"Oh my God! Jack Sparrow is so handsome, God, my heart is going to stop. A little girl just walked out of the screening room, holding her heart, looking like she was about to suffocate.

"Cheryl, please, it's Captain Jack Sparrow, Captain!" The female companion next to her couldn't help but correct her friend's "slip of the tongue". They were amused by Jack and Gregory's insistence on calling each other in the movie.

"I'm sorry, Kelly, my fault. Thankfully, I don't call dragons by their first names. Cheryl exaggeratedly stroked the towering chest and sighed.

Kelly laughed and said, "Haha, then you'll be a pile of ashes, and even the studio of the button bear will be burned to ashes." ”

When the two young men saw that it was a beautiful girl chatting, they looked at each other and walked over to talk, "Did you also watch this movie, and so did we, can we talk together?" ”

Cheryl and Kelly glanced at each other and smiled faintly, "Uh-huh, what are you talking about, movies?" ”

"Of course, that's our hobby." The tall boy was more talkative, sat directly across from him, and said, "My name is Johnny, and this is Jack." ”

"Your name is Jack too?" The girls looked at the quiet boy in amazement.

The quiet boy was a little shy, "Jack Vinson, it's not Sparrow. ”

Johnny was bent on being in the limelight, so he opened his mouth and said, "Actually, I think other characters in the movie are also very good, such as the pirate boss Barbossa." He started from the side, but it immediately caught the attention of the girls.

Seeing the girl's listening expression, Johnny became even more pretentious and said, "I think what moved me the most in "Pirates of the Caribbean" was not Captain Jack Sparrow's unruly unruliness, nor the love story of Elizabeth and Wiltner, but the ghost captain Barbossa. This is a persistent and unlucky cursed person, a character with an infinite desire for rebirth. In the vast lonely sea. What he searched for with all his might and at all cost was not gold and silver treasures and beautiful women and wine and meat, but the gold coin that robbed him of all his feelings. Before that. Everything is nothing but dung, and life is nothing but a nightmare that you can't wake up from. ”

"When the coin finally fell. What awaited him was not the apple that he held in his hand at all times, but a bullet that pierced his body in time and with precision. At that moment, he finally obtained the real flesh and blood, and he said three words without intoxication: l~cold. ”

"I think he's intoxicated, yes, I'm using the word 'intoxicated.'" Because at that moment he must have understood, the result was not important, the important thing was that he got the feeling, even if it was only the last moment. Even though it's so cold. ”

Cheryl and the two were obviously frightened and asked, "Sounds reasonable, you are a fan of Barbossa, so do you know what this actor's name is?" ”

"......" Johnny was speechless for a moment, such a simple question, he was actually asked, "Shet, it should be a somewhat famous actor." Who cares, it's already dead anyway. ”

The girls Nono, somewhat nonchalantly. Johnny was in a hurry. Scraped up his little head and began to think about those classic movie reviews.

At this time, Jack Vinson, who had been quiet, suddenly spoke, "Barbossa is played by Jeffrey Rush, who was also nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor in 1997. And Barbossa didn't die either. In the final easter egg, please the monkey gave him, he must have been resurrected......"

β€œwhatοΌŸβ€

"What, there are still easter eggs?"

Before he could finish his sentence, a group of people surrounded him and asked him gossip. Cheryl and Kelly's eyes also completely shifted from Johnny to Jack Vinson. Johnny was a little jealous and said, "We bought tickets together to watch, why did you see the easter egg, but I didn't." ”

Jack patiently explained, "Because you're at the time of the subtitles. I had already gone to the toilet and I had finished reading all the subtitles. There was no one in the theater anymore, so I saw this easter egg. Barbossa was not only resurrected in the end. And it's resurrected alone in the empty dragon mountains and silver seas, I think in the next movie, Barbossa will continue to come out to make waves, and Captain Jack is in big trouble. What's more, the city in the sky hasn't shown any traces yet. ”

After the movie comes up with subtitles, everyone will think that this is the end.

But occasionally, some directors will hide a piece of film after the subtitles, which is called an "easter egg". Easter eggs are definitely not to be missed for fans who are keen on the film. When I learned that there was an easter egg at the end of "Pirates of the Caribbean", some people immediately planned to watch it again.

Cheryl and Kelly also beat their chests and paused, full of regret.

"Jack, I think you have a lot of depth watching the movie, can I invite you to watch it again?"

