Surprise, surprise, or surprise!
Just as people thought that the box office data of "gravity" had far exceeded expectations and broke all conjectures and predictions with an absolutely strong performance, the surprise came again, breaking people's expectations after adjustments, which once again triggered a burst of exclamations and surprises.
Saturday's single-day box office fell by only 10%! Such performance is almost comparable to the 13% decline data obtained by the "Avengers" during the same period last year's premiere weekend. It was so amazing that it suffered a critical hit of 100,000 points. Because it was so frightened that they began to shut their mouths and were dumbfounded!
On Friday, 55 million. "Georgeous" broke the highest weekend box office record in the fall with its premiere single-day box office data.
On Saturday, 49.5 million. The next-day box office data of "Georgeous" can rank third in the box office history list for the autumn weekend, second only to "Smart: Ghost Record 3" and "Idiot Funny Show 3d".
For two consecutive single-day box office data, "gravity" broke all the records of North American film history with a devastating attitude, and completely changed the rules and structure of the entire film market with an absolutely strong and absolutely crazy attitude. Even in the summer season, such data is enough to be among the top 20 film history, let alone in the autumn season?
It's really too tough!
For a moment, people couldn't help but feel confused. Now it's certain it's not July?
What's even more absurd is that major news media have just adjusted their box office forecast numbers. Now, after Saturday's single-day box office data is released, they have to adjust their forecasts for the second time in a short period of time. Even Warner Bros. itself seems a little busy. The previous forecast is far lower than expected. The unexpected surprises are too surging and too violent, so they are at a loss.
Adjusted from 50 million to 90 million, and then to the latest forecast of 120 million. Within just 48 hours, the market insiders' box office estimates for the premiere of "gravity" have undergone earth-shaking changes, and they have truly doubled. From the impactor of the premiere record of the autumn film to the destroyer of the North American film market, the change of this role is really too brave!
To this end, the "New Yorker" wrote an article specifically about a Saturday night in October.
The writer described an ordinary Saturday night as a participant. According to previous years, the autumn Manhattan night is a drama, bar, and four major sports leagues. Only a very small part belongs to the cinema, but this time there is an exception.
"After living in New York for thirty years, I finally encountered something unheard of. In order to buy two 'gravity' late-game movie tickets, my friends and I visited seven movie theaters in Manhattan one after another. From 6pm to 9:30pm, we walked all over the city like Holden.
It wasn't until we were hungry that we finally bought two movie tickets at 10:45 p.m. in a small theater in Greenwich Village. But I couldn't tell whether it was because the theater was deviant enough and the traffic was too small, or because we chose tickets for the near-midnight venue. However, I can at least be sure that we don't need to stay at the Edmond Hotel tonight."
This article is told through Jerome David Sailinger's famous "Watchman in the Rye" style and strokes. He tells himself in the first person, just like the protagonist Holden, who is walking around in New York City, trying to find an exit with his eyes and feet - the Edmund Hotel is the place where Holden lived on his first night.
The article is indeed the usual style and characteristics of the "New Yorker".
Through the perspective of this writer, people can clearly feel the movie viewing frenzy on Saturday, and the scenes are full. This is definitely not an exaggerated remark, but a surging wave that I personally feel. Popular events are really hard to come by, and they are sold all early, just like people in New York City left their homes and rushed to the cinema to watch this work, which really changed people's living and entertainment habits, although it was only limited to this week.
From the jokes and jokes of the "New Yorker" to the statistics of the exhibition relationship, everything is feeling the surging heat wave that erupts in the autumn season in all aspects!
Following the movie viewing craze on Friday and Saturday, Warner Bros. analyzed the pre-sale data and the increase curve, predicting that Sunday will see a single-day decline of 27%, and finally gave an ultimate box office forecast of 130 million yuan for the opening weekend. This result will undoubtedly rewrite history, and it will be a history that cannot be surpassed and difficult to replicate!
It is even more powerful than the emergence of "Twilight City" in 2008. It can be said that it swept through the eight wildernesses without any storm!
But this is still not all.
