People have predicted that "Trumen's World" will win a big box office. People have predicted that "Trumen's World" will eventually reach a box office of more than 200 million yuan. People have predicted that "Trumen's World" is likely to become the best box office performance in film history. In one of the comedy movies of "Trumen", people have predicted that "Trumen's World" may once again become a witness to the "Hugo Myth"... But people have never predicted that "Trumen's World" can reach such a high level.

Before "Trumen's World" was released, many people thought that Hugo had lost his mind due to the topic of "Sixth Sense of Supernatural" and "Star Wars". First comedy movies, then horror movies, these different themes The uncertainty brought about by his works is difficult for any actor to overcome, which also reduces the box office expectations of "Trumen's World".

But now, "Trumen's World" has gone farther and farther in terms of historical height.

After breaking the box office record of "Home Alone", the pace of "Trumen's World" did not stop, and it still strode towards the 300 million threshold. At present, in the entire movie history, only eight works have a box office of more than 300 million yuan, including a work by Hugo: "Independence Day."

Currently among the eight works, Harrison Ford has two exclusive titles: "Star Wars 1" and "Star Wars 3". The other "Star Wars 2" ranks ninth in movie history with a box office of 290 million. . Coupled with the excellent performance of the "Indiana Jones" series, all this has become the cornerstone of Harrison becoming the first box office star in film history.

However, Harrison’s two series of works are obviously those whose directorial ability and series culture are higher than those of actors. The reason that soon replaced Harrison's box office superstar status. Compared to Harrison, their box office appeal is more diversified and more personal, and their appeal to the audience is higher than Harrison.

Now, Hugo also owns his second work that ranks among the top ten in film history, and it is two completely different works, and "Trumen's World" is about to become his second personal work with a box office of 300 million yuan, here On the one hand, Hugo is also about to compete with Harrison, truly fulfilling its title of "box office superstar".

The US dollar has become the ninth film in film history with a box office of more than 300 million yuan, and it also ranks ninth in the film history.

Just as no one could predict that "Life and Death Speed" would get a box office of 239 million U.S. dollars, and no one could predict that "L.A. Confidential" would get a box office of 260 million U.S. dollars, let alone. One can expect that "Trumen's World" will have a box office capacity of 300 million.

Take a closer look at the eight works with a box office of 300 million, "Titanic", "Independence Day", "Star Wars", "Alien e.t", "Jurassic Park", "Forrest Gump" ", "The Lion King", "Star Wars 3", among the eight works, only one "Forrest Gump" is a drama movie, one "The Lion King" is an animated cartoon, and the other eight Movies are all commercial blockbusters with visual effects dominating the main body-all of the top five are like this.
