"What can I do for you, please?" Chris's confused thoughts were interrupted by the inquiry in front of him. He realized that it was his turn to queue up. His head couldn't react for a moment, and he was stunned. His words were spinning on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't make any sound. It was really embarrassing.
The other side had to repeat the question, and Chris finally came to his senses and said, "Thor, one, I mean, two." After that, Chris nodded to confirm and repeated, "two." It seems that this kind of behavior can give you a little confidence, and then hastily added, "my girlfriend is waiting for me." Trying to hide his confusion and mood.
Involuntarily, Chris wiped his palms. The hot and humid sweat made his palms slippery, and the sweat behind his back made his clothes wet. He quickly took two movie tickets, and he almost ran away. He turned around and walked quickly. The voice of the staff gradually faded away, and sprinted all the way to the screening hall.
All of a sudden, a strong figure appeared in front of us. Both of them were so fast that they almost collided with each other. Both of them made an emergency brake.
"Sorry." Chris lowered his voice and pretended not to be himself. In a hurry, he quickly raised his head and took a look. Then he was stunned. It was van diesel standing in front of him.
It's definitely an unexpected encounter. It's not unusual to meet any actor here, but fan?
Chris reflexively lowered his head and subconsciously glanced at fan's movie tickets: the same two, the same "Thor". Chris didn't know why he bowed his head or why he wanted to see each other's movie tickets, but as a result, Chris's eyes stopped and his brain froze.
Fan seemed to notice Chris' burning sight, scalded the back of his hand, pretended not to care, but obviously stuffed the movie ticket into his pocket. Then he saw the movie ticket in Chris' hand. This simple action made Chris feel as if he had been needled by embroidery. He immediately carried his hands behind him and could not help but clench his hands into fists, The tickets were crumpled up.
Fan looked unnaturally to the side, hiding his embarrassment; Chris kept his head down and his eyes fell on the top of his shoes.
Silence, two people did not speak, just a silence, seems to be thinking about what, also seems to be hiding something.
Maybe it's a second, maybe it's a minute, I don't know who reacted first, or at the same time, two people raised their heads, their eyes crossed, there was no conversation, they just nodded, and they didn't even know what the meaning of the nod was, so they quickly lowered their heads again, stepped away.
It wasn't until the entrance of the screening hall, after checking in, that Chris relaxed a little. Inexplicably, his nervous mood was slightly relieved, and his confidence in the victory of "Thor" was slightly increased.
Let's think about it in depth. On the surface, lanli, who seems to have boundless scenery, is highly sought after in front of the media, but in fact, lanli's position seems to be suffering. After this idea took root in his mind, Chris's mouth rose slightly, and the pressure on his shoulder seemed to be relieved.
Maybe Thor can really win this weekend's box office. Who knows?
On May 8, fox produced a program to analyze the winning and losing trend of the summer season's opening battle, focusing on the first flourishing age of this year's film market.
After "Raytheon" handed in 23 million US dollars at the box office on Friday, the prospect of its premiere suddenly became complicated. Its market share share with its direct competitor "speed and passion 5" is likely to be a curve of growth and decline. The decline and rise of Saturday and Sunday are likely to interact with the decline of "speed and passion 5" in the next week, This also means that the entanglement of victory and defeat has entered a white hot stage, which really makes people excited.
The opening battle is attracting more and more attention. According to incomplete statistics, the audience flow of the main cinemas in the top ten cities in North America has reached the highest level this year, and the attendance rate of cinemas has exceeded 60%. It is certain that the film market in the first week of summer season has burst out with amazing energy, The total box office in North America over the weekend is expected to exceed 200 million US dollars, which is a shot in the arm for the whole film market——
You know, so far this year, the total box office of a single weekend has exceeded 150 million, only one week. It was the weekend that speed and passion 5 took the lead last week.
This program of Fox TV station has come to the final conclusion that it will be a very narrow victory, and the deviation value is likely to be within 10 million, and it will end up with a close victory of "Thor". Considering the overall momentum before, a more accurate word is: a tragic victory, a tragic victory.
