Superstar

On January 23, at the 57th Golden Globe Awards, the stars gathered on the red carpet, but I still didn’t see Hugo and Charlize Theron at the same time. This was the first consecutive Hugo. Having missed the Golden Globes eight times, people have long been accustomed to it, and even no longer have any hope.

The Golden Globes seemed to have completely given up their efforts. Among the results of the awards, the crews of the "Beautiful Mind" and the "Sixth Sense of Supernatural" were completely wiped out. Win. In the battle for the best actor in the drama category, he lost to the "Hurricane" Denzel Washington, and in the best screenwriter showdown, he lost to the talented Charlie Kaufman-he relied on the "puppet" The debut of "Life" has aspired in one fell swoop.

Even in the Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress categories, "Beautiful Mind" also lost. Leonardo lost to "Magnolia"'s Tom Cruise, and Charlize lost to "Soul Girl" "The Angelina Jolie.

The best film in the drama category was won by "Genius Ripley", and the best director fell into the pocket of the director Michael Mann of "Inside the Shock". The winner of the Best Film Score Award is "The Pianist of the Sea (The. Legend. Of. 1900.

"Beautiful Mind" was a big hit, but seven nominations were not accepted, making it the biggest upset of this year’s Golden Globe Awards; even more incredible is that all awards were won by different works, "Genius Ripley", The hot works of the awards season, such as "Breaking Inside Story" and "Puppet Life", have been rewarded. Even the box office "Man on the Moon", who had a fiasco, also picked up the best actor profile picture for Kim Carey in a musical comedy.

Such a Golden Globe Awards is indeed shocking, and the Oscars to be held two months later have suddenly become uncertain. However, this result coincides with Hollywood's recent remarks. The "Hollywood cancer" is becoming more and more vigorous. It seems that people all hate Hugo overnight for being too jealous of Hugo's achievements, and then unite. Together, join forces to resist Hugo's dominance-at least in the award to prevent Hugo from continuing to sweep the pace.

But even so, the box office trend of "Beautiful Mind" has not been affected in any way. Even Princeton University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University have highly praised this film. Many professors have watched this film, although They sneered at the portrayal of John Nash in the movie, but John's dedication to mathematics was widely recognized. Especially Princeton University, their image in the film is very positive, won a good reputation from the school, this is also the result that Hugo did not expect when writing the script.

The better the box office of "Beautiful Mind", the higher the hatred value of "Hollywood Cancer"; but the higher the discussion of "Beautiful Mind", the more popular the movie box office. This seems to be an endless loop that cannot be solved at all.

After Denzel defeated Hugo to win the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Drama Series, many viewers expressed grief, and some even felt angrily that Hugo had been treated badly. As the "Empire" magazine said, Hugo's performance in the "Beautiful Mind" can be called the pinnacle of work. His performance almost shines on the entire big screen, but in the end he failed to win an award. This is really ridiculous. .

This has triggered a new round of movie-watching frenzy, and the audience seems determined to use practical actions to support Hugo.

In the cold winter gear, it is really difficult for "Beautiful Mind" to find a rival-this is also unexpected. In the weekend box office is generally less than 6 million, the "Beautiful Mind" weekend is more than 10 million U.S. dollars. The box office is completely invincible. It is like a group of featherweight players trying to challenge the heavyweight champion. It is not on the same level at all. Therefore, "Beautiful Mind" has gone out of a god-level box office curve. Unexpected championships to three consecutive championships to five consecutive championships, the upward momentum made everyone stunned.

It was not until the first week of February that "Scream 3 (. 3 appeared, which ended the consecutive championship momentum of "Beautiful Mind".

As one of the most classic and successful series of North American horror movies, the "Screaming Scream" series ushered in its third this year. The investment of up to 40 million US dollars is unimaginable for horror movies. However, in the summer archives this year, the excellent performances of horror movies such as "Sixth Sense of Supernatural", "Blair the Witch", and "Ghost Invasion" have given "Scream 3" a lot of confidence, especially the first two in the series. The department has accumulated a large number of fans, and the movie box office is bound to make a difference.

Therefore, "Scream 3" was screened in a total of 3,500 theaters, setting a new record for large-scale releases in the winter season. In this deserted schedule, it can almost be called a giant and a strong premiere. Provoked countless discussions. The market that has just experienced the hustle and bustle of the Golden Globes finally showed a touch of warmth in the cold winter, responding to the prestige of this classic horror series with a box office of 34 million US dollars.

