Chapter 208 Sweeping the world, missing the mainland!

After "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" held a premiere in Los Angeles, the next day the crew and crew flew across the Atlantic and came to the UK, where they also held a premiere for Europe.

The European premiere was held in London's Leicester Square. Thousands of fans came to support the show that day, and many British stars came to the scene to promote the show.

Keira wore a golden dress with a noble and elegant temperament, and went into battle with her naked back, sexy and sultry.

Depp appeared wearing sunglasses and a hat, and his personality was handsome and attractive.

Orlando Bloom is handsome.

In addition, well-known British actors and singers, including Kelly Brook and Natalie Immortal, also competed to show their support.

After this European premiere, it was basically announced that "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" will be released on a large scale around the world.

On July 6th, one day earlier than in North America, "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" took the lead in Australia, the United Kingdom, Ireland, South Korea, Malaysia,

It premiered simultaneously in eight countries and regions including the Philippines, Thailand, and Taiwan.

Although the combined box office performance of these eight countries and regions is not as high as that of North America, they still grossed a total of more than 30 million US dollars in premiere box office on the first day!

The real highlight comes on day two.

On July 7, "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" was released in the United States and Uruguay.

Uruguay is a small country with not much to say.

But the U.S. premiere of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" was huge.

In the United States alone, the number of screens at the time of release reached 4,133, a number second only to "Shrek 2" and "Spider-Man 2" in 2004.

Such a large-scale screening is naturally because North American movie fans have high enough expectations and enthusiasm for this movie.

On the day of the release, all theaters in the United States were full. Countless movie fans from all over the country flocked to the theaters to buy tickets for "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" and watch this fantasy blockbuster with their families or lovers.

And the enthusiastic wave of movie fans watching the movie naturally brought about a very high first-day box office result.

On the day it was released in the United States, "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" broke the record for the highest box office on its first day of release, earning US$55.5 million in a single day, becoming the highest-grossing film in the United States for its first-day box office!

On the second day of its release, "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" achieved another success, taking in US$55.8 million, once again setting a new record for the highest single-day box office!

On its third day of release, "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" broke the highest box office in its first week with a box office of US$135.6 million in its first three days of release.

In North America, new movies are usually released on Friday, so the so-called box office in the first week of release is mostly just the box office results of Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

It earned 130 million US dollars in three days, which is a box office result that has never been achieved before in Hollywood.

All of Hollywood went completely crazy.

There are many people who are envious, jealous, and fans. The bosses of other major production companies are even more upset behind their backs that this good IP has been handed over to Disney.

They never expected that a pirate movie could be so successful?

Is it because of the fantasy elements added to it?

However, relevant practitioners who went to the cinema to watch this movie for the first time had to admit that this movie is indeed very good.

As a commercial film, this movie is absolutely excellent.

The mysterious "Flying Dutchman" has simply subverted all movie fans' imagination of "Pirates".

Using computer special effects technology, the image of every crew member on this cursed pirate ship is so magical.

Captain Davy Jones has an octopus face and crab-claw-like hands and walks on crab legs.

The other crew members are all full of marine life style, and they have lost their image as human beings.

Especially the barnacles on their bodies were so lifelike that they made the moviegoers exclaim.

"Pirates of the Caribbean 2" has built a more complete and fantastic pirate world for movie fans around the world.

Huge octopuses, pirates who are a mixture of humans and sea creatures, and exquisitely crafted pirate ships.

From beginning to end, the film is like a mist on the sea, with a mysterious atmosphere.

The ghost pirates come and go without a trace, the puzzling prophecies of the gypsy witch, and the uncertain fate of Captain Jack all make people confused, but they are very interested and want to find out.

The bizarre scenes, realistic sea monsters, and terrifying Boss are all eye-catching elements in the film.

Some film critics immediately praised the movie after watching it.

"I originally thought that the two-and-a-half-hour film would inevitably be boring, but Johnny Depp's offbeat performance, the director's imaginative camera language and grasp of rhythm, as well as the wonderful performances of Orlando Bloom and Keira Nye... Terri’s dynamic as a young couple makes the movie flow very well.”

“After reading it, I didn’t realize that so much time had passed!”

Of course, it's not all praise.

After all, as a commercial film, while increasing the selling point to attract movie fans, there will be many flaws and flaws.

The content is too messy and flashy, relying entirely on special effects. What attracts the audience's attention has changed from the plot to endless computer stunts.

There are also criticisms that it does not live up to its name, is flashy and ostentatious, and that the plot is too obscure and complicated.

Compared with the amazingness of the first film, it seems that this sequel dissatisfied many film critics.

However, these critical voices do not affect the global success of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2".

Within July, the film will be released in more than 30 countries and regions around the world.

If the time is extended to August, more than ten countries will also release the film.

However, mainland China, the home country of director Wu Yuan, has yet to make any arrangements or announcements about the release of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2".

Domestic netizens and movie fans have been paying close attention to this movie. After all, this is a work directed by Wu Yuan. Wu Yuan's popularity in China does not need to be elaborated.

However, some well-informed people expressed pessimistically on the Internet that the General Administration should ban the film and it will not be released in the mainland.

The reason is that the movie has a horrific plot, is bloody, involves the undead, skeletons, etc., and is not suitable for teenagers to watch.

Disney failed to pass the first review, and the original August release date in China was given to another Disney animated film, "Cars."

The original schedule was given to other films, which shows that Disney has no intention of re-editing the film and submitting it for review again after the initial submission failed.

Today's mainland film market is really not that important. By 2020, Marvel will dare to top the General Administration. If it doesn't show in the mainland, it won't be there, let alone Disney now?

After "Pirates of the Caribbean" won the weekly box office championship in North America, the United Kingdom, Australia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Taiwan in China in its first week, Disney did not worry about the release in the mainland at all.

Now Disney only cares about one thing besides the global box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2".

That means "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" must start filming immediately!

One more minute of delay would be disrespectful to the profitability of this IP!
