From the appalling box office in the first week to an amazing drop of 23% in the following week, with a total of 224 million US dollars in two weeks, the box office curve of "Independence Day" has become the most exciting since 1996. In TV series, everyone is looking forward to the next plot, and every ups and downs can affect the hearts of countless audiences.

In the third week of July, the answer that the North American Cinemas League’s participation in the exhibition was revealed for the first time was 38.6 million U.S. dollars!

Such performance is not enough even if it is amazing. Described, this is the box office data that set a precedent in history, even far more scary than the 100 million-level box office data on the first Monday of the show.

Because this is the third week of the movie's release-after two weeks of energy consumption, any work-especially commercial movies-will usher in a sharp drop in the box office, which is an inevitable law of the market. Compared with the explosiveness of the film’s premiere box office, the battery life in the following weeks is the most important and the most difficult, because it is not only related to the appeal of the film actors, but also related to the attraction of the movie to the audience. force.

Maybe many works can get a $40 million weekend box office in the first week, but not every work can drop by 30% consecutively in the next and third weeks—especially Commercial movies can even be said to be one of the few.

Looking at the historical box office rankings of North American movies, the current third week’s weekend box office record holder is "Tornado". This work, which was released at the beginning of this summer vacation, refreshed the previous "Jurassic Park" and "Speed ​​of Life and Death". "The record kept, the data of 29 million U.S. dollars was handed over in the third week, which astounded the entire North American film market.

But now, "Independence Day" not only refreshed this record with ease, it also raised the box office performance in the third week from 20 million to 30 million, and it is infinitely approaching the 40 million level. This is undoubtedly a change. A performance in history, even more shocking than the $80 million box office at the premiere weekend, can definitely be called the best performance in history-perhaps in the near future, the seemingly unsurpassed premiere box office of "Independence Day" The record will be broken, but the box office record created by "Independence Day" in the third week will be a target for countless works to look up to for a long, long period of time.

He was dumbfounded, speechless, and thrown into the ground...No matter how gorgeous the vocabulary is, it can't describe the excitement of the media at this time.

"Hugo Lancaster rewrites history!"

"Twenty-eight percent drop, perfect answer for'Independence Day'!"

"Computer special effects and Hugo Lancaster's win!"

"This is an unbeatable movie! Lancaster chants ‘Independence Day’ dominates!"

"The dream of 400 million! A big sprint for'Independence Day'!"

………… The headlines of the major media are sensational, but even if these headlines are horrifying or exaggerated and exciting, it is not an exaggeration. Almost the entire United States has begun to riot.

Objectively speaking, no matter whether people like the "Independence Day" movie or not, whether or not Hollywood professionals approve the concept of "high investment and high return", and no matter the views that computer special effects will ruin the art of film, no one can. Denial, the "Independence Day" three consecutive weeks of box office frenzy has played a stimulating effect on the entire film market and even the entire North American economy. While opening a new era, almost every aspect of the Hollywood industry can be used. Benefit.

With a 28% box office drop in the third week, the cumulative box office for the three weeks of "Independence Day" has reached 289 million U.S. dollars, making it into the top ten of North American box office history and surpassing it. "Home Alone", who had previously created a box office of 285 million US dollars, ranked sixth in film history!

At present, "Independence Day" has become the leader of Hollywood's 200 million box office works. The next step is to move towards the 300 million threshold. Undoubtedly, the box office of the movie next week is about to exceed 300 million yuan. As long as the box office of the fourth week does not fall by more than 70%, "Independence Day" can reach this height. Judging from the weekly decline, there is obviously no difficulty in achieving this goal.

This also means that after reaching 100 million at the fastest and 200 million at the fastest, "Independence Day" will also become the fastest film history to reach 300 million US dollars, joining the "300 million box office" club of Hollywood movies!

If this breakthrough is successfully completed, "Independence Day" will not only become the first work of Hugo Professional Commercial at the box office of 300 million U.S. dollars, but it will also make "Independence Day" the sixth film in North American film history with a box office of over 300 million. Behind "Alien e.t", "Jurassic Park", "Forrest Gump", "Star Wars" and "The Lion King".

