Saturday.
"...It came out! Ahhh! 100 million! It really broke 100 million! God, God, this is happening! This is really happening!"
"What? Friday box office? Young master's Friday box office?"
"One hundred million! Jesus Christ!"
"Wait, how much is it? What is the exact number? Where's the news? Is it true?"
"Twitter is out, and Twitter is out with official news, 100 million! 104 million!"
"Ah!"
The hustle and bustle of shouts spread in the waiting hall of the Royal Cinema in West Hollywood in Los Angeles, and then spread in a mighty way among the crowd. The heat wave eclipsed the bright June sun outside.
From Friday to Saturday, the movie-watching boom has not weakened significantly, but more audiences can be seen in the bustling streets of major city centers.
But the difference is that Friday's audience is obviously dominated by young people, in other words, students who don't need to "work", like Renly or follow "Jurassic World" because of the Twitter frenzy Young netizens occupy most of them - after all, Don Quixote is not the main body of students.
The audience on Saturday was dominated by the loyal fans of Don Quixote and "Jurassic Park", and the number of middle-aged and young office workers increased significantly. This is the real main force of the movie, whether there is Twitter or not Frenzy, and they'll all be heading to the cinema to watch this work, no doubt.
Compared with the liveliness of Friday, Saturday was even more frenzied. Just standing in the team, you can feel the happiness and excitement radiating from the inside out—
Exchanging interesting things about Renly and discussing bits and pieces of "Jurassic Park", the common feelings between fans and fans have a chemistry.
Since yesterday afternoon, Renly fans and fans of the original series have been closely following the box office trend. There are many opinions on social media, and the entire expected threshold has climbed from 60 million all the way up until someone boldly predicted a single With the height of breaking through 100 million a day, the entire network is fried.
As of June 2015, the box office record in North American film history has been refreshed to a new height.
The highest opening weekend record is held by "The Avengers" with $207 million over the three-day weekend, followed by "Avengers 2" with $191 million over the three weekends Dollar.
The highest single-day box office record is held by "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 2)", with a single-day single of $91 million on the first day of its official release; "The Avengers" has a single-day record of $80 million The box office followed.
Those things that people believed were absolutely impossible, but with the advancement of time are gradually evolving into reality. Although the factor of inflation must be taken into account, the continuous exploration of box office figures and market potential can still bring a steady stream of surprises.
Despite this, some things are still like a fantasy, "it seems unlikely to be realized", for example, a single-day box office exceeded 100 million.
So far, there are only 30 works in North American film history that have exceeded 100 million at the opening weekend, and only 30 works have reached such a high level in the long history.
The experience of last year's summer season is still vivid in my mind. I was waiting for the first weekend box office work to break 100 million, but I was absent for a long time. It was not until the end of July that "Transformers 4" achieved the record with the attitude of brushing the ball, avoiding the The crisis in which the North American summer vacation has become a joke.
This is not some distant history half a century ago, but what really happened last summer, plus the lower-than-expected work of this summer's opening work "Avengers 2", it seems that every sign is showing that: a single-day box office The era of breaking 100 million is still early, and the time is not yet ripe.
Therefore, the rumor that the box office of "Jurassic World" will break 100 million in a single day is not like a "estimate or comment", but more like a joke by speculators, simply relying on the hot spot of this news frenzy to make a splash It's just that, there is not enough evidence and no theoretical support, and I will forget it after laughing.
Don't say that the box office exceeded 100 million in a single day, even the previous "Entertainment Weekly" discussion on "the possibility of breaking the 200 million weekend box office" seems like a conspiracy—
After all, there is only one "Avengers" that can reach such a height at present.
twitter.
Bustling.
hum hum hum.
Countless discussions are spreading, extending from the Internet all the way to reality, and fans of Don Quixote and Jurassic series have also joined the discussion one after another, eager to express their views, on the one hand, they strongly deny Possibilities, on the other hand, could not help but start to look forward to it.
Immersed in such contradictory emotions, the restless anxiety became more and more violent, so that the feeling of waiting in line became weird.
Compared with the movie viewing frenzy on Friday, it can be clearly noticed that the heat wave on Saturday has dropped, mainly because the passenger flow in remote areas has begun to drop significantly, but the carnival party in the lively area is far from over. Instead, the crowd gathered more and more, creating a second wave of frenzy.
