In mid-July, with the continued popularity of "Super Body", the domestic film market continued to heat up throughout the summer.
Domestic blockbusters usually focus on the Lunar New Year block. The summer block is usually a competition between Hollywood blockbusters and domestic mid-to-upper-cost blockbusters. There is often a tug-of-war between three or four movies, which is very lively.
But this year, with the addition of the blockbuster movie "Superman", the summer season once again recreated the situation when "House of Flying Daggers" was released in 2004.
That year, Guoshi swept the entire summer season with "House of Flying Daggers".
The box office of films released in the summer such as "The Great War in the Flower City", "Entertaining Yourself", "Love in May", "Judo Dragon and Tiger List", "Spider-Man 2", "Shrek 2"
Altogether, it is not as high as "House of Flying Daggers".
He truly managed to suppress the entire film market on his own.
Although Tang An also won last year's summer film, "Seven Swords" received 60 million, "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" received nearly 60 million, and "Initial D" also received 60 million, so there was no absolute crushing.
However, this time, "Super Body" received nearly 60 million box office in its first weekend, which was nearly double the 31.1 million of "Terror Cruise"!
What about the box office of the movies that are still being released in the summer?
"Superman Returns" grossed 16 million at the box office in its first week of release.
"Crazy Stone" was released for half a month, with a total box office of 5.2 million!
There is no comparison at all, and together they are not even half as good as "Super Body".
China Film and Tang An's publicity did not fall behind, and the money was spent like water, splash, splash...
On July 18, the first working day of the second week, the box office dropped only 40%, collecting another 6.89 million!
With a drop of less than half, it can be said that it is quite rare to still achieve such a high box office after the early box office explosion.
Now some of the media and filmmakers in the industry who had maliciously expected "Super Body" to take a big hit at the box office fell silent.
The situation is already quite clear. If you say "Super Body" cannot exceed 100 million, it would be strange if it is not regarded as SB.
The question now is whether it can break the summer box office record set by "House of Flying Daggers" with a box office of 156 million in 2004. This is the key!
On the 19th, Tuesday, the half-price day, "Super Body" collected another 7.31 million, a slight increase.
It was released for 6 days, with a total box office of 72.86 million!
According to the current trend, as long as it can withstand the release of "Mission: Impossible 3" today, it is estimated that it will exceed 100 million by Sunday.
The premiere of "Mission: Impossible 3" was held in Beijing last night, but Tang An didn't have time to attend.
This first day is very important!
Last night during prime time, the latest episode of "Light and Shadow Star Podcast" was also broadcast.
In the program, Tang An explained to the audience how this science fiction blockbuster was filmed.
A detailed explanation of each shot, the use of wires, the classic Hollywood three-shot sequence of car destruction, the track + seat rotation + mobile green mu shot to the final climax...
For the first time, the detailed shooting process was displayed in front of the audience. Various props and equipment that had never been seen before also aroused the curiosity of the audience and had a certain influence on the box office.
On Wednesday, the 20th, "Mission: Impossible 3" took in a box office of 5.61 million on its first day of release.
Liang Tang still has a certain box office appeal. Under the pressure of "Super Body", it is already very good to get 5.6 million box office.
When "A World Without Thieves" faced "Kung Fu", it only received more than 5 million at the box office on its first day.
However, "Mission: Impossible 3" is indeed hearty. It starts with a motorboat chase in the Vatican, then a factory battle in Berlin, Germany, a fight in the Jinmao Tower in the magical city, a chase in the ancient town of Xitang, a car chase in the Huangpu Tunnel...
The whole film is 120 minutes long, 40 minutes of which were shot in China. Looking at the familiar buildings, movie fans were quite convinced.
But today’s protagonist is still “Super Body”!
On the 7th day of release, it collected another 5.88 million box office, suppressing "Mission: Impossible 3" with a gap of 270,000, and continuing to dominate the daily box office championship!
