No common sense can be applied to the premiere weekend of "Independence Day", no professional can make a reasonable explanation of the hot effect of "Independence Day", and no expert can make a prediction of the final box office performance of "Independence Day"...

Because "Independence Day" broke all fixed concepts and rewrites history with an unstoppable momentum. Starting from July 4, 1996, it opened a new era in Hollywood. Starting from the single-day box office boom on Thursday, every footprint of "Independence Day" was so shocking. After experiencing the crowds on Saturday, it was obvious that the movie viewing frenzy on Sunday still did not fade.

Since "Independence Day" was only released in 3,200 theaters, it could not meet the craze of 10,000 people on Saturday, so the strong momentum of Sunday's box office still did not weaken much, and the continuous strength continued to continue, sweeping the box office data of 26 million US dollars again! Although this data was a little lower than Saturday, it was higher than the single-day box office on Friday, showing the strength of "Independence Day" in the first week of release.

Two hundred and fifteen million on Friday, two hundred and nine million on Saturday, and two hundred and six million on Sunday, this is the final box office answer for Independence Day.

Even if Thursday's box office data is not considered, this is undoubtedly perfect. Saturday Gufeng is next on Sunday, and Friday is third with a slight disadvantage, which means that the audience traffic entering the cinema is continuous and stable. Regardless of the comments from professional film critics, the audience's enthusiasm for the film can be seen.

Just as Sophie's interview with the audience in the news program "Good Day Live" shows, putting aside the quality of the movie itself, just for the unprecedented visual effects, "Independence Day" is worthy of people's visit to the cinema to feast their eyes. This is the true voice of the audience.

The box office data for the three-day weekend has already blinded everyone's eyes. Even the most eloquent politicians are hard to say any rebuttal in the face of the iron and cold data. Considering that the box office of Thursday is as high as 36 million, the box office performance of "Independence Day" is not only outstanding, it is definitely amazing! Even shocking!

Although the Chicago Tribune once shockedly predicted that the box office of "Independence Day" was as high as 30 million on the day of its premiere, and was accurately approaching the real result, even the Chicago Tribune did not dare to lose heart and predict that the movie would still usher in an incredible explosion on the three days of the weekend. They originally thought that after the first day of Independence Day, the three days of the weekend were very promising to break the 43 million US dollars of Independence Day record of "Terminator 2" and ended perfectly.

This is a normal law, the entire North American film market and the entire economic market, so we cannot blame the conservativeness of the "Chicago Tribune". In fact, their predictions are already a bold idea to break all North American box office film history records.

But what is the truth?

The fact is that within the first four days of the first premiere, "Independence Day" performed with a performance that broke the single-day box office record of film history for four consecutive days, swept through thousands of troops to refresh all the box office records of film history's premiere weekend, and staged a good show of the arrival of the king in a screen-sinking manner!

The single-day box office on any day of the "Independence Day" premiere weekend will easily defeat the previous record holder "Batman forever", and stomp a record under his feet. Not only did it create the highest single-day box office in film history, the highest single-day box office in film history, the highest single-day box office in film history, the highest single-day box office in film history, the highest single-day box office in film history, the highest single-day box office in film history, the highest single-day box office in film history, the highest single-day box office in film history, the highest single-day box office in film history, the highest single-day box office in film history, and the highest science fiction movie premiere box office in film history... All these records are undoubtedly named "Independence Day". In an instant, the historical manual of North American movie box office completed the change of dynasty!

In the end, "Independence Day" earned $36 million in box office on Independence Day, while the premiere weekend swept through $80 million in box office in the three days, and won $116 million in North American box office in the first week of its release!

This data makes "Independence Day" the first movie in film history to have a box office of over 100 million in the first week, easily breaking the box office record of $79 million in the first week maintained by "Jurassic Park" in 1994, and naturally becomes the fastest movie in film history to have a box office of $100 million!

At that time, "Jurassic Park" was released on Wednesday, with a box office of 32 million US dollars in the mid-week, a box office of 47 million US dollars in three days on weekends, and finally accumulating 79 million US dollars in the first week, creating an incredible record. Many people think that this record will take years to be broken, but they did not expect that the speed of this day would be far beyond people's imagination.

How powerful this result is, it can be seen from the box office data of a single-stage restaurant.

At present, the North American film market will call it more than 700 theaters in the United States, and one thousand theaters can become a large-scale release. The box office record of single-cam released by large-scale releases is maintained by "Jurassic Park". Two thousand four hundred theaters released a single-cam box office of $19,600, and harvested $47 million in three days on weekends!

Now, "Independence Day" has undoubtedly broken this record. The box office revenue of a single museum of $25,000 was increased by 3,200 theaters, and the box office of $80 million was in the three days of the weekend. It not only broke the record of "Jurassic Park", but also increased this record by nearly 30%. If we consider that "Independence Day" was still breaking the film history record, it would be even more incredible, and the power of the entire weekend was fully displayed.

Every data on "Independence Day" is undoubtedly writing records, and with absolute strength, all media can only witness all this in a daze.

116 million US dollars, "Independence Day" took only four days to achieve a height that countless other movies could not reach for months, which has lost any language. 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 in pay to easily realize its value. Although 20th Century Fox almost spent a sky-high price on publicity costs, people believe that it is only a matter of time to achieve profitability on "Independence Day". Maybe the profit model will be launched next week. Now people are more concerned about: how much profit can this movie bring to 20th Century Fox?

The debate about the high investment and high returns film production model will inevitably continue, including "Independence Day" itself. The outstanding box office in the first week is just the first step. As a commercial film, no one can predict what kind of box office miracle can be created during the long four-month release period.

After the glorious premiere of "Jurassic Park", people believed that it had the ability to become the second work after "Alien E.t" with a box office of 400 million, and the first work with a box office of 400 million in the first round of broadcasting. However, the result was still disappointing. "Jurassic Park"'s final North American box office was at 357 million, which was an extremely far away from the 400 million natural barrier.

The same is true for Independence Day now.

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

But even so, the performance of "Independence Day" easily exceeded 100 million on the premiere weekend of "Independence Day" still gave Hollywood producers great confidence. In particular, the outstanding performance of Industrial Light and Magic has made computer special effects clear, which has never been the technology itself, but people who use technology. Computer special effects can build up the failure of the "Future Water World", but can also set off the victory of "Independence Day".

Not to mention Hugo's unique appeal, as the most popular male actor in North America today, Hugo's attraction to the audience has reached a height that others cannot reach. Whether it is Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, who are constantly exaggerating in the media, or Tom Hanks and Harrison Ford, who are very popular with the audience, they cannot be compared with Hugo.

The huge success of the box office at the premiere weekend of "Independence Day" at least proves one thing: the potential of the North American film market has not been explored. Once upon a time, people thought that the box office exceeded 100 million in the first week was almost impossible to complete, but now "Independence Day" has created history.

Therefore, it can be imagined that with the release of "Independence Day", this Hollywood industry battle will continue to continue in a noisy way.

However, before further debate comes, the success of the "Independence Day" premiere weekend is unnecessary. Not to mention surpassing the first week of the $116 million box office, even if you want to compete, it is almost impossible to complete.

Therefore, in the first week of July, the North American movie weekend box office rankings were almost unsurprising. To be precise, as early as Thursday's Independence Day, the suspense was already strangled in the cradle. In the end, "Independence Day" easily won the box office championship this week. What's even more incredible is that the overall box office in North America's three weekends this week was US$15 million, and one of the works "Independence Day" contributed 80 million US dollars, which was more than 50% of the contribution. Even the word "sweep" is not enough to describe the strength of "Independence Day".
