Chapter six hundred and eighty first death without going to the toilet

Box office record, deformation!

"Transformers" broke the box office record on the first day of its release in North America, and the box office on Tuesday reached $35.4 million, setting a North American box office record on Tuesday.

By Wednesday, the film's box office rose instead of falling. Although it only rose by 5%, the $37.17 million also set a new North American box office record on Wednesday.

But this was a weekday after all. After consuming a lot of Transformers fans' enthusiasm two days ago, the video fell 11% on Thursday, closing at $33.08 million.

In just three days of non-holidays, Transformers' North American box office exceeded the $100 million mark.

Among them, the fans accumulated by Transformers over the years and Duke's strong personal appeal have played an extremely critical role.

Starting Friday, Transformers ushered in its first weekend in North America. Due to the previous three days of screening, the reputation of the film has spread. Despite its praise and criticism, audiences still flocked to it.

Because by word of mouth among ordinary audiences, "Transformers" is an extremely exciting science fiction action blockbuster, and such a film is the type that is most popular among summer audiences.

"In those beautiful times, our eyes were full of bright colors, dazzling deformation movements; our ears were full of mechanical friction sounds, and the rhythmic rock music; magical science fiction concepts and endless technological terms made the little brain in front of the TV run with all their strength; in those times, we all became little audiences next to the cosmic stage, and gained all kinds of joy, anger, sorrow and happiness from the contest between good and evil, beauty and ugliness, good and evil."

"The magnificent imagination, vivid stories, and excellent production make "Transformers" perfectly integrated into our childhood life and become an indelible classic in memories."

The repeated viewing of Transformers fans is the most basic guarantee for the box office of this film.

The support of most passers-by is the key to the rapid progress of "Transformers" box office.

Since the release of "Transformers", there have been commentators criticizing it, believing that its commercial taste is too strong, but the overall evaluation of mainstream media and movie fans in North America was quite positive. The shocking action scenes and magnificent background music were enough to make the audience excited. Many passers-by said that the visual impact of this film is no less than the feeling of watching "Jurassic Park" in 1993. "Even if you are stunned in the theater, you will never go to the toilet even if you die!"

Although the film is more teenager, there are quite a few viewers in their thirties and forties.

"I was in my thirties, and the moment I heard Optimus Prime say 'Automan transformed' in the cinema, I burst into tears." This was the speech of a movie fan on the forum, and the generation he represented had deep feelings for "Transformers" which was the basis for this live-action animated film to achieve such a high box office.

Mike Walman, spokesman for the publisher Warner Bros., also stood up and shouted for the film, "Transformers created the best three-working day box office ever, and the movie has a wide range of appeal. It's the kind of summer blockbuster that can attract a whole family to watch, and we'll be excited to see it continue to thrive on weekends."

Indeed, "Transformers" has received mixed reviews in North America, but the criticisms are basically from the serious decline in professional film criticism.

Like "Duke Rosenberg can't show the humanity and depth of the character at all", "the director who once filmed such an excellent work as "The Dark Knight" actually made such a bad movie" has been endless.

Even Kenneth Tulan, a column critic of the Los Angeles Times who treats Duke with a friendly attitude, thinks he has done a bit too much in special effects.

"The robots crashed into each other and broke through the entire building. When the building fell down, the fighter circled over his head. The ultimate battle between Megatron and the decent hero Optimus Prime... Amid the sound of the battle, there were strong heavy metal music accompaniment. There were too many scenes of gi production. There were too many things that made people unable to bear it, and it made people feel that there was no need for this. The crew should evaluate their strategies again, and should not simply play these deformations and games on the screen. I mean. gi is a crucial element of this movie, but our pizza cannot be all composed of gi."

However, not many movie fans bought their accounts. "Transformers" was filmed and produced, and it was not for anyone who likes warm movies.

The box office is undoubtedly the best proof of the film's popularity in North America.

The box office numbers that can be obtained on the weekend are undoubtedly very important for a summer commercial masterpiece. On Friday, the first weekend, "Transformers" delivered an extremely outstanding answer.

Even though it had been screened in North America for three days, the film still received $37.26 million on Friday.

After the global premiere in China, the crew was divided into two parts. Duke led a small number of people to stay in China to cooperate with the film's promotion in the entire Western Pacific region. Tina Fe led the crew's main cast and crew back to North America, focusing on the promotion of the North American market.

