Chapter 1118： Born in time
When "Twilight" hit the box office last year, the industry had certain expectations for "The Hunger Games", not only because it came from the same author, but also because it was on the New York Times bestseller list. For a long time.
The new era also needs movies and characters that fit this era.
Female roles in this era also need to conform to the trend of social development.
Katniss is such a movie role born in time.
For a long time, women often have to make a trade-off between success and likability. Even in a society that advertises freedom and fairness like North America, the media and the public do not like women who boast about their high accomplishments.
This situation has changed in recent years. Hollywood has begun to appear in some female self-improvement films, in which the heroine setting is no longer a cheerful stupid sister or a pure vase.
In "The Hunger Games", Gal Gadot was built as a strong and independent character who does not rely on men. She has a brave heart that is completely different from traditional female characters. She also has a fitness player trained for long-term hunting. , So she not only participated in this cruel game on behalf of her sister, but also escaped with a bow and arrow and a special skill.
Just as Ronan met Lindsay Bill’s interview questions for the first time, this character from Lindsay Bill does not need a man to save, but will save men and the world.
In the plot of the film, despite the help of male characters, Katniss himself is the key. With tenacious will and unyielding spirit, he not only destroys the trap designed by his opponent, but also saves a series of supporting actor and promotes feminism. The power is vividly displayed.
More importantly, she became the spokesperson of class resistance in this world, exuding a spirit of resistance and freedom.
Katniss not only struggled all the way, showing off his own independent and powerful spiritual characteristics, but also instigated the freedom of the whole people with the blood of salute at the critical moment.
The new era needs new roles, and the vigorous development of the feminist movement also needs new spokespersons.
Standing under the banner of freedom, Katniss shone with extraordinary light.
Although the monkeys in animals are more free than these Americans living under the "Prism Gate", it does not prevent them from enjoying the freedom in movies.
Like "Twilight", "The Hunger Games" has a large audience among teenagers, and compared to the pure Mary Su, this big heroine film that combines science fiction and action drama has a wider audience.
Although there are strong competitors such as "Thunder Dogs", "Australia" and "Very Human Trafficker 3" in the same period, the first two are also first-line commercial productions with an investment of 100 million US dollars +, but "The Hunger Games" North America On the first day of the painting, everyone in the industry was stunned.
This dystopian movie of youth idols and sci-fi action in addition to female protagonists, in one day on Friday, in 4122 theaters, got 67.26 million US dollars in box office.
The popularity of "The Hunger Games" surpassed Relativity Entertainment's most optimistic estimate.
Ronan knew that this film had achieved great success and became the representative work of the big cousin in business, but he did not expect it to be such a powerful box office bomb.
Because of the special experience, in Ronan's eyes, "The Hunger Games" is not as exciting as "Battle Royale", but it has caught the hearts of North American audiences.
Even if "The Hunger Games" does not have the high ticket price bonus of 3D movies, and only the 2D version is shown, it can't stop the huge success of the movie.
This also set a single-day box office record in the North American film market in November. Even the "Harry Potter" series did not get a single-day box office of 60 million US dollars in November.
Other movies released during the same period, after the first day of screening, unfortunately became the backdrop for the success of The Hunger Games.
The first is "Very Human Trafficker 3", a relatively popular action film series in the international market. Even if there is a flourishing beauty, the North American response has always been mediocre.
The third sequel to North America only received $3.32 million on its first day.
Then in "Australia" by 20th Century Fox, Nicole Kidman once again exposed the essence of box office poison.
Last year, the production cost of "Golden Compass" in which she played the leading role was as high as 180 million US dollars, but the final box office in North America was only 70 million US dollars.
The failure of this film also made New Line Pictures’ plan to create a new magic trilogy after the "Lord of the Rings" series vanished, and Warner Bros., who controlled the purchase of New Line Pictures, was extremely dissatisfied with such a huge loss. Directly ousting Robert Shay from office, New Line Pictures has since lost its independence and become a subsidiary wholly controlled by Warner Bros.
Nicole Kidman's commercial films after winning the Oscar for Best Actress, one after another, are on the street. No one knows what the 20th Century Fox thinks. In such a super giant, invited She as the heroine.
Perhaps the Australian version of Gone with the Wind needs an Australian actress.
Having said that, Hollywood has not been able to hold up a commercial production of Australian actress at all, and another well-known Cate Blanchett has never carried a major commercial movie.
