Back then, "500 Days with Shamo" made Joseph and Scarlett, a screen couple, gain a large number of fans, and now Joseph and Scarlett have teamed up again in "Teddy Bear". In the first few waves of promotional videos, the fans of the two and Shao Shuaijun's fans continued to brush up on the scores, creating a 100% praise record.

As an R-rated comedy, "Teddy Bear" did not hold any premieres, and now Shao Shuaijun no longer needs the premiere to do publicity. After years of word-of-mouth accumulation, the reputation of director Shao Shuaijun is getting louder and louder, basically crowned with a few words of Shao Shuaijun's works, and the audience knows that this is a good movie.

On April 30th, the media has regarded today as 2010, the day to kick off the summer file war.

Compared with the 100% praise contributed by fans, the media is much more cautious and cautious about the box office of "Teddy Bear". If it was a movie directed by Shao Shuaijun with great effort, the media would definitely advocate a box office hit, but this time Shao Shuaijun learned to play with fire and opened it double!

""Teddy Bear" is about to be released, Shao Shuaijun is arrogant and double-opened, I am afraid of reproducing the tragedy of "Night Watchman"!" -- The Chicago Sun-Times opened fire.

However, whether these media are ridiculing or supporting, every time they report now, they are promoting "Teddy Bear" for free. Joseph and Scarlett took the leading actors to promote everywhere, but Shao Shuaijun disappeared from everyone's eyes, and now in addition to staying in Hollywood's special effects company, he is flying back to the capital to accompany Li Xiuxiu and the baby in her belly.

From April 30th to May 2nd, three days of weekends passed. The North American weekend box office is out. "How to Train Your Dragon," which was released for two weeks, came in third with $10.83 million, while "New Ghost Street," a reimagining of the classic horror movie, earned $32.21 million in its first weekend, achieving excellent results.

However, the most dazzling is "Teddy Bear", a small-budget R-rated comedy, relying on Shao Shuaijun's quality assurance, with an unrivaled attitude, won $65.5 million, setting a new record for R-rated films in April! The movie won a high box office at the same time. The word-of-mouth of media people has also come out.

"A subversive performance of childhood toys. Not suitable for children. —The New York Times.

"The most unexpected surprise of this film is its Spielberg-esque fairytale feel, and it also earns some tears." - The Hollywood News.

"That teddy bear is the funniest character of all the movies of the year, and this film also has the best comedy script of the year." - The Denver Post.

"The film's satirical objects include race, religion, feelings, reality and other topics, but at the same time, it has enough warmth as a spice." -- Los Angeles Times.

"Playing the edge ball of a restricted movie with a toy that everyone knows. There is a wonderful chemistry. - "Beyond Hollywood".

"The whole movie is ruining childhood. This teddy bear is very immature. It is a funny comedy that starts from an interesting assumption and ends up vulgar to the end. ”

"A subversive satire that I had expected for a long time, but it was warmer than I imagined, and it was sad. And not as happy as I imagined. ”

It's neither good nor bad, with only 60% freshness on Rotten Tomatoes and a 7.3 rating on IMDB. It can be said that there is no achievement in word-of-mouth, but R-rated comedies have never been filmed for word-of-mouth, and they have never looked at word-of-mouth, what they watch is the box office!

$65.5 million in the first week, sweeping away the gloom of the box office failure of Summit Entertainment's "Dance Out of My Life 4". From May 7th to 9th, including a Mother's Day, "Teddy Bear" bucked the trend and went against the norm, unexpectedly reaching the top and surpassing the first week with an incredible $102.5 million, setting a box office record for the second week of R-rated films.

Summit Entertainment is mouth is smiling crookedly.

""Teddy Bear" is crazy counterattack, Shao Shuaijun's magic aura is undiminished, and the highest-grossing R-rated comedy in history was born ahead of schedule!" -- Hollywood Entertainment Report.

"What caused Teddy Bear to buck the trend - USA Today explains it in detail. The latest film "Teddy Bear" by the great director Shao Shuaijun has been released in North America for two weeks, and has achieved a super box office of $214 million, and has also achieved a good result of $103 million overseas. The second week of the film in North America, uncharacteristically surpassed the first week's results, or because of the weak blockbusters in the film market this week, the second-place "New Ghost Street" only got $9.17 million, and the box office of the second to tenth places combined was less than one-third of that of "Teddy Bear". ”

With $317 million worldwide in two weeks, "Teddy Bear" has one foot in the highest-grossing R-rated comedy in history.

On May 14th, Summit Entertainment made another big production, "Iron Man 2" from the Marvel Cinematic Universe project, landed in North America. The $200 million epic blockbuster "Robin Hood" produced by Universal Pictures will also be released, and at the beginning of the summer season, an eye-catching scuffle broke out, among which "Teddy Bear" and its own "Iron Man 2" will kill each other.

However, at the end of the weekend, the expected battle did not start, and "Iron Man 2" reached the top with $128 million. "Robin Hood" was a bad start, earning only $32 million, and the film is destined to lose money, and Universal has the momentum to seriously break away from the six ranks.

