Make predictions...

Because "Independence Day" broke all fixed concepts and rewritten history with an unstoppable momentum. Starting from July 4th, 1996, it opened a new era in Hollywood. Starting from the single-day box office blowout on Thursday, "Independence" Every footprint of "Sunday" is so shocking, and after experiencing the empty alleys on Saturday, it is obvious that the movie-watching frenzy on Sunday still hasn't subsided.

Since "Independence Day" was only screened in 3,200 theaters, it couldn't satisfy the craze of empty streets on Saturday. Therefore, the strong momentum of the box office on Sunday did not weaken too much, and the continuous strength continued to stretch. Go on, once again swept through the box office data of 26 million US dollars! Although this data is down a bit from Saturday, it is higher than Friday's single-day box office, which fully demonstrates the strength of "Independence Day" in the first week of screenings.

It was 25 million on Friday, 29 million on Saturday, and 26 million on Sunday. This is the box office answer sheet finally handed in on Independence Day.

Even if you don’t consider Thursday’s box office data, this is undoubtedly perfect. Saturday’s valley peak, Sunday followed, and Friday ranked third with a slight disadvantage. This means that the audience flow into the cinema is continuous and stable, regardless of professional film critics. The audience's enthusiasm for the movie can be seen from the comments of people.

This is the true voice of the audience.

The box office data for the three days of the weekend is already blinding everyone's eyes. Even the most clever politician can hardly say any rebuttals in front of the iron-cold data. And after considering that the box office on Thursday was as high as 36 million, the box office performance of "Independence Day" is not only outstanding, it is absolutely amazing! Even shocking the world!

Although the "Chicago Tribune" once horribly predicted that the box office of "Independence Day" was as high as 30 million on the day of its premiere, and it was extremely close to the real result, even the "Chicago Tribune" did not dare to lose heart in the prediction. Movies will still usher in an incredible explosion during the three days of the weekend. They thought that after the first day of blowout on "Independence Day", the three days of the weekend are promising to break the box office record of "Terminator 2" Independence Day of 4,300. Ten thousand dollars, a perfect ending.

This is a normal law, the normal law of the entire North American film market and the entire economic market. Therefore, the "Chicago Tribune" cannot be blamed for its conservativeness. In fact, their prediction is already a super bold idea to break all North American box office film history records.

But what about the facts?

The fact is that "Independence Day" broke the single-day box office record of film history for four consecutive days within the first four days of its premiere. It swept across the army and refreshed all the weekend box office records of all premiere film history in North America. The posture of the king staged a good show of the king coming!

"Independence Day" premiere weekend any day of the single-day box office, you can easily explode the previous record holder "Batman Forever", and slam a record underfoot, not only creating the highest premiere in film history The single-day box office, the highest non-premier single-day box office in movie history, and the top four highest single-day box office records in movie history are firmly in hand. In addition, the single-day box office of the highest Independence Day in movie history, the highest box office in movie history on Thursday, the highest box office in movie history on Friday, the highest box office of science fiction movie premiere in movie history... All these records are undoubtedly crowned "Independence Day." "The name, the history manual of the North American movie box office has completed the dynasty change in an instant!

In the end, "Independence Day" received 36 million U.S. dollars in the box office on Independence Day, while the premiere weekend saw crazy sweeps of 80 million U.S. dollars in the box office. In the first week of the show, it won 116 million. Million-dollar box office in North America!

This data makes "Independence Day" the first film in film history to break 100 million at the box office in the first week, easily breaking the $79 million in the first week maintained by "Jurassic Park" in 1994. Box office record, and naturally became the fastest box office movie in film history to break through 100 million US dollars!

At that time, "Jurassic Park" was released on Wednesday, with a box office of 32 million U.S. dollars midweek, and a box office of 47 million US dollars for three days on weekends. In the end, it accumulated 79 million U.S. dollars in the first week, creating an incredible record. Many people think that this record will need to wait for many years to be broken, but they did not expect that the speed of this day is far beyond people's imagination.

How powerful this result is, in fact, it can be seen from the box office data of single libraries.

