Chapter 674： 2 box office records
Katniss has a brave heart and a pair of fitness players trained in hunting for a long time, so she not only participated in this cruel game on behalf of her sister, but also escaped from birth with a bow and arrow and a special skill.
On the way to escape, Katniss had the courage and strategy, not only destroyed the trap designed by the opponent, but also saved Pitta by the way, and finally helped the contestant played by Ryan escape as soon as possible.
Wisdom and bravery plus some luck, the winning girl not only saved her life, fame and fortune, but more importantly, she became the spokesperson of the world class resistance, exuding a spirit of resistance and freedom.
Perhaps Katniss does not have the powerful body of Princess Diana, nor the prominent family background of Laura, nor the blood of Selena, but she can be said to be the master of all self-improving female characters after the new millennium, and it is also a film. The best representative of the'new feminism' in China.
In "The Hunger Games", Katniss not only struggled all the way to show off his strong spiritual qualities, but also instigated the class emotions of the whole people with the blood of salute at the critical moment.
'Old Feminism' can no longer cover the re-expression and re-evolution of today's'feminism' in movies. It can be said that today's'feminism' is no longer a struggle for power in a mainstream patriarchal society. Symbols turned into a new evolutionary theory in which women began to recognize themselves, identify themselves, and reconcile themselves.
As a result, more and more new female characters in film and television works are advancing by leaps and bounds on a more self-aware, stronger, and more fearless level. While tearing off the gentle outer packaging that needs men’s protection and perfection, they faded away for * *The main theme of freedom struggle for independence and love.
The voice of this generation of feminism is—not only to save yourself, but also to save the country, others, and the world. Life is not just about finding a reliable job, marrying a prince charming, or turning an ugly duckling into a bride. It is recognized by the mainstream, but more shows a larger-scale, high-standard and deep concept to understand the world, recognize oneself and examine the heart, which is called a new kind of feminism.
These women on the big screen may still be beautiful, sexy, youthful and beautiful, but they are no longer gentle and submissive to men. They can exude malice and gloom, they can be masculine and tough, they can believe and act as dreams, they are like men. The same can be desperate, playful layout, shed blood and sweat, and even start a war or create a world.
The role of Katniss caters to this trend.
When the subtitles fell, Taylor's theme song "Safe and Safe" sounded. Although she only played a passerby character who didn't even have a line in the movie, her current momentum of development can also attract many teenagers into the theater.
The main audience of this film is teenagers and female audiences.
Such youth films are obviously not pleasing to the critics. After the premiere, critics successively published their opinions on the film in the online column.
"The Hunger Games presents vulgar scenes and lack of real emotions. Although Natalie Portman's character is full of power, she can't hide her fragility in performance. The ending of the film is roundabout, confusing, and not exciting. ——I can't speak of being outstanding."
As a veteran film critic, David Denby will certainly not like such a commercial film that is full of youthfulness. He has shown a poor three-pointer for "The Hunger Games."
The comments of another well-known veteran film critic were not much better. Roger Albert updated the film review almost immediately after the premiere.
""The Hunger Games" has no shortage of wonderful moments, but as far as the whole film is concerned, the mediocrity of the actors and the plot is also obvious. Although Natalie Portman's role is radiant and has the temperament of a winner, The performances of other actors including Ryan Jenkins, but I don’t know the so-called, everything is serving the heroine, and they want to do something about it, and finally become inexplicable."
He was a little better than David Denby and gave the film four points.
Compared with the old film critics, the younger female film critics are full of good feelings about the film. They applauded the film in the newspapers the next day.
"Just like the performance in the famous "Killer Leon", Natalie Portman made this futuristic and politicized version of "The Most Dangerous Game" full of weight, and the director Sophia Coppola has also successfully put most important parts of the novel on the screen. These are enough to satisfy young audiences in the United States!"
-"New York Times" Manola Daguis.
"There is a strong appreciation, and Natalie Portman's performance as the protagonist is excellent and convincing. This is a powerful, glorious and firm interpretation of the original work. The wonderful novel adaptation of the film makes the same type of Movies are relatively inferior."
——"Washington Post" Ann Hodina
Disney did not relax due to the release of the film. Massive publicity activities are still going on. In Disney parks around the world, a Hunger Games event with the theme of "return alive" has been launched. Although this event will not die, it is It is also stimulating enough.
