On the day of the premiere of "Trumen's World" and "Ultra-Perfect Murder", the confrontation between the two works released on the same day was a hot topic, and Gwyneth Paltrow revealed her feelings for Hugo during the interview. Dissatisfaction and rejection have become the focus of enthusiastic discussions among reporters.

As the number one man in the world today, although Hugo has not been re-elected as the world's most sexed person by "People" Weekly in the past two years. Feeling gentle, but whether it is Brad Pitt the year before or George Clooney last year, the gap with Hugo is very obvious.

It is worth mentioning that although George Clooney suffered consecutive box office defeats of "Batman and Robin" and "Peacemaker", he still successfully defeated Tom Cruise and Leonardo Dee. Caprio and Hugo, successfully became the "People" Weekly Person of the Year. This has also become an anecdote: can George really replace Brad and compete with Hugo?

Because of Hugo’s powerful influence, Hugo’s emotional dynamics have always been the focus of people’s attention. Gwyneth’s very critical attitude towards Hugo makes people start to think about it: Gwyneth and Hugo. What happened between? Could it be said that Hugo hurt Gwyneth? Or Hugo rejected Gwyneth? Otherwise, Hugo's attitude angered Gwyneth? What does the "chemical reaction" between these two people have to do with the breakup of Gwyneth and Brad, the golden boy and the girl, and what does it have to do with the breakup of Hugo and Cameron?

The countless gossip behind made the paparazzi's enthusiasm burning. After the premiere on June 1st, the paparazzi began to concentrate on digging the story behind this speculation. For a time, countless imaginatives were flying all over the sky, making this summer file change. It's going to be more exciting.

People do not yet know the truth between Gwyneth and Hugo, but there is no doubt that Gwyneth and Hugo are not friends, which makes the "super-perfect murder" and "Trumen's world" The confrontation between the two adds a whole new aspect.

After the premiere ended, the vastly different reviews and reputation of the two films did not directly affect people's expectations for the premiere box office. Because there is such a paradox in summer commercial blockbusters: movies with bad word-of-mouth can also hit the box office at the premiere, such as "Batman and Robin". Although the reviews are terrible, there are still four thousand at the premiere weekend. Ten-thousand-dollar performance-the box office decline since then is naturally earth-shattering. This is mainly because the box office of the premiere mainly looks at the appeal of the cast, as well as the attractiveness of the film company's early publicity.

In the four days between the 1st and the 5th, the "super-perfect murder case" was overwhelmed by publicity. The two leading actors Michael Douglas and Gwyneth Paltrow went from the east to the middle and then to the west. From the south to the north and then to Canada, I participated in more than 20 publicity trips. It can almost be said that there is no time to sleep and I can only rest on the way.

In comparison, the publicity of "Trumen's World" is obviously much weaker. Hugo, Nicole Kidman and Alexander Lorraine only attended a few important publicity programs, and first completed the "Tonight Show". After that, he participated in three radio programs, and arrived in New York on Friday to attend the live broadcast of "Today", and held a fan meeting in the square where the broadcast was live. That's it.

Although it is said that the live broadcast of "Trumen's World" crew "Today" brought together more than 3,000 people, almost half of Manhattan Island was boiled, and the momentum was huge, but the "Super Perfect Murder" did not show any weakness in the propaganda front. , The performance was extremely strong and completely suppressed competitors in the same period. This made the premiere box office this weekend further increased the suspense.

June 5th, Friday arrived, all the audience enthusiastically poured into the cinema to enjoy the relaxation and beauty of the weekend time, attracting everyone's attention to this weekend's box office battle. From the violent collision on Friday, to the smoke on Saturday, to the last fight on Sunday, the North American film market showed the enthusiasm for the summer vacation, surpassing the previous May in one fell swoop, and unveiled the summer vacation this year in a true sense. The curtain of the file!

On June 8th, the North American weekend movie box office rankings were released!

"Trumen's World" is only shown in 2,500 theaters. It can be seen that Paramount is relatively conservative about the prospects of this comedy drama movie, not according to the level of the 3,000 theaters of commercial blockbusters. Plan the scale of the premiere. But the results proved that Paramount still underestimated the powerful appeal of Hugo today-even if it was the first challenge to a comedy movie, it did not stop the audience from going crazy into the cinema.

