has reached 56,000!
Although this is because on the first day of the Lunar New Year, everyone has time, but this number is still a little scary, and several films released during the same period, such as "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb", "Ip Man" and the like, the number of ratings is only about 10,000 each overnight, and their ratings are not high, one is 6.9, one is 7.1, and together with "Jurassic Park", they are all dangling on the passing line.
Chinese New Year movies are like this, they are all going for business, you can't expect New Year movies to give you a deep play, and what everyone originally cares about is the box office.
Among this year's Chinese New Year films, there are three most promising at the box office, namely "Jurassic Park", "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb", and "Ip Man".
Needless to say, "Jurassic Park" is the biggest selling point is Du An's ultra-high production cost of 600 million, and the selling point of "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" lies in Feng Xiaogang, who is a veteran of Chinese New Year films, who started professionally making Chinese New Year films, and his New Year films can be said to be a dish for the New Year in the past few years. And "Ip Man" can be said to be the least optimistic of the three, director Ye Weixin is far less than Du An, Feng Xiaogang is not as big as Du An, Feng Xiaogang, starring Donnie Yen is far less famous than Jia Hongsheng , Ge You, the only outstanding selling point is probably to stiffly get close to the deceased kung fu superstar Bruce Lee in terms of subject matter.
As for other films, such as "Happy Events of the Yellow River", "Love Story", etc., needless to say, they are obviously not at the same level as these three, and they obviously have to accompany them. And after the box office statistics on the first Wednesday came out, it was both unexpected and expected.
As expected, the gap between the fourth and third places in the weekly box office ranking of the week is very large, and other films other than the three films do play a role as a companion, and the box office of "Ip Man" is indeed as expected by the media, at the bottom of the three films, and unexpectedly, the gap between "Ip Man" and "If You Are the Truth, Do Not Disturb" is not as big as people think - in today's era of Hong Kong film decline, this film directed by a second-tier director, The film supported by second-tier actors actually achieved a high box office of 280 million on the first Wednesday! and "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" achieved a box office of 350 million on the first Wednesday.
In people's expectations, among the three films, "Do Not Disturb" and "Jurassic Park" are of the same level, but in the first Wednesday, "Do Not Disturb" did not pull the gap to the gap of more than 100 million as expected, and the box office performance of "Ip Man" was much better than everyone expected!
And the words of "Jurassic Park"...... It managed to open up a gap with these two films.
510 million, this is the total box office of the first Wednesday day of "Jurassic Park", successfully opening a gap of more than 100 million with the second place, and Duane also successfully refreshed his first Wednesday box office record, and at the same time, after half a year, once again refreshed the world record of the first Wednesday day box office.
The record was refreshed again, and the entertainment media suddenly became excited, even on the first day of the Lunar New Year, when the news was full of New Year's topics, they also managed to kill a large number of worlds and dominate the version in large quantities.
Before the media and the crowd were worried about whether Duane's new film would repeat the mistakes of "Truman's World", and fell into a trough after the high box office of "Liberation Day" ("The Lion King"), but Duane still did not have habitual impotence after all, and finally did not fall into the box office trough again. And not only did it not fall into a trough, looking at the current situation, as long as the overseas box office is not too bad, it is very possible to surpass "The Lion King" and set a new record!
And when the box office of the first Wednesday in the world was counted half a day late, all the people who saw that number for the first time were stupid.
Without exception, they asked the people around them if they were dazzled, and then asked the people above if they had made a mistake with the data, and even called their overseas agencies to ask about the authenticity of the figure, asked and asked, confirmed and confirmed, until they were extremely impatient that day, they finally accepted the number.
1.56 billion.
This is a beautiful number for other films, even the global box office is frozen here, and it is just the box office data created by "Jurassic Park" in 3 days...... It doesn't even include the domestic ones.
It's not that people in the media haven't seen the crazy situation in the overseas market, in the time of "Liberation Day", there has been a situation where the overseas box office is significantly ahead of the domestic box office, but 1.5 billion in 3 days...... What the are you talking about myths?!
It was a real number, but it made everyone start to doubt life, and when the media published this result in the newspaper and the world, the people of the whole country began to doubt life.
1.56 billion in 3 days? not including the domestic box office? Did these newspapers move the decimal point back by one more place when they printed the newspaper? !
But one newspaper can be misprinted, and ten newspapers can't be misprinted, right?
"Jurassic Park" is like a ...... No, like ten nuclear bombs, completely detonated the global market.
"Let the World Go Crazy", "Dinosaurs Eliminate Cultural Barriers", "2 Billion in 3 Days, When Will a New Horror Record Be Broken?", "Industrial Light & Magic Creates a New Era of Cinema", "King of the World - Duane", ......
Even during the Chinese New Year, Duane and his films were wrapped up in the terrifying box office that exploded the sky, but they still managed to fight their way through the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year and win the headlines of major newspapers. Thanks to the overwhelming newspaper reports, a large number of fresh audiences continue to flock to the cinema to watch this movie, especially under the reports of some media, many people think that "only by going to the IMAX theater can you fully appreciate the amazing charm of "Jurassic Park", "it is an unprecedented movie-watching experience", "like opening the door to a new world", resulting in the IMAX halls in major cities are full of customers - "Jurassic Park" has landed in all IMAX halls in the country.
Since the opening of these IMAX halls, due to the high ticket prices, the seating performance has been very poor, and a hall that can seat half of the people is already a very good business, but now it is difficult to find a ticket. In the past, the ticket price was high to nearly 100 yuan, but now it is like not wanting money, and there are many viewers who can't buy tickets can't bear to itch around the hall.
There's no way, there are too few IMAX halls, there are only a few in one city, and there are no IMAX halls in small cities, so it's not enough to grab them. At this time, it is more convenient for overseas audiences: overseas, because the development of the film market is not as good as that of China, many places have directly skipped the era of standard screens and entered the IMAX era, which has led to the number of IMAX screens in many overseas markets is more than that of China, for example, in the United States, the number of IMAX theaters is more than twice that of China, and a large number of IMAX halls may also be one of the factors that make the overseas box office so perverted.
In this situation of not being able to buy tickets, the audience is troubled, but the theater owners are very happy, and they begin to use their brains to think about whether to open more IMAX halls in the coming year.
After seeing this series of situations, some media later reported that the New Year of 2009 was called the "Year of Dinosaurs", which is quite accurate.
The box office performance of "Do Not Disturb" is good, and the box office performance of "Ip Man" is even more surprising, but now, no one is happy to pay attention to them, and everyone's eyes are attracted by the completely unreasonable box office performance and huge market sensation caused by "Jurassic Park".
And now, no one will worry about whether "Jurassic Park" can surpass "The Lion King" at the box office, and there is no suspense anymore.
The only thing that still has suspense is probably how many billions "Jurassic Park" intends to stop at what point.
