If the evildoer of Captain Jack Sparrow has successfully changed the media's attitude from questioning to admiration; then the strength of "Pirates of the Caribbean" at the box office has directly demonized the charm of Captain Jack Sparrow. , let the media fall below the spectacles all over the place, and watched this "questioned" commercial film with astonishment, making waves in the summer box office charts of 2019.

The summer season is definitely not an exaggeration to describe it as war. No one is optimistic about the box office competitiveness of "Pirates of the Caribbean" in the summer. Before the movie was released, it was because of constant doubts about the movie. After the movie was released, it was because of a clear understanding of the competition for summer slots. In the past two months, apart from Pixar's "Finding Nemo," no film has topped the North American box-office charts.

When "Pirates of the Caribbean" was released, last week's North American box office champion was "Thunderbolt", while "Finding Nemo", "Hulk" and "Twenty-Eight Days Changed" were still at the top of the list. And "Pirates of the Caribbean" had three big-budget commercials released in the same week: "The Terminator," Legally Blonde, and "Sinbad the Seven Seas."

Arnold Schwarzenegger's world-famous "Terminator" series finally ushered in the third film in the series after 12 years. Although James Cameron no longer serves as a director and only serves as a producer, the golden sign of Arnold Schwarzenegger still made this movie, which Warner Bros. invested 200 million US dollars in, a summer vacation this year. The most watched box office bomb.

In 2001, "Legal Blonde" made Reese Witherspoon a new generation of American sweethearts, and the pink blonde and Anne Hathaway became the new favorite of American audiences. This time, Reese Witherspoon strikes again with a sequel. The 20 million investment in the year brought in $100 million at the box office... MGM laughed, and the salary soared from $1 million to $1,500. The $10,000 Reese - Witherspoon was able to surprise again, and the media attracted much attention.

In addition, the animation "The Legend of Sinbad of the Seven Seas" produced by DreamWorks and based on the story in "A Thousand and One Nights" is only one of the two top actors Brad Pitt and Catherine Zeta-Jones participated in the dubbing of this one. The gimmick is enough to make everyone look at it. In addition, Pixar and Disney, who turned against each other because of the failure of "Silver Island" and the success of "Finding Nemo"... also ended their previous cooperation period. As another animation giant, DreamWorks launched this time. New works can achieve breakthroughs, and even beat the strength of "Finding Nemo" at the box office, which cannot be ignored.

It can be said that there is no weaker among the movies released in the summer. In addition, the North American movie market in July is really lively with the investment of 140 million US dollars "Pirates of the Caribbean".

The first week..."Terminator was strong, with a $62 million weekend to Warner Bros. relief, while "Legal Blonde was a little weaker, but not to be underestimated at $34 million." , You must know that the investment in this film is only 45 million, which is basically a fraction of the cost of "Terminator's 200 million."

Relatively speaking, the Waterloo of "The Legend of Sinbad of the Seven Seas" surprised the media. The box office of only 11 million US dollars, not to mention the competition with "Finding Nemo", is not a high-level work at all. The media couldn't help but sigh that in the current situation, Pixar is getting stronger and stronger, and both DreamWorks and Disney are on the decline... It is estimated that the only thing that can be compared is Blue Sky Studio, which launched "Ice Age" last year.

"Pirates of the Caribbean" was released in its first week... It was broadcast in 3,000 theaters, and the weekend box office was 74 million US dollars. throne!

Generally speaking, if a movie earns 30 to 40 million US dollars at the box office, it will be able to win the championship of the North American box office chart. If it is an off-season, it is possible to win 20 million US dollars. However, in the summer, it is almost impossible. But looking at the strong box office of "Terminator and "Pirates of the Caribbean" makes people clearly feel the power of the summer season. Even if the Terminator won the box office of 60 million, it is still useless, and finally lost to the menacing "Pirates of the Caribbean". ".

In the comments of the media, it is said that the future soldier lost to Captain Jack Sparrow! This can also be seen as 56-year-old Arnold Schwarzenegger lost to 21-year-old Evan Bell. The changing times are obvious.

In the end, this week's North American box office charts turned into "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Terminator," "Legal Blonde," followed by "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Finding Nemo" and "Hulk". And the poor "Legend of the Seven Seas of Sinbad" only ranked seventh, and the "Twenty-Eight Days of Shocking Changes", which was only ahead of the applause, made people feel embarrassed.

