According to the weekend box office forecast released on the 6th, the total box office revenue of "The Hangover" in North America has reached $105 million since its release for 9 days, making it the shortest restricted film in Hollywood history to exceed $100 million. The previous record for free e-book download was 11 days, set by "The City," which was released last year.
was released in two weeks and 11 days, and won a total of $136.2 million at the box office, making a lot of money.
Restricted films are films that are watched by an adult for audiences under the age of 17. Industry insiders predict that "The Hangover" will eventually earn $200 million at the box office. This is undoubtedly an unexpected surprise for the ** film company - Phantom, which only invested more than 30 million US dollars to shoot the film.
Sony Pictures' remake of the 1974 thriller of the same name, "Riding the Subway Ride," released last weekend and came in at No. 3 at the box office with $25 million. The film was directed by movie star Denzel? Washington and John? Travolta co-stars the story of four robbers who commit hijackings on the New York subway to extort a huge ransom. And last weekend's other new film, Eddie? Murphy's comedy "Land of Fantasy" came in at the box office with only $5.7 million, another box office failure after Murphy starred in the sci-fi comedy "Flying Ship Dave" last summer.
was torn apart by the dark horse "Hangover", the dark horse among the dark horses.
The New York Times analyzed last week's box office in an entertainment column, and the most talked about was, of course, "The Hangover", which successfully defended the North American box office champion:
"The Hangover" relied on its blockbuster opening box office, good word-of-mouth, and showed the strong stamina of comedy as scheduled. It is not an exaggeration to describe "The Hangover" as a hit. Previously, due to the comprehensive predictions of 625 experts on boxofficemojo, many forecasters believed that "The Flying House" would surpass "The Hangover" this week and win the top spot at the North American box office again, so I was not optimistic about "The Hangover" at first.
But the Chinese who stirred up the storm in the United States, first chatted on Twitter, did not spend any money, and actually instigated the biggest news of the week to build momentum for the movie.
Later, he took the initiative to watch the movie "Flying House" by retreating, won the favor of Disney, and did not choose a hard-fought competition that both sides lost. This is very beneficial for his small company.
Since last week, "The Hangover" has beaten "Flying House" by a margin of $16 million, showing strong strength and thus winning the next consecutive year. In fact, if you analyze it deeply, it is not difficult to find that the success of "The Hangover" is not without reason.
In addition to the excellent su zhì of the film itself, first of all, the trailer of "The Hangover" is well-made, which perfectly shows the weird plot of the film After the single party of the groom + three groomsmen, the groom disappeared but there was an extra tiger and a baby!
Perfectly arouse the curiosity of the audience. The film entered the publicity stage in the first week of filming, and the whole film was only more than three months from the start of filming to the release, which can be described as a rapid production.
Secondly, the film's first starring Li Donglai is now popular. was lucky enough to emerge with the role of the little werewolf in "Twilight", and then seized the opportunity to become a blockbuster Oriental handsome guy. With indescribable personal charm, he comes from ancient China, has mysterious Chinese kung fu, and does not know Tyson, and has become a good friend who drinks together for three days.
In just over a year, the number of Twitter followers has risen to the top ten. (It was first at one point before, but then it was lowered.) )
What amazes people is not his popularity, but his IQ. According to the South Korean media, he has a high IQ of more than two hundred, which is simply a genius.
Previously, it was widely believed that he would make action movies, but with his popularity, he did not follow the path everyone expected. He's smart enough to not fix his image, and he's just as comfortable starring in romantic comedies.
So, under many coincidences, the first and most likely black horse in the summer file has been created!
The cake of the comedy market was fully captured by "The Hangover", and its strong appearance suddenly made everyone who doubted it before shut up, and the box office review list described this weekend's champion as: "Li Donglai's pure box office bomb, all the audience is laughing, and the whole comedy world is trembling with fear." ”
Although it was almost time to get off work, the editorial office of the entertainment section of the Los Angeles Times was still busy, Catherine sitting in a rotating chair looked at the computer screen, her hands were tapping quickly on the keyboard, but she didn't expect her prediction to be successful, "The Hangover" and Li Donglai were like a lion rushing into the flock, using his small ** film company to overturn the giant Disney.
She shook her head with a smile and couldn't help but think to herself, "The highest-grossing R-rated comedy of all time?" The highest-grossing Las Vegas travelogue movie? Maybe a good title. Her heart fluttered, and she began to type on the keyboard.
……
On the other side, Li Donglai just hung up the phone with Lin Yun'er. Although it is a one-person phone, there is a tendency to become a nine-person public phone. I have to deal with nine mouths at once, which makes Brother Donglai sweat every time.
Fortunately, there are two other confidantes who can let Donglai Ge soothe his nerves.
Sun Meimei is intellectually open, and she is also very beautiful. Kim cuties are a bit tricky, but who says men are cheap? That's true. Maybe it's best if you can't get it. Jin Meimei's intellectual beauty fascinates Donglaige, but she is too intellectual to accept other things in her relationship. So it's a bit of a departure from the east. Brother Donglai loves her like this, so he naturally stalks her. Emotional offensive, do everything. Porridge on the phone, sweet words. Material offensive, gift-giving, air-to-air interaction.
So don't look at Brother Donglai as the shopkeeper in the company, in fact, he is very busy.
Putting down the phone, he stretched. Calling Rodro, the two decided to go out for a walk.
Outside his rented apartment, next to the trees on the street, these areas are public areas and are the legitimate places where the paparazzi work. Li Donglai didn't feel much superior to the paparazzi in his heart, and after taking off that layer of skin, everyone was the same. But for the paparazzi, it really can't be too intimate.
You show a little friendliness, and they're like a dog skin plaster. But these guys won't tell you anything affectionate, and they ask questions that you hate to answer. So after dealing with them for a long time, Li Donglai returned to a cold look in the face of them.
The day before yesterday, a tabloid seemed to have reported that the paparazzi at his door had a fight because of a conflict over a position. I don't know if it's true or not, and Li Donglai doesn't care.
His mind is always on the alert, always reminding himself, "Don't take yourself too seriously." ”
The paparazzi around this apartment, laughing and talking, staring at the target, have now exceeded 20 people. The reason is naturally that Li Donglai has another movie released, another hot and popular work, "The Hangover" collected 136 million in 11 days, setting the best opening record for R-level comedy.
Moreover, the second part of "Twilight", "Moonlight", seems to have begun to enter the promotion period. Li Donglai's Internet search volume is soaring wildly, and his popularity is also soaring wildly...
Last time, a guy took a photo of Li Donglai practicing topless, and he was bought by Apple in the UK at a high price. I heard that the guy bought a sports car the next day, and he was the envy of countless peers.
Now the news and street photos of the "Chinese" are worth and are valuable, websites, newspapers, magazines are very happy to buy them, and he is now on fire. And the paparazzi know which type of photo is the most valuable, because Li Donglai has not yet dated any female celebrities, and no woman has entered his apartment.
"Maybe it's a gay!" There are malicious speculations.
