Chapter 1547 One Ends, One Comes Again
No matter how much the movie argues about word-of-mouth, the box office won't lie, although "Pokemon Green Caterpillar Evolution!" set a box office record for Zero, but the box office after that fell all the way compared to its predecessor, and finally in the third week of its release, the weekly box office slipped to less than $100 million, becoming the fastest box office drop in history.
And at this time, "The Evolution of Pokemon Green Caterpillar! In the North Rice market, the total box office is just over 400 million US dollars, which is also the lowest in history.
"The evolution of Pokemon Green Caterpillar! It seems that there is nothing wrong with a Waterloo, and the filmmakers of this country have applauded.
They used to think that the loss of "Fantastic Four" was an accidental failure.
Now it seems that the magic of Daqian movies is coming to an end, and the story that they want every movie to create a box office myth will also end, which makes the American filmmakers who have been suppressed by Daqian movies in recent years secretly refreshed.
And the Oscar jury is also very happy, they and Daqian are destined to be mortal enemies, and there is nothing in the world that makes them happier than watching Daqian eat deflated.
It's just that while these people are happy, they don't seem to think that even if the total box office in North America is only a little over 400 million US dollars, this is still the first movie to enter the top five box office in North America in the entire 98 years, and Daqian is not a loss!
What's more, with the evolution of Pokemon Green Caterpillar! ", Daqian's "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" will also be released worldwide.
For the release of The Lord of the Rings, filmmakers are generally not optimistic.
First of all, the original Lord of the Rings, although it is well-known in the world and has a large number of fans, but the Lord of the Rings is a fantasy work, and the main characters in it include dwarves, elves, dragons, wizards, orcs, tree people or something, there are too many strange races of all kinds.
In addition, the various scenes in it are also magical, and if these things want to be shown in the movie, the special effects and technical level required are too high.
It is extremely difficult to restore it perfectly.
Don't think that The Lord of the Rings has a lot of fans, then the box office will have a high base. In fact, on the contrary, the more fans there are, the more rights and wrongs there are.
The Lord of the Rings is notoriously hardcore, and the author Tolkien even created a language called Elven for the Lord of the Rings, which shows the hardcore degree of this book.
So the fans of this book are also very hardcore, and they are very valuable about every detail, and they can even fight because of it.
If there is a flaw in the "Lord of the Rings" movie, then I am afraid that it will be sprayed by angry fans immediately, and the final spray will fail miserably at the box office.
Don't you see, Daqian's "Pokemon Cracked Sky Seat Evolution!" It was because the reputation of fans collapsed in the later stage, and many fans who watched the movie complained about the movie digging holes and not filling in anything after returning home, which caused the box office to collapse badly in the later stage, so that Daqian Movie ushered in two consecutive kneeling.
In fact, "The Lord of the Rings" was published in 55 years, but it has not been released until now, so much time in between, is there really no filmmaker who has taken a fancy to this work?
Of course not, it's just that because everyone knows the difficulty of filming this film, no one dares to take over.
After Daqian announced that he would invest in the filming of the "Lord of the Rings" movie, many fans immediately jumped up against it, accusing Daqian, as a philistine filmmaker, of not understanding the essence of "The Lord of the Rings" at all.
The movie they make will only ruin the original book of The Lord of the Rings, which is a classic evil that must be stopped.
This is not empty talk, on the contrary, in a year, there have been more than 10 parades of Lord of the Rings fans at the headquarters of Daqian Films, and the largest number of people was 3,000 people.
This is not a blind blow, the Lord of the Rings in another world is also the same fate, since the announcement of the project, it has been sprayed by fans from all walks of life.
Even if the movie is released and achieves unimaginable box office achievements, it is still the Lord of the Rings that can't be sprayed, ruined The Lord of the Rings and the like.
Sometimes fans are a very quirky group of people who keep saying they love what they love, and they want to hold them up to the sky.
But the action to stop all kinds of development is also the behavior of fans, and the Lord of the Rings has not been able to adapt the movie for 40 years, and the biggest contributors are these fans.
Even Lord of the Rings-related comics, fandom and other things, fans are not allowed, even if a publisher wants to correct it, modify some obviously wrong text or something, they are all stopped by angry fans.
They believe that these words are not mistakes, but that the author deliberately did something, and that if the editor doesn't understand The Lord of the Rings, don't ruin the classics.
All in all, it is the fans who hold the work to the sky, but it is also the fans who suppress the further development of the work.
To get back to the point, it is precisely because of these many reasons that the whole world is not optimistic about "The Lord of the Rings", but this cannot prevent the premiere of "The Lord of the Rings" in the United States.
The box office at zero on the day of the premiere was quickly released, less than $20 million, which was lower than that of "Pokemon", which made many people feel relieved that "The Lord of the Rings" was on the streets.
This also made many staff members of Daqian Film worried, but our Boss Jia didn't care at all.
Because unlike many previous movies that have been changed by Boss Jia, in this "Lord of the Rings" movie, Boss Jia has not changed the slightest demon.
From the movie to the main actors, all of them were filmed by the original cast in another world, and after watching the finished film in advance, Boss Jia also felt that it was basically the same as in his previous life, and there was no difference.
is such a popular movie in the previous life, it is impossible for this world to hit the streets.
Sure enough, although the results of the zero point field were not satisfactory, everyone who came out of the movie theater was full of excitement and wanted to tell everyone what a magical world they saw.
So on the second day, the box office of "The Lord of the Rings" began to grow, and finally the box office reached $60 million on the first day, and then the box office exceeded $90 million on the second day, and it directly won more than $200 million in the first weekend.
This made all the people who were not optimistic before have an ominous premonition, and a whirlwind has gradually formed around the world.
Yes, at this time, Boss Jia didn't care about the trend after "The Lord of the Rings", he was more concerned about another movie: "Romance of the Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turban Rebellion"
