With the end of the day''s screening, the number of people who have watched "planet of terror" has increased, and the trend of polarization in the audience''s reputation has become more and more obvious. In a field audience survey report that Miramax received in the early morning, there are always some bad comments in the good reviews, and the number of bad comments is obviously more than that of the newly released "electric saw".
This film is absolutely a masterpiece in the eyes of B-movie lovers.
"Cool to silly, blood to laugh, beautiful to dirty, miserable to sad. It''s beautiful. Murphy''s the one who makes the most noise
"That''s great. It''s the best movie I''ve seen this year!"
"Unparalleled cut film, wonderful, it''s cool to watch!"
Without exception, these people rated the live audience of the film a +.
But for non-B movie lovers, especially those who are attracted into the movie hall by the unique beauty, most of them don''t have a good impression of "horror planet".
"Playing zombie shooting for more than an hour is more interesting than this movie."
"The film was rough enough and disgusting."
In contrast, the evaluation of B - and C of these people is also their real feelings.
However, different from the polarization of the audience''s word-of-mouth, "planet of terror" appeared on many media comment pages the next day, with far less negative comments than Murphy imagined. It seems that the North American media and professional film critics who have seen it are very willing to buy the film.
Among the 37 North American film reviews collected by rotten tomatoes, 30 were well received, and the freshness of rotten tomatoes was as high as 84%.
On the more authoritative media score, Metacritic included 35 media, with an average score of 77.
Obviously, the media and critics all think that "planet of terror" is a good work.
However, the media and film critics can only influence the market to a certain extent, and can not determine the future of a film. It is the market that really determines the future fate of "terrorist planet".
On Friday, "planet of terror" was shown in 2000 North American Theaters, and finally closed for $6.85 million!
It''s a relief for Murphy and bill rosis.
In particular, the latter, "terrorist planet" is the first project he is responsible for. If the box office in North America does not meet expectations, it will certainly have a lot of negative effects on the future.
"Miramax''s first week box office is expected to be between $12 million and $14 million."
In CAA''s independent office, Bill rosis looks at Mike across the street. "The film has now won half of the lowest expected box office. The box office pressure in the next two days will be much less. As long as there is no cliff diving today, it will certainly exceed the expectation!"
"Yes Mike''s mood looks good, "I finally have a client who starred in a film with more than ten million dollars at the box office in North America."
On the one hand, he hopes to see the film meet the expectations, so that his Jessica chastan''s position in the industry will rise greatly, and at the same time, his agent will also rise.
On the other hand, I don''t want to see the film succeed. If the film is successful, Murphy Stanton will surely climb to a higher position as a director, and bill Rossi''s weight in the CAA will naturally become more and more important.
Now that Bill rosis has left him behind for a long time, Murphy standu''s continued success will make the distance between them more and more distant, and in the end they may never catch up with each other
Bill rosis looked at the time, stood up and said, "come on, let''s go to the event in Santa Monica."
Santa Monica Commercial Plaza is one of the famous commercial centers in Los Angeles. Many media or film promotional activities will be put here. When the crew of horror planet appeared on the Plaza in front of the commercial center, it attracted a lot of attention.
Especially Robert Downey Jr. is the center of the media.
In Miramax''s publicity and marketing planning, Robert Downey Jr. is an extremely important publicity point. From the past few days, some media and websites began to see a lot of news such as "Robert Downey Jr.''s prodigal son comes back", "the brilliant Downey is back", "the latest masterpiece of Robert Downey Jr. who quit drug addiction" and so on.
The star standing in front of the curtain will always be the focus of media attention. Although Robert Downey Jr. has been out of breath before, with the support of Miramax''s plan and all kinds of relations secretly launched by Robert Downey Sr., and the screening of "planet of terror" at Cannes Film Festival before, it has created a certain momentum. It seems that the rising star of tomorrow at that time really is Come back.
"Yes, I''m in the film because of Murphy."
In the interview area demarcated above the square, Robert Downey, Jr. stands in the middle of reporters and talks. Compared with Murphy, who is also interviewed on the left, he is more suitable for this occasion. "On the day I got out of prison, Murphy personally took me back from prison to Los Angeles, giving me this opportunity.""Do you really appreciate director Stanton?" A reporter put out the microphone.
