Chapter 1192: Stimulation 2016

Entering the first week of 2016, the second week of the release of "Titanic", that is, the New Year's Day schedule, the big ship rose against the trend again, because a large number of theaters raised the scheduling rate of "Titanic" based on market demand, and the box office in the North American market reached 380 million US dollars, far exceeding the 210 million US dollars of "Star Wars", the weekly box office record holder in North American box office history, creating an incredible miracle.

Even Emperor Entertainment, in which Sony has a stake, couldn't resist the pressure and comprehensively raised the schedule of "Titanic", after all, they are listed companies, and the interests of all shareholders come first.

Due to the temporary adjustment of the film schedule, the theater manager of Emperor Entertainment had to stand up and say to the public that when we come to our Emperor Entertainment Theater, we still have a large number of vacant seats to choose from......

Fandango, an online ticketing platform in the United States, said that "Titanic" is the highest-grossing movie in the 15-year history of the site, far exceeding the record-setting "Star Wars" and "The End of the World", especially the pre-sale results of IMAX theaters, which are beyond imagination, and the nearest seats will be queued up until two weeks later.

Another ticketing website MovieTickets.com revealed that the pre-sale score of "Titanic" on the site was five times that of "The Shawshank Redemption", and only 20% more votes than the all-time record holder "Star Wars: Original Sin", but the face value was much higher than that of "Star Wars" because IMAX and 3D tickets are expensive.

The media exploded, 380 million, from a poor performance of 30 million over the weekend, to a barely passing 86 million in the first week, to an incredible inverse growth to an unimaginable 380 million.......

All didn't understand what was going on......

Even Konstantin, who doesn't care about movies, called Cheng Xiaoyu to ask if he had brushed the box office, how much water there was in this data, and the answer was that there was no water at all.......

"Miracles Belong to the Titanic": "When Jack stood on the bow of the ship and shouted "I am the king of the world", perhaps no one thought that this was actually Cheng Xiaoyu's ambition!"

"The epic performance of "Titanic" is not only a weekly box office record that surpasses "Star Wars", if you think "Titanic" It's just that it has made an incredible counterattack in North America, then you are wrong, it has achieved even more unimaginable glory overseas, and the second week overseas collected 550 million box office, especially in China, it has formed a strange, people wander outside the movie theater, just to buy an IMAX scalper, during the New Year's Day, an IMAX ticket was sold by scalpers to thousands of Huaxia coins, equivalent to 140 US dollars.......

In order to meet the needs of the audience, the IMAX screening hall of the Xichu Cinema Line had to be changed to open overnight, and even so, it is still difficult for you to grab an IMAX movie.

This time, Cheng Xiaoyu may still be right, 3D and IMAX are not future trends, but current trends. - The Hollywood Reporter

"The Birth of the King of the World": "Now when everyone talks about "Titanic", it seems that any midnight show, weekly record, and final box office record will all be easily trampled underfoot, and completely ignore the unfavorable factors at this point in December.

But last year, when everyone was discussing the North American annual championship, not many people would say that "Titanic" would break these records, although its investment had already broken records! At that time, most of the focus of everyone's discussion was on the "Oscar".

In terms of whether "The Shawshank Redemption" or "Black Swan" will eventually sweep the "Oscars", as for "Titanic" is just an interesting point to watch. But with the sudden rise of "Titanic", people began to have higher expectations for it, because not many people saw "Titanic" as the opponent of the great "Star War" and "Armageddon" in advance.

According to many people's predictions in advance, it is an extravagant hope for "Titanic" to enter two billion US dollars, and the box office of the first weekend and the box office of the first week seem to prove this point of view! Now that the report card of "Titanic" rising to 380 million US dollars against the trend is an undeniable fact, then breaking the myth of two billion US dollars will also be a sure thing.

What we have to see now is how far "Titanic" can go, even if it can't exceed 2 billion, the idea of waiting for "Xichu" and Cheng Xiaoyu to go bankrupt is completely bankrupt. β€”The New York Times

"Is the era of 3D and IMAX really here?": "Titanic" has driven the popularity of 3D and IMAX, countless fans are waving money just for a seat, for the sake of fairness, the theater manager of AMC Cinema said that he will not sell all tickets online, but reserve half of the tickets for the audience at the scene, so the result is that someone starts queuing outside AMC's theater a day in advance, usually they are a couple.

