Chapter 905： Fight against the heroes

\"&　　 Standing at a height twenty years later, looking back at history, "The Lion King\" is an irreplaceable work in Disney’s history. This work has pushed the artistic quality of cartoons to an incredible height. Evolving cartoons into one of the most profitable genres in the North American film market, and at the same time making cartoons have a strong fighting capacity in the Oscar competition, and directly spawned the best animated feature film and the best animated short film a few years later. The birth of the two little golden men then led to the gradual rise of the entire animation market.

In 2014, many outstanding animation studios such as Pixar, Lighting Entertainment, DreamWorks and Disney formed a fierce confrontation with Disney, making animation a member of the North American film market that cannot be ignored every year.

This shows the historical status of the "Lion King\".

In 1994, this history remained unchanged. Even the "\"'s performance against the sky, even the influence of the little butterfly Hugo, could not shake this historical trajectory.

The "Lion King" screened in two thousand five hundred and fifty theaters easily won a box office of 40.88 million U.S. dollars. Since last week's screening was the premiere weekend, the "Lion King\" has become This is the first work in history with a box office of over 40 million U.S. dollars in the second weekend, and with such sturdy historical data, it reached the top in the fourth week of June, and the "\" three consecutive championships officially came to an end.

Such a result can be said to be without suspense. "The Lion King\"'s victory is completely expected, and "\"'s three consecutive championships are already an incredible miracle. However, in the face of the "Lion King\" 40 million box office, the performance of "Life and Death Speed" is the most watched!

Under the huge impact, "\" handed over a 10% drop answer sheet, allowing the entire North American film market, even in the face of the "Lion King", the performance of "Life and Death" is still so strong, this is what It was a result that really shocked everyone.

Not a "wolf", not a "", but a "Lion King". The huge oppression brought by the 40 million-level weekend box office actually only caused the "\" to lose 10% of the box office and hand over two thousand three. With a million-dollar box office, this achievement cannot express the inner shock and surprise with any words of praise.

There is no doubt that this is the so-called phenomenon-level performance, and this is the real dark horse!

For the fourth consecutive week, the box office exceeded 20 million at the weekend, which also made "\"Officially surpass"" and became the only work in film history to achieve such a result. Naturally, the box office of the fourth week of "Life and Death Speed" was also Ranked first in film history.

In just four weeks and one month, "\" completed the triple jump, with outstanding results every week, breaking a series of magical records, and bringing his cumulative box office to 140 million U.S. dollars, a strong surpassing " \"The box office data of 133 million US dollars in the same period, as long as the "speed of life and death\" can persist in this way, there is no doubt about the new history of sword making.

In the fourth week of June, "The Lion King", "\" and "Wolf\" respectively occupied the top three spots in the North American weekend box office rankings.

Interestingly, this week there is also a high-profile "law enforcement Titans (wyatt.earp released this week, this work invested 63 million, by Kevin Costner and Dennis Quaid, Ji The starring En-Hackerman is a menacing man, but he was completely submerged in the frenzy of "\" and "The Lion King\", and only handed over 7.5 million US dollars in the premiere box office to make Warner Bros. Karma breathed a sigh of boredom, but couldn't vent at all.

In the first week of July, the release of "The Phantom (the., "Zero Blasting (.away, and "I Love Trouble (i...)\" failed to create enough waves. Ya The three big-name works led by Lecce Baldwin (.), Jeff Bridges (jeff.) and Julia Roberts formed a melee, but the chaos expected by the media did not appear.

"The Lion King\" undoubtedly won the championship with a box office of 34 million U.S. dollars. "\" In the face of the huge impact, the strong performance finally declined, but the 28% drop is still eye-catching. I won a box office of 16 million US dollars over the weekend and easily continued to stay in the runner-up position. This data is also the first in film history at the box office of the fifth week, and it is half a million US dollars more than the result of "\" in the same period.

Among the three new works, only the "Phantom Hero\" barely passed the score, and the 12 million data put it in the third place.

Obviously, the astonishing performance of "\" has gradually lost its "surprise" and has gradually been accepted by people. This film has brought its cumulative box office to 160 million U.S. dollars within five weeks of its release. The "dark horse\" Ci is no longer suitable. This is an absolutely domineering masterpiece. When to break the 200 million threshold and when to surpass "\" is the focus of discussion.

