Hollywood Hunter

Chapter 84 Blessed by Disaster

The turning point of many things in the world often stems from some trivial things.

After a week of struggling to cope with it, although he succeeded in disturbing the direction of public opinion into a turbid water, Simon understood that the clarification to be made on NBC's "Tonight Show" could not make him completely out of doubt, and then it will take time to come Dilute this matter.

However, the video that suddenly appeared on ABC reversed the whole thing very thoroughly.

The previous questions basically focused on whether Simon has professional capabilities in photography, editing, and soundtrack.But after watching the video, as long as someone with a little independent thinking ability, no longer doubt Simon's personal skills in music.

Obviously, Simon, a guitarist who has almost entered the room, can't possibly complete the soundtrack of a movie.

Since Simon can complete the soundtrack, he can naturally complete the work that photography and editing should feel easier for ordinary people.So, is there any doubt about the final production of "Rola Run"?

Of course, the questioning will naturally not stop so easily.

Soon the media pointed out that in the video played by ABC, Janet Johnston and Catherine Bigelow were obviously present, and Simon Westero used a collector's edition that should be worth about $1,000. Gibson acoustic guitar.

These details are sufficient to prove that the video may have only been shot recently, rather than the video of Simon Westero's show in Venice Beach before his fortune.

The obvious truth.

A penniless poor boy, where would an expensive brand guitar go to show off!

Inferred from this, Simon Westeros' "Flying Bees" should only be learned in a hurry recently, just to cope with the current situation.Of course, this boy may have some talent on the guitar, but still can't prove anything.

However, the question in this respect was face-to-face.

The local media in Los Angeles conducted a survey directly on Venice Beach. The original tourists were naturally untraceable, but many street vendors around were impressed by the little miracle Simon made last year.

Later, the old Spanish man who operated the hotel appeared in a talk show on the local television station in Los Angeles with his acoustic guitar, describing the whole story in detail, patting his chest firmly to protect Simon.

On the new Monday, in the anticipation of many people, Simon officially appeared on the "Tonight Show" program.

As the media trend has changed, Simon showed a series of handwritten scripts, sub-lens drafts and even Simon's work notes during the production of "Roller Run" on this ace talk show on NBC TV. Basic dust is also settled.

Originally, Simon thought that as long as he could successfully get rid of this storm of public opinion, it would be good.

But everyone did not expect that perhaps the ABC video cassette has once again stimulated a lot of popularity. Except for the rumored period of time, guitar sales in all North American musical instrument stores have increased significantly, and the box office of "Laura Run" appeared again in the following week. Unexpected changes.

Since "Laura Run" has been fully rolled out last week, according to the usual box office curve of most movies, the box office in the fifth week of the film should have a certain decline.Affected by the doubts, Orion even predicted that this week's decline in "Roller Run" is likely to reach more than 30%.

However, the reality is that from March 13 to March 15, three days on the weekend, compared with the same period last week, the box office of "Laura Run" not only did not fall, but instead rebounded by about 6%, and received another 19.65 million. US dollars.

This is not over yet.

In the final full week from March 13 to March 19, the overall box office decline of "Roller Run" further expanded,

So, within five weeks of release, the total box office for "Rola Run" reached $85.87 million.

Immediately.

What everyone expected was obviously what was expected.

Entering the sixth week, "Roller Run" relied on another box office of 16.35 million US dollars for another three days at the weekend. The cumulative box office officially exceeded the 100 million US dollar mark to reach 102.02 million US dollars.

Due to the limitations of the market size and distribution model, throughout the 1980s, at least before 1987, there were only a handful of movies that were able to achieve box office sales of over 100 million in six weeks.

According to Orion's original forecast, even in the best case, "Lola Run" will take a full week of the sixth week to reach 100 million, and the most likely is to enter the 100 million club in the seventh week.

But the fact is that "Lola Run" only took five and a half weeks to successfully achieve this goal.

Moreover, "Roller Run" achieved the box office breaking 100 million in advance, which is not the most important.Since its release, everyone knows that this movie is a breeze at the box office.

but.

Hollywood originally expected the total box office in North America for "Rola Run" to be between $150 million and $200 million.

But now, after a storm of public opinion, the popularity of "Roller Run", which has already begun to dissipate, once again condenses, and the box office decline has also slowed down significantly.

The box office curve that should have fallen in the fifth week suddenly changed the trend, and there was an abnormal fall. The result was an overall increase in the subsequent box office curve.

So, after some re-evaluation, many people were surprised to find out.Five and a half weeks after breaking through 100 million, the final box office potential of "Rola Run" has clearly exceeded the $200 million limit.

As for how much can be achieved in the end, too many people are unwilling to predict.

However, some people want to evade reality, and many good news media have directly compared the movies with the box office trend of "Laura Run" in the past few years. This movie is the 1985 North American box office champion "Back to" future".

The best-selling sci-fi film directed by Robert Zemigis also achieved a box office break of 100 million in the sixth week of release.It's just that "Back to the Future" was the full week of the sixth week, only to get a box office of $109.2 million, barely exceeding the $100 million threshold.

But only then, the final North American box office for "Back to the Future" has reached $210 million.

Then.

Look at "Rola Run", how many can there be?!

Reminiscent of the movie’s box office potential, some people in the offices deep in Hollywood who have just made small moves to contain the movie’s box office even have a strong regret.

I originally wanted to suppress the box office of "Rola Run", but I did not expect this film to cross a more miraculous threshold.
