708: just-so-so
Yoona has been busy promoting this movie recently, where she played a cool "cat" role. This is also the outside world claims that she left Li Donglai to "protect the Wings" and her next first non-Phantom project filming means gaining a foothold in Hollywood. But she herself has no feelings. She is making jokes about what she is going to make, but she would rather not leave for the rest of her life.
But whenever Yoona goes to a place to do promotion, she feels a headache when she is asked whether she can defeat her boyfriend's "Hangover 2" at the box office. She is just a "kitten" in the film. Magneto and Professor X are the protagonists, go and ask them.
However, Yoona has received more attention than other major roles in this role, which also surprised the producers. It is probably the first time that Asian faces appear in the film, which makes Asian media very excited.
Lee Donglai was caught in the bad review of the sequel with a bad reputation. She was worried for a while. If possible, she naturally hoped to win the game. The Korean media was very excited because Yoona participated in the blockbuster "X-Men: The First Battle", which completely gained a foothold in Hollywood.
Jessica also performed well in "Hangover 2". Although she was caught in a word-of-mouth battle, she could not get her attention to her.
Girls' Generation also rose.
The box office of North America on June 3rd and June 5th was released in the North American weekend. The latest X-Men prequel "X-Men: The First Battle" drove away two new films last week to become the champion.
It showed off its strength on 6,900 screens of 3,641 theaters, and a total of 56 million US dollars were recorded in three days on weekends.
This result can only be "justsoso" for the X-Men series. The box office of the X-Men series is from high to low: 102 million in X-Men 3: The Last Battle, 85.55 million in X-Men 2, 85.05 million in X-Men Prequel: Wolverine, and 54.47 million in X-Men 1.
"The First Battle"'s 56 million opening paintings ranked second to last, barely surpassing the X-Men's pioneering work, but without considering inflation.
The gathering of stars in the main story makes Uncle Xiu less important, but the "Wolverine", which was fighting alone, was under the huge pressure of the leak of sample films, Hugh Jackman still supported the entire film with one person and guaranteed a total commercial output value of 180 million yuan. It is indeed the domineering appeal of the wolf soul possessed.
When the X-Men began to enter the "wolf-proof" state, the box office failure immediately appeared. Now it is difficult for "First Battle" to recover 160 million yuan, and since this film is at the most fragile bearing point of the new and old series. The quality of the box office is likely to affect the shooting of the latter films, so I sincerely wish the X-Men good luck...
As a result, the movies starring Rain, both of them had poor reputations, which made Korean media a little discouraged. However, the one thing that boasted and praised was their specialty. The movies starring Rain were so bad at both box office and reputation, and they could still shout the slogans of world stars. Moreover, the box office is still very good now, so they naturally shouted louder.
Li Donglai also applauded Yoona on Twitter without getting tired of it. He recommended fans to watch "X-Men". His hard work is better than his own movies, which made his fans joke. I think about the crew of "Wall Flower Boy" that there was insufficient funds, and Li Donglai took the initiative to invest. In addition, Emma also recommended "Hangover 2" to fans without getting tired of recommending to fans... The relationship between these three people in their work is really supportive!
Many media use this as an example. "The young man and the two women may occasionally fight each other emotionally, but they are surprisingly consistent with each other. They support each other and help each other at work. Even under the media camera, they are unwilling to say bad things about anyone... If they do not consider the shortcomings of their large number of couples, they really think that they are imitating couples in Hollywood!"
Not to mention others, "Hangover 2" plummeted this week without expectation, and "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" also fell badly this week.
"Hangover 2" fell by as much as 62% this week, and closed at 36.59 million the next week. This fall was extremely bad. The decline was even higher than that of "Sex and the City 2", which was denied the yearly bad movie in the past year, compared with the first movie that only fell by 27 percentage points during the same period.
However, the Phantom is satisfied. "Hangover 2" was released in North America for 11 days, and the cumulative box office of the film has reached US$198 million, and the level of US$200 million has passed in an instant.
It took 17 days for "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" to achieve this result!
This result is the fastest money-making speed among R-level films after "The Matrix 2"!
At the same time, as an R-level film, the following week and weekend actually maintained the strange curve of Friday and Sunday!
Although the decline rate of the next week was astonishing, "Hangover 2" returned from the "explosion" in the first week to the box office pace of the first part.
So far, "Hangover 2" has frequently shown signs of long-term buying. Although the film is extremely rational and dare not make a conclusion, the box office value of 300 million is still in sight!