Although it is certainly incomparable with the "Harry Potter" series, Disney has also invested sufficient resources in this series, striving to make it another key profitable project.
In fact, the words of some Hollywood industry insiders are the best evaluation of this film-it is in line with the tastes of current teenagers and female audiences, and it also has a certain meaning.
For such a movie, these are enough.
The performance of "The Hunger Games" on the first weekend can only be described as incredible.
The film opened in 4187 theaters in North America, and it robbed the box office of $67.26 million in just one day on Friday. This achievement broke through the single-day record of $51.53 million in "Star Wars Prequel 3: Revenge of the Sith" , "The Hunger Games" became the new North American single-day box office record holder.
Although due to the excellent pre-sales, the outside world’s box office expectations for this film are high enough, but it turns out that their expectations are too conservative, and even some older film and television industry practitioners do not understand the plot and thought of such a film. Why can a movie that doesn't have much brilliance in terms of structure, structure, or even actors' performances, can get such a high box office?
However, the investigation report sent by Ryan's investigation company explains this to a certain extent.
Among the audience who entered the theater to watch "The Hunger Games" on the first day, the proportion of audiences under the age of 30 was as high as 91%, and the proportion of female audiences exceeded 60%!
In fact, it’s very simple to say. In addition to excellent publicity and marketing work, the film’s positioning is clear and accurately grasps the mainstream tastes of the target audience, and this part of the audience occupies the majority of the position in the film market, enough to guarantee "The Hunger Games" Audience base.
Of course, it is impossible for the film to maintain such a high box office, and a decline is inevitable.
On Saturday, the box office fell 25% to a total of 50.39 million U.S. dollars, and on Sunday it fell to 34.87 million U.S. dollars.
Although the downward trend is unusually obvious, "The Hunger Games" once again set a North American box office record, easily surpassing the 136 million of "Star Wars Prequel 3: Revenge of the Sith" with a first-week score of $152.53 million. Box office record in the first week of US$10,000 in North America.
The major entertainment media have used "unbelievable" and "box office miracle" to describe this film. Even if Disney does not need to do more work, they are willing to use large articles on the front page to describe this incredible youth. film.
And the flexible-minded filmmakers gradually feel that the age of youth films is about to come.
As for whether this era has really come, just look at the follow-up performance of The Hunger Games.
Monday was 10.82 million U.S. dollars, Tuesday was 10.34 million U.S. dollars, Wednesday was 8.5 million U.S. dollars... Before Friday, another North American box office rankings began to count the weekend when the weekend was approaching, and "The Hunger Games" had already snatched 189.93 million from North America. US dollars.
This film is like all major productions released by Disney in recent years. Even if it is not released globally, it will at least be released simultaneously among five friends in the English-speaking area.
These areas are also where Ryan has the greatest influence. At the same time, the "Hunger Games" novels that bear his name are also local hot books, and the film's box office is also excellent.
The UK's box office in the first week reached 35.33 million U.S. dollars; in Australia, it successfully got an eight-figure figure, 14.53 million U.S. dollars is enough to make Disney laugh; even in New Zealand, due to the lack of strong competitors, the first week's box office also had 4.62 million U.S. dollars.
In addition, France, Germany, Italy, Spain in the European mainland, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan in the Far East are also within the scope of simultaneous release.
Of course The performance of the film in these non-English-speaking areas is much worse, and the box office is far from outstanding. Many local audiences think that they don’t know the so-called, and even many overseas media are talking about why such a film. Can weird movies sell well in North America?
The film is deeply influenced by the language, culture and social environment of the region. A film that performs well in some regions, if you change a region, you may encounter the same situation as "The Hunger Games". This is still the most popular Hollywood in the world. It is almost impossible for a film produced to become a worldwide best-selling culture if it is changed to a film made in another country.
A high degree of industrialization and commercialization determines Hollywood's dominant position.
By Friday of the second week, before the release of DreamWorks’ "Escape from the Clone Island", "The Hunger Games" had taken away US$258.56 million from the world. Especially the film’s performance in the North American market was almost the year. The perfect box office champion.
Maybe DreamWorks's "Escape from the Island", with a total investment of more than 200 million US dollars, will squeeze the box office space of this film?
This is the thought of some people who are eager for Ryan and Disney to be unlucky. r1152()
