In the first week of January 2015, "Imitation Game" and "Burst Drummer" two award season topical works, took the lead in the box office market for a head-on confrontation; "Selma Parade", "Sex/Evil", "Big Eyes" Waiting for the works to enter the stage of full release; also, "American Sniper" caught up with the deadline for registration at the last moment...

All of this is heralding that the war of the awards season has started in full!

Obviously, the excellent performance of "Burst Drummer" is coming to the fore. Regardless of whether you like Lanli or the work, the heated topic boom is creating an unstoppable momentum. Every person in the industry in Hollywood has heard of it more or less. The relevant news about this movie is at least the name.

The icing on the cake is that the theme of "Burst Drummer" is artistic creation. Together with "Birdman", a work that tells the inner story of the film and theater industry, they have become the "artist" of this year. For Hollywood people, such works can always awaken more resonance and reflect the story on themselves.

At the critical moment of voting that is difficult to distinguish, such details can often play an unexpected and amazing role. Of course, the most important thing is the excellent work and the accuracy of public relations.

The subsequent box office curve also demonstrated the strength of the "burst drummer", step by step to promote this work to the public's view, it has become a dark horse in the awards season!

In the second week of January, "Hurricane Rescue 3" struck strongly. With a weekend box office of 39 million U.S. dollars, it reached the top of the championship without any suspense, ending the incredible counterattack momentum of "Burst Drummer" and making the North American box office market. Return to normal track. Commercial films dominate the box office market, and art films compete for the awards season.

Despite this, the box office drop of "Burst Drummer" in the sixth week of the weekend still ushered in a warm applause: Facing the fierce impact of strong opponents, the drop was controlled at an ultra-low level of 27%, which is already extremely rare; Considering the strong box office performance during the weekend of the previous week, this drop is even more shocking. You can feel the viral spread of this work in every aspect, and a new trend is forming.

Different from the empathy of "Drunk Country Folk Songs", the resonance caused by "Burst Drummer" is more of a curious psychology. Every teenager seems to be ready to challenge the limits of himself and express it by watching and commenting on this work. His own position, as well as his own insight and depth, seem to have become a show-off medium for the younger generation, and eventually evolved into another link of entertainment to death.

This makes it impossible to tell whether the popularity of "Burst Drummer" is more ironic, or whether the way of achieving artistic perfection in the story of "Blast Drummer" has become the focus of discussion on social networks after dinner is more ironic?

However, the weekend box office figure of 22 million is uncontroversial. This is the real influence of the social network frenzy. The cumulative box office of the "burst drummer" has been pushed to 78 million US dollars in one fell swoop. Such a high level is the Sony Classics making Before the release plan, I couldn't even think of the results.

After that, the North American film market once again broke out a dark horse, and the "American Sniper" completely changed the market structure.

This work produced and distributed by Warner Bros. directed by "Old Cowboy" Clint Eastwood, and the protagonist is Bradley Cooper, who has been hot in the past two years, tells the story of the sniping of the US Navy SEALs Hand Chris-Kyle (chris-kyle) biography, cost 60 million US dollars to create.

However, the film was not favored in the internal test screening stage; later controversial rumors broke out frequently in the screening stage, which also covered the film's journey.

On the one hand, the film focuses on the sniper. He snipes one hundred and sixty-six people on the battlefield. This has broken away from the universal "war damage". All the weight falls on the individual. Provoked protests from anti-war pacifists; on the other hand, the film has also suffered countless accusations among Arab groups. The partial and distorted depiction of battlefield facts will inevitably lead to countless controversies.

This scene is somewhat similar. Just like last year's "Gravity", Warner Bros.'s positioning of the "American Sniper" was not clear, and it was impossible to determine for a while whether to take the commercial film route or return to the awards season route. It is also reflected in their screening plan.

The "American Sniper" opened with four theaters. After obtaining an outstanding single-library box office data of 158,000 US dollars, Warner Bros. still failed to determine its own advancement plan. Faced with only 72 points. According to the media review, they don't know whether the award season is a reliable choice. But in the face of many anti-war voices, this work does not seem to have much room for improvement.

After the screening, many industry media believed that Clint Eastwood's work might be completely buried, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

No one is optimistic about the prospects of this work.