With the advancement of the summer vacation, people gradually came to understand a fact: 1994 was a classic year.

"\" is still strong, "Lion King\" is not to be outdone, followed by "Forrest Gump" debut, followed by "True Lies", then "Ghosts in Disguise", and finally "Burning Eyebrows" Pursue”, there is no time to rest during the entire summer, and I will appear on stage after you sing, wonderful round after round.

When "Forrest Gump" premiered in the second week of July, the results can only be said to be good, and it did not reach the level of amazing. The score of 24.45 million, narrowly defeated the "Lion King\" 25,000. The tiny data of the US dollar has won the North American weekend box office championship, shattering the "Lion King's" dream of three consecutive championships. And then "Forrest Gump" in the next week, although it surrendered a 1.3% drop against the sky, astonishing the entire North American market, it was still taken away by the "true lies" and the performance was fundamentally better. Not as strong as "" and "Lion King\".

But unexpectedly, this work became more and more courageous in the next battle, and returned to the championship four times before and after the summer, and before the end of the summer vacation, it easily crossed the 200 million threshold of its cumulative box office, and it was incredible. Two hundred and twenty million dollars, the strength of this work directly pushed Tom Hanks, who had just won the Oscar winner in March, to the pinnacle of his career.

However, compared to the myth of "Forrest Gump\", "True Lies\" powerful impact, and "Gump in Disguise\" the uncompromising dark horse quality, "\" This movie only invested 28 million U.S. dollars. The magical journey of small cost production runs through the entire summer file, witnessing the debut of various classic works, but still relying on a strong reputation to stick to it, this is the most sighing part.

Faced with "Forrest Gump" in the sixth week, surrendered a 33% drop. In the seventh week, faced with "True Lies" again with a 29% drop that fell below everyone’s eyes. When facing the "Ultimate Witness" in the eighth week, the surprise continued with a 23% drop...

It can be said that "\" proved itself with excellent performance time and time again. After the test of time, the classic name of "speed of life and death" was truly recognized, and it became the classic of 1999 together with "true lies." The masterpieces of action movies gathered in this collection will always remain in the long river of history.

Relying on such a strong performance, "\" officially passed the 200 million threshold in the fifth week of July, and broke the historical record of "\" with a score of 206 million, officially becoming the box office champion of action movies. The title is in the bag.

"\" has not only become Hugo's fourth consecutive box office work exceeding 100 million yuan, but also the second consecutive Hugo work that has passed the 200 million box office threshold.

In fact, strictly speaking, "Schindler's list\" only broke through the 200 million threshold in early August 1994. That is to say, "\" was the first to reach this result, which caused an uproar in the media, but the following week , "Schindler's list\" went on to create a miracle with the sword. The two works led by Hugo have won the box office of 200 million U.S. dollars. This is definitely a sensational achievement for the North American film market.

If you need to distinguish more in detail, then Hugo in "Schindler's list" is only a supporting role, and "\" is the real Hugo starring work, which also makes those about "Hugo's personal box office call" Li\" The voice of questioning shut up in an instant. Hugo did not rely on the cooperation of big-name actors or the call of big-name directors. Through the work "Speed ​​of Life and Death", he proved himself, proved his excellence, proved His appeal.

"", Hugo has a historical milestone in his career In 1994, what does 200 million box office mean? In fact, it was not only 1994, even in 2014, 20 years later, 200 million box office It all means incredible achievements. Although the number of works that achieved this achievement in 2014 has far exceeded one hundred, and there are even more outstanding and stronger results, but being able to achieve 200 million box office still means top box office superstars, only a few Only a group of actors are fortunate enough to be members of the 200 million box office club.

However, in 1994, the 200 million box office was obviously more difficult. So far only 16 works have achieved 200 million US dollars in the North American box office. On this list, "Alien e.t\" temporarily With a result of 399.8 million U.S. dollars, it ranked first in the film history box office. The runner-up was the "" who achieved incredible results last year. Together with the third-ranked "Star Wars", this was the only place before 1994. There are three works that have passed the 300 million threshold at the box office.

Therefore, under the current circumstances, the box office of 200 million US dollars is undoubtedly the top star, and its box office appeal is unquestionable. Now, the two works of "\" and "Schindler's List\" will also be added one after another. This club, in one sentence, made Hugo an actor with two 200 million U.S. dollars at the box office, and its strong momentum is unmatched. (To be continued [provided].