There has never been a shortened queue, all the tickets for the morning show are sold out, and the sales speed of the afternoon show and midnight show has not slowed down... You can even see movie fans who made a special trip to buy tickets for Sunday, and those who can't wait to come to the second The fanatical fan of brushing, or even three brushing.
All the signs are showing that the movie viewing craze continues.
"How much is the box office on Friday?"
This is undoubtedly a hot topic for all fans, even more than the movie itself and the charm of Renly, etc., and has gathered countless ardent expectations.
until now.
"The first single-day box office hit of 100 million in North American film history debuts!"
"The Hollywood Reporter" confirmed it as an authoritative news, and "Jurassic World" set a historical record, surpassing the two works of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 2)" and "The Avengers", It has become the first film in the 100-year history of the film that can break the threshold of 100 million at the box office in a single day!

"Record, birth!"
"The king climbs to the top!"
"Break 100 million in a single day!"
The entire social network was quickly occupied by the best news, extending from the film industry to the entire entertainment industry, cultural industry, and even the sports industry and economic industry, all major social network accounts have cast their attention, because of shock, but also because of unexpected Accident.
"Renly-Hall!"
No need for more explanation, no need for too much embellishment, just a name is enough, the official Twitter of "Time Magazine" said:
Renly once again dominated North America with an undisputed strong performance, swept the big screen, and with an incredible gesture, officially announced that the North American film market has entered the era of "100 million a day", writing a new history. Perhaps, some would say it was the dinosaurs; but without Renly, it would have been impossible.
Looking back at what happened yesterday, Fox TV has truly recorded the moment of making history from a God's perspective "overlooking North America".
Later, the clever Fox TV edited a short documentary with news material, "breaking 100 million in a single day", which was broadcast on the TV station and received a lot of support and affirmation from the ratings. It can also be seen from the side that the North American film market has entered a new era of shock and far-reaching influence.
In 2002, "Spider-Man" became the first work in history to exceed 100 million at the weekend box office, officially announcing that the North American film market has entered a new era. In just 13 years, a total of 30 works have reached such a high level, with an average of two films per year. The above growth rate has witnessed a brilliant period.
In 2015, "Jurassic World" became the first work in history to exceed 100 million at the box office in a single day, which will also be the beginning of a new era.
From 100 million on weekends to 100 million on a single day, the hardships and difficulties behind it are far more difficult than the gap shown by the numbers.
But in the end, "Jurassic World" accomplished such a feat, which also became a grand festival for Don Quixote and Jurassic series fans to celebrate collectively.
"… uh, so when is the closest one to the current time? Four-fifteen in the afternoon? Well, then this one, give me two tickets, although there are still five hours, I think I can find Got things to do, the rave party is just getting started, there's no need to rush it."
In the movie theater, fans read news from their smartphones, and then cheered and celebrated. Even if you still have to wait in line to watch the movie, the long waiting time seems to be not so difficult, and even "waiting" can be become a blissful torture.
Movie theaters are just the tip of the iceberg. Netizens on the social network who "haven't watched movies at all just to join in the fun" are even more lively and crazier, as if they really did their best to make history. Like a force, he shouted hoarsely.
Even more frenzied than true movie fans.
The bubbling heat wave continues to rise, and Universal Pictures is silently behind the scenes and continues to fuel the flames. It is completely happy to see such a scene, and I look forward to "Jurassic World" being able to take advantage of such momentum to further open up the situation and truly create a brilliant future. And sensational history.
So, how did the Saturday box office perform
It is foreseeable that Friday's box office has just created North American history, and it has increased by a large margin from the original record, so Saturday's box office numbers will inevitably fall, and the decline is an inevitable rule; but the question is, how much is the decline? That's the point, even more so than Friday's record.
For reference, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 2)", after setting a single-day box office record on Friday, saw an avalanche drop at the box office on Saturday, plummeting by 53%, and the final opening weekend box office also It is only 169 million; "The Avengers", the single-day box office on Friday is not an exaggeration, but the box office on Saturday only dropped by only 14%, and then this work became the number one in film history. A weekend 200 million history maker.
Now, it's "Jurassic World" - what about "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 2)"? Or "The Avengers"
Saturday's one-day box office, $69 million!
