Director’s Legend

Chapter 280: [Box Office Gone Red]

Some stories are suitable for everyone to watch, such as "500 Days with Summer", and some stories are only suitable for two people, such as this DVD called "The Proposal Ceremony of Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu". The cinema prohibits photography and photography. There is only such a picture recorded in DV about the love story between Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu.

I never thought about showing affection to the outside world. Naturally, such a DVD became the secret between Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu. Occasionally, the lazy time in the afternoon will bring out the young and frivolous you and me.

As for the outside world, it is known that Shao Shuaijun proposed to Li Xiuxiu, and after a wave of waves, he returned to peace. The director is not a big star after all. Everyone looks at the director's marriage and feelings very lightly. It doesn't matter who he marries, who he loves, as long as he makes good movies.

In the Santa Monica villa, the two enjoyed the sweetness of the two-person world and responded to their friends' blessings one by one.

And outside, everything continues.

"No Man’s Land" was screened in the United States, and the results were general. The Chinese in North America supported them and watched a lot of them in cinemas. However, after all, there were too many Asians implicit. In the American audience, the response was not very intense. It can be said to be unsatisfactory. This result is a big blow to the expectant Ning Hao, Xu Zeng and Huang Bo.

There is no hope for a large-scale release.

In the United States throughout September, the box office was not satisfactory. From September 5th to 7th, the total box office of the top ten North American weekends was only 80 million. The second place is "Silent Fire", which premiered this week, with US$7.8 million, adapted from the Thai movie of the same name, starring Nicholas Cage, and directed by the Pang brothers who were born and raised in Hong Kong but mixed in the Thai film scene. It's a pity that the box office failed miserably, and it almost became Nicholas Cage's worst film.

Followed by the 4-week "Tropical Surprise" for $7.5 million, the 3-week "School Bunny" for $5.9 million and the 8-week "Batman: The Dark Knight" for $5.7 million. The Dark Knight North America has accumulated $437 million in box office and $940 million worldwide. Nolan's title of world-class director is as stable as Mount Tai. At the same time, Shao Shuaijun's "Inception" was kicked out of the top ten in the world.

The record is used to surpass, whether it was "Inception" stepped on "Finding Nemo" or now "Batman: The Dark Knight", it is understandable.

However, this week’s champion belongs to "500 Days with Summer". The North American box office was off-season, and it was released in 3268 theaters across the United States. It still won a box office of 32.09 million U.S. dollars and became the box office weekend champion.

""500 Days in the Desert" hits the severe cold season, sweeping away the weak box office in September and reaching the top spot, injecting a boost into the off-season movie market. "The Hollywood Reporter not only reported on the movie box office, but also gave a detailed evaluation. In the movie, "Tom is a boy who believes in love, and Summer is a girl who does not believe in love. When a boy and a girl meet, an unusual 500-day story is created. Shao Shuaijun has a very delicate grasp of the emotional extension. Although some plots are somewhat lengthy, it is still an outstanding romance film."

"The director proposed at the premiere, and the box office on the weekend was happy to cheer. On the box office this week, the small-cost movie "500 Days with Summer" dominated the list with absolute advantage. Shao Shuaijun proved to the world that as a commercial director, he is Asia The strongest."-"Film Express".

"This movie is as imaginative as its male protagonist, and it is a very wonderful romantic comedy."-"New York Times".

"It seems that taking a beautiful woman as the core of the whole movie is a broken section, but we are fortunate to see Shao Shuaijun making a fresh taste."-film film website.

""500 Days with Summer" is as good as its title. This movie will make you laugh, break your heart, and make you think."-"The Voice of New York."

"Fantastic music, beautiful pictures, excellent performances by handsome guy Gordon and beautiful Scarlett, and Shao Shuaijun's successful director style, dedicated two wonderful hours for us."-"Sound Magazine".

The sound of beautiful beauty, perhaps I have seen more popcorn blockbusters in the summer, and the digestive system needs a different taste. The media and film critics gave enthusiastic comments and repetitions to the small and fresh "500 Days with Summer". It also refreshed the vigor of the movie in the cold September.

The score on the IMDB directly rushed to the height of 8.6 points. For a film that tells the story of a breakup, the plot is flat, only focusing on love, and there is no deep rationale. It is more than a great score to achieve such a score. victory.

Luo Jier gave 9 points: "Meet the right person at the right time. It's not too early or too late. No one knows who's cooking, but it feels like you can't deceive people. If you think that person is right, then TA It must be your dish."

Love Jiao Cerf gave 10 points: "If I was looked at by Tom with such eyes, I would definitely fall in love with him. The picture is so beautiful, I'm intoxicated."

Chris Lake gave 9 points, and a not-so-short evaluation: “One of the countless people in this world who has experienced such a story. At the beginning of the story, isn’t it familiar? You think they ended up in Together? I don’t want to. I hope Tom meets another girl and starts again. This is life. The happy ending is unreal. They are really separated, and that’s real. Therefore, I love this one. The movie, it is very real, it is very encouraging, it can tell all the children who are still bewildered that he/she is not your true love, not your only, you just need time. This is what I like "500 Days with Summer "s reason."

