Chapter 321 "The Hangover" topped the North American box office. The weekend box office was 14.77 million, and the cumulative box office was 14.89 million! No. 3 at the North American box office that week!
The movie "The Hangover" has only been officially released on a large scale in the United States for three days, and it has actually received such crazy good results!
The entire American film market was amazed by this achievement, and was even more curious about "The Hangover." Almost the entire Chinese mainland rejoiced at this box office, and many fans were as happy as if it was the New Year.
In just three days, The Hangover achieved an almost miraculous feat in the United States!
The box office of 14.89 million US dollars surpassed the 2002 film "Monsoon Wedding" directed by Indian director Milla Nair, and became the 13th in the box office list of foreign language films in the US film box office market!
It's only been three days!
"Crazy! Lose your marbles! This movie is insane! An American box office commentator is saying in his rather horrified voice, "Who put 'The Hangover' in?" This is a movie made by the Chinese! Why is the box office so terrifying? Oh, my God! Could it be that "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Heroes" are back? However, "The Hangover" is obviously a comedy! In addition to kung fu movies, Chinese comedies can also take away our box office? ”
"What a crazy movie! Chinese movies are once again booming! It can't be helped, their movies are sometimes so popular! But I watched this movie, and it was really fun! Very funny! Such a box office ...... It makes sense! ”
"After so many years, Chinese films have come to such glory again...... However, this time it's not Ang Lee, it's not Zhang Yimou, it's Luo Mo! A 25 year old little guy! He directed and acted in this movie! Moreover, you read it right, this Chinese-language movie that took three days to cut off many other foreign language films is not a kung fu movie, but a comedy! Actually, I can't believe it myself...... But it's true! ”
"The Americans are crazy again! Why do you like "The Hangover" so much? It doesn't seem to be because there's Jackie Chan in it...... That big nose doesn't have such a high box office appeal. You guys actually gave this movie such a high box office because it was so funny...... But our movie is also very funny! ”
"Luo Mo...... This name, after "The Hangover", will rise in the United States! More and more people will know him! ”
…… All sorts of voices flooded the United States, as everyone was stunned by the flawless weekend of "The Hangover," which was completely beyond everyone's expectations.
At this time, the news that "The Hangover" was so amazing at the weekend box office in North America spread to China, causing a wave of overwhelming celebration-
"Luo Mo is really a god! His movies are also gods! Oh my God, it's only been three days and I'm 13th on the list of historical foreign language films...... How much will he reach at the end of the year? It's really unimaginable! ”
"Hope for Chinese films! I just said that he is the hope of Chinese movies, let's take a look at it now, Luo Mo's new movie, when Chinese movies sank in the United States, he suddenly made such a terrible box office...... It's unbelievable! ”
"Really proud! So proud! How can Luo Mo be so good! This is really special to win glory for Chinese films, this is completely a hero in the film industry! He has brought new glory to Chinese films! ”
…… Luo Mo's fame, as well as the effect of "The Hangover", reached 14.47 million at the weekend box office of "The Hangover", and after the total box office reached 14.89 million, it can be said that it is in full swing in the mainland! Other directors, let's say Feng Xiaogang, he has always been synonymous with box office miracles in China, but his films ...... Are there any big sellers in North America? Not a single one! The most qualified blockbuster "Night Banquet" is also a mess in North America! These directors can only draw one acre and three points of land in China, but Luo Mo's films have invaded overseas, not counting Asia, and they have also stirred up such a dark cloud in North America!
His directing talent, his ability, is now amplified by many people......
At this time, "The Hangover" got a super high weekend box office in the North American market, and the "Monsoon Banquet" of the Indian director exploded in one fell swoop, and it also spread around the world at once. After all, the North American box office market is the largest movie box office market in the world, and it is natural that everyone will pay close attention to it, and many foreigners will pay close attention to this movie box office market, and now suddenly they see a Chinese movie jumping out on the weekend, and it actually gets such a high box office, so it is very controversial.
Within the scope of the whole world, there are also many people discussing this movie and Luo Mo-
"Luo Mo, I checked...... It seems that a 25-year-old director in China...... But he directed and acted in this self-directed movie...... That's amazing! ”
"It's amazing, it's amazing...... Doesn't it mean that Chinese movies have not been good in the past two years? But now it doesn't seem to be true! Their "Hangover" is starting to rise again! ”
The Indian Assans were full of depression because their "Monsoon Banquet" was stabbed with chrysanthemums by "The Hangover"-
"Where did Luo Mo run out...... Where did the Chinese movies come out? It's really depressing, did they cheat? Otherwise, how can we brush down all our movies! ”
"It's hateful, that director is only 25 years old...... Is Chinese cinema going to be revived......"
"This movie was also very popular in Asia before, I really don't know how such a freak came out of China. This is an enviable achievement. ”
South Korea's Smecta said sourly and happily: "South Korea is the only country that Luo Mo has visited after the release of "The Hangover"! ”
"In fact, Luo Mo has always shown respect for this country when he was in South Korea, and I estimate that many elements in "The Hangover" borrowed some Korean culture, Korean life background or something. So this movie has a lot of credit to Koreans......"
