Won the championship for five consecutive weeks, and at the weekend of the fifth week, it was still able to burst out 30 million box office data. In the entire movie history, only one movie has achieved such a feat-"Titanic". Even the second "Independence Day" in film history has not been able to create this record. There is only "Titanic", the only one.

But now, the name of another work must be added to the list of movie history, and that is "The Sixth Sense of Spirituality".

Such a performance, even the use of surprise to describe it, is not enough to express the intricacies of people's hearts. If it is "Independence Day" to create such a historical record, then the film company still has traces to follow, even "Trumen's World" is justified-at least a comedy movie suitable for everyone to watch, but it is the sixth feel"? A horror movie? This is too scary. It is not even a surprise, but a panic. The panic has plunged the entire Hollywood film industry into a cloud and fog, but no one knows when the final pace of this movie will stop.

In five weeks, 236 million U.S. dollars, 300 million has already waved not far away, is it really going to hit 400 million? If it is true, then... then it is terrible!

In the second week of September, the small-cost thriller fantasy movie "Stigmata ( finally showed its competitiveness again, with an investment of 29 million US dollars, but 18 million US dollars were handed over on the premiere weekend. The box office data of, this made people breathe a sigh of relief, and finally there are works that are eligible for competition, and it is no longer the "sixth sense of supernatural" dominance.

However, the performance of "Stigmata" is still limited in its competitiveness. Under the impact of competitors of the same type, the "Sixth Sense of Spirit" broke a 25% drop, which is also the biggest drop since the movie was released. , The first time it exceeded 20%, but even so, the work’s weekend box office still reached 25.5 million U.S. dollars, and still did not encounter any challenges, bringing the number of weeks to six consecutive weeks of winning the championship. ——And it's six weeks full of weight!

In the second week of September, "Sixth Sense of Spirituality" won six consecutive championships, and "Stigmata" regrettably finished second.

In the third week of September, the "Sixth Sense of Supernatural" dropped by as much as 30%, but it still narrowly beat the two newly released works, "The Stupid Thief (blue.strak and "The Love of Baseball (...). of.the.game to achieve an incredible seven consecutive championships!

Until the fourth week of September, the thrilling suspense film "Fatal Manhunt (. starring Tommy Lee Jones paid 23 million US dollars in the box office of the premiere weekend, which ended the "spiritual". The seven weeks of "Sixth Sense" reshuffled the entire North American box office list.

But even so, "Spiritual Sixth Sense" still wrote an unsurpassed historical record, winning the championship for seven consecutive weeks, which can also occupy a place in the history of film, becoming the third-most consecutive champion among Hugo's personal works. The works only lag behind "Independence Day" and "Yihai Xiongfeng". At the same time, this is also the best performance of a horror movie. To be precise, there are only a handful of horror movies that have achieved three consecutive championships, not to mention holding the seven-week championship-four weeks of which are within the scope of the summer file, this is indeed an impossible to replicate. , An even more unsurpassable historical feat!

In the second week of September, the cumulative box office of "Sixth Sense of Supernatural" surpassed that of "Exorcist" and "Ghostbusters", ranking second in film history. In the third week of September, "Sixth Sense of Supernatural" moved forward again. One, surpassing the "Jaws", achieved the highest peak of the horror movie box office rankings in the history of the movie; the fourth week of September, the week that went down in the annals of history.

Although this week's "Fatal Appeal" ended the seven consecutive championships of "Sixth Sense of Spirituality", "Sixth Sense of Spirituality" still stood on the shoulders of history, and the cumulative box office officially passed the threshold of 300 million yuan and came to it. The position of 308 million US dollars truly created the history of the film industry.

"The Sixth Sense of Spirit" became the first horror movie with a box office of more than 300 million yuan in film history. What is even more incredible is that in the next two decades, no horror genre has reached such a high level. In fact, Twenty years later, in the film history list, there are still a handful of works of the same type that have reached 200 million US dollars, not to mention touching the 300 million threshold. This also makes the "sixth sense of the supernatural" create an almost impossible to surpass. The highest point of history, truly among the classic halls of movie history.

Last year, "Trumen's World" created a new high in the history of comedy movies. This year, "The Sixth Sense of Supernatural" created a new high in the history of horror movies. The two works have one thing in common-the male protagonist is the same actor. Even if no one can contend with Hugo's momentum, at this moment, everyone still has an involuntary urge to worship.

