Chapter 191: A Different Kind of Win-Win
"How's it going? I knew you wanted to come and see. Chen Tian, who had just walked to the door of the study, saw Scarlett sitting in front of the computer. Johnson.
Scarlett still has the sweat of running on her body, and she is in a tight sweatshirt to outline the perfect figure.
Chen Tian couldn't help but take a few more looks: "I thought you went to take a bath." β
"You don't have any, I'm reading the evaluation for you, guess what?" Scarlett had a smile on her face, even though she didn't know about the box office either.
But judging from the comments on the Internet, she knew that "Little Sunshine Beauty" was successful this time.
"Your expression tells me the answer, it seems to be good, and I also saw it in the newspaper and it seems to be good." Chen Tian walked in and stood next to Scarlett.
There were several web pages on the computer screen, and the first one was the Rotten Tomatoes website.
Chen Tian's eyes were shocked by the freshness of 94%, he never imagined that it would be so high, and the number of evaluations exceeded 5,000 people.
You must know that such a high level of freshness is the highest this year, and even in recent years it is rare.
The final freshness of the memory "Little Sunshine Beauty" is also as high as 91%, and compared with the original version of later generations, at least this score shows that his shooting is not bad.
In the film review area, Cheryl Madman said: "It's very interesting, I like the detail of the cart.
Pushing the cart together, huddled in the car together, facing difficulties together, dancing on the pageant stage together, and finally driving to the sunshine together, thank you Justin for bringing me a warm video. β
One of the members below wrote: "A touch of warmth, not pretentious." It would not be too much for such a film to win a 'Best Picture' at the Oscars. β
Seeing this evaluation, Chen Tian couldn't help but think of Harvey. Weinstein. I think such a good reputation may be able to help him a little.
There are some bad reviews compared to most of the good reviews. A man named David Magician wrote, "This is a film that makes me sleepy. I don't understand why the people around me like it so much, and they cry about it.
Maybe I should reflect on myself, but I can't find a reason to reflect on myself. β
Looking at this seemingly bad evaluation, Chen Tian couldn't help laughing, in the end, this bad evaluation changed direction and became a recognition of the film.
"You're happy, aren't you, but it's just the beginning, maybe you can look at the reviews of the professionals, and by the way, it's 8.4 on IMDB.
The vast majority of them are praised. There is a "That Touch of Sunshine" that is really well written.
I feel like he can read your heart, and that makes me feel a little jealous. β
Hearing Scarlett's words, Chen Tian smiled even more happily, he thought that Scarlett was joking on purpose, but when he saw Mike. Ben's "That Ray of Sunshine" really agrees.
And there are many movie reviews on IMDB that have been praised by many people, and many of them have spoken to Chen Tian's heart.
In the comprehensive evaluation of Yahoo media, "Little Sunshine Beauty" has also reached a high level of B+, and many authoritative media have scored A-.
Time Magazine's Richard. Hill wrote: "This film is a closer reflection of the reality of people's lives. β
The New York Times, underneath Time, commented: "The first thing we see is the pure eyes of the little girl, who seems to be able to see through the depths of our souls."
It's a movie about dreams and fantasies, and the casting and acting are the best. Justin gives us a taste of what success is, what failure is, and what is someone you should care about. β
Variety magazine's film critic Maxi . RossΓ© wrote: "This is a family comedy that knocks on the door of the audience's heart with the help of children. Although there are many films of the same genre, they lack the spirituality that this film has. β
Maxi. Rosie's words have been recognized by many professionals, and compared with many films of the same type, "Little Sunshine Beauty" does achieve this spirituality.
As with the ratings, almost all the media gave good reviews, not both good and bad.
Today's release of The Hollywood Reporter even used the headline "Win-Win" on the front page.
"Peter. Jackson's Lord of the Rings won word-of-mouth and box office, and this qiΔ was well deserved, because he was really good, and any director would know what the choice was when he met The Lord of the Rings.
Justin. Chen and MGM made the most incredible choice, and the release on the same day is destined to have a big impact on the box office.
However, when I watched both films, all I could say was that it was a win-win situation.
The box office of "The Lord of the Rings 3" is destined to explode, while "Little Sunshine Beauty" lost the box office but won the hearts of countless people.
As it is said on the Internet, one of the best is built and watched separately, and you will gain more. β
It's not just Chen Tian who pays attention to the film's reputation, but also Eric in Los Angeles. Lomis, as well as Roger and Alice, who are far away in New York, are paying attention to word-of-mouth.
Eric. Lomis was under a lot of pressure, but after seeing the explosion of word-of-mouth, he was finally comforted.
Especially after he received Harvey. After Weinstein's call, he was even more relieved.
Harvey. Weinstein told him to wait for the good news, and he would do everything he could to run Little Sunshine Beauty.