Instead of answering, little Robert Downey made a gesture to the reporter on the left to get out of the way. Then he went to Murphy''s side and immediately took his shoulder.
"Hey, brother!"
On hearing this, Murphy stopped, turned to look at little Robert Downey, and gave him a smile.
A large number of reporters surrounded the two people, pressed the shutter of the camera in their hands, and photographed Murphy and Robert Downey Jr., who looked very close.
At this time, another reporter asked aloud, "I heard that you used to serve in the same prison?"
Murphy didn''t open his mouth. Robert Downey Jr. said something better.
"We lived in the same cell as well as in the same prison." Robert Downey, Jr. released the hand that held Murphy''s shoulder, pointed to him and said, "do you know how much Murphy has helped me? I can''t get rid of drugs without him! I won''t stand up again without him! Without him, I would not be here now! "
He was very emotional and excited. "He was the dawn when I fell into the dark! He''s the angel who saved me from hell! He is my God... "
Reporters around looked at little Robert Downey. Little Robert Downey took a step back and said, "he''s still my brother!"
Then he stretched out his arm and hugged Murphy. Although Murphy was not an actor, he knew what to do at this time. He also hugged little Robert Downey.
The sound of the shutter is continuous, and the light of the flashing lights seems to cover the sunshine of Los Angeles in June. This picture of brotherhood kills countless media reporters.
This is another propaganda point set by Miramax - brotherhood!
Murphy released little Robert Downey and waved to the other side. "Jim, Seth, Jonah, come here!"
James Franco, Seth Logan and Jonah hill all came to this side. Robert Downey pointed to them and said, "since I got out of prison, they have given me countless help and made me feel family and friendship. They are also my brothers!"
"Stand in a row." Murphy whispered to James Franco.
Five people each holding the people around, standing in front of the camera of the media reporter, like brothers.
They almost attracted the attention of all the reporters on the scene. As the heroine, Jessica chastan, in this touching picture of brotherhood, lacks attention.
Standing in the corner of the interview area, Jessica chastan turns to see her agent Mike, who is really looking at the five people with a frown.
Jessica chastan sighed, but didn''t say anything. Anyway, through this movie, her way to Hollywood has been opened.
The difference is that Murphy Stanton''s Hollywood Road is leading to the top, and there is chaos ahead of her.
Although this kind of publicity can''t make the movie box office as big as Spiderman, which was painted last weekend, it can still attract some people''s attention. Moreover, old Robert Downey is also launching his own network to help his son. In the circle of Hollywood, there are few people who give charcoal in the snow, but there are many people who add icing on the cake.
Little Robert Downey is obviously not the little Robert Downey he used to be. There is also a film that has a good response at Cannes Film Festival. Some people are willing to give old Robert Downey face by pushing it on without any effort.
Miramax''s North American promotion and marketing expenses for "planet of terror" are only $4 million, but it has made a lot of momentum in the first week of its release, and even vaguely keeps up with 007: choose a day to die, which is also opened in North America this weekend.
Of course, both Murphy and Miramax are very rational, knowing that this kind of B-class film with limited audience can''t be compared with James Bond who has built a gold lettered brand for decades.
Friday''s box office also proved this point. The box office champion of that day was spider man, which was released in the second week, with nearly 20 million US dollars; the second was 007: die another day, with a single day harvest of more than 16 million US dollars; the $6.85 million of terror planet ranked third after the two films.
Two days after the weekend, the ranking also maintained this position. The difference is that spider man''s word-of-mouth is strong, and the box office continues to rise in a single day; the polarization of the audience''s word-of-mouth of terror planet is becoming more and more obvious, and the box office in a single day is declining.
However, this is also the normal rule of B-class films, and the decline is not very large, especially there is no cliff diving. In one day on Saturday, the box office only decreased by less than $1 million to close at $5.92 million.
On Sunday, the box office of all the films will shrink, and the attendance rate of horror planet will continue to decline, but the decline is still healthy.
When Sunday passed and the new week came, the latest North American box office statistics came out, and "horror planet" also got the box office number that Miramax expected. (to be continued). ）For mobile phone users, please browse and read for better reading experience.
