"Deadly Christmas Eve" - ??No. 11 - 1550 homes in the first week 3,043 - 4,716, 7836, 0, 76716 focus
A total of 5 new films were released in North American movie theaters this week, including the family comedy "Full House", the romantic musical "Rent", the romantic comedy "Friends", and the two crime comedy "Crazy for Love" ¡± and ¡°Christmas Eve,¡± they all performed dismally.
None of them had a decent box office. "Rent" with a production fee of 4,000 yuan only had 19.3 million in nine days, and the best-performing "Full House" only had that little.
"There is really no way. During this Thanksgiving period, if the whole family wants to watch a blockbuster, "Harry Potter" is the best choice; if you want to watch a realistic comedy, why not watch LMS, which has a dream lineup and an explosive reputation? And "Walking with the Song".
These five poorly reviewed new films have no advantages at all. The studios actually had little expectations for them, so they arranged them this way, but such poor results are still unbearable.
This is a year of mixed joy and sorrow. "Pride and Prejudice" and "Brokeback Mountain" are the happy parts, while "Christmas Eve" and LMS are both sad parts.
"Christmas Day" is the worst new film this week, with only 6.02 million in nine days, 46% freshness and 43% likes, which is even worse than "Jumanji 2".
Its co-producers are Ron Yexa and Albert Berger. They were the original repurchasers of the LMS script. They sold the script to Focus, but they later failed to match Ye Wei's 500,000 yuan. They also had the opportunity to serve as the second and third producers of LMS, but they were kicked away by Ye Wei because they wanted to seize power.
The current situation is really ironic and embarrassing!
Jeksa and Berger became famous because of "Cold Mountain", but the failure of the two films this year ruined everything.
Their other film "Queen Bee Season" (14 million production fee) was released on November 11 and distributed by Fox Searchlight. Its first week was also the first week of LMS, but it had 21 theaters. Three weeks later, it expanded to 277 theaters. The box office did not break one million, only 901,818, and that was it.
Because its evaluation is also very bad, with 43% freshness and 35% love, it can be said that it has not attracted that much attention.
It might have been different if Dakota Fanning had been cast as "Eliza". Director Scott McGee thought that another young actress, Flora Cross, was more like Juliet, who played "Eliza's" mother. -Binoche, so he chose Kroos.
As a result, Fanning escaped a failure, and Cross, who made his screen debut, became the scapegoat. The future is really difficult. Sometimes, luck is so important!
The failure of the two producers has nothing to do with luck. The two films cost a combined 30 million, and both were completely wasted. They have nothing to do with the box office, and they have nothing to do with this year's awards season. For two films that were coveting trophies during the project development stage, this was a complete failure, with no room left at all.
The two people¡¯s industry status has fallen to the bottom. They barely have one chance, but they fail again and are eliminated.
¡°If they didn¡¯t want to seize power and joined the LMS crew, then now
Rising above the clouds in the sky!
After this week, LMS officially surpassed the 127 million of "Dumb and Dumber" in 1994, not counting inflation, and became the highest-grossing road movie in North American history.
At the same time, Ye Wei¡¯s previous box office declaration on ¡°The Daily Show¡± officially came true, 130 million? Just a little more.
The recent reports on viy are really crazy. According to reports from hitfix.com, many great directors known for their black humor and cults, including the Coen brothers, Quentin Tarantillo, Guy Ritchie, etc., have joined in to praise lms and the prodigy camp.
At the age of 30, the talented guy Guy Ritchie, who became famous with the movie "Two Smoking Barrels", said: "I like everything about it. It would be better if I saw it earlier. It would make my movie more passionate. ".
The 42-year-old genius Quentin Tarantillo said: "I have watched all the road movies, but I have never been as satisfied as this one. It is not even violent. It is not "Bonnie and Clyde" "genre, but it came at the right time," said Ye Wei, "He is a master, like a character in a myth. He has made the director's profession so exciting that young girls will all applaud, and they will be like 'oh-my-'. god, he's-so-cool!'"
When it comes to black humor and loser movies, the Coen brothers are a pair of masters who have to be mentioned.
48-year-old Ethan Cohen said: "As an audience, watching a movie about a loser is much more interesting than watching a successful person like Elvis Presley. What a loser needs is miraculous good luck or willingness to accept fate. Courage, or keep trying until failure engulfs you. What LMS provides us is another kind of courage, the courage to accept failure but not fate.¡±
Joel Cohen, 51, said: "Losers always carry many heavy crosses. It is difficult to be confident and easy to self-loathing because people always tell you 'you are a loser' and you can't object." Ethan Coen interjected: "You will always fail in life, why do you care so much!"
¡°When it comes to Ye Wei, the two brothers¡¯ admiration is even more palpable.
Joel said: ¡°A career can easily turn into a career. When you first start out, everything is new and exciting, and you¡¯ll never have that experience again. So in a way, you¡¯re there as soon as you start. It's going downhill. Although your ability may be getting higher and higher, the movies you make will only become a professional product and you will not see any passion. Ye Wei will start to envy the young people very much. "Early, I am moved by his passion, and I hope he can keep it up for thirty years before surrendering, so that we can have many good movies."