The box office of a single library of 18,000 US dollars has almost reached the level of commercial movies, surpassing last year’s "Men in Black", and also surpassing this year’s previous "World Clash" and "Godzilla". It has become one of the most outstanding large-scale releases in the summer file in the past two years. In terms of single-library performance, it only fell on the "Jurassic Park 2: The Lost World" that was devastated by the box office of the summer file last year.

The extremely outstanding single-library box office has made "Trumen's World" the premier weekend box office of 45 million US dollars in one fell swoop, becoming the most outstanding work at the premiere box office so far this year. This is really something that no one expected, because disaster blockbusters such as "Clash of Heaven and Earth" and "Godzilla" are already in front of them. The appeal of these commercial blockbusters is obviously more than that of comedy movies. But as a result, "Trumen's World" achieved the best premiere performance this year!

Before the release of "Trumen's World", people had predicted the premiere performance of this movie, and most people were unanimously optimistic that this work could obtain 30 million premiere data, surpassing "Ghosts in Disguise" and " Works such as "Fatty Daddy" and "Fatty Professor" have created a new high for the premiere of comedy movies, but even so, people still underestimate the performance of "Trumen's World"-or, to be more precise, underestimate the rain. The impact on the current North American market.

From drama movies to romance movies, from action movies to commercial movies, from thriller movies to art movies, and now to comedy movies, Hugo's ability to control a variety of movies with different themes has been fully reflected, regardless of the fact that it has not yet started. Not to mention the horror movies that Hugo has shown in different types of works has been enough to make him among the heights of the actor of the palace, maybe in ten years-or five years later, people mentioned "Hugo Lancaster" "Special" will be like mentioning Jack Nicholson, Meryl Streep, Robert De Niro, Catherine Hepburn and other outstanding actors, and they will be amazed.

More importantly, different types of works have not only won the praise of film critics, but also won the recognition of certain awards. At the same time, they have also achieved outstanding results in the box office. This is precisely the highest in the entire film industry. One of the important links: Even for art films, the outstanding box office results can further expand the influence of the works.

As today’s top box office star, Hugo once again changed the history of comedy movies with the power of King's Landing. Starting from "Trumen's World", comedy movie premieres opened an era of 40 million yuan at the box office. It means that comedy movies are not only a representative of Xiaoboda, but also have the ability to keep pace with other types of movies and become a new force in the summer vacation together. After all, comedy movies can be said to be one of the best choices for family fun, and the box office potential is far Did not get 100% excavation.

But now, "Trumen's World" has shown this kind of potential!

The US$45 million weekend premiere data not only blasted "Fatty Professor"’s US$25 million premiere performance, but also directly raised the box office record of comedy movies from 20 million to 20 million. Forty million grades, this is almost twice the data recorded before, and it is even comparable to the box office performance of "Men in Black" last summer of 51 million U.S. dollars, making the entire North American market amazed.

Exclaiming the vigorous vitality of comedy movies, exclaiming the powerful appeal of Hugo, exclaiming another miracle in the film market.

Although people have long been accustomed to Hugo's momentum, almost every movie is released with the birth of countless historical records, but this time the record of the comedy movie still makes countless professionals dumbfounded-just before the movie was released. The same as the controversy caused by the “sixth sense of supernatural”, the reason why genre movies become “genres” is because each type of movie is a model formed after years of precipitation in the market-this is not something that some experts gathered together to discuss The conclusion is a choice made by the entire market itself. Therefore, it is never easy to break the shackles of genre movies.

Now Trumen’s World" has almost completely changed the influence of comedy movies in the market, and the box office ability of comedy movies has also risen to the average level of other commercial movies. This achievement has almost It is comparable to the "Independence Day" of the previous year.

Especially under the premise that "Independence Day" and "Titanic" have officially opened the era of blockbuster films, the outstanding performance of "Trumen's World" once again continued the outstanding performance of "L.A. Confidential" and "Perfect Perfection". And as a black comedy with a strong irony, "Trumen's World" originally pointed the finger at the inside story of entertainment to death, but now it has received such strong support from the audience, which makes Hollywood conservatives rejoice again. :

Even though Oscar has already put the "Titanic" on the throne, there are still variables in the change of history!

It was only then that people remembered that "L.A. Confidential" and "Perfect" had each won three statuettes, and all of them were important awards in the main departments, and they did not fail in the confrontation with the "Titanic". Now, "Trumen's World" has once again continued this pattern. In the future development of the film market, no one can still accurately predict.

In the face of "Trumen's World" that changed the record of the entire film history and the premiere box office results of the entire market structure, the "Super Perfect Murder" looked bleak.
