Looking back at 1994 not long ago, people still can't forget, the success of "vulgar" and "speed of life and death" made Hugo really reach the top, from the Oscar in March recognized Hugo's outstanding performance in "Schindler's List", to the Cannes Film Festival in May to commend Hugo's performance in "vulgar", Hugo ended a glorious year with the power of "Mr. 400 million", from the box office to word of mouth to awards, indiscriminately swept away.

Of course, no one will forget the miracle of the glory to death led by Jì Hugo, the momentum of the first album "Almost Famous" is still unabated, and the second album "Bathing in the Morning Light" has reached a new level, truly writing the new metal rock into history, and the three gramophone trophies awarded to the glory to death by the Grammys held in February 1995 have even become the embellishment of the band's live performances on stage, allowing people to truly see the rock spirit that belongs only to the glorious 70s.

1994, this is an indelible year in the long history, and it is also a year in which Hugo successfully ranks among the top, compared to such a glorious year, it is not easy to surpass, in fact, Hugo's work in 1995 is indeed not as bright as last year, the band did not release a new album, and there is no tour; Although there are three films, the results are simply not comparable to last year, both at the box office and in historical status.

But anyone who really lived through 1995 will know that this was the year when Hugo really became a superstar.

In the long year of 1995, Hugo released a total of three works, "Before Sunrise", "Seven Deadly Sins" and "Death Row Walk", which are difficult to reach the height of the two works in 1994 from all angles, but they all have irreplaceable status.

Looking at the 1995 year-end North American box office list, "Toy Story" won the year-end championship with a box office of $198 million, and this first computer 3D animation in film history also made history, not only allowing audiences to recognize 3D animation in the era of 2D animation, but also allowing people to see Pixar Animation Studio for the first time, which kicked off the studio's 20-year reign.

"Seven Deadly Sins" unfortunately ranked second with $195 million, but even so, this achievement still shocked everyone, not only because of the ultra-low investment in this work, but also because the theme of this work has created a peak that cannot be surpassed in the history of thriller and suspense films.

Although such a feat is not comparable to the historical significance of "vulgar" as an independent film, it also has an unparalleled influence on the entire industry - it is enough to make a genre film get the attention of major film companies, and thus can lead to more masterpieces in a genre film.

Although Hugo is just a supporting role in "The Seven Deadly Sins", he shows no less skill than Anthony Hopkins in "The Silence of the Lambs", supporting the whole movie, even the old actor Morgan Freeman is slightly bleak. And most of the credit for such a brilliant box office figure of "The Seven Deadly Sins" must be recorded on Hugo's head, which is also after the past five consecutive works broke 100 million at the box office, Hugo once again proved his box office appeal.

Especially after experiencing a box office trough at the beginning of the year, the final box office results of "Seven Deadly Sins" are absolutely strong, making all doubts shut up, so that people can truly appreciate the significance of Hugo to North American audiences.

Of course, everyone knows that the real success of this film is not the box office, but the showdown between Brad and Hugo that will go down in history, especially witnessing Hugo's shocking acting skills.

"Batman Forever" was originally a strong contender for the year-end box office title, but unfortunately 184 million US dollars fell to third place, although the results are still very good, and it has also received a lot of praise, Warner Bros. has already begun to prepare for a sequel, but losing to "Toy Story" and "Seven Deadly Sins" is not a glorious thing, especially losing to the latter, it is really embarrassing.

In addition to the top three, there are seven works with a box office of more than 100 million this year, not only did they not break 200 million, but the number of 100 million box office works is also significantly less than last year.

After that, "Apollo 13", "Potas", "Detective Nose 2", "GoldenEye", "Jumanji", "Pony Pokemon" and "Die Hard 3" took the remaining positions in the top 10. However, among them, the box office of the four works after "Golden Eye" has just exceeded 100 million, and the gap between them is calculated in units of 100,000, which is really unsatisfactory.

In the year-end top 10 list, in addition to Hugo, Tom Hanks and Jim Carrey once again occupy people's attention.

