The head-to-head confrontation between Evan Bell and Will Smith, and the direct confrontation between "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Jedi Men 2" has made the already hot summer market hotter than the table, and almost everyone is paying attention to North America this week. The winner of the box office chart belongs.

It stands to reason that "Pirates of the Caribbean" is already in its third week of release, and its box office endurance has begun to decline; "Jedi Men 2" has a strong appeal in the first week of its release. In addition, "Pirates of the Caribbean" led by Evan Bell alone is difficult to fight against Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, not to mention that "Jedi Men 2" is still a sequel, with the reputation of the first episode, the box office in the first week is bound to be Strong, then the box office ability will depend on the reputation of the sequel.

So, the success of "Jedi Boys 2" is almost a certainty - other book lovers are watching:!

Under the battle between Evan Bell and Will Smith, the comedy and funny movie "Agent Bean" and the youth school comedy "Thousands of Minds" starring Mandy Moore suddenly became irrelevant and no one paid attention. .

When the box office charts for the fourth week of July came out, it instantly caught everyone's attention. "Jedi Men 2" under the menacing pressure of Captain Jack Sparrow, won a strong box office of 66 million US dollars; and "Pirates of the Caribbean" led by the infinite charm of Captain Jack Sparrow Next, a Jedi counterattack was launched. The rebound of the box office shocked everyone. The box office of 56 million US dollars increased by a full 55%!

Although "Jedi Men 2" finally beat "Pirates of the Caribbean" to win the North American box office chart this week, all the media were almost speechless. "Pirates of the Caribbean" exploded in astonishing gains, making Will Smith's win seem trivial. Although there are still media comments. "Will Smith's victory reaffirmed his unparalleled appeal at the box office." But in the face of Evan Bell's amazing catch-up, the victory looked a bit tragic.

Even the "premier". It's impossible to shout "great victory" for this victory. The difference of ten million dollars is almost insignificant in the face of the comparison of "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Jedi Men 2".

"Pirates of the Caribbean" has shown such a strong rebound after a slump at the box office last week. Keep all the professionals shut up. With an increase of 55%, the cumulative box office is 180 million US dollars, and the threshold of 200 million mén is already close at hand.

Did Will Smith win? Won. However, no one dared to say that Evan Bell lost. The topic of whether Evan Bell can be compared with Will Smith can temporarily come to an end, because Evan Bell has confirmed with actual results that maybe his background is not as deep as Will Smith, but his audience is definitely not weak.

The result of this direct confrontation is. A small part of the media seems to be a little less interested: because Evan Bell has deflated them again. Most of the media exclaimed that Evan Bell, with the infinite charm of Captain Jack Sparrow, began to flourish in the film market.

In this case, Disney adds to the competition. "Pirates of the Caribbean" is definitely getting a sequel, they announced. In fact, they thought about this possibility long before the movie was released, so the name of the movie was added with a suffix and became "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl". Now that Disney has announced a sequel, all it takes is a little suffix change.

Captain Jack Sparrow fans are thrilled with the news that Disney has announced the start of a sequel. Although the movie is still in theaters, everyone can't wait to see the enchanting captain embark on a new journey. but. Shooting a sequel wasn't easy.

Look at the current situation of the three leading actors: Keira Knightley became popular overnight, and she has been determined to become the nv protagonist of the epic blockbuster "King Arthur". This latest film by Jerry Bruckheimer brought this English rose to the account early, and it is estimated that there will be no schedule within a year; Mu is even more busy. The cooperation with Brad Pitt in "Troy" has already started. After that, he will continue to shoot "The Lord of the Rings 3", and he has no time; The time has been booked, and the script in the hands of David Greenblatt is more than 30, not to mention there are countless songs that are eagerly awaiting his return.

Therefore, although Disney announced that it will definitely start shooting a sequel, it is estimated that it will be difficult to achieve in the short term.

However, at this time, the media are discussing how high the "Pirates of the Caribbean" box office can finally reach after breaking through 200 million? More importantly, the competition between "Jedi Boys 2" and "Pirates of the Caribbean" has just ended the first round, and there are countless contests after that. How will the final cumulative box office of "Jedi Boys 2" surpass that of "Pirates of the Caribbean"? "?

