"Minions" is coming with great momentum. It opened in more than 4,200 theaters in North America at the same time. It has received a lot of praise in the early stage, and its freshness and popcorn index are not low.
"If we can really break the record by running publicity, I'm afraid those directors and starring actors will become trapeze artists. It still depends on the quality. We have controlled the decline very well. I hope we can still reach 200 million by the weekend!"
This term first appeared from the release of Lin Han's "Jaws", Spielberg's famous film. Since 1975, major Hollywood studios have paid special attention to the film schedules in June, July and August.
Before the movie was released, no Galaxy Pictures employees, including Lin Han, had ever thought that "The Matrix 2" could come close to the box office record. This was a bit incredible.
Therefore, there are many blockbusters taking turns every week. This is the world of commercial movies and it is the time when they win the most box office, so the competition is particularly fierce.
"It would have been better if it had been a day earlier." Lin Han spread his hands and said helplessly, "They all got on the plane to Los Angeles yesterday to attend the Teen Choice Awards held there. Our last movie "The Matrix" won the Quite a few nominations.”
It's like "The Matrix 2", "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", and "Tarzan" are all three heavyweight blockbusters released together, and "Escape" has been added to the Chinese market.
Movie theaters are very realistic. Movies that cannot help them make money will definitely have fewer and fewer movies scheduled.
Li Wenyuan seemed to have thought of something, "By the way, what are Actor Xu and the others doing now? My nephew particularly likes Neo and Agent Smith. He knows about your relationship with me and keeps asking me to find them on WeChat every day. I want a signature."
This "The Suicide Squad" is full of dark horse atmosphere!
Li Wenyuan asked in surprise. As a bystander, he was very nervous and couldn't wait for "The Matrix 2" to sweep through again!
So many blockbusters are actually a last resort. If "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" is not scheduled to premiere on June 9, moving it forward or postponed a schedule will collide with other blockbusters.
"What's there to worry about? It's already more than 2 billion now, and the task has already been exceeded."
Affected by the release of new movies, "The Matrix 2" originally still had 67% of the film schedule on Thursday, but by Friday it dropped sharply to 34%, but it still occupied the first place!
One is a very popular second weekend, and the other is a fierce first weekend. Several movies will definitely fight to the death in the movie market!
"They will eventually return to China. If they missed it this time, they still have a chance."
Another movie that has been launched on a large scale is Matt Damon's "The Bourne Supremacy". The Bourne Supremacy series tells the story of the legendary CIA agent Jason Bourne. The first five works are all very popular. classic work.
The most anticipated one is the animated masterpiece "Minions". This movie is a spin-off of the "Despicable Me" series of movies. The previous movies have been quite good at the box office and reputation.
Even so, under the operation of China Film Group, it only received 21% of the film schedule. The entire market may not be so cold about this kind of action spy movie.
Last week, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", "Escape", and "Tarzan" had to take a back seat, with only single-digit film schedules. Blockbusters of this level might become a ten-day trip to the theater!
"It is precisely because the early performance is so good that the box office has already reached such a high level in just seven days. It is very close to breaking the record of 3.3 billion for "Mermaid". If you go to a few more promotional stops, it might be broken."
The mainland film market has now formed a three-legged situation. "The Matrix 2", which broke the box office record last week, is competing with "Minions" and "The Bourne Supremacy".
…
"The Bourne Supremacy" has a certain place in the hearts of veteran movie fans. The two agents Jason Bourne and Ethan Hunt can be said to be the most familiar old friends in the hearts of Chinese people. If you also include James Bond 007 Germany, then these three agents are the Golden Three Musketeers!
Melissa McCarthy has become very popular in recent years. Almost every drama she plays can earn nearly 100 million in North American box office. She is also ranked in the top three of Forbes actress list.
Currently, 7 of the top 20 days in the single-day box office list belong to "The Matrix 2", but Lin Han is still a little dissatisfied. It would be better if there were 10 days!
If there are 200 million per day on weekends, it will really not be far from the box office record.
Professional movie magazine "Empire" predicts that "Minions" will gross $100 million at the box office this weekend, knocking "The Matrix 2" from the top spot on the weekend box office list.
Anyway, it’s hard to find a weekend without competitive pressure!
Lin Han also felt a little emotional. Now that "The Matrix 2" is affected by the release of new movies, the number of movies scheduled has dropped by half. However, more people will start their holidays on Friday, and the attendance rate will definitely be much higher than on weekdays.
Another funny comedy sci-fi movie "The Suicide Squad" entangled a series of female comedy stars, led by Melissa McCarthy, the current top comedy star in North America, and told how a small team of four women subdue ghosts. Ghost stories.
However, in the Chinese market, "The Expendables" has not passed the review, so "The Matrix 2" is a little relieved, it only has to deal with the other two movies!
The Minions who act cheap and cute are extremely popular, and their combat effectiveness is undoubted. The "Minions" released simultaneously around the world will fully snipe and intercept "The Matrix 2"!
A fantastic start, a healthy trend, everything seems to be paving the way.
This legendary return is sure to ignite the big screen!
The summer season has always been a battleground for military strategists, and it is also the busiest time of the year. It refers to the summer practice from June 1st to August 31st every year. The main audience is students aged 4-24.
"Aren't you worried about your movie's box office at all?"
Lin Han was participating in a science fiction literature promotion event with him at the moment. Because it was right in front of his home, Lin Han, who was too lazy to be a panda, dragged his body out.
The viral marketing of "Minions" has taken off. It can be seen in every McDonald's across the country. In addition, the previous series of movies have made a lot of RMB. This time it got 27%. The amount of slices arranged.
Lin Han laughed twice, "But as for the autographed photos, we have a lot of them in stock here, and they are all used to promote the movie. I will ask Yan Hong to deliver them to your house another day. The single posters and group posters will be given to your nephew. Let him help us promote it among our classmates!"
On June 16, which is this Friday, the global market will usher in a new batch of movies to be released, and this batch of movies includes many of the best-selling movies of the year.
Compared with other schedules, the summer schedule has the densest crowds of moviegoers, the highest box office revenue, and the longest duration!
After all, its attendance rate has been tested in practice, and you won’t lose money by excluding it anyway.