No matter what, to keep the box office champion for the weekend is the last fig leaf for Raytheon. Although they are still very shameful, frustrated and embarrassed, they need this piece of cloth. They need it urgently and sincerely, even if it is a tragic victory. Yes, no, it's the difference between heaven and earth!
At least, a week champion can let them seize the commanding height in the propaganda offensive. The interview of crew members and the writing of official manuscripts can win more room, maintain the posture of winners and competitors, and maintain the posture of continuous efforts at the follow-up box office; But if even the title is lost, then... Paramount will not allow this "if" to appear.
This champion, for Raytheon, is determined to win!
This program has attracted more than 3.3 million viewers, and Fox TV station is overjoyed by its excellent ratings. It is not only a temporary event like this, but also a news program covering the box office battle. They originally expected to have 1.5 million viewers, which is a victory. Who would have thought that the number of viewers more than doubled as expected.
What's more, the program was then uploaded to the pipeline. In just 12 hours, or before the final results were announced at the box office at the weekend, the click through rate reached a staggering 3 million.
It is no exaggeration to say that the unveiling war has become the most sensational, grand and lively entertainment news event so far in 2011. Whether it's the audience who supports a certain work or the onlookers who are watching, everyone is curious: who won? The most simple and rough, the most direct and clear, the most crisp, only to success or failure on the hero - who won!
On May 9, the North American box office statisticians released their weekend box office charts for the second week of May.
In North America, the box office statistics are all completed by independent organizations participating in the exhibition. They have a huge network of professionals, which are distributed in the main cinemas of various cities to make statistics, forecast and summary of the box office.
Generally speaking, they will publish three groups of data. The first group is the box office on Friday, which will be published on Saturday; The second group is the weekend box office forecast, which will be released on Monday; The third group is the weekend accurate box office, announced on Tuesday.
The reason for this is that in view of the great attention of the weekend box office list in North America, in order to announce the news at the first time, the professionals of the exhibition relationship will predict the percentage of decline on a Sunday and a box office figure according to the box office trend on Friday and Saturday, as well as the audience flow on Sunday morning, which will be announced in time on Monday.
But as long as it is an estimate, there will be some deviation. After years of repeated evolution, in fact, there are fewer and fewer errors in the estimated figures. But occasionally, when the gap between the box office figures is very weak, the estimated box office error is less than 2 million, which is normal, not to mention the deviation of hundreds of thousands or tens of thousands.
In history, after the box office champion was announced, after accurate adjustment, there were not many, but also many, champions changed their owners.
In the program of Fox TV station, the host joked that the gap between the winner and the loser this time is too small. It is likely that we need to wait for the confirmation of the accurate box office. Originally, it was just a joke, but after the announcement of the exhibition relationship and the forecast box office, it has gradually become a reality.
In the second week of May, "Raytheon" was launched in full swing in 3955 theaters. Compared with the 3600 theaters of "speed and passion 5", it occupied some advantages. However, these advantages turned into box office figures, but they were very weak.
After 23 million on Friday, Raytheon's box office on Saturday not only did not rise, but also ushered in an 8% decline. From the drop figures, this is good, at least better than "speed and passion 5"; But considering that Friday's box office is really bad, what paramount needs is not only an increase, but also a substantial increase, which has now become a bubble in the water; Finally, the relationship between exhibitors predicted that the one-day box office on Sunday would drop by 27% again, which resulted in the weekend box office of Raytheon's premiere——
59610000 dollars.
Dead silence. When the exhibitor relationship announced the box office data of Raytheon's premiere weekend, the whole North America was in a dead silence, not exclamation, not surprise, not exclamation, but a dead silence. The silence, as if all life had disappeared, really showed people's shock and amazement.
Not to mention 95 million, not to mention 65 million, "Raytheon" premiere weekend box office data even failed to cross the threshold of 60 million!
The premiere box office results, only ranked 26 in the North American premiere box office in May. Not only did it not break the record, nor did it exceed 100 million, or even 60 million. Such a terrible performance makes people go back to winter from summer in one second.
What about speed and passion 5?