Compared with "Trumen's World", the breakthrough of "Spiritual Sixth Sense" is undoubtedly more difficult, but also more arduous. Horror movies have been declining for more than ten years, and finally burst out with shocking energy once again, once again becoming a part of the film industry that cannot be ignored.

Even if it is emphasized many times, it is still impossible to describe the shock and wonder of the horror movie creation such a great achievement. Without seeing the historical context, people really can't find anything other than "Hugo Lancaster". For the reason, I can only sigh that the times have created heroes, and the final prosperity of the film industry and music industry in the 1990s has created a unique top star.

Accompanying it is that horror movies have entered a new round of production frenzy-this is not surprising, but at the same time it has also led to Westerns, musicals and other types of movies that have gradually withdrawn from the stage of history, which makes people laugh and cry. Obviously, in the environment of the blockbuster era, people are beginning to learn to open their minds and accept more possibilities. After that, outstanding works such as "Chicago" and "Moulin Rouge" were also born, which was an unexpected surprise.

All media questions have been answered: "The Sixth Sense of Spirituality" has become the first film in film history to exceed 300 million at the box office. It is also the eleventh film in film history with a box office of over 300 million, which truly makes up for the North American film industry. Blank-the long-standing horror genre has been renamed and created the history of genre movies with works such as "Alien e.t", "Forrest Gump", "Lion King", and "Trumen's World".

However, after the box office broke the 300 million threshold, the box office of "Spiritual Sixth Sense" did not stop, and the weekly decline was almost controlled below 20%. Such an outstanding performance allows people to clearly feel the audience's response. The popularity of this work started from September into October, and in the blink of an eye, after November and December, it entered the year 2000. After experiencing the Golden Globes and Oscars, the film was released to the year 2000. In the first week of May, for a forty-week screening period, you can experience the powerful appeal of this work in the North American market without any language at all.

In the end, the accumulative box office of "Supernatural Sixth Sense" staggered to 380 million U.S. dollars. Unfortunately, it failed to cross the 400 million threshold-but no one would feel regretful, because for a horror movie In other words, such an achievement is a unique myth.

"Sixth Sense of Spirituality" replaced "Trumen's World" and "L.A. Secret" and became Hugo's second best box office performance after "Independence Day". This is the third consecutive situation in the past three years. Now the "L.A. Secret" has surpassed the "speed of life and death", and then the "Trumen's World" has surpassed the "L.A. Secret", and now the "Sixth Sense of Supernatural" has replaced the "Trumen's World". From this detail, it can be seen that Hugo's career development curve is continuously climbing up with a powerful posture, and considering Hugo's supremacy today, such a development curve is even more numbing.

Not only that, in the film history box office rankings, the "Sixth Sense of Supernatural" also surpassed the "Lion King", "Forrest Gump" and "Jurassic Park", ranking sixth in film history, just behind the "Titan" Five works including Nick, "Independence Day", "Star Wars", "Star Wars Episode 1: Phantom Threat" and "Alien e.t".

This kind of performance does not need to be repeated at all, a series of historical records is enough to prove the greatness of the "superior sixth sense". More importantly, the "Supernatural Sixth Sense" created a new peak in the reputation of horror movies after the "Exorcist", and also created a new commercial record for horror movies after the "Jaws" It truly revitalizes the horror film that spans half a century of film history.

Since Alfred Hitchcock introduced horror movies to classics, this has been an indispensable part of the North American film market. Now, the "Sixth Sense of Supernatural" is once again in the most direct, vivid and effective way. Prove this. Countless horror movie enthusiasts are once again full of vitality.

Even what Robert Iger and David Vogel did not expect when planning this project, their trust in Knight, their trust in Hugo, and their relationship with DreamWorks and Endeavour Elite Brokerage The game has paid off today. The investment of US$60 million has resulted in a box office of US$380 million, which is enough to be a highlight in any person's career.

At the same time, this is also the third work of Hugo as a producer, "L.A. Confidential", "Perfect Perfection", and "Sixth Sense of Supernatural." Hugo's 100% success rate once again caused an uproar on Wall Street. The "beautiful mind" invested in post-production quickly became the most anticipated work in the second half of the year.

The unexpectedly outstanding performance of "Spiritual Sixth Sense" in North America is not accidental, because the excellent performance of the work in overseas markets also proves this point, and this film with almost no American cultural imprint has been sought after in overseas markets. Beyond imagination!