"Teddy Bear" also took a big plunge at the box office, coming in third place with $24 million, but the overseas box office was gratifying, taking $94 million this week and $435 million worldwide. Among them, the total box office in North America has accumulated to 238 million US dollars, surpassing "Beverly Hills Police Detective" in North America of 234 million US dollars, and squeezing into the top three in the history of R-rated comedies in North American history.

It is second only to "The Hangover" at $277 million and "The Hangover 2" with $254 million. And the release period of "Teddy Bear" is not over yet.

May 21-23 was another weekend to the end, with Shrek 4 stealing the title with $71.25 million, Iron Man 2 in second place with $58 million, Robin Hood in third with a measly $18.7 million, and Teddy Bear in fourth with $9.8 million.

So far. Four weeks later, "Teddy Bear" grossed $248 million in North America and $505 million worldwide. Two weeks later, "Iron Man 2" was $217 million in North America and $419 million worldwide, which was also a big hit. The glorious road of Summit Entertainment is unstoppable!

"Shao Shuaijun will be the future leader of Hollywood, and any kind of subject matter in his hands can be turned into Chiguoguo's dollar bills!" - Time Magazine.

The box office was a big hit, his wife was pregnant, and Shao Shuaijun had no reason to be unhappy. Now he's smiling all the time. And he likes to show off in front of his friends. After a few days, friends who have a good relationship know that Shao Shuaijun is about to be promoted to a father.

Later, he simply sent a message on the scarf: "I'm going to be a father, haha." Bless me, everyone! ”

It's almost sensational. The scarf was wildly retweeted on Time.com and Twitter. The world knows about it. Shao Shuaijun rarely wears a scarf, except for releasing some movie stills, there is no news released. So there aren't many fans. But after this news, the number of fans around the world immediately increased by almost a million, breaking through the 3 million mark.

The fans' messages are all blessings to Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu, and they are looking forward to the birth of Xiao Shao. There are also many female fans who have left messages saying that there is one less good man in the world and is going to become a monk.

"China's famous director Shao Shuaijun recently claimed on the scarf that he is about to become a father, it is reported that he and his wife Li Xiuxiu have been in love for five years, and they have been married before." The media also hyped up and hyped the news.

Shao Shuaijun forgot about his scarf after sending the message, and he didn't think about sending another message, he could announce to the world that he had become a father, hoping that everyone would share his joy, but he didn't want the whole world to pay attention to his family. In fact, there is nothing to pay attention to, Li Xiuxiu is almost three months pregnant, but her belly is still so big, and there is no sign of pregnancy at all.

Now Li Xiuxiu has begun to act in strict accordance with the doctor's instructions for the sake of the child, eating when she should eat and sleeping when she should sleep. After Shao Shuaijun came back, he could only follow this routine and rest law, for people like him who stayed up late and had become commonplace, his wife's pregnancy was really lonely.

On the weekend of May 28-30, "Shrek 4" achieved a winning streak with $43.3 million, "Iron Man 2" ranked second with $26.4 million, and "Teddy Bear" climbed to third place with $7.35 million. So far, "Teddy Bear" has reached $258 million in North America, surpassing the performance of "The Hangover 2" in North America, and the global level has also reached $556 million, not far from the global $581 million of "The Hangover 2".

On June 4th, Summit Entertainment released another highly anticipated movie, written by Shao Shuaijun. The Hunger Games, directed by Ross, was released. Three days later, the whole of North America was boiling, and "The Hunger Games" opened for three days, grossing $152.6 million at the North American box office, breaking the June box office record set by "Transformers 2: Fallen Avengers".

It also set a series of North American records: No. 1 at the box office in June's opening weekend.

No. 1 at the domestic box office of non-sequel films at midnight, No. 1 at the domestic box office of non-sequel films on Friday, No. 1 at the domestic box office of single-day non-sequel films in the United States, No. 1 in the release scale of works produced by the largest independent film companies, No. 1 in the premiere release scale of works produced by the largest independent film companies, No. 1 in the TV reality show genre films, No. 3 in the three-day total box office over the weekend, No. 3 at the box office of the premiere weekend of PG-13 films, and No. 2 at the box office with the fastest breakthrough of $100 million, The fastest to break through the $150 million box office No. 3.

Under the impact of "The Hunger Games", all movies in early June were wiped out, and "Shrek 4" ranked second, but it did not even have a box office of $30 million, less than a fraction of "The Hunger Games".

"The Hunger Games" has set a number of records, this is the second gold mountain that Shao Shuaijun discovered in the United States, as a discerning director, Shao Shuaijun gave up directing "Twilight" and "The Hunger Games" one after another, just because he felt that it was too easy for the movie to scavenge the box office! I have to say it's a crazy idea! Perhaps only a paranoid person could make such a move, Shao Shuaijun is and James Shuaijun is a member of the same team. Cameron-like paranoia! -- Entertainment Weekly. (To be continued......)
