Chapter 706： Give some strength
After the premiere, "Chainsaw 2", as the only movie of Relativity Entertainment during the Halloween schedule, began to be fully released in North America. The scale of the opening reached 3580 theaters that are rare in R-rated horror films.
"The King of Soul Song", which opened paintings at the same weekend and produced and released by Universal Pictures, only opened in 2006.
In terms of the premiere scale alone, the gap between the two films is very large.
This is also determined by the type of film. One is a sequel to a big-selling horror film that fits the atmosphere of the weekend before Halloween, and the other is a biographical film of a black singer.
Ronan also wondered why Universal Pictures put this film on the weekend before Halloween.
Probably this weekend before Halloween this year, the competition is not fierce.
Except for hundreds of small-scale horror films, the only large-scale films to be drawn this weekend are "Chain Saw 2" and "The King of Soul Singer".
Including "The Grudge" which premiered last week, the competition is not particularly fierce.
But the Halloween schedule is obviously a horror movie.
On the first day of its release, "Chain Saw 2" became the North American box office champion on Friday, earning $13.3 million in a single day.
"The Grudge" came in second with a box office of 7.72 million US dollars.
"The King of Soul Singer" can only be ranked third, with a revenue of 6.61 million US dollars on the first day of the show.
In terms of word-of-mouth, "The King of Soul Singer" can only be described as a burst of praise, and the media and film critics are very applauded.
Although this era has not yet reached a position where black films cannot be criticized casually, no one wants to provoke a special group in Hollywood.
Even if I like to pick the bones in the egg and the bitter professional film critics, I don't want to ask for trouble on certain things.
Therefore, the Rotten Tomatoes Index of "The King of Soul Song" is as high as 89%.
In contrast, "Chain Saw 2" is a tragedy. The freshness of rotten tomatoes is only 37%.
The score of 7.3 on ImDB is not bad. Horror movie fans are still waiting to see this film.
The ImDB7.7 rating of "The King of Soul Singer" is not as exaggerated as Rotten Tomatoes.
The reputation of the audience can better represent the market response of the film. No one is stupid enough to judge the box office of a film by the Rotten Tomatoes Index, just like no film company would foolishly ask film critics about the box office trend.
As the number of people watching the film increased, "Chain Saw 2" as expected, once again sparked the debate about "jigsaw".
It's not just movie fans, even the media have joined in.
"Hollywood Reporter" believes that "Chain Saw 2" is a very **** and brutal movie, it is more extreme than "Chain Saw 1". A morbid and crazy murderer, all kinds of weird and terrifying ways of killing, a meaningful central theme, made this movie.
It refers to the "jigsaw" as a perverted murderer.
"Entertainment Weekly" commented that, "Chain Saw 2" not only has a meticulous layout and detailed plot, but also hides the exposure of the good and evil of human nature and the inquiries about the philosophy of life behind the blood.
Movie fans are also divided into two parts, using ImDB and Netflix to share two websites as carriers, arguing like crazy, constantly emphasizing their own views.
Of course no one can convince anyone in the end.
Keyboard Man is perhaps the most difficult group of people in the world to convince.
Never try to convince a keyboard man.
"Chain Saw 2" ignored the almost complete rotten index of Rotten Tomatoes and maintained a very stable box office trend. On the second day of its release, it received another 14.28 million US dollars on Saturday and continued to lead the North American box office list.
"The King of Soul Singer" is still suppressed by "The Grudge" and can only stay in third place.
Ronan took the time to watch this "The King of Soul Song" with Will Smith and some public relations staff.
Frankly speaking, from his perspective, Jamie Fox’s performance is not much better than Will Smith’s "When Happiness Knocks on the Door", it can be said to be on the same level.
Probably, Jamie Fox is playing a blind singer, which is more in line with Oscar's aesthetic standards of the old, the weak, the sick, and the neurosis.
Will Smith is a normal person after all.
Of course, this is more of Ronan's subjective feelings.
If he is friends with Will Smith, or an investor in "When Happiness Knocks," he will subconsciously favor Will Smith.
"What do you think, Will?" Ronan asked Will Smith in the car back.
After being silent for a while, Will Smith said slowly: "Very vivid performance, I feel that Jamie Fox is completely immersed in Ray's world."
Ronan said softly: "Jamie Fox did a good job. He truly reproduced the artist's life and faithfully recorded his flashes and sufferings." He said, "But you are in "When happiness comes knocking". The performance in China is not bad either."
Will Smith smiled, "You have faith in me."
Ronan said lightly: "Because it is not only the performance that determines the Oscar performance award."
Will Smith is determined: "Don't worry, I will never give up until the final results are announced."