"The plot is very simple. This is a story about a girl who has doubted love since childhood and was deeply in love with a boy who believed in true love and destiny since childhood; this is a story about this boy who finds love and falls deeply into love. ; This is a coincidence story about whether love is destined or inspired by an instant. This is a movie worth watching again.'This is not a love story, this is a story about love'. This is a sunny movie. The movie, I was moved. The romantic story was delicately edited, wise, humorous, delicate, and a little sweet. I was moved by Tom and Summer." Little Jack gave 10 points very generously.

James's soul gave 8 points, but he said: "Very different style, not a comedy ending, so I don't like it."

Lilith is even more straightforward, 9 points: "I like this ending."

Maybe it was just like the beginning of the movie, from the very beginning, Shao Shuaijun didn't tell a love story, so at the end the audience watched the movie. For this incomplete story, those who like it will be scored online, and those who don't like it will be left indifferently. For almost the entire IMDB score, there is no unqualified score below 6 points.

From the beginning, the movie was not positioned as a box office bomb, but it was exceptionally attractive.

On Rotten Tomatoes, 106 reviews, 98 passing, freshness 92, very fresh. Yahoo's overall score is also a perfect A.

This young Hollywood The rookie has successfully adapted to everything here. He and Christopher Nolan are the biggest discoveries in Hollywood." Roger Albert, who has recovered well, has become his film critic again.

Without the outbreak of "Juneo" when it was released, "500 Days with Shao Mo" has been determined from the very beginning to conquer September, Hollywood and overseas with its unique charm. When "No Man's Land" ended in a hurry, when Shao Shuaijun traveled between Hong Kong and Mumbai, his life continued as usual after he proposed marriage.

The momentum of "500 Days with Summer" in North America has not stopped.

"The incredible leader of Chinese directors, Shao Shuaijun tells everyone that entering Hollywood is not only possible for big productions, but also for small costs!"

"The young director loves white-collar women, and the box office is so sweet."-A domestic tabloid casually mentioned the box office, and then made up Shao Shuaijun's romantic history with a lot of space, playing a sensational card.

"Five years ago, Shao Shuaijun was a dead corpse in Hengdian, wandering in Hengdian with a salary of 50 yuan a day. And Li Xiuxiu has not graduated from university. Four years ago, Shao Shuaijun had no money to hire an actor, and went to battle by himself, using "Buried Alive" He won the first pot of gold in his life. At this moment, Li Xiuxiu followed her sister and embarked on the road of an agent.

Also four years ago, he shot "Crazy Stone" with the first pot of gold, and also created a career belonging to Shao Shuaijun, a small studio. It was in this studio that Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu started their romantic journey hand in hand in their lives. Starting from "Source Code", this studio has blossomed with unparalleled brilliance.

At the same time, they have experienced some unknown stories. Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu have their own company-Dream Entertainment Company. In the four years of their lives together, I am afraid they would never dream that one day, a small company will become an entertainment oligarch, a multinational company-Dream Entertainment Group.

"Painted Skin" and "33 Days of Broken Relationship" are the two cornerstones of Shao Shuaijun's growth, as well as the opportunity for the rise of dream entertainment. If Shao Shuaijun truly fell in love with Li Xiuxiu, it was in the frustration of "The Night Watcher". As the old saying goes, behind every successful man, there is a woman.

This woman is behind Shao Shuaijun. When "Inception" swept the world, Shao Shuaijun picked up the microphone and said that he did not make this movie for anyone, just for one person, Li Xiuxiu. Nowadays, the young man has grown up to be rich and handsome, and the young girl has also cultivated into Bai Fumei.

Finally, with the love comedy "500 Days with Summer", the lovers finally got married, and Shao Shuaijun successfully proposed to Li Xiuxiu. For more than four years of running hand-in-hand, there have been many ups and downs on the road of life, and how many pairs of people can achieve a positive result. Let us sincerely wish these young people, don't get lost on the road, look up to the front, everything will be beautiful. "

The media’s overwhelming follow-up reports, coupled with the super momentum of the North American box office, "500 Days with Summer" under the slogan of the US version "33 Days of Broken Relationship", set off a frenzy in the Mainland. Although not as strong as "33 Days of Broken Love", it still got 60 million yuan in the box office in the first week.

The star user Wu Yuxin gave a high score of 9 points: "I came to Joseph. I sympathized with this woman at first, but later discovered that she was a born devil. No woman in the world owes a man kick more than her! Irresponsible and casual, both female and male, are terrible...but it’s okay to meet the devil.

Yingna_ou also gave four stars: "After watching the movie, I hate Scarlett so much, how can I play with Joseph so much. From "Inception", I hate her very much, and she's a genius at all. I don't know who Shao Shuaijun is. It's not that the brain is flooded, or the worm is on the brain. I have worked with Scarlett both times. Isn't Li Xiuxiu jealous?

Regarding yingna_ou's rating, the ill-looking monk clicked on it to no avail, leaving a message saying: "Men are not bad and women do not love, you know what a fart."

Gu Yan = dead followed by a message: "Do you have a video of Shao Shuaijun proposing to Li Xiuxiu? I really want to watch it."

"Calm down, it's up to me to wait for the fart people." The immortal also left a crazy calm message.

The big mouse who knows magic supports the view upstairs: "That's right, go to the movie, where is the crooked building."
