Entertainment tycoon since 83

Chapter 298 Box Office Released
One minute before the movie started, the audience started talking to each other while eating popcorn.

"I heard that this is a story written by Huang. This is the first time I heard that Huang can make a horror movie!"

"That means you don't usually pay attention to movies." The friend next to him curled his lips, "I've seen two horror movies written by Huang, both directed by this Zhang. They're not bad, and the atmosphere is well created, but I don't think they're that scary or exciting enough."

"I didn't really pay attention to it in the first place, but you insisted on asking me to watch it with you. I usually don't watch horror movies in the cinema. I like to watch them on videotape at home."

"Go ahead and watch it. I think it should be OK. Huang is a smart guy who knows what our audience likes to watch."

"Oh, it's started."

The male protagonist appeared and boarded a plane to Hong Kong Island. He predicted that the plane would explode, and started making a fuss and shouting that the plane was going to explode. He was successfully asked to get off by the airport security, along with several of his classmates and teachers.

They could have left today, but were delayed and had to take the next flight. Everyone complained a lot about the male protagonist Alex.

The male protagonist said nothing, still looking frightened.

Just as a classmate was complaining, suddenly, there was a loud "boom" and a ball of fire appeared in the sky.

The plane that everyone was about to board just now exploded!
The glass at the airport was shattered.

Although they knew this would be the result, the audience was still shocked!
Then I felt a sense of refreshment in my heart.

I wish I had the ability to foresee danger.

And to those mocking characters, just keep mocking them!
Are you stupid? This is your savior!

After the excitement, many viewers fell into deep thought: Isn't this a horror movie? Why does it give me such an excitement?
I'm afraid I watched a fake horror movie?
When everyone felt they could breathe a sigh of relief, the perspective switched to the protagonist's good friend Todd.

A cold wind blew by, and the toilet began to leak, and water began to spread on the ground.

Todd shaved, scraped his neck, and went to pick up the clothes from the tub.

At this time, the blue water caught up with Todd. His feet slipped and he slid forward, and his neck fell on the wire rope. One end of the wire rope couldn't withstand the force and wrapped around his neck several times. Todd also fell into the bathtub. In a panic, he knocked over the shower gel and soap, making the bathtub slippery. Todd couldn't stand up in the bathtub and was strangled to death.

Sensing something was wrong, the male and female protagonists secretly went to Todd's morgue and met a hey man.

He vaguely explained the procedure of death to the male and female protagonists, as well as to the audience.

People will eventually die, and everything they do is a fixed process in the process of death.

When you got off the plane, you have escaped from the original program. Now there is a completely new program waiting for you. If you want to survive, you have to guess when and how you will die!
Afterwards, the hero and heroine watched their friends die one by one due to coincidences designed by the god of death.

By accident, he was stabbed to death by a knife from his own home.

He was walking on the road and was hit and killed by a bus that suddenly came speeding on him.

There were also cases where the head was chopped off by the debris of the vehicle remaining on the railway after being crushed by a train.

Every time is so unexpected that it couldn’t be more unexpected.

After one round, the remaining three people thought they had escaped the death process. It was not until half a year later when Carter died under a 180 billboard that everyone realized that the story and the hunt were far from over.

But the film ended at this moment.

The audience in the cinema was led to applaud after the show ended.

"There's a second part!" "I think I'll watch the second part, just to see if there are any other safety hazards that we haven't noticed in our daily lives."

"Damn it, my bathtub is pretty much the same as Todd's. I'm really worried that I'll get strangled to death in the bathtub someday. I'm going to have to remove the wire when I get back!"

"Oh, man, call a few more people when you're removing the wire. I'm really worried that you'll have an accident. Damn it, I feel like I'm going to have an accident when I drive home later!"

"I feel like I can't even get out of the theater. Will the billboard fall down?" an audience member next to him said. The three of them looked at each other and all laughed.

It was fine before I watched this movie, but after watching it I feel like there are safety hazards everywhere and I never know what might cost me my life.

"It looks like the response is pretty good." said Jennifer Connelly, who was sitting next to Huang Ze.

"You acted well."

“Pfft.” Jennifer Connelly smiled. “Isn’t it because the screenwriter is good? The concept of our film is really amazing. I didn’t expect that things that can be found everywhere in life can be combined to make a horror film.”

……

"A+, this horror movie is very special." A young man gave the highest rating without hesitation when facing the investigator's questionnaire. "It is very different from the movies I have seen before. There are no overly bloody and violent scenes, and it is not all about killing. Huang did not disappoint me!"

"B, it's a decent movie. I can't say it's bad, but I just feel the killing isn't satisfying enough. Oh, maybe the killing of the Grim Reaper is more satisfying. All in all, I saw the restrained side of Huang in it. Maybe it's because Huang is an oriental."

"B, but I will watch it a second time. There are many details in it that I need to watch again to confirm. Also, if possible, I hope there will be a second part. I want to see how it will develop next. In the end, did the hero and heroine really escape the pursuit of death?"

"Oh, and that corpse collector, who is he? The god of death? Or maybe he is the previous male protagonist, but he has escaped from the pursuit of the god of death."

"A+, Huang is awesome, I'm a big fan of his, I'll give A+ to any Huang movie."

There were tens of thousands of questionnaires in total.

After summarizing all the results, we finally got an overall evaluation of B+.

This is the result of expanding the scope of the investigation.

It may not seem high, but if you consider that this is a horror movie, it is a very good result.

After all, horror films are a niche genre, and it is difficult to gain positive reviews from the vast majority of audiences.

Warner knows this, so it is quite satisfied with such evaluation.

Everything just waits for the box office results to come out.

Next Tuesday.

The box office statistics for the first three days of the weekend have been fully released.

"Final Destination" grossed $13 million on more than 1,600 screens.

Over ten million!
The most important thing is that this number represents the great potential of this film.

In addition, it is now a less popular season, and in order to gain revenue, theaters began to add more theaters for the screening of "Final Destination". By the three days of the second weekend, the number of theaters had climbed to more than 2,100.
