Chapter 825 Numbers that must be remembered in film history
"The Avengers" is full of paintings, and it ranks second in the box office in the midnight show!"
Early on Friday morning, almost all major entertainment media that received relevant statistics posted similar news on the front page headlines.
"In the early morning, Duke Rosenberg's carefully created supermaster "Avengers" officially landed in North America theaters. Its midnight show won $33.8 million, successfully surpassing "The Dark Knight" to become the new superhero movie and Duke Rosenberg's midnight box office record king."
"Although this data is not small compared to the total box office of the terrifying $43.5 million midnight show last year's "Harry Potter and Deathly Hallows (Part 2), Marvel's heroes still prove that the charm of gathering together to fight monsters is super worth it. In particular, the super good reputation effect of "Avengers" and the huge enthusiasm of movie fans have made box office analysts optimistic about their subsequent market performance..."
Just as the media said, the North American film market, composed of teenagers as the main body, burst into terrifying enthusiasm on Friday.
Los Angeles, three chain theaters located in Santa Monica Commercial Plaza, welcomed dozens of customers from the first time they opened in the morning. After fifteen minutes, the number of people in each theater increased by five times.
By noon, the three chain theaters in the square, Amg, Emperor Entertainment and Artist, were already crowded with people, and every corner of the hall was crowded with people. Each theater had to work in busy ticket sales and screenings, and some staff were assigned to maintain order on the scene, because many people who could not buy tickets were complaining.
There is no way, the three theaters have almost screened "Avengers" on almost all the screens that can be taken out, but because it is a super popular location, the tickets are simply not enough.
"I don't care what you explain to the publisher!"
In an office in the Imperial Cinema, the theater manager was yelling at the film scheduling supervisor, "In addition to maintaining 15% of the film scheduling of "The Hunger Games" and a theater takes turns to screen other films, I want all screens to screen "Avengers"!"
The Avengers craze came naturally. There had been a long queue on Times Square in New York. There was only one purpose for these people to queue up. Waiting to watch "Avengers"!
This scene immediately attracted media attention and NB's TV broadcasting car and reporters had already arrived, constantly interviewing the movie fans in line.
A movie fan showed the North American Captain's shield backpack he was carrying to the camera, "I am a supporter of Captain America!"
Many movie fans who were interviewed yelled at the camera that they liked heroes.
"I'm a fan of Iron Man!"
"I love Thor and Loki the most!"
"I like Black Widow. I like Scarlett? Johnson!"
"I'm not a fan of any superheroes. I'm watching this video because I like Duke Rosenberg's video!"
Even on Friday, "Avengers" has triggered a nationwide viewing boom, starting in the afternoon. The attendance rate of theaters screening "Avengers" is basically more than 60%. The theaters in popular locations such as Santa Monica Commercial Plaza and New York Times Square cannot describe the number of fans gathered.
The Avengers sparked such a craze, which is also consistent with Duke's expectations, as well as Warner Bros. and Marvel Studios.
First of all, the promotional preparations for the film are extremely large. From Duke's directing of "Iron Man" to "Captain America", "Hulk", "Iron Man 2" and "Thor", movies about the Avengers have been staged in just a few years, which undoubtedly has accumulated a high popularity for the current collective mobilization. The easter eggs after each movie directly laid the groundwork for this masterpiece. The snowball is getting bigger and bigger and more business is getting more and more done. Duke and Marvel have pushed super hero-themed movies into a virtuous cycle.
Secondly, it is very rare for so many super heroes to gather together. As a representative of American pop culture, it is difficult for movie audiences with young audiences to not develop a star worship mentality. The movie derivatives spread all over the streets and alleys are full of related topics on the forum websites.
Again, the quality of the film is definitely the best choice. Before it was released, it has accumulated a good reputation through early marketing, and the audience who have watched it after it was released also gave positive reviews. What's more, the video's visual effects are shocking, which is worth going to the cinema to see. The 3D version has also accelerated the box office popularity.
Finally, the atmosphere of the movie is relaxed and humorous. The heroes who looked tall in the past gained human affinity, and such characters who broke the established impressions were more likely to gain favorable feelings for both young and old.
Of course, the most important factor in the Avengers being so popular is marketing and... This is a relaxed and refreshing popcorn movie!
Even if the director was replaced by Duke, "Avengers" still has no so-called depth and philosophical thinking. This is a story that tells the result at the beginning: bad people want to rule the earth, good people form alliances, and after a series of running-in, they defeat bad people and save the world.
