The last one is obviously fishing in troubled waters. It's hard to do just to rub the hot spots. However, this news has caused a lot of discussion on the Internet. From this aspect, we can see that the premiere of "speed and passion 5" has made a sensation, and any topic is the focus.
The next day, the entertainment headlines of the major news were undoubtedly dominated by "speed and passion 5", and more than 300 paper media reported at the first time. To be more accurate, as long as the news media have the entertainment section, no one will miss the hot Premiere - or the unveiling war.
Before the premiere, Nathan once complained about why people were generally not optimistic about "speed and passion 5" in this duel. In his opinion, if this series of works can be shot to the fifth, the fan base can not be underestimated; What's more, every man has more or less fantasies about luxury cars. The market foundation of the series of films should have great potential; Plus van diesel, Paul Walker, and lenley Hall's rallying power... This work really has the ability to create great achievements.
Not only Nathan, but also many laymen think so. But in fact, the industry generally regards "speed and passion 5" as a dark horse, which is not without reasons.
After all, the theme is the fatal factor. From a general point of view, men are the main force in the summer market, and men have a certain interest in luxury cars and racing cars. The mass base of such films should be very broad. But people have ignored one important point: it is not easy to shoot new ideas, patterns and quality in racing movies.
"Speed and passion" series itself is faced with such a dilemma. Simply racing speed and racing duel, the script is difficult to sustain 90 minutes, and it is difficult to create new ideas. So in the third series, we chose the drift of Asian racing, which is very popular, but in the end, it broke down in the United States.
It's not just "speed and passion". In the whole film history of North America, there are many films about racing or drag racing, such as "speed of life and death", "taxi express", "speed of death", "speed of extreme 60 seconds", "racing story", etc. but among them, only "speed of life and death" has made a profit.
Only one.
"Taxi express" is very popular at the box office in France, but it is not acclimatized in North America“ "Speed 60 seconds" gathered two big names, Nicolas Cage and Angelina Jolie, and finally the box office in North America barely exceeded 100 million, which brought nearly 30 million losses to Disney's Bowe film industry; Even the invincible and invincible Pixar suffered the first comprehensive collapse of word-of-mouth in North America because of "racing story", and the box office revenue was barely flat.
People call the "speed and passion" series B-rated movies, and the scale of investment is only part of the reason.
In addition, the caution of Universal Pictures is also an important reason. From the cost of investment, to the cast of CASS, to the cost of publicity, "speed and passion 5" can not be regarded as a blockbuster. Even if the cost of the fifth movie reaches 120 million, the overall specification still does not meet the standard of summer blockbuster, Or continue the previous B-class film propaganda routine - just a relatively high investment B-class film.
To sum up, the overall momentum and weight of "speed and passion 5" are not at the same level as "Thor". It's like boxing, two players of different weights. It's not about who's more powerful, it's about the magnitude itself.
But now, the black horse has shown incredible explosive power, showing excellent fighting power from the premiere.
On the one hand, according to incomplete statistics, more than 1460 audiences attended the premiere, setting a new historical record for non summer premiere audiences; Among them, 291 spectators cheered for lenley, which was reminiscent of the premiere of twilight.
Such a grand occasion is really impressive. The so-called worry about the weak foundation of fans in the market seems to be turning into a joke.
On the other hand, compared with Raytheon, the starlight of "speed and passion 5" is undoubtedly much dimmer, but last night's premiere was full of scenery. Seth Logan, Jennifer Lawrence, Ryan Gosling and other focus topics arrived at the scene one after another, which made Langley shine; Later, Scarlett Johnson also recorded a video to express that she was unable to attend because of her "contract" -- she played "Iron Man 2" last year and officially became a member of Marvel Universe, which also attracted a lot of laughter from reporters.
If it wasn't for the surprise video later, the best connection of that night would have been in the spotlight of lanli, even Paul, who invited his good friend Jessica Alba to attend. This also makes people realize that Chris Hemsworth's previous slander is false, which in turn increases the real credibility of the "borrowing door". However, the surprise video that followed also contributed to Lan Li's success
Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg made a video to celebrate the premiere of the work of lenley and fan. This is definitely the biggest topic of the night - people just remember that fan played "Saving Private Ryan" when he was just a child, not to mention Langley.
Originally, people were still worried that the dim starlight would affect the follow-up publicity of the premiere; I didn't expect that the stars were dazzling that night. Today's major media reports have focused their attention on these key figures. It's very lively. Universal studios are not likely to be able to give publicity to the movie box office, which seems to suck away.
Of course, these are only potential factors. It seems that there are a lot of flowers. In fact, it is still unknown how much contribution it will bring to the box office. The most important thing, after all, is the reaction of the audience and critics.
After the premiere, including the "Seattle Post", a total of four media conducted on-the-spot investigation and interview to get an intuitive and simple understanding of the audience's ideas for the first time.
The Seattle Post interviewed 103 viewers that night, 75 of whom said that the film was wonderful and far beyond expectations; Twenty one viewers said that the film was good and reached the expected standard; Another seven viewers thought the film was dull, even if they didn't watch it.
When asked whether they would recommend friends to watch, a total of 99 viewers gave a positive reply, and only four said they would not; As for the opening battle of "speed and passion 5" and "Raytheon", 57 viewers said they would not watch "Raytheon", but supported "speed and passion 5", 32 viewers said they would watch "Raytheon", and 14 viewers said they would decide after seeing the media evaluation and audience reputation of "Raytheon".
What's most interesting is that "the best part" was mentioned in the interview. Eighty eight viewers mentioned "Langley hall" or "new characters", 74 viewers mentioned "the last drag racing" or "the showdown", and 27 viewers mentioned "Van Diesel". As for other various keywords, there are many more, It's just that the frequency is not that high.
As we all know, the audience who are willing to attend the premiere are basically those who are full of expectations for the film, and they can also be regarded as those who love the film. Therefore, their evaluation will be more positive.
Nevertheless, more than 93% of the audience expressed their expectations or expectations, and more than 96% of the audience said they would recommend it to their friends. This proportion is still shocking. The simple conclusion is: the audience expressed their great love.
It's not just the Seattle Post, but the other three media that conducted the field survey also got similar results. Based on the audience of the premiere, the popcorn satisfaction index reached an incredible 99%.
Although the audience base of the premiere is small, the composition is loyal, and the reference value is not big, the final thing is to see the score of the cinema and the popcorn index of rotten tomatoes after the weekend of the premiere, but the high praise on the night of the premiere surprised countless people!
In the box office battle of summer archives, the evaluation of film critics is still an important measure, but it is undeniable that the influence is relatively limited. Works like "Transformers" with constant curse can always create box office miracles by virtue of the wonderful visual effects; Relatively speaking, the popcorn index and theater score, which reflect the audience's attitude, are the key to box office.
Now that the premiere of "speed and passion 5" is over, they have made an incredible start in the score of audience reaction; The birth of lanli adds some magical color to the film, which makes people have more curiosity: what kind of new role can actually inject so much vitality into the series of films?
