Chapter 1515

From Venice to Toronto and then to New York, "gravity" is advancing all the way. When the film is officially released, people have expected the coming of the wave of praise, at least for the professional media, there should not be too many accidents; But when it really happened, the wave of praise from the mass media, senior fans and ordinary audiences still reached the expectation.

Media comprehensive evaluation, 99 points, has undoubtedly created history.

The freshness index of rotten tomatoes, which was scored by 328 mass media, reached 97% with an average of 9.3 points; In horizontal comparison, the freshness of "Avatar" was 83%, and the average score was 7.5“ The lead of "gravity" is omnidirectional.

From professional media to mass media, sweeping all the way!

After the rating of IMDB's senior audience and the official opening of the website, the audience who watched the films in the previous three film festivals and premieres seemed to be wondering whether this work will become the Waterloo of lanli before the official shooting of each of lanli's works?

At the end of last year, "chaotuo" suffered from a double-edged word-of-mouth split, and its box office performance was just in line, far less shocking than other previous works. This was also considered a "failure" by many people - a failure for Lan Li, who created countless miracles, but did not expect that, However, in the sprint stage of the college's public relations, "chaotuo" has completed the anti super, which has added a flame to the discussion upsurge of "gravity" for lanli's continuous from full mark comments to special reports. "New York Times" is breaking through the sky step by step. All of them indicate that the box office boom is on the way.

Now the only worry is: does the box office potential of autumn stalls really exist? Is "gravity", which has created countless miracles, unable to overcome the law of the market, just like a bullock into the sea, so submerged in the bleak autumn stalls? It's also true that there are many well received but mediocre box office works. Will gravity become another Superman return?

In 2006, Warner Bros.'s "superman returns" came into the summer archives. The media gave a comprehensive rating of 72 points, the freshness of rotten tomatoes was 75%, and the mass media gave a rating of 7 points. Although it can't be said to be a big word-of-mouth hit, for popcorn movies, it's already above the standard.

As a result, Warner brothers lost more than 150 million dollars.

So can the box office potential of gravity be fully released in autumn? Or does gravity have the box office potential that everyone expects?

On Friday, October 4, "gravity" was officially released; On the same day, there was another blockbuster film, "reverse trump.".

When it comes to "reversal trump", we have to mention Ben Affleck.

At the beginning of this year, the counter attack of "escape from Tehran" on the Oscar ceremony triggered numerous topics. Alfred, who has been in the doldrums for many years, has completed the feat of salted fish turning over at one stroke, and all kinds of invitation have come back to the table after a lot of hardships.

On the one hand, Affleck is preparing his next directing work; On the other hand, the actor career has also reopened. After Kevin Fu took over the position of CEO of Warner Bros., there are even rumors in the industry that he hopes Affleck can play Batman, which is Kevin's olive branch to Affleck——

As we all know, without Jeff robinov, there would be no Ben Affleck. So far, all of Alfred's three directing works have a direct relationship with Robin, even Robin takes his career as a guarantee to open the way for Alfred. But now that Warner Bros. has changed, Affleck has to make his own choice.

Of course, Kevin chose Affleck not only because of Robin, but also because he thinks Affleck is the best choice for Batman. It's much more reliable than the Langley that Barry Meyer considered.

However, the rumors are still rumors for the time being, and there is no flurry in the industry to prove it, let alone implement it.

Back to the project of "reverse trump", this work is a collaboration between Ben Affleck and Brian Koppelman and David Levien, members of the Boston Gang where Matt Damon works.

Brian and David are screenwriters, actors, producers and directors, but their main work is screenwriting. They have cooperated with Affleck and Matt in "king of gamblers", "Thirteen Arhats" and other works. They can only be regarded as playwrights with mediocre ability in the industry. However, with the help of "Boston Gang", they can always find projects, The same is true of "reverse trump.".

Inspired by the classic poker movie "decisive 21", the movie tells a deceptive story about Texas Hold'em. Unfortunately, the script project didn't get much attention. In the end, it relied on Alfred's matchmaking. 20th century fox was willing to invest 30 million dollars and build the entire crew.

Brad Furman was chosen as the director. At present, he only made one "lawyer Lincoln" the year before last, which is his second time as a director; But the cast relied on the name of Affleck to find Justin Timberlake, Gemma Arterton and Anthony Mackie.

In short, this is a work in which Fox and Affleck have a good relationship in the 20th century. The main purpose is to make Affleck handsome and enjoy the aura of actors again.

However, in the early stage of the 20th century, fox worked very hard and allocated a lot of resources. Although the investment cost was only US $30 million, there were 3100 theaters, which can be said to be the same order of magnitude as gravity; Moreover, the film company has arranged a lot of itinerary activities in terms of publicity, especially when Justin Timberlake is also the leading actor, they have really rubbed a lot of hot spots of Langley.

It's a pity that the film's public praise has completely hit the streets.

The overall score of the media is 36 points, the fresh index of rotten tomatoes is only 8%, and the score of mass media is 4 points. Alfred is totally occupied. Once again, he is scolded bloody. Almost everyone thinks that he should stick to the work of director and give up the challenge of actor, because he is really a very bad actor

However, even in such a situation, no one can predict the box office opening of "reversal trump card". After all, at this year's Academy Awards ceremony, he is absolutely in the limelight and has returned to the peak of the discussion focus.

What's more, "reverse trump" and "gravity" are two different types of films. So how will the box office market choose? Although no one cared about the duel, it was inevitable!