This is also a movie that combines Hollywood's usual tricks: super cool fights, dense jokes, handsome men and beautiful women gathering, promoting justice and friendship.
Unfortunately, this routine succeeded again.
Although some people complain that the villain is too weak and the heroes are not playing enough, "Avengers" is enough to make the audience scream and laugh in the cinema while happily unpacking their pockets.
This is the biggest factor in the success of "Avengers". It is not artificial or profound. The movie experience is just one word!
On the instant sharing website, the fastest and most forwarded message on Friday comes from "Avengers". After watching the video, an ordinary audience wrote a sentence after "Avengers", and there is no more movie to watch this summer!
This also makes those who are full of literary style very unhappy.
However, no matter how they insult them, they cannot change the fact that Avengers will inevitably succeed and gain an unparalleled reputation.
Some people always look down on commercial films, thinking that any director can produce a sufficiently good commercial film as long as he or she has sufficient funds.
But is this the truth? In Hollywood, almost everyone recognizes that the shooting of large-scale commercial films is far more difficult than that of ** movies!
Rome was not built in one day, and "Avengers" is not successful if you put a few superheroes together. Not everyone can shoot popcorn movies that seem to be unnutritional, but also require continuous innovation and improvement.
When the audience is tired of the heroes' fighting alone, they consider uniting the heroes; after the success of the alliance, they will tailor their own series for each hero. Only by constantly studying the market can the foundation for maintaining the continuous contribution of high-yield products in this industry and the foundation for the film industry to maintain its status and development!
As the scope of the film's screening expanded, some disagreements and even sarcasm appeared.
"The rhythm of the film is divided into many types, with visual rhythm and emotional rhythm. For the film, emotional rhythm is a necessary condition. Visual rhythm is an irrelevant condition. The visual rhythm without emotional rhythm is really sleepy. They are fighting fiercely. The audience is like watching a few runny kids fighting for a piece of bubble gum. It is incredible but they still have to pretend to be interested in shaking flags and shouting. This is simply too funny."
Superhero movies like this cannot be liked by everyone, especially those who think they are full of artistic vision. The film itself is not for these people to watch.
"No one forces you to buy tickets to watch superhero movies. If you want to watch slow-paced movies that drive the story of the film with emotion, you can go to the art theater. Why bother to watch commercial movies and make trouble for yourself!"
The reply that follows can be said to be the best response to the kind of moviegoers. After all, even fools know what Hollywood superhero movies look like. They insist on using a literary and artistic mind and deliberately using an "artistic" perspective to specifically go to commercial theaters to examine them. It can only be said that these people have a serious tendency to be abused.
Moreover, this is just the view of a small group of people with a very limited number, and it does not affect the popularity of "Avengers".
The sky by the window turned slightly white, and David Ellison put on his clothes and walked out of the bedroom. Since the death of Van Diesel's car accident, his sleep quality has been extremely poor. The bald head always appears in his dreams, which disturbed him and could not sleep normally. Several times he was even awakened by nightmare.
But David Ellison never regretted it. Although Van Diesel's reputation after his death was slandered, the car accident attracted widespread attention, which was already very beneficial to "Fast and Furious 5".
Walking up to the spacious balcony, David Ellison looked in the direction of Malibu. He had never expected Duke Rosenberg as much as he is now!
Even if it is as powerful as Duke Rosenberg, if "Avengers" fails, it will be a huge loss.
Sitting at the table on the balcony, the butler brought in addition to delivering coffee and newspapers he must read every day.
David Ellison directly flipped into the entertainment version. Yesterday was the time when "Avengers" was fully launched in North American theaters, and now the box office on the first day should be released.
"Click!"
With a crisp sound, the white porcelain coffee cup in David Ellison's hand fell heavily on a tray of the same material. The tray was immediately split into pieces, and the brown liquid sputtered out and fell on the newspaper. Next to the stain was an extremely eye-catching number. This number was paired with a dot of coffee, like a golden Carrey's exaggerated expression, mocking some people's delusions.
"North America's new single-day box office record, the first film in history, North America's single-day box office exceeded 100 million US dollars, "Avengers" created! 166 million US dollars!"
This is the headline of the entertainment version, and this is a number that will inevitably be remembered in the history of film in North America and even the entire world!
After taking a few deep breaths, David Ellison, who was expressionless, calmed down. As the owner of a film company, he naturally knew the horror of this number.
This is not the final box office, not the first week's box office, just the North American box office of "Avengers" in one day!
Slowly closed the newspaper, but this number, like a curse, always lingers in David Ellison's mind, making him unable to have a moment of peace... (To be continued.)
Chapter completed!