In the next week, there will be only one commercial blockbuster released: "The Fallen Soldier", but this film, adapted from the comic of the same name, invested 80 million US dollars and dared to release it in the summer when the war is in full swing. It is definitely not just to watch the excitement come. Sean Connery, the most outrageous "James Bond" in history, has joined, and the original comic book is even more popular. This comic has a total of seven protagonists, all of whom are classic characters in 19th century literary masterpieces. , this kind of character setting that spans time and space has been wildly sought after by fans. This movie has also become a blockbuster that can be compared with "X-Men". Everyone knows that the "X-Men" that opened this summer's season can be said to be a big box office hit, and now the cumulative box office has exceeded 200 million US dollars.

It's a pity that the "Raiders" who joined the war failed to show enough impact, and the $32 million box office was not enough to pose a threat to "Pirates of the Caribbean". In its second week of release, "Pirates of the Caribbean" garnered $36 million at the box office amid the charisma of Captain Jack Sparrow, beating the latest "Raiders" to top the North American box office charts throne.

"Pirates of the Caribbean" has become the second film to win the North American box office championship after the "Finding Nemo" in the summer of this year. It must be known that the box office of "Finding Nemo" is now approaching the 300 million mark, becoming the year-end box office champion this year. strong competitor.

After "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Bad Boys", "Terminator," "Legal Blonde," "Finding Nemo", and "Thunderbolt" are in order.

At present, the cumulative box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean" has exceeded 100 million yuan, reaching 120 million yuan. However, judging from the box office trend in the first two weeks, the box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean" has dropped significantly, with a full 50% drop, which makes the media not optimistic about the successor ability of the box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean". What's more, this is the summer season, and the competition is extremely fierce. There are countless competitors appearing every week, which makes the audience overwhelmed. Therefore, the media generally believe that it is very difficult for the "Pirates of the Caribbean" box office to break the 200 million mark: Jack S. No matter how monstrous the charm of Captain Palo is, it will never be able to withstand the craze of the North American summer vacation.

In the third week of its release, as if to prove the media's predictions, the box office giant "Jedi Men is coming!" led by Will Smith!

Will Smith, Hollywood's most box-office actor, now his salary has reached an astonishing figure of 25 million, but I hope the studios are still waving their checks in the hope of getting the black superstar. favor.

Since last year, Evan Bell has been used by the media to comment and compare with Will Smith. Many media believe that Evan Bell has shown potential in terms of box office - attention, it's just potential - there are and Will-Smith qualifies on a par. Because Evan Bell created the miracle of "Ice Age" and "Sniper Phone Booth", which both exceeded 200 million at the box office.

This comparison peaked last month. Because Evan Bell pulled his teeth, defeated Will Smith, and won the hero of the movie "Enemies of Machinery". Twentieth Century Fox became the first one among many large film companies to eat crabs. They chose the rising star Evan Bell in the multiple-choice question of Evan Bell and Will Smith, and made important changes such as revising the script. A compromise was made on the issue. This definitely has a huge impact on the film industry.

For a time, almost everyone was discussing whether Evan Bell was qualified to challenge Will Smith. Neither of the two parties made a positive response. Evan Bell was disdainful, and Will Smith, a veteran who was popular in Hollywood, naturally did not need to care about a newcomer. The media has not come to a conclusion: because all speculations must speak with facts~www.readwn.com~ Now, the debate of the media has finally come to the test moment.

The "Pirates of the Caribbean" led by Evan Bell can be called the "dark horse" of this summer, mainly because Captain Jack Sparrow is too evil, and it is still a pirate theme that has been silent for nearly half a century, so the media will "dark horse". "The word was put on "Pirates of the Caribbean".

While Will Smith's "Jedi Boys" is a typical Hollywood sequel film, 1995's "Jedi Boys" was directed by Michael Bay, produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, and starred Will Smith and Martin Lawrence , at that time this group could only be said to be third-rate actors and second-rate directors, but with an investment of 23 million, it swept the box office of 140 million US dollars, which is a miracle. Now, Michael Bay, Will Smith , Martin - Lawrence has become a top Hollywood star "Jedi Men 2" prospects, optimistic by most of the media.

In addition to the duel between Evan Bell and Will Smith, Jerry Bruckheimer, the Hollywood gold medal producer "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Jedi Men, are both produced by him, and once again proved his Only, this time his left hand and right hand compete, who can win?