Faced with such an outstanding performance of "Scream 3", even the one-week box office of "Beautiful Mind" could not compete. Although it naturally handed over the championship, but even so, the decline in the movie was still It is controlled within 25%, and it has not been affected too much by competitors to seize the market.

After being terminated for five consecutive championships, "Beautiful Mind" still performed well at the weekend box office. Especially after the Oscar nomination list was announced, the atmosphere of the entire awards season was slowly pushed to its peak. It even delivered a 20% increase for two consecutive weeks, and its ability to boost the box office was not inferior even if it was placed in the summer file. In addition to the first week of screenings, "Beautiful Mind" will continue for nine consecutive weeks. The box office at the weekend exceeded 10 million. This level is comparable to a commercial blockbuster with outstanding performance, and "Beautiful Mind" is just a biographical film with an investment of 60 million.

In the fourth week of February, "Beautiful Mind", with a box office increase of 31%, handed over 14 million US dollars in the weekend box office, and returned to the runner-up position in the North American weekend box office rankings for the second consecutive week, just behind. With the new release of "The... Yards", the film’s cumulative box office has officially crossed the 200 million threshold and temporarily settled at US$205 million.

This also officially killed all suspense. The "Beautiful Mind" has become a record for Hugo's five consecutive works to break 200 million at the box office since "Independence Day"!

In 1994, "Pulp Fiction" was released with a box office of 172 million U.S. dollars, making Hugo the first actor in film history to have five consecutive works with a box office of over 100 million. It is a pity that the subsequent release of "Japanese" "Before the release" has not been able to continue this record. Soon after, Tom Cruise also tied this record by relying on "Mr. Sweetheart"'s big victory, and truly achieved the brilliant box office superstar.

What's even more rare is that Hugo and Tom both starred in five consecutive films with a box office of over 100 million yuan, proving their strong box office appeal.

At the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries, Hugo himself rewrote this record. Five consecutive works broke through 200 million U.S. dollars at box office, including three works with a box office of 300 million U.S. dollars. Now, 100 million US dollars is still the average standard for measuring the box office of works, and 200 million US dollars is undoubtedly a big box office victory. And Hugo actually achieved such a high box office for five consecutive works, and achieved this feat in a stable and balanced manner.

It is not difficult to obtain five works with a box office of over 100 million or over 200 million. Especially after entering the 21st century, the entire North American film market ushered in a box office explosion, including the Marvel film adaptation series, including "Harry -Porter" or "Twilight" adaptation series, can enable a group of actors to achieve this feat. But the most rare thing is that this is five consecutive works, and it is still five within four years. At the same time, it is still four original films plus one adapted film. The difficulty is so great that even the use of "myth" can not express Inner shock.

This not only created history, but also an unsurpassable record for a long time to come. Will Smith, Robert Downey Jr., Jennifer Lawrence and many young idols who turned out to be born because of Marvel movies , Have not been able to achieve this feat. This is a miracle in the history of North American cinema, almost considered a miracle that can never be replicated.

And the most important thing is that Hugo's pace has not stopped, maybe there will be sixth and seventh...The only one who can break the record is always himself, this kind of absolute dominance from high places~www.wuxiahere. com~ No one except Hugo can feel it, and it is extremely difficult to even get close.

The box office of "Beautiful Mind" exceeded 200 million, which not only wrote a piece of history, but also set an eternal and insurmountable benchmark, making the name of "superstar" unreachable and brilliant. Under the light of the superstar Hugo Lancaster, no one can be worthy of the name "superstar". Throughout the long history, he can also be regarded as a unique superstar-not only Because of his box office appeal, not only because of his achievements in major awards, not only because of his glory to death, not only because of the strong album sales, but also because of his unparalleled influence on the entire society. This is definitely a long history. The only one in this!

Five consecutive films broke 200 million at the box office. This is an incredible record. But behind this record is Hugo’s strong dominance over the film market and its profound influence on society, which also makes Hugo a This is the only artist in film history who can truly match the title of "Superstar".

At this time, look back at the work "Beautiful Mind", maybe it is indeed the pinnacle of Hugo. It not only witnessed the most outstanding performance of Hugo's career, but also achieved the last glory before the end of the twentieth century. , Has become the milestone of Hugo's ascent to the top of the superstar; at this time, looking back at the 1992 Golden Raspberry Award, it is estimated that everyone will smile knowingly, life is sometimes so unpredictable.