The same is true for Warner Bros. Amidst the confusion, "American Sniper" continued to screen four theaters for three weeks. During the screening period, the outstanding performance of the single-library box office gave Warner Bros. more confidence in the box office data of the single-library next week. Rather than falling, it rose to a position of 169,000 U.S. dollars; the box office data of the single library in the third week still remained at the height of 144,000 U.S. dollars, even in the face of the frenzy of "burst drummers" sweeping the army," The "American sniper" does not seem to be completely overwhelmed.

Then, Warner Bros., like Sony Classic, chose to expand and directly screen it in 3,555 theaters. This gamble... was once again successful.

"American Sniper" broke the historical record of "Drunk Country Folk Songs" with a weekend box office of 89 million US dollars. The destructive posture made the entire North America a cry of exclamation, which had completely disappeared from the scope of the awards season. This work of, reached the first group in one go, completely breaking the deadlock, which also caught other issuing companies by surprise, and the awards season became more and more exciting.

After that, the "American Sniper" became more and more brave in the war, and after winning three consecutive championships, the box office growth momentum has not slowed down, and it has risen all the way. Last year, the "Drunk Country Folk Ballad" reached an incredible 200 million in North America. This is considered an unrepeatable miracle, or even a myth; but I did not expect that just one year later, the "American Sniper" not only copied the miracle, but also It broke the miracle, and in the end, the cumulative box office in North America passed the 300 million threshold, which was as high as 350 million U.S. dollars, making everyone in the industry dumbfounded and unable to make a sound.

In fact, at this time, through the "American Sniper", the core idea of ​​the work that is obviously tilted to the right, it can get a glimpse of the pattern of the 2016 presidential election in advance. The candidate who no one expected is in the final result. China overturned all expert predictions and succeeded in winning.

Some things are inevitable after all.

The "American Sniper"’s Jedi counterattack took away all sights and once again achieved the glory of Clint Eastwood. At the same time, it also made people feel the signs that Bradley Cooper has become the darling of the United States. For Li, Bradley is obviously more in line with the preferences of the college judges

He appeared on the small screen for the first time in 1998, with the image of a handsome vase. After a long period of obscurity, he continued to polish his acting skills in stage plays and TV series, but he always appeared as a supporting role until 2009. , A "Hangover" successfully emerged and entered the public eye as the biggest dark horse of the year, completely reversing the trough of the career.

Then he looked for a breakthrough in commercial films, turned to the embrace of independent films, and showed his personal charm with a light but in-depth comedy performance, and wrote a classic inspirational script of the "American Dream". This is the responsibility of the college judges. My favorite art, shouldn’t it be closely related to suffering?

Everyone is paying attention to Lan Li’s feat of winning the Oscar nomination for four consecutive years, but few people have noticed that Bradley has also been nominated for the final Oscar competition for two consecutive years, "the line of happiness behind the dark clouds" and "the American scam." Let him always occupy the favor of the judges; of course, the age of thirty-nine is more in line with the preference of the college.

It is precisely because of the absolute strength of Lanli~www.novelhall.com~ that people ignore Bradley’s beloved. But in fact, it is estimated that the entire Hollywood industry will choose Lanli if it is selected based on absolute strength. Not Bradley; however, Hollywood has never been a contest of strength, has it?

Unknowingly, Bradley has also become a hot player in the battle for the actor, and his momentum has been rising with the sweep of the "American Sniper". After all, Clint Eastwood is in the academy. The prestige and reputation among the judges is definitely one of the best, to some extent, comparable to Steven Spielberg.

Bradley is threatening Renly's leading position, but it is only a threat. Because the performance of "Burst Drummer" is not inferior.

Entering the stage of full release, "Burst Drummer" showed the support of the general public with an ultra-low drop, reminding people of the 96% popcorn index, and the subsequent box office curve also verified the authority of the index. Sex.

After surrendering a box office drop of less than 25% for ten consecutive weeks, "Burst Drummer" sprinted all the way towards the Oscars, and after the awards ceremony ended, it still maintained a strong attraction, and it was released to the sixth stage. In the first week of the month, the entire release cycle is as high as 25 weeks, and the box office endurance is consistent with the film’s reputation. It is undoubtedly one of the most popular and favorite works in this year's awards season.

In the end, the North American box office of "Burst Drummer" broke through the 100 million threshold and was fixed at $180 million!

Although there is no "American sniper" madness, it still breaks through its own limits. With both subject matter and genre restricted, the total box office in North America is almost Catching up with the "Drunk Country Folk Song" is undoubtedly the best affirmation of this work.