Just last week, some people ridiculed that "Titanic" would become the most money-losing rotten thing ever, and betting on 3D and IMAX was an act of digging their own grave, but today, everyone can only watch Cheng Xiaoyu and his Xichu use IMAX and 3D to make money wildly, and there is nothing they can do..... Even the IMAX theaters in Universal and Disney amusement parks are used to play "Titanic", so you should know what time has come. ”

In the third week of the release of "Titanic", the box office dropped slightly, but it still remained at a high level of 230 million.

All the theaters that are waiting and watching do not hesitate to start renovating IMAX theaters, "Emperor Entertainment" is the most active one, announcing on the Internet that several IMAX and 3D theaters will be added in North America within two weeks, and they have long been ready for the advent of a new era, as long as they replace the projectors.

However, not long after the announcement, it was found that things were not as simple as imagined, all theaters could not sit still, IMAX projectors were already in short supply, and global orders flew to "IMAX Company" like snowflakes, and countless theaters were waiting to get a piece of the pie in this global feast.

In the fourth week of its release, the film continued to hold firm with 180 million box office receipts, and on January 20, the Los Angeles Times, which has always been a staunch "Titanic" black, cautiously said that "Titanic" is likely to become the highest-grossing film in film history, surpassing the record that "Doomsday" has maintained for 17 years is almost a definite fact!

Cheng Xiaoyu and his "Titanic" are about to make history!

But in fact, the world's human beings have finally become completely numb to the non-stop box office growth of "Titanic" - there is nothing on this planet that has been made into a movie that can be compared.

"Titanic" responded to the crying and shouting demand of fans all over the world to watch, tirelessly driving in theaters around the world, and countless films had to revise their release plans in order to avoid such a terrible movie.

What's even more appalling is its ultimate box office, no one can predict how far it can end up, a box office analyst said in an interview: "We can't analyze it, we can only let God analyze it!"

As a medium with a very low rewatch rate of movies, the return rate of "Titanic", which lasted for more than three hours, is higher than that of beautiful women, and it is not uncommon for the average audience to rewatch this movie two or three times, and when a girl who was queuing up to buy the newly released film video in Times Square was interviewed by reporters, she claimed that she had watched it 14 times in the theater, and she brought enough tissues each time, but when watching IMAX, she would try to hold back her tears.....

The film's soundtrack has sold more than one million copies on the Internet, and the theme song "My Heart Will Go On" has been confirmed to land on the world's largest gala with singer Xia Shamo - "Spring Festival Gala".

At the beginning of 2016, the whole earth was filled with the tragic atmosphere of "Titanic", and all the theaters were full of tears, which was enough to add an ocean.

Many film critics who were waiting to see the excitement at first also began to return to obedience at this time, bustling to cheer for Cheng Xiaoyu and "Titanic".

The miracle created by the box office alone still seems to be not enough to establish the status of "Titanic" in film history forever, because more laurels have not yet been crowned, and more symbols have not yet been established.

Several other comparable movies in 2016 are "The Shawshank Redemption", "Black Swan", "Secret of the Heart" and "Becoming Fame", in terms of overall strength and almost all of them are strong, especially "The Shawshank Redemption", which is unanimously favored by film critics, who feel that this is an absolutely great movie......

At this time, everything is just waiting for Oscar, who has always oscillated between high and kitsch, to make the final decision.

At the beginning of February, the academy judges will give a clear answer to this year's style - who will be the biggest winner of the Oscars in "Titanic" and "The Shawshank Redemption" is particularly eye-catching!

So the Oscars ceremony on March 23 seemed to have become a [Titanic] enthronement ceremony that everyone had reached a consensus on, and those minority audiences who were still waiting for the film to turn around and talk about things that were not nominated for Best Screenplay ushered in only the indisputable fact that [Titanic] tied the [Ben Hur] record and won 11 awards. After all, no matter how high or low the academic school is, it is difficult to go against the ardent expectations of the 55 million viewers in front of the television set - the number of viewers of the Oscars has not exceeded this number in ten years.

[Titanic] became the top of the box office, and James Cameron became the "king of the world". A miracle was born.