At present, the North American film market calls more than 700 theaters to be released in the United States, and 1,000 theaters can be released on a large scale. The current box office record for large-scale releases is maintained by Jurassic Park. Yes, two thousand four hundred theaters released a single box office of 19,600 dollars, and 47 million dollars were harvested in three days on the weekend!

Now, "Independence Day" has undoubtedly set a new record. The box office revenue of 25,000 US dollars for a single library, under the bonus of 3,200 theaters, broke 8,000 for the three days of the weekend. Ten thousand dollars at the box office. Not only did it break the record of "Jurassic Park", it also increased this record by nearly 30%. If you consider that "Independence Day" is still breaking the film history record of "3,200 The box office record created by "Cinemaline" is even more incredible, showing the power of the empty alleys throughout the weekend to the fullest.

Every data of "Independence Day" is undoubtedly written and recorded, and with absolute strength, all the media can only witness all this in a sluggish manner.

With US$116 million, "Independence Day" took only four days to achieve a height that countless other movies could not reach in a few months. This has made any language lose its brilliance. The box office data of the first week not only allowed the book cost of "Independence Day" to be directly recovered, but also allowed Hugo's $20 million salary to easily realize its value. Although the 20th century Fox spent almost sky-high prices on publicity expenses, But people believe that it is only a matter of time before the "Independence Day" becomes profitable. Perhaps the profit model will be launched next week. Now people are more concerned about: How much profit can this movie bring to Twentieth Century Fox?

The debate about the high-investment and high-return film production model is bound to continue, including "Independence Day" itself. The excellent box office in the first week is only the first step. As a commercial film, it will continue to No one can predict what kind of box office miracle can be created during the monthly release schedule.

After the glorious premiere of "Jurassic Park", people thought it had the ability to become the second film after "Alien e.t", which broke 400 million in box office—it was also the box office of the first film in the first round of broadcast. 100 million works, but the result is still disappointing. The final North American box office of "Jurassic Park" stopped at 357 million, which is an extremely long distance from the 400 million sky moat.

The same is true for "Independence Day" now.

What's more, before the "Independence Day", the failure of the "Ace Specialist" has caused people to question the 20 million club. This is a controversy that cannot be eliminated in the short term.

But even so, the performance of the "Independence Day" premiere weekend easily broke 100 million yuan still gave Hollywood producers incomparable confidence, especially the outstanding performance of Industrial Light and Magic to make the computer special effects to be named-the fault is never the technology itself, and People who use technology, computer special effects can pile up the failure of "Future Water World", but can also highlight the victory of "Independence Day".

Not to mention Hugo’s unique appeal. As the most popular actor in North America today, Hugo’s appeal to audiences has reached a height that is difficult for others, whether it is the Tom-G. Ruth, Brad Pitt, or Tom Hanks and Harrison Ford, who are very popular in the audience, can't be compared with Hugo.

The huge box office success of the "Independence Day" premiere weekend at least proves one thing. The potential of the North American film market has not yet been tapped. Once upon a time, people thought it was almost impossible to achieve a box office of 100 million in the first week, but now "Independence" This is how history was made. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Therefore, it is conceivable that with the release process of "Independence Day", this Hollywood industry battle will continue noisily.

However, before the arrival of further controversy, the success of the "Independence Day" premiere weekend is needless to say. The first week box office of 116 million US dollars, not to mention surpassing, even if you want to compare It is an impossible task.

Therefore, in the first week of July, there is almost no suspense in the North American movie weekend box office rankings. To be precise, as early as Thursday's Independence Day, the suspense has been killed in the cradle. In the end, "Independence Day" easily won the box office champion of this week. What's even more incredible is that the total box office for the three days of weekends in North America this week was US$150 million, and one work on "Independence Day" contributed 8,000. Ten thousand dollars, more than 50% of the contribution, even the use of the word "sweeping" is not enough to describe the strength of "Independence Day".

Unique, perhaps the word can be used to describe the Independence Day holiday that has just passed. Because of the existence of the movie "Independence Day", the entire North American film market has undergone tremendous changes. However, the first week of the box office of 116 million U.S. dollars was just a prologue. The real wave of madness was officially staged in the second week.
