The two or three things that "Sugar Coated Trap" and Hugo Lancaster had to say were pushed to a whole new level after the box office battle ended in the first week of July.
Sidney'Bo' Luck abandoned Hugo and Brad Pitt and chose Tom Cruise. In the final analysis, he believed in Tom's box office appeal. Hugo, who knows "female" and "Yihai Xiongfeng", is in a warming reputation, and Brad, who has dedicated two amazing performances since his debut, is not inferior to Tom.
The "Sugar Coated Trap" won a box office of 44 million US dollars on the first five days of the year. The results were very good, and it proved that Tom was such a "great" position in the box office, but such results broke out in "Sleepless in Seattle". It is indeed eclipsing the "color" in front of us, not to mention that the eight consecutive championships of the same type of work "Yihai Xiongfeng" is almost an insurmountable gap, which also allows people to see the strong recovery of Hugo in the past year.
The "Los Angeles Times" ridiculed maliciously, "Sidney, do you regret it?"
If the box office battle in the first week of July still made people feel unsatisfied, then the box office battle in the second week of July was even more stimulating. What made people a little bit dumbfounded was the chick "Night Sleep in Seattle". The movie has become the most eye-catching uncertain factor in the box office battle this week, which is probably an unimaginable situation.
The new movies released in the second week of July seem to be a lot more lively. This Monday, there are three large-scale new movies in more than 1,500 theaters. Among them, Clint Eastwood and John Malkove Qi (co-starring "Line of Fire (dn.. of. became a hot'door' to win the championship. This work relies on Wolfgang, who won the Oscar nomination for Best Director for "Attack from the Sea (das. Directed by Peterson (ersen), with an investment of 40 million U.S. dollars and two thousand theaters, it is definitely the biggest focus of this week.
The other two films are "Golden Arm Boy (.hhevear and "Boss on Vacation 2 (., s.), and the scale of releases has reached 1,500, which also makes this week's box office competition pattern. Showing a trend of blooming hundreds of'flowers'.
Of course, the biggest competitor for winning the weekend box office this week is the "Sugar Coated Trap" and the "Line of Fire". As for what performance "Seattle Sleepless" can offer, and what impact will it have on this week's box office rankings, then Is the biggest uncertainty factor.
When the box office rankings came out on the weekend of the second week of July, almost all the media were unanimously exclaiming "accident", and the "Los Angeles Times" was titled "Shocking Reversal" followed by three exclamation marks. To express the turbulent'waves' in my heart, because "Sleepless in Seattle" once again created a miracle, turning the entire summer box office battle into a pot of paste
The third week of "Sleepless in Seattle", which was released for the third week, relied on the reputation of'color' and the charm of the two leading actors. With a 15% drop in consternation,'handed over' $20 million for three days on the weekend. Box office data, the cumulative box office reached 85 million U.S. dollars in one go
Such a strong performance made "Sleepless in Seattle" counterattack all the way, defeating the premiere of "Line of Fire", surpassing the "Jurassic Park" which has accumulated a gross box office of 240 million, and finally defeated Shanghai. Weekly champion "Sugar Coated Trap" won the North American Weekend Box Office Ranking Championship in the second week of July with an incredible performance
Winning the box office championship for a week in the summer file is something countless movies dream of, but in this fiercely competitive battlefield, this is a very difficult task. Meet the brave on a narrow road and win, and make a success in the summer file of masters. Blood path is not an easy task.
However, "Sleepless in Seattle" did it. This is the fourth time that Hugo has appeared in the summer competition. After two previous defeats, Hugo made people realize with a perfect answer. : The "ghost" haze of the Golden Raspberry Award has completely disappeared, and Hugo is using his own outstanding performance to become a strong one among the top ranks.
It's even more difficult to hit the box office champion in the third week of the release. This is not only a victory for "Sleepless in Seattle", but also the history of the chick film it represents. Sex' breakthrough
Everyone knows that "Sleepless in Seattle" is a dark horse, but no one can predict that the dark horse will actually sprint to the championship position, which not only disturbs a pool of water, but also makes the North American rankings show in the second week of July. A situation of chaos
Behind "Sleepless in Seattle", the "Sugar Coated Trap" which had a drop of nearly 30% received a weekend box office of $17 million, ranking second with "Sleepless in Seattle". Zhou's hand was defeated. In fact, the nearly 30% drop is a very'splendid' data performance for the "sugar-coated trap", but this time it encountered the "Sleepless in Seattle" and "Sugar-coated Trap" performance. I can only bitterly'hand over' the title of the champion who only occupied one week.
