Chapter 267: The National Day file begins
On September 29, 2010, the National Day file officially began.
There is a seven-day long holiday on the National Day, so the box office of movies released at this time of year is concentrated in these seven days, and the box office of these seven days often accounts for more than 70% of the total box office.
Just like last year's National Day file "Tangshan Earthquake", it won a total of 500 million box office before the 8th, and then gained 300 million box office again on weekdays, accounting for 63% of the box office in a few days of holidays.
Even the high-reputation "Tangshan Earthquake" inevitably halved at the box office on weekdays, not to mention other movies, it would be good if there was no cliff-like decline.
Therefore, the three movies in this year's National Day file, "The Legend of the White Snake" produced by Bernard, "Three Dozen White Bone Spirits" produced by Tengxun and "Detective Chinatown" by Tianmu Company were all released at the same time on September 29.
There were no other movies released at the same time, and these three movies almost occupied all the schedules.
"Three Dozen White Bone Spirits" gathers the three major stars of Peng Yuyan, Chen Qiaoen, and Xiao Shenyang, plus it is the theme of Journey to the West, so naturally Qing has high hopes from the theater chain, ranking first with 36% of the film schedule.
"Detective Chinatown" brought together the two major comedy stars Deng Chao and Chen He, plus Liu Shishi, who starred in "Lu Bu", to play the female lead, which occupied 33% of the film schedule on the first day of release.
Although "The Legend of the White Snake" is based on a famous folk call, starring a kung fu superstar like Li Lianjie, it only got 29% of the film schedule.
As for the other movies, they can only share the remaining two percent of the film schedule.
This is the role of IP, if "Detective Chinatown" is not from Li Mu's company, without Deng Chao and Chen He, it will be replaced by a small and medium-sized company, unknown second- and third-tier actors.
Not to mention 30% of the film schedule, it would be good to have 10% of the film schedule in the highly competitive and popular schedule.
Facts have also proved that the choice of the theater chain is not wrong, and the three blockbusters have achieved satisfactory box office on the first day of release.
"Three Dozen White Bone Spirits" scored 80 million on the first day of release and became the box office champion of the day.
"Detective Chinatown" ranked second with a box office of 50 million.
"The Legend of the White Snake" had a box office of 30 million on the first day, ranking third on the box office list on the day.
This figure is in line with most people's predictions, the first two Journey to the West-themed movies won 1.1 billion and 1.2 billion respectively, and this "Three Dozen White Bone Spirits" is well-made, and it will naturally not be bad.
The question now is whether the National Day holiday can fully unleash its potential.
The production and publicity cost of "Detective Chinatown" is only 150 million, so the box office of 50 million is naturally very good, after all, the box office of "Tangshan Earthquake" on the first day is only 30 million.
"The Legend of the White Snake" can win 30 million at the box office, in fact, thanks to two other movies, and many of those two movies in the prime time of the night have been full, and there is no way to go to see other movies.
After the first day, the Douban score was also quickly released.
"Detective Chinatown" ranked first with 8.3 copies.
"Three Dozen White Bone Spirits" has a slightly worse reputation, only seven .1, but this data is enough for a commercial film, as long as it stabilizes above six points when painting.
The score of "The Legend of the White Snake" is only 5.8, and there is not even a score of six on the first day of release, and the audience is scolded, and it is foreseeable that the box office will not be ideal in the next few days.
"The National Day file has begun, and yesterday I couldn't wait to watch these three movies, and I watched them for nearly five hours. Why is it five hours, because "The Legend of the White Snake" I saw half of it and left, I was going to endure it and read it, but I really couldn't help it!"
"As expected, "Detective Chinatown" is a surprise, and "The Legend of the White Snake" is a fright!"
"Huang Shengyi's gun pointed the White Lady, Ma De acted too sassy!"
"The white snake was filmed as a huge earthworm, and there are only a few seconds of footage in the water flooding Jinshan, and most of the other effects are not as good as the promotional videos of middle- and lower-level online games, and sometimes they are still stuck, and at that moment I thought I was sitting at home facing the five-year-old machine!"
"The decent Journey to the West movie, Xiao Shenyang's Bajie is too funny, the commotion when he appeared on the stage is simply squirting, Chen Qiaoen is the biggest highlight of the film, the cold and glamorous shape, a black dress simply stunned the friends around him!"
"Every gesture is amorous, Chen Qiaoen's version of the white bone spirit can be called the sexiest female villain in history!"
"I have to say that Chen Qiaoen's version of the white bone essence is really amazing, the smoky makeup and poisoned lips that are difficult for ordinary beauties to control look delicate and domineering under her eyes that look at all beings. I can't help but want to exclaim, "Your Majesty, please enjoy ......." "It turns out that there are big goblins who grind people!"
"Without the touching that Jiang Liu'er and the Great Sage brought me, this is a strange monkey, and he has slowly turned into a fighting Buddha!"
"The perfect combination of comedy elements and suspenseful detective!"
"I never expected that "Detective Chinatown" would give me an unexpected surprise. Wrapped in the shell of comedy, it is a very solid inference detective movie. There are secret rooms to kill, with ingenious design and meticulous reasoning, and even multiple reversals. There are incompetent and stupid cops, funny Maori Kogoro-style stupid detectives, and naturally Charlotte-style witty teenagers, as well as a villain with an unexpectedly high IQ. ”
"The most terrifying laugh in 2010! That little girl's evil smile at the end definitely scared you!"
"I was caught off guard and was scared out of a cold sweat, and now I still have a numb scalp when I think back to that scene!"
.......
As one viewer's comment, "Three Dozen White Bone Spirits" did not bring much surprise to the audience, except for Xiao Shenyang's occasional teasing, there was only the amazing Chen Qiaoen.
However, after watching this movie, most people have an opinion, Chen Qiaoen is indeed worthy of praise, whether it is her image, her performance, her costumes, or her transformation special effects, they are all worthy of praise.
And then, it's gone......
When all the reviews of a movie focus on one character, especially one villain, the film has failed.
"The Legend of the White Snake" has enough slots, whether it is special effects, performances, or plots, there is nothing to take a shot, plus "Green Snake" is in front of the jade, the result can be imagined.
"Detective Chinatown" has no special effects, nor is it a 3D blockbuster, what can attract the audience is the plot and performance.
Although the cases in it are not necessarily very clever, they are basically logical, there are no hard injuries, and the two comics are funny throughout the whole process, and the success is not accidental.
