Chapter 742 "Juneo" (seeking subscription, tickets)

The March schedule was opened by Bowei's "Wild Boar Flying Fleet".

Although this group of wild and funny Harley team has been raging with bad reviews after its release, it easily climbed into the championship position and won 38 million US dollars in the first weekend.The box office results far exceeded the expectations of the publisher Fang Bowei Pictures.

In addition, the media giant Viacom also smiled in this March, because Paramount has also become one of the main players in the North American film market. David Fincher's "Twelve Murders" successfully became runner-up, winning 1310. With a box office of 10,000 U.S. dollars, another sub-label "Black Snake Moan" released by Paramount Advantage ranked eighth with 4.02 million.

What’s even more surprising is that "Flying Boars" condensed four veterans, Tim Allen, John Travolta, Martin Lawrence, and William H-Messi, all with an average age of about 50. The actor unexpectedly won the hearts of female audiences.

According to data provided by Nielsen, the proportion of female audiences exceeds 54%.

In addition, Allen starred in many Disney movies, and the lead actor Qi Qi attended Oprah Winfrey's talk show. The funny interviews in that period also played a good role in promoting the film.

In the first week of the March schedule, the top ten films on the charts received a total of US$100.8 million in box office sales, an increase of 30% compared with the market dominated by "Marty's Family Reunion" in the same period last year.

By the following week, with the box office market still hot, the promotion of Juno had reached the final stage. The creators participated in various talk shows, radio and magazine interviews, etc., and also promoted on the Blue Butterfly Pictures network. Under the leadership of department manager Sean, he continued to build momentum.

On the evening of Thursday, March 8, the long-awaited film finally arrived. Taking advantage of the holiday, students mainly crowded into the theater to watch the trailer for "Juneo" which resembled a campus youth film.

Although in the eyes of theater operators, the movies produced by Firefly have always been good, but according to the subject matter, market capacity, and the share of other film needs, the opening screen of "Juneo" is only 2,475 yuan; and the daily box office ranking first There are 3,220 "Flying Boars".

The different themes will naturally affect the choices of the market audience. The older people will tend to vulgar comedies like "Wild Boar Flying Convoy", and it is really weird. If you smile, you will be in a good mood; the younger ones mostly entered the The screening room of Juno.

San Francisco, Emperor Entertainment Theater.

This chain theater is dominated by multiple theaters. At this time, the number 3 theater is lined with "Juneo", and the number of people present accounts for 90% of the seats.

Generally speaking, after the movie starts, the audience will not randomly make noisy sounds to affect the viewing experience, but now it is not quiet at all.

Discussions, quarrels, and excitement.

The exquisite pictures taken on the screen aroused the emotions of many people.

No one thought that this was a movie about underage pregnancy. When Juno and her little boyfriend secretly tasted the forbidden fruit, some middle-aged parents of parents worried that their children would be adversely affected.

After all, no matter how open the United States is, there are still things to avoid.

As a result, some quarrels are caused by parents who want to leave but children are unwilling, with some flattering voices in between.

The beginning of the film is normal and even beautiful.

The idyllic town, lively and cheerful country music, the harmonica combined with the exquisite lens caught the eye.

When everyone thought it was a normal school comedy, the style suddenly changed.

The careless Juno also began to become a little depressed. She had thought about abortion, but she gave up her mind.

Up to this point, those parents who wanted to leave immediately felt that this would be a different and sensitive movie.

Then, following the camera into the inner world of Juno, an underage girl.

Holding a pipe in her mouth, she pretended to be Sherlock Holmes sitting on the sofa at her little boyfriend's house, and complained softly, "I think I am a planet."

Juno touched his growing belly and complained to himself.

There was a chuckle in the auditorium at the right time.

However, looking at the excitement of the surrounding teenagers, some middle-aged people couldn't help but frown.

The better this film is, the more it will give the audience a bad guide and demonstration.

Just like "High School Musical", "Become Famous" and other movies, the former makes many young people want to learn street dancing, and the latter makes children yearn for the green grass, with fancy and ox-tails, it’s best to come when you shoot. A long-range shot.

Most movies have a subtle guiding role.

This is also the reason why movies need to be graded. Some movies are really not suitable for the immature people to watch.

However, under the gentle shell of "Juneo", it is still alert and preaching, rather than advocating underage pregnancy.

When the movie was halfway through, the hearts of most middle-aged people were slightly restored.

The plot is getting more and more serious.

Juno's mentality change has gradually matured, knowing what love is, what is responsibility, and it also means the necessary dedication when taking responsibility.

Finally, the birth of a baby is even more rare and easy.

The film is over. Unlike the praise of young viewers, some middle-aged people said to their sons and daughters very seriously: "Did you see it? High school pregnancy is a particularly bad thing. Don't try it. You see Did those people give Juno’s advice? You shouldn’t do anything other than students when you are a student."

I originally thought that it might take more time to use this topic to promote sex-education. After all, I just watched the movie, and some of the plot is quite deep, and the director does not advocate this kind of behavior, but more is against abortion. .

But I didn't expect that the children did have some understanding, and they said that they could not go out to play with any pregnant women.

You may have to wait for a deeper contact to better understand what responsibility is.

What I can't afford is the harm to many people.

But among the happy, admired, or ignorant audience, Michelle, who followed the flow of people to exit, concealed his sadness.

She felt that she should have seen this movie long ago, or she would never watch it.

She is 15 years old this year, and like Juno in the movie, she was curious or emotional and tasted the forbidden fruit.

But she was not as brave as Juno, and her boyfriend was even more flustered and begged her to get rid of it.

She thought she could forget, but sometimes, the more she avoided, the more torture.

The seeds of regret have long been planted, and "Juneo" is just an opportunity to open the line of defense.

The girl cried, thinking about the baby Juno gave birth.

If she did not go, but gave birth bravely, would everything be different?

She doesn't know, but she has always thought about it.

It was originally a flowery age, didn't it?

She can't go back.

Michelle was walking on the street, unconsciously, before she came to her boyfriend's house.

Oh no, they have broken up.

After that time, all the good things are over.

She didn't know why she came here.

After standing for a long time, he suddenly laughed at himself.

But she couldn't laugh.Tears mixed with nasal mucus running on the face, leaving trails.

Emotions slowly subsided.

Sometimes it's good to vent.

She just wanted to leave when the familiar person came out.

"Why are you here?"

The boy may have spotted Michelle early, and only came out to see her after a certain ideological struggle.

I wanted to be tough, because it was an accident that no one wanted, but seeing the tears on the girl's face and the crying face, my tone finally softened.

"It's nothing."

Michelle lowered her head, her voice choked.

"Is there something? What happened, why are you...Don't cry." The boy was a little flustered.

As I asked, the tear glands that the girl held back got out of control again.

She wanted to ask what would happen if the two of them could bear the responsibility together.

She would like to know if the gentle ending like "Juneo" is also a reward for her persistence.

But she is not Juno.

Michelle was just thinking that she didn't have the courage of Juno and the free and easy life that Juno laughed at.

If she persists, will she fulfill her responsibility?

This is a question with an answer, so she wants to cry.

The boy snorted softly and stepped aside silently, then he hugged the girl again.

He regrets it too, but there is a future...