Later, market experts analyzed the box office curve of the premiere weekend of "Georgeous", especially the fundamental reason for the deviation of data from three consecutive times, including Warner Bros. and a number of professional media. Of course, during the prediction process, the market potential of "Georgeous" was always underestimated, which is an important factor; but in the face of data analysis, the more important decisive factor is that the movie has gone out of the legendary god trend curve.
Through the accumulation of reputation among the three film festivals, the topic effect of "gravity" has reached a new level. What can be confirmed and certain is that this is an excellent work, and it is likely to be the commercial film with the best reputation in history, but the audience still has doubts-
What does the so-called "perfect balance between business and art" mean by professional media? Because even the "Avengers" score is not so high. Does this mean that movies are more inclined to art? Otherwise, why did professional media and senior movie fans collectively climax? Just like the original "Batman: The Dark Knight".
Although some movies, although they have both commercial and artistic attributes, may not be loved by ordinary audiences. Some viewers simply like movies like "Transformers", which is also a kind of favorite.
However, all speculation and questions were answered during Friday's movie viewing frenzy.
If Friday is just a celebration stage for fanatical movie fans and Don Quixote, Saturday kicked off a frenzy of ordinary audiences entering the cinema. Under the powerful appeal of "Ranley Hall", many ordinary audiences are determined to try to see it. Even if a commercial movie is not so absolute, it will not be too bad.
After all, the two works "Fast and Furious 5" and "Edge of Tomorrow" have long proved that Lan Li still has strong control over commercial movies, right?
As a result, there was only a 10% ultra-low drop on Saturday.
Subsequently, the reputation of Friday and Saturday was superimposed and continued to ferment. On the social network platform, it was obvious that the enthusiasm for ordinary audiences to participate in discussions and participation reached a new level. The commercial attributes of "gravity" were gradually fermented, which led to another wave of ordinary audiences watching movies on Sunday.
In fact, the single-day decline of 27% predicted by Warner Bros. is already incredible. This data is based on the pre-sale box office and the box office trend in the past two days. This is a math problem and there will be basically no big deviation.
However, the actual single-day box office decline on Sunday was only 21%, almost replicating the 18% box office decline on the third day of the "Avengers" premiere, breaking the shackles of mathematical formulas and bringing another surprise.
In the end, "Georgein" won $39.1 million on Sunday, and the single-day box office data can still rank 11 in the autumn weekend box office history records.
The unfair comparison between the single-day box office and the weekend box office, but the "gravity" swept across the board, which further highlighted the film's toughness and strength in creating historical records. It does not require language, and just listing numbers can explode that shock to the extreme, which is enough to shock every audience.
The North American premiere weekend box office was $143.6 million.
This is the premiere data of "Georgeousness". Compared with the box office figures originally predicted by the media, it has almost tripled, truly showing the domineering spirit that makes the entire market and the entire industry tremble.
Such data ranked second among all movie premieres in 2013, second only to "Iron Man 3", easily surpassing the data of "Superman: Man of Steel" of $116 million; furthermore, in the box office of film history, it ranked strongly in the top ten, temporarily ranked eighth, surpassing the 142 million data created by "Twilight: Crescent" in 2009.
It can be simply said that such data is also a top work that has swept the army in this disappointing summer season this year.
If you don’t make a sound, you will make a splash.
The entire film industry is complaining about the desolation and loneliness of the fall season in North America. Warner Bros. arranged for the official release of "gravity" in October, neither forward nor backward nor cold. Commercial movies are not commercial movies, and artistic movies are not artistic movies. It is really hard to understand what choice this is.
But I accidentally planted willows and willows to form a shade.
Major film companies intermittently arranged some commercial movies to be released in the autumn season. Although they did not expose them, everyone knew it. In fact, it means: this is a commercial movie, but it does not have the confidence to hit the summer season, so it is placed in the autumn season with weak competitiveness to see if it can bring about a resurrection and integrate the idle market. Maybe the blind cat will encounter a dead mouse?
Yes, this time I really "touched".
"Georgeal" not only created an amazing historical record, increasing the original record by nearly three times; it also continued Renli's undefeated myth!