"There are not many people who are qualified to make movies artistic and romantic." Ethan said, "The current Ye Wei is definitely one. If this continues in a few years, we should make his biopic." Joel interjected: "It's not about losers, right?" Ethan laughed and said: "Try to shoot a genius subject, maybe you can get some passion back."
It¡¯s not just the great directors who are praising, reports, comments, and special topics are like snowflakes flying, and various voices are intertwined:
"Ten million people have heard the f-word-mpaa, a great spectacle presented by independent films", "Viy has created the most incredible prodigy with absolute talent", "You can call him little Steven Spielberg, also You can just call him Ye Wei, he will be something that makes people crazy for many years to come."
"When old enemies and old friends Jared Hess and Jerusha Hess' new film "Crazy Priest" has just finished filming, 17-year-old Ye Wei has already shocked the world twice."
¡°Whether he becomes the youngest Oscar nominee for Best Director or not, it is certain that viy will occupy an increasingly important position on the film stage.¡±
"The new pop idol! An online event to support Ye Weijin's Oscar signature campaign was launched"
Whether Ye Wei is a pop idol has yet to be verified, but he is already the idol of many young idols.
Needless to say, there are well-known old news like Emma Roberts. Recently, another Emma, ??Emma Watson, also expressed her admiration for Ye Wei. She talked about her growth and future in an exclusive interview with "Entertainment Weekly" expectations, saying: "I want to play some roles in literary and artistic dramas, and I hope to work with an outstanding young director like Ye Wei."
There are opportunities, and it doesn¡¯t mean that if you act in the "Harry Potter" series, you can't act in other movies.
The independent family film "December Boys" starring Daniel Radcliffe is currently being filmed. This is his first film starring outside of the HP series. Rupert Grint also starred in an independent drama "Driving Lessons" in June this year, which will be released next year.
But there are not many opportunities, and their high visibility has both advantages and disadvantages, because unlike other stars, their own names are actually lower than "Harry", "Ron" and "Hermione". When the audience sees Red Cliff would exclaim: "What the hell, isn't this Harry?" So not every crew is willing to use them.
In addition, each episode of HP takes a very long time to shoot. They also have to take care of their studies. It is also because there is some free time between April and May that they can shoot other movies.
But Emma Watson hasn¡¯t yet. While Radcliffe and Grint are both trying their hand at independent films, whether she will act in something has always attracted much attention from the outside world.
Now it¡¯s clear that she wants to act in Ye Wei¡¯s movie, and she¡¯s making a statement.
The reason for this statement is obviously related to the recent news that Ye Wei¡¯s new project will focus on girl themes. Competition"The Lovely Bones" is already known to fans. Just after the Thanksgiving holiday, he announced that he would take over "Soul Surfer", and this project has no conflict with TLB.
Bethany Hamilton¡¯s team spokesman Dechi Hofstetter told the media happily: ¡°This true story has found the most suitable receiver.¡±
Bethenny herself, who had long said on the espy podium that she was a fan of Ye Wei, also happily said: "Yi's movies inspired me, and during the exchange of adapting my story into a script, he inspired me again." I'm so honored to be photographed by him."
Ye Wei called Bethany¡¯s experience a real and exciting miracle, and he was deeply fascinated by her strong optimism.
As for why he focuses on teenage girls, he joked that it was because he was a young boy and quoted a classic line from the old road movie "Beyond the Whirlpool" (1947): "Women are miracles because they make all men look ordinary. "
Regarding viy¡¯s surprises and witticisms, the media and the public are no longer surprised that he speaks like this. Otherwise, would he still be Ye Wei?
The "Personal Quotes" column of his movie actor profile in imdb has more than a hundred entries. Generally, it would be great for a popular and "talkative" filmmaker to have fifty entries, and there are basically not many. The article is considered a classic, it just said something.
But these "viy said", almost every sentence exudes a charming atmosphere of humor, inspiration, wisdom, poisonous tongue, frivolity, rebellion, personality, etc.
"I've missed something" When Liz Olsen browsed the imdb page, she thought that she would just slide the mouse wheel and it would go by. Unexpectedly, she actually looked at the articles one by one, and some even the entire article. , the more she looked at it, the clearer she felt: I admire this guy.
"I already have my mind on apologizing, and I will never apologize for this." She was hit hard by this sentence. She liked it so much. It was calm, rebellious, and masculine. The first half of the sentence was like "Apologise." I feel uneasy after thinking about it, but I have thought about it." The second half of the sentence was "I will never apologize."
After reading all his quotes and related inquiries here, Liz¡¯s feeling is that this man is really-cool! really-e!
On the fourth weekend of the release of LMS, viy fans have another happy moment, another typical Ye Wei, and another typical Yunique Culler!
That breath of bad breath has long been exhaled, but you might as well continue to lash out at those who once looked down on you!
There is no need to yell, just say a few words with a smile to shake the world.
This fucking world.
¡ù¡ù
Ye Wei: "I'm sorry, everyone. Regarding the North American box office estimate of "Little Miss Sunshine", it turns out that I was really wrong. I apologize to everyone, I was wrong."
The box office of LMS suddenly reached 130 million in three weeks after its release. An apology statement was posted on the blog.
Yunik Culler: "Speaking of which, do you think you could give me my $20,000 in cash? My concern with giving a check is that I would have to settle it with my accountant, which might put me in a lot of trouble. High, uh, taxes"