Perhaps at this moment, Sidney is really thinking about "If Hugo was used in the original role..." this hypothetical 'sexual' problem.
"Jurassic Park" continued the strong performance of the previous four weeks. With a slight advantage of 100,000 US dollars, it suppressed the "Line of Fire" and occupied the third place. The "Line of Fire" that premiered this week can only regretfully occupy the position of the third place. .
The huge lineup and high investment of "Line of Fire" turned out to be a dumb shot, which really made the publisher Columbia Pictures very helpless. What's more intriguing is that Columbia Pictures was not optimistic about "Sleepless in Seattle" at first, and finally it was "handed over" to its subsidiary Samsung Pictures to be responsible for the production. Columbia Pictures did not pay much attention to it at the release stage; but now, Columbia The "Line of Fire", which the film industry devoted all its efforts to propaganda, was defeated by the "Sleepless in Seattle", which was released into the third week of the theater, and was vulnerable.
The other two new films did not perform well. "Golden Arm Boy" took fifth place, while "Boss on Vacation 2" only ranked ninth.
Undoubtedly, in the second week of July, everyone became a foil for "Sleepless in Seattle", witnessing the powerful counterattack of this shiny black horse.
At this time, everyone knows that it's no longer a problem for "Sleepless in Seattle" to break 100 million box office at the box office, but the question is, where will the final box office data of this chick movie stand, and whether it can surpass the current top box office record holder for romantic comedies." The high record of 178 million U.S. dollars created in 192 by "Beautiful Lady in Wind and Moon"?
In the third week of July, although there are two new movies "'Witch's Crazy (. and "Why Whale Breaks Through the Sky", it is obvious that these two works are difficult to make an impact on the box office champion. The final result depends on the performance of the top four works in the rankings last week.
Faced with a relatively flattening competition situation this week, "Night Sleep in Seattle"'handed over' a 25% drop, which was the highest data in the previous four weeks; the performance of "Sugar Coated Trap" recovered, 100% The decline of No. 26 is very "great"; "FireWire" finally showed its due courage at this time. The 14% decline is the lowest among the top ten; the momentum of "Jurassic" is unabated. "Park" then'handed in' the answer sheet with a 29% drop.
As a result, the box office rankings for the third week of July are very clear. "Seattle Sleepless" relied on its box office advantages and steady declines to regain the top spot in the North American weekend box office rankings. "Sugar Coated Trap" ranked first for two consecutive weeks. The runner-up, "Line of Fire" took the third place, and "Jurassic Park" slipped to the third place.
However, the gap between the top four works this week is very small. The advantage of "Night Sleep in Seattle" is only $1.7 million; the advantage of "Sugar Coated Trap" ahead of "Sniper" is only 30. Ten thousand U.S. dollars.
It can be seen from this that "Seattle Sleepless" is still slightly inferior in its ability to adapt during the summer vacation. Although it relies on its excellent reputation to stabilize the box office decline at a very outstanding position, it is compared to For works like "Jurassic Park", the box office driving force seems very weak.
Of course, the biggest happy event this week came from "Sleepless in Seattle". The cumulative box office of this work broke through 100 million U.S. dollars four weeks after its release. There is still a long way to go, but the box office in the same period has far surpassed the "Beautiful Girl in Wind and Moon". The main reason why the "Pretty Girl in Wind and Moon" was able to obtain the ultra-high data of 178 million US dollars that year was that the long-term sales ~www.mtlnovel.com~ has always maintained a stable box office decline, which created a miracle. So, can "Sleepless in Seattle" replicate this miracle?
Entering the fourth week of July, the inadequacy of love movies during the summer vacation finally revealed its clues. "Night Sleep in Seattle" quickly slipped out of position, and the 22% drop made its weekend box office come to a close. At US$1.5 million, it not only lags behind this week's new work Jenny Jackson (jm.., but also lags behind the follow-up box office performance of "Line of Fire", which only won the third place on this week's list. Ranking.
But it is worth mentioning that the "Sugar Coated Trap" was once again overwhelmed by the "Seattle Sleepless" and fell behind the third place.
Although it slipped from the championship to the third place, "Sleepless in Seattle" won an incredible two consecutive championships in the summer file. It is still the biggest surprise since the summer file this year, and the cumulative box office of this chick movie has reached five weeks after its release. One hundred and twenty million U.S. dollars. From the decline in the previous five weeks, it can be seen that the long-term selling ability of this film is particularly'sexy.' A goal achieved.
In an instant, the whole of North America boiled over. Is "Seattle Sleepless" really going to work a miracle? Just like the miracle created by the "Beautiful Lady in Wind and Moon".
