Chapter 1689： Stunning

Congratulations to the Demon Prison Elf for becoming the leader of this book, Sahua! Today, ten more are sent to express my thanks, huh, huh! First update today!

Evan Bell's works seem to have the potential to create miracles during the screening period, such as "adaptation of the script", such as "Little Sunshine", which are all works that have created box office records for single screenings. In fact, in the final analysis, it is because Evan Bell's works are small and can always be very enthusiastically sought after in a small range; of course, when the works are shown on a large scale, they can always obtain a good reputation. As for the box office , that is the choice of the audience.

This time, "Wild Survival" also undoubtedly continued Evan Bell's superhuman record-breaking ability during the screening period. The single museum's $81,000 score is actually not as good as the "Adapted Script". 20,000, even less than the 170,000 of "Brokeback Mountain". Even if it is a certain distance from the figure of 87,000 dollars for a single hall when "Little Sunshine" was released in 200 theaters, this result is in the real world. The film's single-hall box office history ranking can be strong among the top ten, ranking eighth, this result is enough to explain the excellent performance of "Wild Survival".

No wonder others say that Evan Bell's ability to refresh his performance during the screening period is very strong. Currently, on the screening performance rankings, the four works of "Brokeback Mountain", "Adaptation", "Little Sunshine" and "Wild Survival" are all In the top ten, this kind of strong appeal in the niche and in the art theater chain, Evan Bell definitely ranks first in the United States, and no one can compare it.

The single-house box office of $81,000 was released in four theaters, and the opening weekend of "Wild Survival" was $324,000, which only ranked 20th in the North American box office chart in the third week of September. Eight, after "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix", on which the names of "Ratatouille" and "High School Musical 2" can still be seen.

But even so, "Wild Survival" easily grabbed all the media's attention, not least because it was Evan Bell's work. Not only because the Toronto Film Festival is very popular for it, but also because of its single-hall box office results that amaze everyone. The single-tube box office of "Wild Survival" is naturally the undisputed winner of the week!

"Resident Evil 3: Extinction" won the championship this week with a box office score of 23 million US dollars. Unfortunately, the single hall box office score was only 8,300 US dollars, and the comprehensive score of the media was 43 points. It is really hopeless; The runner-up was "Lucky Cook" starring Jessica Alba. The box office of $14 million is quite extraordinary for such a low-cost romantic comedy, but unfortunately, the overall media score is only 20, and the freshness of Rotten Tomatoes is only 100%. The third; In addition, the "Brave" starring Jodie Foster in the second week of release, won the third place. The premiere of "Freshman," which only received $5.2 million, was a dismal result.

As for the three works that have been screened, Brad Pitt's "Assassination of Gunslinger" has a comprehensive media score of 68. The freshness rating on Rotten Tomatoes is 69%, which can only be regarded as quite satisfactory. The box office of a single venue is 29,000 US dollars, which is not up to expectations. And the box office of "Austin Book Club" is only a disappointing $6,000, and the comprehensive score of the media is only 63 points, which is really a disappointing result.

Without a doubt, "Wild Survival" was the best performer, with an $81,000 single-hall box office in sight. And the comments of the American media also continued the trend of Toronto, and the praise prevailed!

"The characters communicate and communicate with the audience's soul, which makes the work full of infinite resonance", "The skill of character characterization is outstanding. It is concise and accessible without leaving traces", "The meticulous script composition, the wanton elegance of imagination, Poetry-like picture", "perfectly reproduce the majesty and horror of the wilderness", "Evan Bell's feat in the director position again", "Evan Bell's body language, facial expressions, language features are full of The indescribable charm makes people sink.”  …

Especially from the "New Yorker" comment, "Such a story can easily be crafted and didactic. It seems to have countless gods and countless yearnings, as if to tell people that this is the right thing to do. But Egypt Vin-Bell avoided this disaster and continued his silent and unmarked expression of thoughts in the 'mysterious skin', bringing people to reflect, and everyone can derive different ideas from looking at Christopher. Maybe , after the precipitation of time. We will have a deeper understanding of the field of this story."

In the end, the comprehensive media score reached 78 points, which is basically consistent with the first batch of comments in Toronto; while the freshness of Rotten Tomatoes has dropped significantly, but 89% can still see that people are very concerned about " Wilderness Survival". As for the IMDB scoring system, the current score remains at 7.7, and the score is also very good.