Success or failure, Harvey. Weinstein's operations will all play a role in the box office.
The only one that makes Eric. Lomis was uncomfortable, and the New York Post actually wrote the title "The Box Office Secret of Little Sunshine Beauty" at the bottom of the front page.
It sounds easy to entice people to come in and watch, but turning to that page is not a good thing.
As long as you are not a fool and read the quoted Johnson report published on the Internet, you know that "Little Sunshine Beauty" did this to increase the box office.
Although I don't know what the box office of "Little Sunshine Beauty" is, looking at the good reputation on the Internet, Eric . Lomis is ready to keep pushing hard.
Peter. Jackson was waiting for his assistant's box office debriefing, and he didn't go to the BOX website because he wanted to know more detailed numbers.
His assistant will send him all the details of each country as soon as possible, and although he is waiting, he feels that yesterday's premiere should not be bad.
"It's out, it's out!" Alice immediately looked at the refreshed page.
The number one is indeed "The Lord of the Rings 3", which has an excellent reputation and many fans. The Lord of the Rings, which was released in 3,703 theaters yesterday, got an incredible box office of 34.1 million. The average price of a single museum is close to $10,000 per game.
Although I know that the number one box office is "The Lord of the Rings 3". But such a high box office still surprised Alice.
Like Alice, Erik. Lomis is a professional, and if he's not mistaken, Wednesday would have been the first time in history that it had grossed so high.
Eric. Lomis looked at the film that came in second, and as expected, it was indeed "Little Sunshine Beauty".
Yesterday got a box office premiere of 8.06 million, which made Eric . Lomis breathed a sigh of relief.
According to the almost one-sided good word of mouth on the Internet, there are still four days left this week.
During these four days, despite the release of five films on Friday, Eric . Lomis felt that there would be no problem with reaching 20 million at the box office. If the situation is good, it may even reach 25 million to 30 million.
In the end, after three months of screening, 60 million box office will definitely be in the bag, so that MGM can still make a lot of money, and at the same time, it can rely on good reputation to get a lot of income on DVDs and Blu-rays, including TV on demand.
Although the score of 8.05 million did not break 10 million, it made Matthew who was in front of the computer. Ronte was depressed.
In his opinion, the box office is too high, completely beyond his imagination, considering that the films ranked third to fifth have been released for less than a week.
The third "Love is a Compromise" only received 1.02 million, almost falling below the one million mark.
With such results, he can imagine Sony Columbia's depression, but as soon as he saw that "Personal Brothers", which ranked sixth, only got 450,000 box office yesterday. Matthew. Ronte's gloating mood was suddenly gone.
He could only look forward to the release of "A Basket of Children" two days later, which would sweep away his depression, when the time came to ten o'clock. Peter. Jackson's mailbox received the mail.
Open the mail and look at the number one by one, Peter. Jackson smiled.
Because it received $34.1 million in North America on the day of its premiere, and $57.6 million at the global box office.
This result also broke the record of $28.5 million for "Star Wars Prequel 1" on May 19, 1999, at the single-day box office on Wednesday.
Not surprisingly, the North American box office of "The Lord of the Rings 3" will undoubtedly reach the previous scheduled target, and I opened the BOX office statistics website with a good mood.
When he saw that the second "Little Sunshine Beauty" actually received 8.05 million box office, he felt incredible, and he decided to go to the theater to see this film.
When Peter. The moment Jackson walked out of the company, he met a lot of reporters.
"Peter. Director Jackson, what do you think of the box office secret of "Little Sunshine Beauty" rumored on the Internet? Do you know about it? β
"Director Peter, I heard that "The Lord of the Rings 3" was a big hit at the box office, do you have anything to say? Will you continue to coach the Lord of the Rings series? β
"Director Peter, what do you think of "Little Sunshine Beauty", some people say that "The Lord of the Rings 3" is very good, but it is terrible compared to the ending of "Little Sunshine Beauty", do you have anything you want to respond to?"
"You know Justin. Director Chen? β
β¦β¦
"Sorry, I know Justin. Chen, but I haven't seen his film yet, and now I want to go to the theater, and if you want to go, I can invite you.
I guess I'm only qualified to comment on the film after watching it, isn't it?
As for the Lord of the Rings box office, I think you all know that we broke the Wednesday record, and I'm honored that I broke it. β
Peter. After Jackson finished speaking, he got into his car and drove towards downtown Los Angeles. Jackson's reply meant that he wanted to go to the theater and watch it before criticizing it.
Although they know that there are one-sided good reviews on the Internet, this does not prevent them from taking them out of context.
Peter. Jackson Ignores Little Sunshine - such headlines quickly appeared on the Internet. (To be continued......)
PS: The third one, there is one more