In 1996, 300 million is the limit level of the North American film market. Only five works in the entire history have reached this level, and the time they have reached this level proves this point.

It took 67 days for "Jurassic Park" to break through 300 million US dollars, "Alien e.t" for 184 days, "Lion King" for 188 days, "Forrest Gump" "The True Story" took 193 days, and "Star Wars" took more than a year.

But what about "Independence Day"? Now three weeks have just passed, four weeks? Or five weeks? At present, "Independence Day" is very promising to reach this threshold in only half the time of using "Jurassic Park".

Therefore, when the "Los Angeles Times" publicly used the front page headlines to announce that the "Independence Day" box office is sprinting toward 400 million. This is not a joke, let alone a mockery, but a reality. The miracle that everyone once thought was impossible is happening now. "Independence Day" created such an incredible situation with one step at a time. Let the miracle have the possibility to become a reality.

"Independence Day" is the historical destroyer of the entire North American film market. It is creating an unprecedented world with an inviolable and unstoppable attitude. It will also be a whole new world unimaginable by the predecessors.

It is hard to imagine that a controversial "Independence Day", under heavy burden and suffering, under the circumstances of general uncertainty and suspicion, not only has not been overwhelmed, but on the contrary, it has also made great strides forward. , Dominate the North American film market with a mighty sweep, pushing the wheel of history forward. Facts have proved that "Independence Day" is obviously not "Future Water World", nor is it "Jurassic Park" or "True Lies". It is "Independence Day", a unique and irreplaceable "Independence Day"!

Faced with the performance of "Independence Day" in the third week that is still so good that it is impossible to do anything, a lot of works completely lost their armor and armor.

"Independence Day" unsurprisingly completed the first three consecutive championships after the unveiling of this year's summer archive, and its huge advantage made it impossible for other works to compete directly. Except for "Independence Day", none of the works exceeded 10 million at the box office. , The best-performing "different instinct. Ability" only earned 8 million dollars at the weekend box office, which is in sharp contrast to the strength of "Independence Day".

Faced with the performance of "Independence Day" sweeping US$38.6 million, the weekend box office collective diving of all works this week was 40%, and the 38% drop in "Life and Death" is the only one this week. The "green character" has gone, and many works have fallen by more than 60%.

In sharp contrast, "Ace Specialist" broke a 75% drop. The weekend box office with only $250,000 earned only six weeks after it was released. It will soon be announced offline. The "Night Interview with Vampires" against "Pulp Fiction" was even more bleak.

With just such a data detail, we can see the current share of "Independence Day" in the entire North American film market.

As for the four new works released this week, it can be described as a "rabbit crowd". The weekend box office of the four works is 5 million, and no one can exceed 6 million. It is like a fatal stumbling horse. They will be released completely. All four works of "Ghost of Horror" stumbled together, and the box office performance of "Terrorist Ghost" of $5.5 million was already far ahead, becoming the "champion" of the four films released this week-not even a fraction of "Independence Day" achieve.

Although the strong performance of "Independence Day" in the first two weeks has made people generally believe that it is undoubtedly very difficult for the four new works to perform well; but everyone did not expect that the gap is so big, "Independence Day" One sneeze of "" is enough to make other works messy ~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ However, no one will regret the losers-even the film companies themselves don't care too much because of the huge success of "Independence Day". The hope that has come is enough to make up for their losses. What they care more about is how high the box office of "Independence Day" can reach, and can it really reach the 400 million threshold?

Everyone in Hollywood is cheering for "Independence Day" because they all know that this is a feat of writing history, and everyone is a witness to this history.

It is worth mentioning that "Guessing the Train" was screened in eight theaters this week, and the box office of the single library was only 32,000 US dollars-even with the single library created by the "Independence Day" in the 3,200 theaters. There is not much difference in the box office. It can be seen that the Americans did not appreciate the essence of this movie. Such a classic can only wait for the precipitation of time before it slowly blooms.

No one cares about "Guess the Train", just like no one cares about other losers, because now there is only one "Independence Day" in the entire North American film market, and only this "Independence Day"! This movie starring Hugo is advancing in great strides, who can keep up with it?

Maybe not.