"Australia" was even worse than "Golden Compass". The first day it was released in North America, it only received $2.26 million.
Although it is only the first day of the show, this figure has fully proved that "Australia" has no salvation value.
From "A Fairy Wife", to "The Golden Compass", and then to "Australia", Nicole Kidman performed the Oscar Queen's curse almost perfectly, and achieved three consecutive hits in commercial films.
Generally women are like this, even if they are first-line women, their careers are basically going to end, just like Halle Berry.
But Nicole Kidman is not ordinary and will be very active in the future. Don't worry about the problem of exposure, anyway, you can rely on the presence of whip corpses.
As long as Tom Cruise is still popular, Nicole Kidman is still a very active star in Hollywood, and there will be no shortage of attention.
In contrast, Walt Disney's "Thunder Dogs" is the best box office record among the three competing films of "The Hunger Games", with a gross of $7.03 million on its first day of release, ranking second on Friday's single-day box office chart.
The ranking is good, but the box office numbers are not ideal.
Walt Disney invested 150 million US dollars on the production of "Thunder Dogs" alone. It wants to revive the brilliance of Disney Animation Studios, so that Disney Animation can truly realize the transformation of computer animation.
But the first part of the plan fell into the pit, and it was still difficult to climb out.
The most capable and traditional animation production team of Disney Animation Studios has been transferred to Relativity Entertainment for various reasons such as the previous civil strife and neglect of Disney and established a new Princess Animation Studio.
Today's Disney animation wants to re-emerge, the difficulty is several times or even more than ten times.
Relativity entertainment has taken the path of Disney. Disney does not say that there is no way to go, but it can only go on other roads, but other roads are full of hardships.
"The Hunger Games" is a big box office, and its reputation is better than that of "Twilight", which is also a teenage movie.
The film was naturally highly rated by the audience with fans as the mainstream group, and it was also given an A rating. Among them, 16-year-old teenagers even gave A+; in the eyes of film critics, Rotten Tomatoes had a percentage. The freshness of 85 and the MetaCritic media review of 72 points also prove that positive reviews are the majority.
Facts have also proved that whether a film will get a good reputation is sometimes not directly related to the quality of the film.
Many older film practitioners can't understand why such a film with a plot, thought, structure, and even an actor's performance is not so brilliant, why can it get such a high box office?
Perhaps, the survey data of Embassy Pictures can explain the problem. In the first day of "The Hunger Games" in North America, women accounted for nearly 70%.
Just like the "Twilight" series, whether it is the script, film production, or promotion, the positioning of "The Hunger Games" is clear enough to accurately grasp the mainstream tastes of the target audience, and this part of the audience is in the movie market. Occupies the majority position, enough to guarantee the audience base of "The Hunger Games".
"The Hunger Games" has revealed the characteristics of fan movies, and inevitably brought the defects of fan movies.
On Saturday, the film’s single-day box office began to decline, and even fell by more than 20%, with 50.39 million US dollars in that day.
Even so, "The Hunger Games" still created the November opening record of North American film history!
Over the three days of the weekend, the film was in 4122 theaters, with a revenue of $152.54 million, and it came to the top of the North American box office rankings with a crushing attitude!
Compared to cost, it is said to be a box office explosion.
Other films of the same period unfortunately became victims.
"Very Human Trafficker 3" is not bad in overseas films in North America, and the box office of 9.03 million US dollars is not low.
"War Dogs of Thunder" can't support Walt Disney's plan to revive Disney animation, and only received $25.12 million in the first weekend and three days.
"Australia" is the most miserable, only 10.98 million US dollars in the opening weekend, compared with 130 million US dollars in production costs ~ www.novelhall.com ~ 20th Century Fox is another big hit.
Nicole Kidman is under the Oscar curse, and Hugh Jackman seems to be doomed to leave Wolverine and rush on the street.
Behind the success of "The Hunger Games" is the pain and sorrow of Fox's failure in the 20th century.
Counting a few dragon balls, from last summer to now, 20th Century Fox has had five first-line major productions.
Even the big companies in Hollywood started vomiting blood in pain.
The success of "The Hunger Games" had a huge impact.
The major entertainment media have used "unbelievable" and "box office miracle" to describe this film. Even if Relativity Entertainment does not need to do more work, they are willing to use large articles on the front page to describe this incredible film. Youth Videos
And the flexible-minded filmmakers gradually feel that the age of youth films is coming.
