"Little Miss Sunshine" is a mainstream movie because it fits most people's moods; but "Little Miss Sunshine" is also a personalized movie, because of its dark humorous expression, which is different from the mainstream confrontation theme. The usual way of ending is its own color.

But no matter whether "Little Sunshine" is a mainstream movie or a pornographic movie, a work that can impress the audience is a good movie. Under special circumstances, "Little Sunshine" won the first North American weekend box office champion of the first movie in the history of the film, and went down in history. As a director, Evan Bell's name has also left its own imprint in the history of pornography, and his personality and persistence have finally been recognized at this moment. In addition, the first work after the establishment of Eleventh Issue also handed in a perfect answer sheet.

With a box office of 28 million US dollars, "Little Sunshine" won the weekend championship in the second week of November, and "Little Sunshine" stepped on the shoulders to make history, and it was "Four-eyed Tianji".

It has to be said that Disney has absolutely miscalculated this time. "Four-eyed Tianji" has completely become a foil for "Little Sunshine Beauty". Whether it is topic, word-of-mouth, or professional comments, including box office, "Four-eyed Tianji" has fallen behind in an all-round way. If you look at this situation at any other time, it is at most just an ordinary competition between movies and Taiwan, but at the time of the completion of the Pixar acquisition, the success of "Little Sunshine" has become the overwhelm of Disney. The camel's last straw.

"Four-Eyed Chicken" took only $25 million at the box office in the second weekend, a drop of more than 30%, which can only be said to be quite satisfactory. At present, "Four-Eyed Tianji" has accumulated a total of 70 million US dollars at the box office, which is still a long way from the 150 million mark. Disney also intends that the film's global box office will exceed 300 million US dollars. Now that it is overwhelmed by "Little Miss Sunshine", it is a problem to break through 200 million US dollars.

From this point of view, the triangular problem of Eleven Studio, Disney, and Pixar is also a wedding dress for "Little Sunshine" to a certain extent. This makes the achievement of "Four-eyed Tianji" far lower than Evan Bell's memory in his last life. History, after all, has changed.

After "Little Sunshine" and "Four-Eyed Chicken", films such as "Jedi Dragon", "Jumanji", and "Jiaojiatou" did not make more than 20 million US dollars, and the limelight was completely lost Little Miss Sunshine" pressed down. In this head-to-head conversation between Eleven Studios and Disney. Universal Pictures has become a cannon fodder. "Jiaojiatou" and "Chun. Heart. Ripple" have no box office, no word of mouth, and even the attention has disappeared. Of course, this was not intended, and Universal Pictures can only be said to have been accidentally affected and injured.

After "Four Eyed Chicken" lost its third-week box-office competition in November, Disney knew there was no hope. The failure of "Four Eyed Chicken" is doomed, no word of mouth means no box office continuity, and the fourth week of November will be "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire", "Four Eyes" Tianji" is incapable of competing with it.

Among the many movies released in the third week of November, "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" is a well-deserved overlord, and its box-office appeal is unrivaled, even if "Little Sunshine" is against the sky again and won the championship Basically impossible. after all. The huge mass base of "Harry Potter" is really no one can compete in this schedule.

In addition, the biographical film "Forever" starring Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon has also received a lot of attention. This biographical film about Johnny Cash, the founder of American country rock music, is regarded as a work that can be compared with last year's "Soul Singer". If Evan Bell remembers correctly, or if history hasn't changed, Reese Witherspoon won the only Oscar in her life for the movie "Going Forward". Of course, there have been many deviations in history now, and it is unknown whether next year's Oscars will still be the same.

"Little Miss Sunshine" continued to expand its release and was screened in 1,600 movie theaters across the United States. It earned $15,000 at the box office for a single theater and grossed $24 million at the box office. The drop was even less than 5 percent, almost negligible, and basically flat. At present, the cumulative box office of "Little Sunshine Beauty" has reached 75 million US dollars, which is nearly ten times more than the investment of 8 million, which makes people eye-catching.

This week's single-hall box office champion was "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire". The film was released in 3,800 theaters, and still achieved a single-house box office of 38,000 US dollars. In the end, it won 146 million US dollars at the box office on three days over the weekend, and it is undoubtedly the top ten. The fourth week of January North American box office champion.