Still, the only thing that critics, both for and against the film, "Survival in the Wild," are unanimous. "Evan Bell once again presented a masterpiece in terms of director, screenwriter and actor, and people are looking forward to the awards season!"

It can be felt that although "Wild Survival" has sparked heated discussions in terms of values ​​and worldviews, the overall situation is better than last year's "Perfume", and the overall evaluation also continues Evan Bell. Consistent momentum, this is a start to be celebrated.

Then in the fourth week of September, Disney's "Game Plan" successfully won the championship under the leadership of Dwayne Johnson, and Universal Pictures' "Dynastic Change" was led by the former Oscar winner Jamie Foxx, but it was only regrettable. runner up. However, the North American box office charts and "Wild Survival" don't actually have much to do, even if Eleven's two competitors are fighting to the death.

This week, "Wild Survival" will increase the number of theaters to 30, and the box office of the single venue is still good. The figure of 43,000 US dollars brings the box office of the three-day weekend to 1,290,000 US dollars. It grossed $1.7 million at the box office in two weeks. The second week's screening results were still outstanding, with $43,000 still leading the pack in the single-hall box office charts. This result made "Wild Survival" rise to the 16th place in the North American box office rankings, beating "Transformers", and it performed very well.

This week's "Wild Survival" results have sparked many people's hopes for this work to achieve good results in the awards season. Even if such a brilliant independent work is not necessarily the favorite of the Oscar route, it is still not Influence people's pursuit of it, but this week's real focus is another work, "Lust and Caution" from Ang Lee.

The work "Lust and Caution" won the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival, but it was controversial. This is Li Ann's latest work after ending "Brokeback Mountain", and Evan Bell has long praised the heroine Tang Wei, which has attracted the attention of the North American film market.

After the release of "sè, quit" in North America, it was exactly the same as last year's "Perfume", which triggered a comprehensive media campaign of mixed praise. This situation started from Venice in Europe and spread to the North American market, which can be said to have triggered discussions on the seismic level. You know, Li Ann's original "Brokeback Mountain" made a lot of history, especially the perfect combination of Evan Bell opened a new page in Hollywood history. This time Li Ann attacked again naturally a lot of attention. . But unfortunately, in terms of the director's position, the public opinion generally believes that Li Ann has not been able to surpass the classics of "Brokeback Mountain" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", let alone the first time on the screen. "Brokeback Mountain" has four standout actors on a par.

The heated discussion of "Lust and Caution" even spread to Evan Bell, who was still filming in Chicago. This topic was also mentioned several times during the reporter's interview, and Evan Bell always expressed his firmness to Lee Ann. At the same time, he still did not reduce his love for Tang Wei, a rookie actor. Such an answer obviously disappointed the media reporters.

After entering October, the atmosphere of the awards season's outpost suddenly became strong. George Clooney and Steven Soderbergh launched "Michael Clayton" almost overnight to become the new Oscar seed. player. Fifteen theatrical films, a single-house box office of $47,000, and a comprehensive media score of 82 points88% freshness on Rotten Tomatoes, all of which indicate that this The great popularity of the work.

Works such as "Michael Clayton", "Tower Killing", "Wild Survival", "Lust, Caution" and other works appeared in the North American box office charts at the same time, which also made people quietly realize that another year of awards season is quietly approaching .

This week's "Lust and Caution" has achieved good results after its expansion, and "Wild Survival" has been further expanded. It was released in 100 theaters at the same time, and grabbed 100 with a sturdy figure of 19,000 US dollars for a single venue. With a box office of 900,000 US dollars, the weekend box office has maintained a growth momentum for three consecutive weeks, and the cumulative box office has reached the water level of 3.8 million US dollars, which is a very good performance. The position on the North American box office rankings has further risen to the thirteenth, which is within reach of the top ten.

It can be seen from the distribution strategy for the first three weeks of "Wild Survival" that the eleventh issue this time is to expand the screening step by step, develop steadily, and gradually expand its influence. In the past three weeks, the box office performance of the single venue was almost sky-high. For three consecutive weeks, the box office of the single venue exceeded 10,000 US dollars. This is really an amazing report card. The distance to awards season is shrinking little by little.

In addition, it is currently showing in 100 theaters in three weeks, and the cumulative box office is close to 4 million US dollars. With the support rate of a beautiful single venue, compared with the investment of 10 million US dollars, the goal of revenue is finally achieved again. Not a problem.

I sincerely thank the elves for their reward and support. Wow, hehe, the leader is indeed V5, oh yeah! (To be continued. If you like this work,.)