Didn't make it back on the first day, the media still sang praises for "Super Body", and "Mission: Impossible 3" was only mentioned in passing.
The dominance of the summer film schedule has become a foregone conclusion, and reporters and film critics from all walks of life have started to brag about it.
Tang An happened to browse Douban, and a long comment post with the title "Hearing the Tao in the morning, I will die in the evening!" really made him feel ashamed.
Over 3,000 words of eloquent, detailed and complete analysis of the plot, with various praises from every angle.
Tang An was tired from reading it and skipped straight to the final summary.
"Until the end of the movie, the ending song was as awesome as the movie. I sat there and listened to it, trying to calm down my excitement. If I could sum up this movie in one sentence, I think it would be: "Hear the Tao in the morning and die in the evening."
”.
After Lucy became a super body, she has been trying to solve the problem of "who am I and what do I want to be?" She went to the drug dealer not for revenge, but to know the whereabouts of other drugs so that she could complete her evolution.
She went to the professor to figure out what happened to her and what she should do. Finally, she returned to the starting point of time in her mind. In my understanding, she exhausted the path and then disappeared.
For this movie, I think if you have the ultimate humanistic care, you will have a sense of immersion after watching it, and this sense of immersion will become so real in the film's audio and video effects, it will move people to tears. I
It’s true that I was filled with emotions during the last period of time travel!”
For such an exaggerated film review, not many people were laughing at it. Instead, they were all praised.
"Dads Within 3" has lost its momentum and it is no longer possible to overtake it.
On the first day, it outperformed action blockbusters starring Hollywood superstars, and the box office actually rebounded slightly on Thursday.
On Thursday and Friday, "Superman" collected another 13.04 million, followed by Mission: Impossible with 12.76 million.
On the 23rd and 24th, in the second weekend, the single-day box office of "Super Body" rose to more than 10 million again after 5 days, with a total of 20.02 million in two days.
"Mission: Impossible 3" is still closely behind with 17.86 million, which is very tight.
Two weeks and 11 days after its release, the total box office of "Super Body" has exceeded the 100 million mark!
108.8 million.
108.8 million, Super Body became the sixth domestic movie to have a box office of over 100 million!
As for “Mission: Impossible 3,” which grossed 35 million in its first week, and the dark horse “Crazy Stone,” which has grossed 9 million, no one mentions it anymore.
"The fifth billionaire director is born, Tang An joins the ranks of famous directors at the age of 25!"
"Officially on par with Zhang Yimou and Brother Chen Kai, he is only 25 years old, the sky is the limit for Tang An!"
"When we were discussing who would be the next member of the Billion-Yuan Club, some said Jiang Wen, some said Xu Ke, some said Wu Yusen, and some even thought it was Wang Jiawei. But now, Tang An is among the many in the country.
In front of the great director!”
"With super high reputation and explosive box office, if there is a template for Tang An, it would be China's Spielberg!"
Tang An was showered with overwhelming praise, and all kinds of words that people could think of were dizzying.
"Damn it, before I knew it, the box office of "Super Body" exceeded 100 million!"
""Horror Cruise" has already received 80 million yuan, and breaking 100 million yuan is a matter of course. I contributed two movie tickets in vain, hahaha!"
"Tang An has only made three movies, which is awesome!"
"The news said that Tang An is 25 years old, the same age as me. Just because of this, I want to support two more movie tickets!"
""Super Body" is really good-looking, and Tang An is also awesome. I don't think many people in China can make this kind of action science fiction film!"
"The Billion-Yuan Club has allowed a young director to take the lead. Now where do the older directors put their faces?"
"Well done to Tang An, he has given us a face-lift for those born in the 1980s!"
"From now on, I will be Tang An's crazy fan. When I become more awesome than him, I will stop being a fan of him!"
PS: The song yesterday was not by Hongdou. I remembered it wrong. It was "Repayment", but the tune is the same, one in Mandarin and one in Cantonese, but the words are different!