Purely from the box office point of view, Tom continued his excellent performance in "Forrest Gump" last year, occupying the top spot in the North American year-end box office charts for the second year in a row. Not to mention that "Apollo 13" starring him was applauded and popular, and it also ranked fourth on the year-end list.

As a typical representative of accumulation, Tom became the second actor in film history to win the Oscar, and his career reached its peak, with a number of consecutive works with outstanding reputation and box office, coupled with a perfect family image and a gentle and humble personal image, Tom has also become a representative of typical Americans.

If purely in terms of momentum, Tom cannot be compared with Hugo, but in terms of prestige, Tom has more advantages than Hugo, who is not yet 30 years old this year.

Needless to say, Jim Carrey's "Detective Planehead" has achieved a box office of $100.8 million, and his supporting role in "Batman Forever" is in third place on the year-end list, which is also a more brilliant and outstanding report card than last year.

Just from the development curve, King has definitely made greater progress this year than Hugo, and people will judge purely from the box office numbers, 1994 is the peak of Hugo, and 1995 is the peak of Tom and Kim.

But is that really the case? Not really.

Although Hugo has not been able to continue the glory of the past two years in the top 10 with two spots each, "Death Row Walk" only ranks 15th on the list with $83 million, and "Before Sunrise" has $32 million at the box office to fall to 55th.

However, "The Seven Deadly Sins" proves Hugo's strong box office appeal, and "Death Row Walk" allows people to truly appreciate Hugo's charm as an actor, he can play a role so movingly through his own strength, and even make the audience feel the same way, this skill is enough to make countless people yearn for and admire, and what is even more commendable is that the role of Matthew in "Death Row Walk" makes people begin to have self-doubt, shake their outlook on life, values and worldview, and really consider the death penalty. This is where Hugo shines the most.

"Before Sunrise", as Hugo's screenwriting debut, was not only recognized by the Silver Bear Award for Best Director at the Berlin Film Festival, but also gave people a glimpse of Hugo's other talent; On the occasion of the arrival of major award ceremonies, Hugo has once again become a popular candidate.

Not to mention the promotion of Hugo's contribution to the entire American society from the beginning of the "Seven Deadly Sins" to the "Walk on Death Row", which is also after the "vulgarity" influenced American culture, Hugo once again incredibly became a part of history, culture, and life, leaving his mark in this era, which is the real greatness - separated from the entertainment industry itself, and has had an immeasurable impact on the entire society.

Although Hugo's three works in 1995 seem to be less influential than last year's two works, everyone clearly knows that these three works make people deeply feel Hugo's ability and talent in acting, box office, screenwriting and other aspects, and let the whole society feel Hugo's omnipresent influence. This is a height that cannot be compared with last year.

At this moment, Hugo has surpassed the limitations of Hollywood, stands at the top of the whole society, and even has the ability to influence the upcoming presidential election, this is the year when Hugo has truly become a top superstar this year.

It can be said that 1995 is a year of witnessing mythology, people have seen the ups and downs of Hugo from the so-called trough "before sunrise" to the so-called peak of the "Seven Deadly Sins", people have witnessed the growth of Hugo's acting skills from the "Seven Deadly Sins" to the "Death Row Walk", people have participated in the discussion of hot topics such as social responsibility, social indifference and cruelty of the news media triggered by Hugo, and people have appreciated Hugo's strong influence as an artist on the agency, film production company, and news media.

It was also a real sublimation from 1994 to 1995.

Of course, no one will forget that at the end of the year, Hugo once again attracted countless attention as the founder of the "20 Million Club", and Hollywood also entered the stage of changing the dynasty after the music scene.

It is unimaginable that Hugo has become the initiator and promoter of these two completely different changes, which is the real superstar style.

In addition to Hugo, Tom and King, there are still many topics in the North American year-end box office list, and the reopened "007" series is also one of the highlights of 1995. Of course, no one will forget the fiasco of "Future Water World" of only 88 million and the twelfth place on the list, and the tragedy of "Cut Throat Island" directly causing investment companies to collapse and disappear is a warning to countless companies.

In addition to the North American year-end box office list, the global year-end box office list is another battle, and the interplay between Hugo, Tom, and Kim also makes the film market, which has a slightly weak box office performance this year, shine!
