Chapter 1547 One is over, another is coming
No matter how well the movie argues about reputation, the box office will not lie. Although "Pokemon Green Caterpillar Evolution!" created a box office record of 0.00 points, the subsequent box office declined all the way compared to the previous work. In the third week of its release, the weekly box office dropped to less than $100 million, becoming the Pokemon series with the fastest box office decline in history.
At this time, "The Evolution of Pokemon Green Caterpillar!" in the Beimi market, the box office was just over 400 million US dollars, which was the lowest in history.
"The Evolution of Pokemon Green Caterpillar!" seems to be a Waterloo, and it is also a good thing for American movies to applaud.
They had thought that the loss of "Fantastic Four" was an accidental failure.
Now it seems that the magic of Daqian movies is about to end, and the story of their desire to create box office myths in every movie is about to end, which makes American movies, who have been suppressed by Daqian movies in recent years, feel very happy.
The Oscars jury committee was also very happy. They were destined to be mortal enemies. There was nothing in the world that made them happier than watching Daqian lose their defeat.
But while these people were happy, they seemed to have never expected that even though the total box office in North America was only over 400 million US dollars, this was still the top five movies in North America that could enter the top five box office rankings in 1998. Daqian is not losing money!
What's more, with the end of "The Evolution of Pokemon Green Caterpillar!", Daqian's "Lord of the Rings·The Envoy of the Rings" will also be released worldwide.
Filmmakers generally don’t like the release of Lord of the Rings.
First of all, the original work of Lord of the Rings. Although it is famous overseas in the world and has a large number of fans, Lord of the Rings is a fantasy work, with the main characters in it including dwarves, elves, dragons, wizards, orcs, tree people, etc. There are too many strange races.
In addition, the various scenes inside are extremely magical. If these things are to be displayed in the movie, the special effects and technical level required is really too high.
It is extremely difficult to restore it perfectly.
Don’t think that the Lord of the Rings has a lot of fans, so the box office will have a high foundation. In fact, on the contrary, if there are more fans, there will be more trouble.
The Lord of the Rings is a well-known hardcore. The author Tolkien even created a language called the Elf Language for the sake of the Lord of the Rings, which shows the hardcoreness of this book.
So the fans of this book are also very hard-core, and they are well-known in every detail, and they can even fight because of it.
If there is any flaw in the movie "Lord of the Rings", it will probably be immediately criticized by angry fans, and the final box office defeat will be defeated.
Haven't you seen Daqian's "Pokemon·Splitting Evolution!" is because the reputation of fans in the later stage collapsed. Many fans who watched the movie complained about digging holes and not filling in the movie after returning home, which caused the box office to collapse in the later stage, which made Daqian's movie kneel for two consecutive times.
In fact, "Lord of the Rings" was published in 1955, but it was not released until now. With so much time in between, isn't there really no filmmaker who has watched this work?
Of course not, it’s just because everyone knows the difficulty of shooting this film, and no one dares to take over it.
After Daqian announced his investment in the filming of the "Lord of the Rings", many fans immediately jumped up to object, accusing Daqian of being a philistine filmmaker who did not understand the essence of "Lord of the Rings".
The movies they filmed will only ruin the original work of "Lord of the Rings", which is a evil deed that destroys the classics and must be stopped.
This is not empty talk. On the contrary, within a year, the United States headquarters of Daqian Movie has had more than 10 parades of fans of the Lord of the Rings, and the largest number is 3,000.
This is not a fool, the Lord of the Rings in another world has the same fate. Since the project was announced, it has been criticized by fans from all walks of life.
Even if the movie was released and achieved unimaginable box office achievements, it was still criticized for not understanding the Lord of the Rings, destroying the Lord of the Rings and so on.
Sometimes fans are a very strange group. They always love what they like and recommend these to everyone, hoping to praise them to the sky.
However, stopping various development actions is also the behavior of fans. The Lord of the Rings has not been able to adapt a movie for 40 years, and the biggest contributor is these fans.
Even the comics, fan-like things related to Lord of the Rings are not allowed. Even if a publisher wants to correct or modify some obviously wrong texts, it is stopped by angry fans.
They believe that these words are not mistakes, but are deliberately done by the author. If the editor does not understand the Lord of the Rings, don’t destroy the classics.
In short, fans are the ones who promote their works to heaven, but those who suppress further development of their works are also the ones who suppress the work.
Back to the topic, it is precisely because of these many reasons that the whole world is not optimistic about "The Lord of the Rings", but this cannot prevent the premiere of "The Lord of the Rings" in the United States.
The box office was released at midnight on the day of the premiere, with less than $20 million, which was lower than the one in "Pokemon". This shield made many people feel relieved and felt that "Lord of the Rings" was a sure thing.
This also made many staff members of Daqian Movie worried, but our boss Jia didn't care at all.
Because unlike many movies that have been modified by Boss Jia before, Boss Jia has not made any changes in this movie "Lord of the Rings".
From the movie to the main actors, they were all shot by the original cast of another world. After watching the movie in advance, Boss Jia felt that it was basically exactly the same as in his previous life, and there was no difference.
So, a movie that was very popular in the previous life would not be able to fail in this world.
Sure enough, although the results of the Zero Oct Festival were not satisfactory, everyone who came out of the cinema had an excitement on their faces, wanting to tell everyone what a magical world they saw.
So on the second day, the box office of "Lord of the Rings" began to grow, and the box office on the first day finally reached 60 million US dollars. Then, the box office on the second day exceeded 90 million US dollars, and it directly won more than 200 million US dollars in the first weekend.
This made all those who were not optimistic about before have another ominous premonition, and a whirlwind gradually formed all over the world.