The runner-up is "Invincible", which won $34 million. This film, which only invested $28 million, achieved eye-catching results as soon as it was released, which is really commendable.

"Little Sunshine Beauty" occupied the third runner-up position, and once again beat the "Four Eyed Chicken", it can be said that the victory and defeat have basically been determined.

In the fifth week of November, "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" won the championship, and the runner-up and third runner-up positions remained unchanged, while the newly released "Full House" took the runner-up position. "Eyed Chicken" was squeezed to the fifth place.

"Four-eyed Tianji" is indeed defeated. Except for a champion in the first week, it has been suppressed by "Little Sunshine" since then. After that, "Little Sunshine Beauty" stayed in the top ten, ending the journey in 2005, relying on excellent word-of-mouth in the box office for a long time. Before the end of 2005, "Little Miss Sunshine" achieved a good result of 90 million US dollars, and critics believed that the film had a high probability of crossing the 100 million US dollar threshold. Especially if the movie does well in awards season, or even the Oscars, then 100 million box office won't be a problem.

Leaving aside "Little Sunshine", the achievements of "Four-eyed Tianji" in 2005 have already come out. North America barely achieved a box office of 110 million US dollars, and just crossed the 100 million threshold. Compared with the investment of 150 million yuan, it is difficult to satisfy Disney. As for the global box office, the $230 million result is far behind, almost a third worse than the "Bug Crisis" of 360 million, not to mention the "Finding Nemo" global 860 million Thousands of results compared. It can be said that "Four-eyed Tianji" was completely defeated in the competition with Pixar!

Even if it is not compared with Pixar, the investment of 150 million in exchange for the global box office of 230 million, after deducting distribution dividends, etc., Disney cannot even say with certainty that there is no loss. It is estimated that it will only be possible after adding peripheral profits. Can be guaranteed. What's more, Disney still has high hopes for this work, hoping to replace Pixar and establish Disney's own computer 3D animation department. But it now appears that this is basically impossible in the short term.

Now the "Four-Eyed Chicken" that Disney's board of directors is desperate for has come out. The box office was a fiasco, the word of mouth was a fiasco, and it was even overwhelmed by "Little Sunshine", which only invested 8 million US dollars. Sad reminder. Also, why is it the "Little Sunshine Beauty" produced by Eleven Studios, which makes Disney even more embarrassed.

Being robbed of Pixar under his nose by a small workshop that was established less than five years ago is enough to become the talk of the next year; now the ambitious "Four-Eyed Chicken" has been completely defeated by "Little Sunshine Beauty", This time Disney really lost to the point where they didn't even have panties.

On November 14th, which is the Monday of the third week of November, when the box office statistics for the second week came out, I learned that "Four Eyed Chicken" lost to "Little Sunshine" and lost the North American weekend box office. At the top of the charts, Disney's board of directors convened an emergency meeting to discuss recent events.

On November 11th, Eleven Studio officially announced the completion of the integration of Pixar. Pixar will still be attached to Eleven Productions in the form of a ** department, and the leader will still be John Lasseter. There will be no changes to Pixar, except that the company is marked with "Eleven" below, and there is no need to move its headquarters to New York. Simply put, the stock is transferred a bit, and the rest remains the same.

In addition, "Cars", the last work of Pixar's cooperation with Disney, is still distributed by Disney~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and the copyright of all animations produced by Pixar is taken over by Eleven Studio, but Eleven Studio does not plan to Recycling the authorization of the production peripherals, Disney can continue to have the production rights of the previous animation peripherals. Teddy Bell also sent a fax to Disney. If Disney is interested, Pixar's animation peripherals can still be licensed to Disney in the future, including the "Toy Story 3" that has entered the pre-planning. Disney is welcome to come to negotiate.

The inside of Disney's board of directors is lively now. They haven't had time to clean up the mess that Pixar was blocked by Eleven Studios, and now they must consider cooperation with Eleven Studios. Although it lost the distribution rights of Pixar cartoons, it would definitely be a redemption for Disney if it could keep the production rights of the surrounding in its hands. Therefore, Disney not only had no time to blame Studio Eleven, but had to break its teeth and swallow it, and then began to think about cooperation with Studio Eleven.

Of course, the most important thing is the animation department itself, whether to continue to build Disney's computer animation department, or to find new acquisition targets: DreamWorks Animation, Blue Sky Studios, or Aardman Studios?
