In 2008, DreamWorks style Ramon parted ways, and people couldn't help guessing, is it going to return to Hollywood's traditional eight major film companies this year? But soon, DreamWorks dispelled people's doubts. It was first reported that DreamWorks would join hands with Universal Pictures, but within a month, the negotiations collapsed. Then DreamWorks and Disney got closer and closer, and the two sides hit it off. Before the arrival of February 2009, DreamWorks announced an official partnership with Disney.

As a result, in 2009, it was still one of the seven major film companies, but the addition of multiple factories did not seem to be able to add too much confidence to Disney.

In 2009, the box office dark horse became the main theme, from the "Department Police" at the beginning of the year to the "Hangover", "Fake Marriage", "Ninth District" in the summer vacation, and then to the "Smart Ghost Recording" in the fall... The "Weakness" that ended at the end of the year, the batch of box office ammunition, made the total box office in North America reach an unprecedented 10.7 billion US dollars. , can definitely be said to be a year worthy of going down in history.

The gloomy gloom of the economic depression has promoted people's desire for spiritual life to a certain extent, which is also the fundamental reason for breakthroughs in both the music and film markets. This is the so-called lipstick effect.

This concept was proposed in the 1930s, when the U.S. economy was in a slump, but Hollywood was booming like never before. Shirley Temple and a bunch of other stars made people happy and forget the hardships of life. It became popular one after another, and people were particularly fond of comedy movies at that time.

It is said that every time the U.S. economy is in recession, lipstick sales will increase, because people think that lipstick is a relatively cheap consumer product, and they will vent their consumption desires on lipstick when they have no money to buy other valuables. And most Americans also equate cheap movie theaters with lipstick. In the United States, a ticket is only a few dollars, even a three-dimensional movie ticket is only fifteen dollars, and a child's ticket is nine dollars. Many families can't take their children to Disneyland, which costs hundreds of dollars, and the movie theater becomes an emergency exit.

Under the lipstick effect, the American film market is extremely prosperous. Not only do blockbusters perform well, but also small-budget films are often seen as dark horses. Warner Bros. has taken advantage of this momentum to collect $2 billion at the box office. For the first time in American history, a production company's total North American revenue reached this height in that year!

Under this lipstick effect, Eleven Studio's performance is also very good. Eleven Studio has a total of eight works in 2009, "Hangover", "Fake Marriage", "Flying House", "Weakness", "One Day", "In the Cloud", "Single Man", "Spiritual Ghost Recording..." Purely numerically speaking, Eleven Studio has increased by one compared to 2008, but from the perspective of investment In terms of level, Studio Eleven has not increased any more, and has basically maintained the level of the past three years. In addition, Evan-Bell also participated in the dubbing work of "Ice King Mortar", which can also be included in the calculation.

In the past three years, the North American year-end box office charts have shown a situation where commercial blockbusters are paired with cartoons to win the championship and runner-up, and the names of Eleven Studio and Evan Bell have always been the main theme, but this year is different. An "Avatar" broke Evan-Bell's dream of winning the year-end box office championship for four consecutive years, so that Evan-Bell unfortunately stopped for three consecutive championships.

"Avatar" has undoubtedly become the year-end box office champion, with a box office record of 749 million US dollars, easily breaking the record set by "The Dark Knight" last year and becoming the box office champion of the new North American film history!

Under the sweeping trend of "Avatar", it is difficult for all other films to form effective resistance, not even "Transformers 2. In fact, "Transformers 2, after a wild bombardment, passed the box office. It reached the threshold of 400 million, but unexpectedly fell into a hard fight. In the end, it only took the runner-up position with an advantage of 1 million, and "Transformers 2, it was the "Flying House Ring" produced by Pixar that launched a strong challenge. travelogue"!

The $411 million achievement of "Flying House" can be said to be a continuation of the excellent record of the past two works of Pixar and Eleven Studios. The disadvantage of one million is only the third place, but the third place result is still an important affirmation.

Compared with the hard-fought and defeated "Flying House Travel Notes" and "The Hangover", the counterattack is the biggest attraction of the year. The North American box office of 310 million US dollars made it beat the mighty "Harry Po". "The Half-Blood Prince..." won the No. 1 spot on the year-end box office rankings, which caused an uproar in the United States, and Shi Shi's "Hangover" also became the leader of the 2009 box office dark horse list.

"Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince..." occupies the fifth place, but is strongly threatened by another "Dark Horse", and "Twilight: New Moon" lags behind the little wizards by less than five million The U.S. dollar took the sixth place. This ranking has indeed made countless film critics fall below their glasses. "New Moon"'s 296 million US dollars achievement, infinitely approaching the 300 million threshold, let people clearly see the powerful power of idols.

"Ice Age 31 came in at $265 million. Seventh on the list, "Weakness" came in eighth just behind five million, while "Star Trek" came in at two million Disadvantage took the ninth place, with "One Day" taking the last spot in the top ten with a box office figure of 219 million.

Among the top ten, Eleven Studios occupies four seats, 20th Century Fox occupies two positions with "Avatar" and "Ice Age 3" respectively, Warner Bros. relies on the little wizards to stick to one position, DreamWorks and Paramount The last work of the collaboration, "Transformers 2," also has a position, and the remaining two positions are "Star Trek" for Paramount and "Crescent Moon" for Summit Entertainment.

It is worth mentioning that "Sherlock Holmes" produced by Warner Bros. occupied the eleventh place with a score of 217 million US dollars, which also made Black Lively's first box office more than two times. 100 million works, this is really among the first-line actress position.

In addition, "Fake Marriage" ranked 13th, "On the Cloud" ranked 23rd, and "Spiritual Ghost Recording..." ranked 25th. As for "Single Male Hands", the ranking is already out of 100. .

Eleven Studio's eight works have won a total of 1.513 billion US dollars in the North American market, which is a long way from Warner Bros. At the same time, it also lost to relying on "Avatar" and "Star Trek" Paramount Pictures, which started the turnaround battle, finally took the third place among the seven major North American film companies!

This time, behind Eleven Studios stands impressively the figures of Sony Columbia, 20th Century Fox, Disney, and Universal Pictures. Now Eleven Studios has not only gained a firm foothold among the seven major film companies, but also The smallest investment in exchange for the highest return, and a strong ranking among the top three, this can definitely be said to be a historic leap forward, and the current Eleven Studio is no longer something that any company can ignore.

But the problem lies in the fact that Studio Eleven has achieved such amazing results, but the media did not make too much fuss. Some people even think that the performance of Studio Eleven this year is "too bland", whether it is box office or awards season, this It can also be seen that people have successfully accepted the record of Eleven Studios ranking in the top seven, so it is not surprising for its outstanding performance.

In this year's seven-day company rankings, 20th Century Fox broke away from the rear of the car and ranked fifth; Disney and Universal Pictures were troubled brothers, occupying sixth and seventh respectively. Now their task is not aimed at Eleven Studio, but how to seek cooperation in the competition, presumably this is also the fundamental reason why Universal Pictures, represented by Lang Meyer, has softened its attitude towards Eleven Studio.

In the global box office rankings, "Avatar" is the unshakable champion, while the runner-up position is occupied by "Flying House", which is infinitely close to history, with a global box office of 991 million; "Ice Age 3, The violent explosion made it surpass many competitors and successfully won the third place with a score of 980 million US dollars, which is also a very special record in film history. Rare indeed.

The tenacious counterattack of "Flying House" and "Ice Age 3", the victims are "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood King...", the global box office of 940 million US dollars can only be slumped to the The fifth place belongs to "Transformers 2". These five works have also become the works that exceeded 800 million at the box office this year. This is also a rare scene in history. No wonder this year's year-end box office will break the historical record.

Both "2012" and "Crescent Moon" have passed the global box office. The threshold of 700 million, occupying the sixth and seventh positions respectively, and the box office data of "The Hangover" of 550 million came to the eighth place~www.wuxiaspot.com~The Great Detective Sherlock Holmes" relies on the excellent performance of overseas markets , occupying the ninth place with a score of 530 million US dollars, and the last position in the top ten is the score of 485 million "Angels and Demons" belonging to a large overseas fan base. vulgar.

After that, "One Day" with a box office of 409 million was obviously not dominant in the global box office, falling in the thirteenth place; "Fake Marriage" with a global box office of 350 million was the first Eighteenth, the "weakness" of 320 million is exactly the twentieth.

Surprisingly, the $260 million global box office of "In the Cloud" actually ranks among the top 30 and ranks 25th, and its performance is commendable; 215 million US dollars, occupying the 30th place in the year-end list. As for "Single Man", its box office has already ranked out of 200 worldwide, it is not worth mentioning.

Overall, Studio Eleven has now firmly occupied a place in the ranks of the seven major film companies, and is even far behind many established film companies. Unparalleled in the world, this is enough to make Studio Eleven hold its head high and be full of self-confidence!