There is also a box office of "Jedi Men 2" that can exceed 200 million. You must know that although Will Smith has over 100 million at the box office, he has not exceeded the threshold of 200 million at the box office for several years. Last year, he had high hopes. "Men in Black 2" finally fell before the threshold of 200 million mén, putting Will Smith in an embarrassing situation. The investment of "Jedi Men 2" is 130 million, which is almost the same as the cost of "Pirates of the Caribbean" with an investment of 140 million. The final box office competition between the two is bound to be followed by the media.

In this situation, the rankings of movies such as "The Beasts", "The Beanstalker", and "Terminator 3" are insignificant, not to mention the third-ranked "The Beasts" this week's box office Only 15 million, really shabby-good novel:. Not to mention "Terminator 3", which has plummeted at the box office. With an investment of $200 million, the cumulative box office is now only $130 million. The fact that Arnold Schwarzenegger has completely declined, the media has no time to sigh, and not many people even pay attention to it. After all, the competition between Evan Bell and Will Smith can be described as a battle between dragons and tigers, and it is extremely brilliant.

In the next week, the latest three works to join the summer season will bring this year's summer season to the **: the first two episodes of "Very Little Spy 3", which have been a huge success at the box office, are directed by veteran actor Jeff Bridges. , "Spider-Man" Tony Maguire's "Pentium Age", and Angelina - Jolie's "Tomb Raider 2", are bound to make the competition in the box office rankings more intense.

When the week was over and all box office tallies were done, the media saw such a series of numbers on the North American box office charts for the last week of July. The winning film was $50 million at the box office. The runner-up was only one million behind, with $49 million in second place. Although the third place was $32 million, it was a lot, but it lacked competitiveness. The subsequent 31.5 million, 31.3 million fourth and fifth place, the competition is particularly cruel, the gap is only 200,000 US dollars.

Then move your eyes from the numbers to the title of the work, and the champion position is "Pirates of the Caribbean"! The third week of the summer season to win the championship! This achievement is enough to laugh at the summer of 2003! No one thought that a "Pirates of the Caribbean", a Captain Jack Sparrow, could create such a good result!

Leaving aside other things, "Pirates of the Caribbean" was still able to win $50 million at the box office in the fourth week of its release, which was quite shocking in itself, and it was only a 5% drop compared to last week. No matter which data comes out, it is amazing.

The success of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is mainly due to the success of Captain Jack Sparrow, and Evan Bell's interpretation is considered unique. Overnight, it is true that there is only one Evan Bell in the United States, whether it is topic, word of mouth, or momentum and prestige. Evan Bell almost relied on the role of Captain Jack Sparrow to become a king overnight!

At present, "Pirates of the Caribbean" has not only had the last laugh in the second week of the contest with "Jedi Men 2", and successfully won the third weekly championship of this summer's season, but its cumulative box office has also reached 240 million At this speed, it is not impossible to hit the threshold of 300 million mén! Shock 300 million? This may mean challenging the current hegemony of "Finding Nemo".

However, for Disney, especially for Michael Inas, this situation can definitely wake up laughing from sleep - "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Finding Nemo" are both works produced by Disney. Not only did "Pirates of the Caribbean" not get Disney into a quagmire, it also gave Michael Inas more confidence in front of Steve Jobs. This summer, Disney successfully captured the attention of all media with these two films.

"Pirates of the Caribbean" won the North American box office chart in the fourth week, which means that Evan Bell stepped on Will Smith's shoulders and achieved a complete victory among the two front-ends.

Under "Pirates of the Caribbean" the runner-up position belongs to "Very Little Agent 3", and "Jedi Men 2" is only the third place, which is 32 million US dollars. It seems that Will Smith really lost badly. The total box office of "Jedi Men 2" is only 98 million. There is no problem with over 100 million, but 200 million is basically impossible. In this case, the gap between "Pentium Age" and "Tomb Raider 2" is only $200,000, and it is not news that it is entangled in the box office charts.

The next day, the news of "Evan Bell stepping on Will Smith's shoulders" was everywhere in the major media. The great success of "Pirates of the Caribbean" in word of mouth and at the box office made Evan Bell one of the top actors overnight. With Evan Bell's current momentum, he shouted, and it is estimated that more than half of the people in the United States will give response, and the overwhelming majority of those who cheered and supported it.

After a roller coaster ride in 2002, into 2003, Evan Bell started the journey of becoming king with a terrifying momentum.