The three buddies shouted in unison: "Cut!" ”
All parts of the world are now very shocked because of a "hangover", and the people of the entire world are amazed by the young Chinese man named Luo Mo who created the miracle of "The Hangover".
At this time, Luo Mo also knew the news of the box office success of "The Hangover" in the United States, and it only took three days to rush to the thirteenth, Luo Mo himself actually didn't expect that "The Hangover" could really sell so well in North America! It seems that the next box office will also rise.
But if you think about it carefully, "The Hangover" was originally plagiarized by Luo Mo from an American movie, and "The Hangover" also caused a sensation when it was released in the United States.
This also means that Luo Mo's gamble again has begun to move towards a big win!
The weekend box office of "The Hangover" gave MGM a very satisfactory answer, and it also filled in the test sheet for the North American market with quite good numbers. Next, "The Hangover" continued to increase the scale of filming, after all, the box office response of the film was so good, and the word of mouth was so good, it was time to increase the weight of the film.
After the first week of "The Hangover" passed in North America, it cut a total of $28.87 million at the box office that week! And this week, according to the agreement, the distribution company of "The Hangover" can share 73% of the box office revenue, the domestic box office can share 53%, and Luo Mo Studio can share 40%.
This income is still very good, and it can even exceed the share of the domestic box office...... It's just that this is the first week, and the box office share in the second week will drop to 60%, and the studio's share will only reach about 33%, and it will decrease in the third week, but of the 28.87 million US dollars in the first week, 11.54 million box office will reach Luo Mo's studio...... The $13 million publicity investment has basically recovered the cost!
Moreover, the total box office of 28.87 million US dollars accumulated this week, for the significance of "The Hangover", what is more important is not the income from the box office of Luo Mo Studio, but the income from fame......
"The Hangover" accumulated a box office of 28.87 million in the first week, surpassing the Chinese film "Huo Yuanjia" starring Li Lianjie on the list of foreign language films in the US box office rankings, and entered the top six of the total box office list of foreign language films in the United States! It's just a little bit behind the $33.2 million of the French film "Amelie", which ranked fifth! In the second week, this gap can be caught up!
Chinese-language films have once again rushed to the top 10 of the box office charts of foreign language films in the United States, which is a big deal! Previously, 4 Chinese films ranked in the top 10 on the list of foreign language films in the United States, but it is a pity that because the previous tenth place was the Chinese movie "Kung Fu", and now "The Hangover" is on the top, squeezing "Kung Fu" out of the top ten, so there are still 4 Chinese films in the top 10 on the box office list of foreign language films in North America.
But even so, it's a rare improvement!
The box office ranking of Chinese films in North American foreign languages is actually really good, with four films occupying the top 10 positions, but this position has not been joined by Chinese films for a long time...... And now, "The Hangover" has finally completed a historic breakthrough.
Throughout Chinese mainland, many fans are now jubilant for Luo Mo, and they are even more looking forward to whether "The Hangover" can reach a more terrifying level next!
There are also many people in the entire world who are now paying attention to "The Hangover", paying attention to this Chinese film that has broken the law of Chinese film blockbuster = kung fu film, what kind of miracle can it get in the North American market.
Then, then, another weekend begins! "The Hangover" this weekend, because of the huge impact of word-of-mouth, more and more people want to go into the cinema to see this unique and very funny comedy in China, so in the second weekend of the release of "The Hangover" in the United States, the box office of this movie has actually increased compared to the first weekend! In the second weekend, "The Hangover" did not go downhill, but walked out of a very surprising uphill road, grabbing $16.87 million at the box office in three days over the weekend, and the cumulative box office for the week reached 30.14 million...... It has historically exceeded $30 million, and the cumulative box office has also reached $45.06 million...... So far, "The Hangover" has surpassed the French film "Amelie" and the Mexican film "Pan's Labyrinth", close to the figure of 57.56 million US dollars for Chinese film heroes, and has become the fourth place in the box office list of foreign language films in the United States!
So far, after many years, a Chinese-language film has once again entered the top five of the box office list of foreign language films in the United States!
So far, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Hero", "Hangover" ...... Chinese-language films occupy three of the top five positions in the box office charts of foreign language films in the United States!
This is a historic moment!
Moreover, after this week, the box office of "The Hangover" of $30.14 million that week also beat other American movies and successfully reached the top, becoming the American movie box office champion of the week! After "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Hero", after many years, Chinese films finally have another movie that stands at the peak of the North American movie box office.
It is also a historic moment.
Everyone has waited too long, too long! It's just that this miracle-creating Chinese film is not a familiar costume action movie...... It's a comedy!
In this way, Luo Mo's name temporarily stands with the names of Li An and Zhang Yimou......
Many parts of the world are horrified by the incredible achievements of "The Hangover", and Chinese mainland is cheering excitedly for this prosperous era of Chinese films......
Everyone has been suppressed for too long and has waited too long!
And now, I can finally live up to the name and cheer to my heart's content!
