Saturday.
"... out, out! Ah, ah! 100 million! It really broke through 100 million! God, this is happening! This is really happening! "
"What? Is it a box office on Friday? Do you have a box office on Friday
"100 million! Jesus Christ
"Wait, how much? What is the specific figure? Where's the news? Is that true? "
"Twitter has come out, Twitter has come out official news, 100 million! 104 million! "
"Ah, ah
The hustle and bustle of shouts spread in the waiting hall of the Royal cinema in West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and then spread through the crowd. The long queue began to get excited. The boiling heat wave eclipsed the bright June sunshine outside.
From Friday to Saturday, the upsurge of watching movies is still not significantly weakened. Instead, we can see more audience gathering in the downtown areas.
But the difference is that the audience on Friday is obviously dominated by young people. In other words, students who don't need to work, young netizens who like Langley or pay attention to "Jurassic world" because of the twitter craze occupy the majority - after all, Don Quixote is not a student.
On Saturday, the audience was mainly Don Quixote and loyal fans of "Jurassic Park". The number of middle-aged and young office workers increased significantly, which was the real main force of watching the film. No matter whether there was a twitter craze or not, they would undoubtedly go to the cinema to watch the work.
Compared with the bustle on Friday, Saturday is even more crazy. Just standing in the team, you can feel the happiness and joy from the inside out——
Exchanging interesting things about lanli and talking about "Jurassic Park", the common feelings between fans produce a chemical reaction.
Since yesterday afternoon, lanli fans and fans of the original series have been paying close attention to the box office trend. The analysis of different opinions on the social network is flying in the sky. The whole expected threshold has risen from 60 million to 100 million in a single day, and the whole network has exploded.
As of June 2015, the box office record of North American film history has reached a new height.
The record for the premiere weekend, held by Avengers, was $207 million over three days; Second was Avengers 2, with $191 million for three days over the weekend.
The highest single day box office record, held by "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 2)", was $91 million on the official opening day“ "Avengers" followed with a single day box office of $80 million.
Once those people believed that absolutely impossible things, but with the advance of time is gradually evolving into reality. Although the factor of inflation must be taken into account, the box office figures and the continuous development of market potential can still bring a steady stream of surprises.
Even so, some things are still like the Arabian Nights, "it seems impossible to achieve", for example, a single day box office broke 100 million.
So far, there are only 30 films with a total box office of over 100 million at the premiere weekend of North American film history. In the long history, only 30 films can reach such a high level.
The experience of last year's summer camp is still fresh in my mind. I was waiting for the first work with a box office of more than 100 million at the weekend, but I was absent for a long time. Until the end of July, "Transformers 4" achieved the record with the gesture of a sidekick, avoiding the crisis that the North American summer camp became a joke.
This is not a distant history half a century ago, but what happened in last year's summer season. In addition, the unveiling work "Avengers Alliance 2" of this year's summer season is lower than expected. It seems that all kinds of signs show that the era of box office breaking 100 million a day is still early, and the time is not yet ripe.
Therefore, the rumor that the box office of "Jurassic world" will exceed 100 million in a single day is not like a kind of "prediction or comment", but more like a joke of speculators. It's just relying on the hot spots of this news frenzy to win a place, without enough evidence and theoretical support. If you laugh, you will forget it.
Not to mention that the box office in a single day has exceeded 100 million, even the previous discussion of "Entertainment Weekly" on the possibility of "breaking 200 million at the weekend box office" is like a conspiracy——
After all, there is only one "Avengers alliance" that can reach such a high level at present.
Twitter.
bustling.
groan and moan.
Countless discussions are spreading from the Internet to the reality. Don Quixote and Jurassic fans are also joining in the discussion. They can't wait to express their views. On the one hand, they strongly deny the possibility, on the other hand, they can't help looking forward to it.
Immersed in such contradictory emotions, the restlessness becomes more and more turbulent, so that the mood of waiting in line becomes strange.
Compared with the movie watching frenzy on Friday, it can be clearly observed that the heat wave on Saturday has dropped, mainly because the passenger flow in remote areas has begun to drop significantly. However, the Carnival Party in busy areas is far from over, and the audience has become more and more concentrated, creating a second wave of frenzy.
