The endless stream of moviegoers has finally made people realize that it is the summer season. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was not until this moment that North America finally had a sense of reality in the summer file, the cinema almost showed 24 hours of uninterrupted excitement and turbulence, and the attendance rate of each show easily exceeded 50%, "Pirates of the Caribbean 2", "Fury Road", "Little Guy", "Same/Living Threesome" and other four works launched a fierce fight, and even the "Superman Returns" who had weakened before and the "Queen Wears Prada" who rose by word of mouth have also returned to the battle circle. The boiling finally awakened people's enthusiasm for watching movies again.

Large theaters in big cities such as New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Houston have gathered surging crowds, and many theaters need to queue up at the ticket purchase stage.

Expected but unexpected, "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" and "Fury Road" launched a hand-to-hand combat, although the major news media are looking forward to this year's summer file war, but when the "Fury Road" really showed high-spirited combat effectiveness, the media was still very surprised, especially in the case of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" outstanding performance, "Fury Road" still does not show weakness, the excitement of this duel is skyrocketing, even the heat of midsummer is clumsy.

Although there is still some time to wait for box office statistics, the battle for IMDB has already entered the white heat.

"Pirates of the Caribbean 2" was released in just eight days, and the number of voters on IMDB has reached 210,000, just this set of data is enough to see the degree of attention that this movie has received since its release. After the vote of 210,000 people, the score of the film temporarily settled at 7.5 points, which is gratifying for commercial films, although it has regressed significantly compared to the previous work, but it can still be felt, the audience's affirmation of the commercial entertainment of this work, even if the follow-up is accompanied by an increase in the number of voters, the score is bound to decline, but the box office endurance of the film is still guaranteed to a certain extent.

This is definitely good news for "Pirates of the Caribbean 2", especially after the "Fury Road" box office on Friday, the huge pressure of the next week's decline can be slightly relieved.

At the same time, "Fury Road" showed an unstoppable upward momentum, showing the reaction of fans in the most intuitive and vivid way.

Since the movie just premiered on Friday, the audience base for the movie is not too large, and the number of people willing to vote on IMDb is even smaller, so it is assumed that the "Fury Road" number will not be clear until next week. But the truth is that after Saturday's screening, 150,000 people voted on the IMDB page!

150,000 people, if not shocking, but not far off. Considering that "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" won 210,000 votes in eight days, the number of voters for "Fury Road" exceeded 150,000 in two days, and the popularity is close to "Lord of the Rings 3: The Return of the King" - after the release of this movie, it attracted more than 230,000 votes on the opening weekend, and the expectation index was completely off the charts, and now it seems that "Fury Road" is fully capable of going to the next level, which can't help but remind people of the madness of the "Fury Road" Friday box office, maybe, The box office potential of this work is still above people's expectations.

Compared with the data of 150,000 votes, what is even more incredible is that the score of "Fury Road" actually reached 9.8 points!

IMDB scoring system is the most direct embodiment of audience feedback in the Internet era, perhaps this list is not authoritative and objective enough, but it is undeniable that IMDB's list of 250 best films reflects the popularity of the film - whether it is a commercial work or a work of art, only when there is influence among the audience, the artistic value can be reflected.

Since the launch of the rating list of the best 250 films, IMDB has only produced a total of three works with an average score of more than 9, "The Shawshank Redemption", "The Godfather", and "The Godfather 2". Of course, in the scoring process, it is not uncommon for newly released movies to break through nine points in a short period of time, but after time precipitation and the increase in rating users, the score often falls back below nine points, which has also caused only three works to score more than nine points so far. The nine points scored by "The Shawshank Redemption" and "The Godfather" are the historical records of IMDB, and since landing at the top of the list, "The Shawshank Redemption" has never been pulled off the list, firmly holding the championship throne, and no one can shake it.

But now, history is born!

At 9:8, "Fury Road" actually achieved such a terrifying high score of 9.8 points, surpassing all competitors by an absolute advantage, and ranking high at the top of IMDB's 250 best films, which is not only as simple as the fourth nine-point movie, but even more terrifying is that in the list of "0.1" to decide the winner, "Fury Road" actually surpassed "The Shawshank Redemption" by 0.6 points, this gap is almost irreparable, in other words, even if the number of follow-up votes increases, it is estimated that "Fury Road". The top position is also hard to shake.

What's more, this score is not swiped by 30,000 or 50,000 fanatical fans, but the result of 150,000 viewers' centralized voting. The large voting base also means ...... The objectivity of this score. Although it is inevitable that with the decline in the popularity of the movie and the gradual return of people's fanaticism to their senses, the miracle created by "Fury Road" still set off stormy waves, and the huge gap seems to have hinted at the change of dynasty of IMDB.

Time has proven this conjecture.

After the number of votes for "Fury Road" exceeded 1 million, the score remained stable at 9.4, and the lead was still unshakable, truly replacing "The Shawshank Redemption" as the best movie in IMDB's film history, an achievement that no one has been able to attack until ten years later. The review of the Los Angeles Times became the best footnote to the film: it was a work that perfectly combined business and art.

No one thought that Lance would go down in history in such a way and enter the director's hall of masters.

But if you think about it, this is not an accident, because Lance has already proved his strength with one work after another and won his own recognition. In IMDB's 250 best film rating system, Lance alone occupies four seats, namely "Fury Road", "City of God", "Sin City" and "Hard Fruit Candy", you know, Lance has only directed six films so far, only "The Day After Tomorrow" and "Murder by Knife" did not make it to the list. What's even more incredible is that "Fury Road", "City of God", and "Fruit Hard Candy" are ranked in the top 100, of which "Fury Road" is the first in film history, and "City of God" is the highest ranking of foreign language films.

It is no exaggeration to say that Lance is a bullet and every work has received countless praises, from the thought-provoking crime trilogy to the in-depth discussion of "Hard Fruit Candy" to the futuristic world of "Fury Road", every step is so solid that he has gone further and further on the path of artistic creation. What is even more rare is that Lance can always find the right balance between business and art, except for the "acquired" artistic value is not satisfactory, Lance's works can always win the box office while also achieving their own artistic proposition.

The ascent to the top of the "Fury Road" cannot be said to be an accident, it can only be said to be a thick accumulation. As Javier Ulliel thought, with Lance's current achievements and achievements, the "Fury Road" should not suffer the treatment it had before, and the film master, who is not yet 34 years old, deserves a place in the history of Hollywood films. Now, "Fury Road" has finally justified Lance's name, and in an unreasonable but domineering way, it has forcefully declared its historical status.

After IMDB's score came out, the news media directly fried the pot, "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" looks like papier-mâché in front of "Fury Road", the two are not above the same order of magnitude at all, and "Pirates of the Caribbean 2", the heavyweight that people originally thought was lightweight, and "Fury Road", which was ignored by people, brought a heavyweight shock. From Friday's all-time single-day box office record to the frenzied popularity of the IMDB rating system, all signs are pointing to the fact that this week's North American weekend box office champion seems to be changing hands.
