Chapter 88 Overseas Situation (Fourth Update)
A mention must be made to "Europe Raiders"!
With an investment of 300 million, it gathered the standard combination of Liang Chaowei + Wu Yifan + Tangtang, actor + top traffic Xiaosheng + popular traffic actress.
Director Ma Chucheng started by relying on the "Raiders" series, and that year's "Tokyo Raiders" directly won the runner-up in Hong Kong's annual box office, and the second part of the series, that is, "Hancheng Raiders", also brushed 41 million box office, ranking sixth at the annual Chinese film box office.
It stands to reason that "Europe Raiders" is not much worse...
No matter how nonsense the plot is, can you talk about "Hancheng Raiders"?
Besides, with Liang Chaowei, how rotten can it be?
It's a pity that Wei Zai's three works in the past few years after "The Grandmaster", "The Ferryman" and "Monster Hunt 2", have exhausted their good reputation.
Ma Chucheng is not good at telling stories, and the highest rating of the director's work is "Wish", which completely relies on Zhang Baizhi's anti-heaven talent...
His strength lies in the very commercial shots and images!
Photographer by origin!
The style is a bit similar to the director of "Spy Shadow", but unfortunately, Ma Chucheng probably forgot that the audience in this year has long been accustomed to the bombardment of various commercial films around the world, and his set can't play anymore!
Therefore, even if it takes 20% of the film schedule, the box office is still beaten, with a single-day revenue of 80 million, and the single-day box office of "Truman's World", which is similar to its film schedule, is 140 million...
The so-called feelings, for the audience, are donations.
Oolong Europe, this is the sentiment of the week.
There is a wide river between the director and the audience, and the crew's knife for cutting leeks is sharpened, and they row the boat excitedly, finding that the audience is no longer there...
It's just a little hard to figure it out, Gu Tsai's bad movie is probably due to a lack of donations, Sister Wang's singing for a bad movie is probably losing playing cards, Andy is a human debt, Ah Wei, are you really a naked loan?
Wu Yifan's fans are also a little pitiful, Tiger Pounce, Douban, Tianya, Zhihu, and all the stickers except Wu Yifan's post bar, they can't accommodate them, they can only inhabit Weibo, with the water army as their companion, fantasizing about Wu Yifan's movie box office hit, fantasizing that dozens or hundreds of people can change the score of Douban...
The most distressing thing is that Wang Jiawei's "Flowers", which has been painted for more than a year, directly denies the triple hit...
……
It's a bit surprising that "Megalodon" actually maintained the championship at the North American box office for five days!
With 90.21 million US dollars in a single week, breaking 100 million is predictable!
The climax of a co-production!
The Great Wall was exactly a quarter of it...
Before the official release, my first impression of "Megalodon" probably felt that it was still one of the many bad Sino-American co-productions: the word-of-mouth was so bad that it exploded, and the box office was miserable...
It is probably the most profound impression left by Sino-US co-productions to most moviegoers.
Either China's bad movies are escorted under the banner of Hollywood;
Either some domestic "Hua Dan" is dressed in international giant gold and silver plating;
Either it's bad foreign movies that use domestic star traffic to make money;
In short, we are already familiar with this routine, with a three-point immunity effect and passive defense!
So for a film like "Megalodon", I believe that most people have the same attitude at the beginning: they don't have a cold!
However, within ten days of its release, the global box office of "Megalodon" exceeded 300 million US dollars, and the domestic box office has exceeded 700 million!
In terms of the performance of the overseas market alone, "Truman's World" was lost in seconds - the latter was released for ten days, and the overseas box office was reported to be 88 million US dollars, which is more than 100 million lower than "Megalodon", but fortunately, the mainland box office beat "Megalodon"...
In fact, after a series of "baptisms", Chinese moviegoers have come to a simple conclusion about this model: Chinese beauty + Hollywood movie = soy sauce sister
Da Tiantian was directly nicknamed "the first sister of soy sauce" by domestic moviegoers...
Lotus himself was also surprised, in recent years, Lotus's sense of existence is really a heaven and an underground compared to Fan Ye!
Lotus is even so low-key that she can even be robbed of seats at the event...
But "Megalodon" is so explosive!
There is no sign at all, on the first day of release, 70 million box office, and on the second day, 80 million box office, there is no single day that breaks 100 million...
However, the cumulative box office is quite considerable, especially the two dramas in the ring at the same time are allegorical movies, which can attract a group of audiences to watch the movie!
Facts have proved that the story created in strict accordance with the script assembly line operation method of three climaxes is welcomed by both China and the United States!
……
"Truman's World" was released for ten days, with a box office of 2.1 billion, and an estimated total box office of 3.2 billion - mainly "Ant-Man 2" and "Mission Impossible 6" will be released next...
Longitudinal comparison, in the works of director Bai Xiaofei, it is not a high box office, but in horizontal comparison, among all domestic literary films, there is no one before...
As for whether there are latecomers, it's hard to say...
Many box office experts were speechless, especially the professional filmmakers of Wanda Cinemas - it is said that Lao Wang fired more than a dozen professional filmmakers in a fit of anger...
For such a big piece of cake, Wanda only accounts for 6 percent, far below the average level of 13 percent!
However, the dismissal of the filmmaker does not explain that the literary film can have such a high box office for Mao!
Because of the Palme d'Or?
Let's pull the calf!
That year's "Fireworks in the Day" also won the Golden Bear Award, why was the box office only 100 million?
Simply say that a certain movie has won an international award, and after returning to China, fans will definitely go to the cinema to buy tickets?
Don't be funny!
Then, Bai Xiaofei's box office appeal is amazing?
This one is definitely there, but it's not so amazing!
The young generation in China, the first international film festival actor, is very popular, but a literary film, with just one star, can provoke a box office of 2 billion in the first week?
Let's pull the calf!
Is that the other actors?
Zhang Ziyi, Qin Hailu?
Lan Yingying, Zhang Shan?
Then back to the story!
The narrative structure of "Truman's World" is very Hollywood, otherwise it would not have won nearly $40 million at the box office in North America, but just by telling a good story, it can get a high box office, and "Donkey Gets Water" is not happy!
It simply doesn't make sense!
No matter how this box office experts analyze, the reality is that "Truman's World" was released for ten days and had a box office of 2.1 billion, not only that, but the overseas box office reported 88 million US dollars!
And a good review!
Roger Ebert, the No. 1 film critic in North America, said: An absurd and nonsensical fable of life, a strong satire on the social phenomenon of profit-seeking and human rights abuse, a powerful criticism of the value of "the omnipotence of the media", is an inspiring and thought-provoking black comedy, showing people the world infiltrated by the media in a satirical way, and using a virtual perfect world similar to "utopia" to imply the "caged bird" style of survival sorrow.
He gave eight points!
David called and said directly that "Truman's World" is scheduled to be the best foreign language film at this year's Oscars!