There has been no shortening of the queue, all the tickets sold out in the morning, and the sales speed of the afternoon and midnight shows has not slowed down... There are even fans who come specially to buy tickets for Sunday, as well as fans who can't wait to come for the second brush or even the third brush.
All kinds of signs are showing that the upsurge of watching movies is still going on.
"How much is the box office on Friday?"
This is undoubtedly a hot topic for all movie fans, even more than the film itself and the charm of Langley and other topics, gathering countless expectations.
Until now.
"The first one-day box office hit 100 million in the history of North American films is on the stage!"
"Hollywood Reporter" confirmed it as an authoritative news, and "Jurassic world" set a historical record, surpassing "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 2)" and "Avengers alliance", becoming the first one in the film's 100 year history that the box office of a single day can exceed 100 million!
"Record, birth!"
"The king ascends to the top!"
"100 million in a single day!"
The whole social network has been occupied by hot news, extending from the film industry to the entire entertainment industry, cultural industry and even the sports industry and economic industry. All the major social network accounts have come to the attention, because of the shock, but also because of the unexpected.
"Langley hall!"
There is no need for more explanation or too much embellishment. Just one name is enough, "time's official twitter said
Lanli once again dominates North America with an undisputed strong performance, sweeping the big screen, and with an incredible attitude, officially declares that the North American film market has entered the era of "100 million a day", writing a new history. Perhaps, some people will say that this is the dinosaur's credit; But it's absolutely impossible without Langley.
Looking back on what happened yesterday, Fox TV recorded the moment of making history with a God's perspective of "overlooking North America".
Later, the Clever Fox TV station edited a documentary film with news materials, "breaking 100 million in a single day", which was broadcasted on the TV station and gained a lot of support and affirmation from the audience. From the side, we can see the shock and far-reaching influence brought by the new era of North American film market.
In 2002, "Spider Man" became the first work in history with a weekend box office exceeding 100 million, officially declaring that the North American film market has entered a new era. In just 13 years, a total of 30 works have reached such a high level, with an average annual growth rate of more than two, witnessing a brilliant period.
In 2015, "Jurassic world" became the first work in history with a single day box office exceeding 100 million, which will also be the beginning of a new era.
From 100 million on weekends to 100 million on a single day, the hardships and difficulties behind them are far more arduous than the gap shown by the figures.
But in the end, "Jurassic world" accomplished such a feat, which also became a grand festival for Don Quixote and Jurassic fans to celebrate together.
"... Er, when is the closest one to the present time? Four fifteen in the afternoon? OK, let's do this one. Give me two tickets. Although there are still five hours left, I think I can find something to do. The Carnival Party has just started. There's no need to be so anxious. "
In the cinema, the fans read the news from the smart phone, and then they cheer and celebrate. Even if they have to wait in line to watch the movie, the long waiting time seems not so hard. Even "waiting" can become a kind of happiness torture.
The cinema is just the tip of the iceberg. On the social network, the "cloud watching" netizens who "have not watched the movie at all, but just to join in the fun" are more lively and crazy, just like they have really done their part to create history, shouting.
Even more fanatical than real fans.
The boiling heat wave continued to rise, and Universal Pictures quietly continued to add fuel to the flames behind it. We are totally happy with such a scene. We hope that "Jurassic world" can further open up the situation with such a momentum, and truly create a glorious and sensational historical record.
So what's the box office performance on Saturday?
It can be predicted that the box office on Friday has just created the history of North America, and it has also increased a lot compared with the original record, so the box office on Saturday will inevitably fall, and the decline is an inevitable rule; But the question is, how much is the decline? That's the key, even more than Friday's record.
As a reference, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (next)", after setting a one-day box office record on Friday, the box office fell by 53% on Saturday, with only 169 million at the final premiere weekend“ The Avengers' one-day box office on Friday was no exaggeration, but only 14% on Saturday. Then the film became the creator of the first weekend movie in film history with 200 million yuan.
Now, it's Jurassic world's turn - is it Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (2)? Or the Avengers?
One day box office on Saturday, 69 million dollars!
