Legendary Hollywood Director

For a movie, there are many criteria for judging whether it is good or bad. From lens language to shooting skills, or editing methods, there are always too many things to talk about.

But for most moviegoers and audiences, there may only be one market element that can always stimulate the senses the most, and that is the box office.

Compared with film reviews with strong professional and personal inclinations, it is always clear at a glance whether the real-time box office is more or less.

Passers-by and audiences are obviously easy to draw a conclusion based on this kind of data: the box office is high, and the movie will never be too rubbish...

Therefore, ordinary audiences are easily attracted by the box office figures of a movie, and then they have the idea of ​​going to the theater for support.

On the first day of Daydreamer, it generated a box office of 24.75 million US dollars with nearly 1,000 screens, which naturally won the attention of many audiences.

Under the circumstance that Blue Butterfly Pictures continued to invest in publicity funds, news such as the release of Daydreamer was constantly pushed into the information market by major media, thus accumulating more attention.

Due to the problems of living and reading habits, Americans still quite like to buy newspapers, which is a common reading for leisure.

So naturally, the box office performance of films that can win the audience's attention is the most commonly used reporting direction——

Director Lyman-Last made another effort to create a light-hearted comedy that was different from the past and won the box office on its first day.

The long-distance travel with joy, fun, and little people is so exciting, and it won a high box office of 24.75 million US dollars on the first day. There is no doubt that Daydreamer is a good combination of business and art. It was also very popular among fans.”

With an average of 24,000 US dollars in the museum, Daydreamer has won a lot of opponents. Just yesterday, Blue Butterfly Pictures released only about 1,000 cinema screens, but it lived up to the audience's expectations and support. Overwhelming many films to win the daily box office champion, and what is even more rare is the comparison of various aspects of data between Daydream and the second-placed Fantastic Daddy.

Both belong to the category of comedy. The production cost of Daydreamer is slightly higher than that of Fantastic Daddy, but the audience evaluation on IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes is very different, with a score of close to 1.4 (White). Daydream 7.7; Dream Daddy 6.3), in terms of total box office, Dream Daddy has accumulated 62.45 million, and the show time is nearly two weeks, but Daydreamer has 24.75 million on the first day of its premiere. , more than one-third of the total of the former, and the number of screens in The Brave Daddy is more than that of Daydream, but it is completely irresistible. In comparison, it must be far surpassed.

Therefore, it is not difficult to foresee that Daydreamer will rely on its excellent word of mouth and the popularity of its screenings. The more the box office is harvested, in the next month or so, this moderately invested film is likely to make a lot of money, and it will land in North America. At least it is more than 170 million, maybe it will break through 200 million if you work harder.

Moreover, this is also a wake-up call for the ever-increasing cost of film production - the more investment, the greater the profit, but the tragic defeat due to the increase in production risk...

The media coverage made Daydreamer quickly become the focus of the audience's attention. With so many compliments and discussions, reporters and paparazzi would naturally not miss this great opportunity.

And because director Lehman rarely gives interviews, he doesn't necessarily have the time to be wasted by these people.

So they have turned their attention to another central character of the movie - the pursuit of Jim Carrey.

In the past, when I was neglected by the media, I would be apprehensive, but once it became popular, I would not tire of it. Perhaps this is the contradiction shared by all actors.

That's what happened to Jim Carrey anyway, and all of a sudden his life was full of flashes of light.

On the streets, in restaurants, and even in private houses, whether driving or participating in various activities, the participation of paparazzi is indispensable.

These people seem to be everywhere and pervasive, chasing and asking...

Of course, this kind of life is not unfamiliar to Jim Carrey at all, and he himself is instructed by the economic team to cooperate as much as possible to increase his exposure - the popularity of the movie is only temporary, and it must not be wasted .

Therefore, in the face of interviews, Jim Carrey kept his demeanor as much as possible, responded with discretion, and did not step on the trap.

He knows that his words and deeds will be watched by the media like a magnifying glass. Many people will be happy to watch his jokes. He also avoids answering some sharp questions. Otherwise, it is likely to be self-defeating. , just how black.

Don't look at these people who always show a pleasing smile and go around the whole thing, but these people don't do this to him alone. Whoever has a topic will revolve around who, and the order can't be wrong.

For the sake of topicality, these people do everything, and even deliberately distort the facts.

However, Jim Carrey clearly understands this. This is a required course for an actor who wants to get along in Hollywood - how to deal with the media.

At the same time, Daydreamer continues to search for box office benefits through the North American market, and the audience's viewing enthusiasm has not weakened at all after the first day.

After the two days that followed, Daydream's first weekend box office figures were officially announced.

Among them, the harvest was 22.45 million on Saturday, 22.84 million on Sunday, and a total of 70.04 million on the weekend and three days, which once again proves how broad the market for comedy movies is. Participation.

And the box office of 70.04 million US dollars in the first week is naturally very easy to win the box office champion of the week, surpassing the second place The Brave Daddy with 32.42 million, which is simply an unchallenged crush.

Time will soon enter the second week of the release of Daydreamer. Although Blue Butterfly Pictures has confidence in the film and is speeding up the distribution operation as much as possible, however, Daydreamer will be released on the screen the following week. The number has only increased by less than 750 pieces.

This is mainly a matter of communication and copying. It is impossible to spread too much in just two or three days. Blue Butterfly Pictures has already prepared a little for it to increase so much.

Of course, the market potential of a movie is always limited, and it is impossible to come casually.

Anyway, even if the number of screenings is increased, the daily box office performance of the film in the following week has not increased. After all, the audience base will always gradually decrease over time.

This is why people in the industry often use the formula that the box office of a movie in the first three weeks can basically account for about 70% of the box office of the whole movie to predict the box office location.

However, for the current situation, both Lehmann and Blue Butterfly Pictures are very satisfied.

It's never going to be a loss...