The powerful man on the side widened his eyes and leaned in front of Jack, "What, it's just him?" ”

Jack pushed his glasses and calmly pushed the force aside, "Of course, I'd love to." If you want a drink or popcorn, I'm in for a treat. Also, I've heard that the movie souvenir shop has launched Pirates of the Caribbean merchandise, including pirate hats and compasses to go wherever you want. If you're lucky, you might be able to get a gold Aztec coin at auction, but it's only a limited auction, and it is estimated that there will be a lot of people rushing to buy it. ”

The two girls immediately looked adoring, "Jack, you know so much." ”

Jack smiled calmly, "It's nothing, it's far worse than Captain Jack." Let's go buy tickets. His hands were already on the waists of the two women, and Johnny's eyes almost bulged out at the sight.

……

Those who watched the movie again found that the one who was most impressed by them was still Captain Jack Sparrow.

Captain Jack is like a rambling and babbling madman, but few people understand what he's talking aboutβ€”not because he's well-cultivated, of course, but because he's a man with a story. A person's cultivation can be obtained by reading books, but if you want to get a three-dimensional personality charm, you have to rely on wandering around to accumulate life experience, maybe Captain Jack Sparrow is this kind of person, although this guy has an unsound personality, but his charm does not diminish. You can dislike him, you can hate him, or you can like him. He's just a slippery loach that can't be completely emotionally attached to him.

Chen Tiandu completely released his personal charm.

The Captain Jack Sparrow, who whispered "sail to the horizon", made his image of free and chic deeply imprinted in the minds of the audience. And Chen Tiandu also proved with this role: commercial movies can also have classics!

Captain Jack Sparrow is also destined to become an almost unsurpassed classic in the history of Hollywood films.

……

If it's Captain Jack Sparrow's wickedness. Succeeded in getting the media to change their attitude from skepticism to appreciation.

So one day after the large-scale official release, the strength of "Pirates of the Caribbean" at the box office directly demonized the charm of Captain Jack Sparrow, and made the media fall through the glasses and watch with amazement at how this "questionable" commercial film made waves on the box office charts of the summer year.

In the summer file, it is definitely not an exaggeration to describe it as a war.

It was already July. The end of the summer vacation is not far away, and I didn't expect such a heavyweight movie to hit hard.

Perhaps the real king of the summer box office is just getting started, and it will be a battle within the matrix, the competition of the summer king of "Speed 2" vs "Pirates of the Caribbean".

The previous doubts almost made people think that no one in the whole of Hollywood is optimistic about the "Caribbean". but the box office competitiveness in the summer file. Before the release of the movie, it was because of the constant doubts about the movie, and after the release of the movie, because of a clear understanding of the competition in the summer file. In the past two months, with the exception of "Fast and Furious 2" by Matrix Films and "Finding Nemo" by Pixar, no film has been able to top the North American box office charts.

"Pirates of the Caribbean" was released at a time when last week's North American box office winner was "Terminator 3". "Breaking Bad 2", "Finding Nemo", "Captain America", "Legally Blonde 2", and "Hulk" are still at the top.

The only big-budget commercial film released in the same week as "Pirates of the Caribbean" is "Skirmish". But Sean Connery is already old, and not many people like this bad old man who beats his wife with domestic violence. Compared to the overwhelming "Pirates of the Caribbean". They are like abandoned children. On the contrary, "Terminator 3", "Legally Blonde" in the second week of release, and "Finding Nemo" in the seventh week of Disney's release are more threatening.

In the midst of the saliva, after Thursday's midnight win of $13.28 million. On Friday, he cut $33.58 million in one day without any suspense.

On the IMDB-TOP250 list, it still ranks first with a score of 8.6 (81,634 rated users). 92 points out of 100. Rotten Tomatoes 90%, 95% audience likability (116,913 rating users), this is the almost perfect evaluation of "Pirates of the Caribbean"!

However, North America thought that Friday was already the limit, and Saturday really ushered in a box office explosion! It turned out that Friday was not the limit, and many viewers were affected by the news that was not optimistic before, and most of them did not go to the movies. It wasn't until the movie's reputation really spread that he walked into the cinema without any worries.

Cinemas expanded to 4,028. It became the first time that Chen Tiandu appeared in 4,000 theaters, just one day on Saturday. collected $51.26 million. On average, each theater grossed more than $10,000.

That's how Pirates of the Caribbean performed at the box office in its amazing opening week.

pressed all the previously released movies on the bench and beat them up at once.

When this data spread, the whole world was shocked. It's crazy!!

This is the performance that Chen Tiandu should have, what kind of bullshit Waterloo? Presumably, the media seems to have forgotten the strong box office performances of "The Sixth Sense", "The Matrix 1/2/3", and "Speed 1, 2".

"Chen Tiandu, a money-robbing madman......"

It's only been two days, and with the midnight session, it's already a super strong performance of $98.12 million.

And there were three days for the whole weekend! (To be continued) i580