In a word, the Phantom made a big profit once again. The Hangover series once again proved its powerful money-making ability!
"Pirates of the Caribbean 4" continues its downward journey, and the 55% decline rate is also disappointing.
So far, the cumulative box office of 190 million in 17 days of release has exceeded 190 million, which is really incomparable to the previous few movies! But Captain Jack's overseas box office is amazing!
As of this weekend, its overseas box office has officially risen to 600 million US dollars after only 17 days of release worldwide! Compared again, the final overseas box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Soul Cave" was 642 million, and "Pirates of the Caribbean 3: The End of the World" was 654 million, which means that the final overseas accumulation of the two senior brothers can be achieved in just about one month!
The three largest box office big warehouses are Japan (US$61.5 million), Russia (US$57.1 million) and China (US$53 million). So far, "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" has accumulated a global box office of US$790 million, ranking 31st in the global box office rankings in film history, exceeding the $900 million mark, and the global box office total of 1 billion has also shown light.
With such box office results, Depp's supporters are increasingly dissatisfied with the release of "Hangover 2" on the first weekend, which will make "Add 4" better.
Yahoo's comprehensive score b, the freshness of rotten tomatoes continues to decline, and it is now less than 50%. Li Donglai has fallen into the first low reputation since his debut. This time, his hardcore fans seem to be helpless.
As for news from China, "Hangover 2" continues to miss the mainland. The Phantom is not disappointed because he has never expected it. He wants to buy money from overseas ticket warehouses, but has already entered the middle and late stages of production. "Kung Fu Panda 2" will bring back all the lost this summer in this Christmas period.
"Pirates of the Caribbean 4: Strange Waves" has seen an explosive box office growth in China, with a premiere of more than 20 million US dollars alone, which is roughly RMB 130 million, the highest box office this year, but this record is probably soon refreshed by Transformers.
Last week Paramount officially announced the release date of "Transformers 3" in North America: June 29. However, given that the blockbuster "The Founding of the Party" with "stars" gathered in China Film will be fully released on June 15, "Transformers 3" will be postponed for about a month, and even "Harry Potter 7" will be affected.
Because Li Donglai did not participate in the shooting of "The Founding of the Party" because of insufficient schedule.
And in this summer season, "33 Days of Love Break" cancelled the summer season and changed it to November, which seemed very reasonable, otherwise it would be flattened in the cracks of the movie.
And in Xiangjiang...
"Well, the situation is a bit special. The public opinion here is not the popular "Plus 4". Instead, it is occupied by a Hong Kong 3D blockbuster, "3D Jin Ping Mei". It is known as the hottest topic this summer. With the slogan of allowing fans to experience a third-level film in an immersive way, the sales are simply shocking. Even many people in the mainland have made a special trip to Xiangjiang to watch this film.
Their promotional slogans are indeed good, and even Brother Donglai wants to go and see them. However, it will probably have a great impact, so he can only give a pirated film online to admire it.
...
"lee, how are you doing lately?"
"Avengers" is back on the stage, and as soon as Li Donglai returned to the crew, he was teased by producer Kevin.
"It's very good, Kevin, I'm fine." Li Donglai responded readily.
"Hey, Lee heard that "The Hangover" is a good movie, but it's okay if you've ever met an R-level comedy once, so let's work with us in peace in the future." Kevin bewitched, but his moves are really not very clever.
Donnie, who was wearing a suit and putting his hands in his pockets, deliberately "putting a trick" and said, "Kevin, this guy's reputation has become worse now, so you are not afraid that his movie will be messed up." Although his tone was detrimental to Li Donglai, it was obvious that he was just helping Li Donglai test the producer's tone.
"No, I'm very optimistic about Li's ability in commercial blockbusters. As long as he is willing, after we finish filming this film, there are still many plans to launch it immediately..."
Li Donglai said helplessly: "Kevin, do you think I can't shoot comedy well? I'm sorry your vision has become worse. I like comedy very much, and I will shoot comedy again. "Hangover" is definitely not the end."
Kevin smiled and didn't care.
...
"Li Donglai finally got offended, that guy is going to be finished!" The black men from Donglai took the opportunity to attack on the computer screen.
"yes!yes! Get out of here, Chinese guy, bring that little Korean whore, get out of here together!" The white supremacists waved their victorious fists. They seemed to have been waiting for Li Donglai to be unlucky for too long.
The satirical film reviews made the East Blacks, as well as the media such as The Sun, Le Monde, and Playboy gloat.