Ronan said to Connie on the co-pilot: "Notify our Chong Ao team and start operations as planned."
On the third day of the release of "The King of Soulsong", there were a lot of reports about Jamie Fox in the media, focusing on the resume of Jamie Fox, in which the identity of the comedian was the top priority.
Whether in the past or now, Jamie Fox has appeared in a lot of comedy movies.
Because of this, these reports did not attract the attention of Jamie Fox and Universal Pictures.
Maybe Universal Pictures and Jamie Fox have made plans to hit the Oscars, but they don't have the momentum and ideas to win.
These resumes about Jamie Fox are only telling the truth, not making rumors, so they did not arouse their vigilance.
But related reports inevitably fall into the eyes of many industry insiders who are used to entertainment news.
It seems useless now. When they make a choice in the future, they will probably think like this: Jamie Fox was originally a comedian just like Will Smith.
Wait until the awards season, the Embassy Pictures will launch media resources to remind many members of the Academy again.
Will Smith is so famous that everyone knows his past resumes. The resumes of acting in a large number of commercial comedies are hard to forget.
Ronan just tried to pull Jamie Fox and Will Smith to the same starting line.
Since the college judges, especially the old men, don’t want to see comedians, let’s not wait to see them together.
This alone is obviously not enough. In order to cooperate, Embassy Pictures is also mobilizing resources to further increase reports on unfair treatment of blacks.
Ronan also hopes that Uncle Black and conservative whites can give some strength. These guys create racial incidents all the year round, and hurriedly make a big noise.
Black uncles and Latinos who are rioting in Los Angeles from time to time, don’t be so peaceful, okay.
There are also white American policemen who are always drawing their guns. Where did your guns go?
Ronan will not take the initiative to create anything in order to avoid possible trouble in the future, but if something really happens, he will surely push it quietly.
In a free and democratic place like the United States, don’t mess around with things, so I am ashamed to say that I am a free and democratic country?
Maybe Jamie Fox will have an advantage. The box office of "The King of Soul Song" will be lower than that of "When Happiness Knocks", which is more high-end and artistic.
Ronan can't let "When Happiness Knock on the Door" box office failure?
In the first week of its release, "The King of Souls" won $1,83 million in the box office of 2006 theaters in North America, ranking third in the North American box office chart.
The first one was "The Grudge", which was released this weekend, and received another $21.81 million in three days.
This remake of the horror movie by Sony Columbia Pictures only invested 10 million US dollars in production costs, and it earned 70.68 million US dollars in box office in ten days.
The Japanese version of the original horror film only received $320,000 in North America, but the remake has become a typical example of a small-scale horror film.
It can only be said that the cultural market for movies is really very different. North America is definitely the largest film and television media insulator in the world.
Foreign movies, even if they are many classic movies that have been proven countless, are difficult to succeed in the North American market.
"Chain Saw 2" became the biggest winner in the North American movie market during the Halloween period. It collected 39.71 million U.S. dollars in three days during the opening weekend and topped the North American box office chart.
This result is comparable to the opening result of "The Grudge of the US" last weekend, and the North American box office results are very hopeful to exceed the $100 million mark.
The most important thing is that the cost of this system is very low. The total investment of 10 million US dollars can bring more than ten times the income.
"Chain Saw 3" is naturally on the production schedule of Shahai Entertainment However, the production budget also has to skyrocket, and the production budget of Shahai Entertainment is 10 million US dollars.
Most of the increased budget is used to pay for Wen Ziren and Tobin Bell and other creative staff.
Even if they signed a long-term contract with Shahai Entertainment, the remuneration must conform to the most basic market conditions, and the rise is inevitable.
No one can let Wen Ziren continue to get the low pay of the first film.
The trend of "Chain Saw 3" is very stable. After the weekend after Halloween, the box office declined normally, with a drop of less than 50%. The next weekend box office of 20.1 million US dollars is enough to ensure that this film is on the box office list Second seat.
"National Treasure", produced by Touchstone Pictures and released by Disney Pictures, was released this weekend with a box office of 35.15 million U.S. dollars and landed first in the North American box office list.
Jerry Bruckheimer, after experiencing the fiasco of "King Arthur", is also proving to all Hollywood and North American movie fans that he is not out of date.
The actor of this film is Nicholas Cage, and "National Treasure" seems to be the last glory of Nicholas Cage.
Originally, this schedule did not belong to "National Treasure", but was the premiere schedule of "The Incredibles" by Pixar Studios, but Pixar did not complete the animated feature film due to technical reasons, and the distributor Disney could only temporarily adjust it.
"The King of Soul Song", which opened paintings at the same weekend and produced and released by Universal Pictures, only opened in 2006.
