Although the reviews of Home Alone 2 were polarized, it did not stop the sequel from reaping the box office in a strong end.

In the first weekend of three days, "Home Alone 2" got a box office of 31 million US dollars in more than 2,200 theaters in North America, and after the first week of release, the total box office of the film reached more than 46 million, far exceeding the first one's first week results of more than 27 million.

And the second place this week is Warner's "Lethal Weapon 2", although it has more than 1,900 screens, it only got more than 25 million box office, which is more than half of "Home Alone 2". Paramount's black comedy "Harlem Nightclub" came in third, earning $22 million at the box office.

Although "Home Alone 2" got a box office of $46 million, it is actually not too surprising to say, the most surprising movie in the first week of the Thanksgiving schedule is the "Steel Magnolia" that has been overlooked.

After all, this is the first film Juilliard to take over after the success of "Pretty Woman", so it still receives considerable attention. But compared with the vigorous publicity of New Year's movies such as "Home Alone 2", "Lethal Weapon 2" and "Back to the Future 2", the feature film starring Julia about the ordinary lives of several women in a southern town is much weaker.

Therefore, although "Steel Magnolia" only received $17 million at the first-week box office, it ranked fourth on the box office charts. But this movie is undoubtedly the biggest dark horse in the New Year's schedule. Because compared to 1,000 open screens. "Steel Magnolia" averaged a staggering $17,000 per screen in its first week. The high attendance is scary. In addition to "Home Alone 2", which averages $20,000 and is a bit higher than "Steel Magnolia", "Lethal Weapon 2" is only $13,000, and "Harlem Nightclub" is just over $10,000, just reaching the standard of a blockbuster.

Next, under the impact of a large wave of newly released films, "Island Cry" fell by 41% at the box office this week, earning $14.75 million at the box office, barely squeezing into the top five.

And Universal's "Back to the Future 2" only got a box office of more than $13 million. It's not that the film suffered a box office waterloo, but because Universal didn't know what the reason was, so it didn't put the film on November 17 or November 24 the following week, but on the embarrassing November 22, which happened to be the day before Thanksgiving.

Speaking of Thanksgiving, Eric's brain can't help but hurt, and while receiving a gratifying box office count every day, Eric is also jumping in his villa in Beverly Hills. As an important holiday in the United States after Christmas, Thanksgiving is a time for family reunion.

Drew certainly couldn't have gone back to Culver to spend some Thanksgiving with her mother. And Aniston. After her parents divorced, they both reorganized the family, half-brother, half-brother and so on. That's called a mess, and the little girl is already an adult, no matter which side she goes to spend Thanksgiving, she feels very uncomfortable. Intentionally or unintentionally, he complained to Eric, and Eric invited the little girl to his house for Thanksgiving, originally thought that Aniston would not agree, but he didn't expect to agree this time.

As a result, Eric, who was sitting in front of the computer in the study but didn't have any intention of working, felt very strong in his heart.

If one of the two little Nizi is like water and the other is like fire, then it's okay, and you can neutralize it or something, but the two baby bumps are both fire attributes. The only thing that made Eric happy was that the two girls stopped fighting.

After staring at the document for half an hour without typing out a word, Eric closed the computer in boredom and walked out of the study, where he heard a voice from downstairs in the distance.

"Hey, big fat girl, how many times have I told you, this pillow is my personal use, you are not allowed to touch it!"

"You little Bichi, if you ask me to try a fat girl again, I'll touch it. ”

“……”

After a brief pause, Aniston's frightened and disgusted voice immediately came: "Wow, that's disgusting, you actually touched your saliva on the pillow." ”

"You still rely on the ability!"

", stay away from me, heck, don't change the channel, give me back the remote, I'm learning to make pumpkin pie." ”

"Who would dare to eat it, the salmon omelet you made yesterday was unpalatable. ”

"It's hard to eat so much, don't think I didn't see it. ”

"I had a stomach problem in the middle of the night. ”

"You talk nonsense, I'm fine with Eric!"

Eric hesitated a few times, sighed, reflexively returned to the study, picked up the phone and dialed the number at random, calling one by one.

Virginia went home to spend the holidays with her parents, and Nicole was in Chicago to do a promotional tour for "Sleepless in Seattle." Even Julia is not in Los Angeles, and in the end, out of boredom, Eric dials the number of Jeffrey's house.

"Hey, this is Hansen's house. When the phone was answered, Eric was stunned, because it was not Jeffrey's voice, but a young man. Immediately, Eric thought that the other party might be Jeffrey's son, Chris Hansen.

"I'm Eric Williams, may I ask you?" asked though he was sure in his heart.

There was a pause on the other end of the line, and then he said, "I'm Chris Hansen, Mr. Williams, are you looking for my dad?" ”

Eric didn't know each other, and he didn't say anything, and after a while, Jeffrey's voice rang from the other end of the phone: "Eric, tomorrow is Thanksgiving, is there anything to call at this time? If there's something going on in the company, you can go to Robert. ”

Eric was stunned, and then smiled: "It's nothing, it's just that I'm a little bored at home, so I casually dialed your number and wanted to chat with you." ”

Jeffrey asked curiously, "Isn't that little girl from Drew supposed to be at your house now?"

"Anyway, Jenny is coming to my house too. So, you get the idea. ”

Jeffrey, of course, knew what Eric was talking about, and he had seen two little girls scratching each other in a hospital bed with his own eyes with Eric. After a pause, Jeffrey burst out laughing, "Hahaha, Eric, why did you bring them together again?" (to be continued......)