In an announcement, Tina Fei, who is a producer, was also asked by reporters about professional critics critics critics critics criticizing the film.

Influenced by Duke, her disgust towards film critics is deeply rooted.

"All crew members did our best to work hard. I'm very happy to see that the audience loved this movie except for the critics. Let's ignore those critics. Can they represent the audience? No! So, the first thing to do is to make the audience like it."

Facing many media reporters, Tina Fei said nothing at all. "In North America, the concept of free market is deeply rooted in people's hearts. If the audience does not like a video, they would not invest a cent on it. But the current situation is that most viewers obviously like "Transformers", so why bother with the opinions of a group with only more than 300 people?"

Compared to Duke's sometimes paying attention to public image, Tina Fey's words are more direct. "Despite being slammed by critics, most viewers still flock to the cinema to watch the live-action movie "Transformers". This fact is the main reason why critics are angry and slammed by the film because their comments are always ignored by the public."

"They are a group of people living in the past. Times have changed, but they have not changed. They still think that they are the center of the film industry. A film review can determine the life or death of a movie. They always take it for granted and choose movies for all viewers in the United States according to their own ideas. What kind of video should be watched and what kind of video should not be watched if they want to influence them."

"But now the information is more free, a new generation. If you choose a movie, you won't believe in any professional. They will buy tickets according to their preferences. To be honest, film critics are an industry that is rapidly falling."

"It is this situation that has led to many critics' dissatisfaction. They began to change their relatively fair position before and always wanted to point fingers at young audiences. They should have objective comments on the movie itself, but in the end they conflicted with mainstream audiences. It was just because they abandoned the movie angle and used themselves as the correct standard, and attacked the audience's preferences with high standards."

"In fact, these critics are no longer worthy of our attention. They are almost not 'commenting movies'," they are just 'clamoring hard', wanting to restore their glorious status as film critics ten or even twenty years ago."

When the reporter asked about his opinion on Duke's work, Tina Fei praised it all. "We friends call his working style the 'Du-style operating system', which feels like dealing with war. It's messy and blew up. There are explosions everywhere. There are cameras everywhere around the venue. When you stand there, you will feel like a fool. You don't know what to do. But Duke's editing is completed. Oh my god, the effect is amazing. He just completed a ballet with a camera. He knows exactly which fragment should be spelled out where he is. He has a very smart mind."

The data released by a certain investigation agency may be the best annotation for Tina Fei's views on film critics.

Inemasore conducted a four-day statistical survey in four of the most famous theaters in the United States. After the results of the survey, which was directly named "Will you choose a video based on the reviews of famous critics?" were released, and the well-known critics were placed in an extremely embarrassing position.

The survey results released on many mainstream media showed that the audiences of the four theaters who completely ignored the reviewers were 84%, 79%, 81%, and 82%.

The audience who really chooses a film based on the reviews of well-known film critics are 2.3%, 1.9%, 2.2% and 1.3%, and these people are almost all viewers over the age of 35.

Of course, the box office of "Transformers" on Saturday and Sunday is also proof that the market influence of professional film critics is completely negligible.

Although the box office has shown a downward trend in the past two days, the decline is limited, and "Transformers" is operating completely in a normal, healthy and in line with market laws.

Saturday's single-day box office fell by 4% compared to Friday, earning $35.77 million; Sunday's decline was slightly higher, but it was only 11%, closing at $31.83 million.

In its first weekend in North America, Transformers easily won the box office championship with $14.86 million.

The film's North American box office also reached US$210.51 million.

"Transformers" not only achieved remarkable results in the North American market, but also became very popular in hundreds of countries and countries released overseas. For example, in South Korea, it is not only the best online pre-sale movie tickets in South Korea's film history, but also attracted 4.31 million viewers in one week of release, setting a new South Korean box office record.

Also in this week, Transformers made a mad roll of $232.11 million from overseas.

In just seven days after its release, the global box office reached a terrifying figure of US$442.62 million.

Although it is not as good as the global box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" of more than $450 million in the first week, this is already a very impressive result for a non-sequel movie.

In addition, "Transformers" also created a very strange event in China. (To be continued ~^~)
