Best Movie Star

Chapter 904: airborne champion

Different from the 3D version of the current large-scale commercial movies, whether "Fast and Furious 5" is released on the other side of the Pacific Ocean or the version released in North America, all maintain the 2D mode. To say that Matthew has a conscience, it is too much to overestimate him. It's not that he doesn't want to 3D, but that the effect is too bad after the experiment.

There are too many action and drag racing scenes in this film. Many action scenes are shot on the car. Although there is a Steadicam stabilizer, many shots cannot be used for the effect of action shots. Some action shots are inevitably shaken.

Shaking action shots are definitely not suitable for 3D projections. Many people will feel dizzy and even vomit if they can't watch it for a long time.

Before shooting, Matthew, David - Ellison and Justin - Lin discussed, decided to still use the "Fast and Furious 4" 2D format.

In Matthew's own words, they are the conscience of the industry.

No matter 3D or 2D, this is not the selling point of "Fast and Furious 5". The biggest selling point of the film is the team headed by Sean played by Ma Jiao.

After its North American premiere, The New York Times devoted an entire page to Fast and Furious 5 in its supplement, analysing that the film was bound to be a success.

In addition to the effect bonuses of Matthew and the sequel film, they believe the film opens a new path for commercial action films.

"In 'Fast and the Furious', the awe-inspiring movie, Matthew Horner, Paul Walker, Gal Gadot, Daniel Wu and Tyrese Gibson, and many other actors, each showed their perfect body. , perfect character, three-dimensional character design and unique skills, must be handsome, and must be strong, turning Rio de Janeiro, which is a combination of heaven and hell, upside down, and by the way, he also uses gags and other methods to madly poke the audience's laughter and G-spot."

"It is no compliment to say that today's setting of a protagonist like a **** is no longer comparable to the sturdiness of heroes getting together and teaming up, and the charm of teamwork."

"This kind of collective money grabbing behavior with the team concept as the core will soon spread throughout Hollywood, and Hollywood will inevitably have more impressive movie character teams in the future, and more and more commercial blockbusters are willing to make collective achievements. Crystallization of energy."

"Actually, it is not difficult to find that this kind of team fighting mode has been quietly developed in Hollywood for many years. For example, the grass-roots laymen are like a group of laid-off workers in "The Big Robbery", and the handsome and rich are like a group of mixed people in "Eleven Arhats". The professional criminals who use hormones and high technology are also the military group in "Special Forces" starring Matthew Horner, not to mention the "X-Men" where everyone has amazing special abilities, even Matthew - In the last "Inception" starring Horner, the teams organized also have their own charms and functions, and they play teamwork and dazzle group hormones..."

"For the first time, "Fast and Furious 5" clearly called out the concept of a team as a family, and pushed the advantages of team combat to a peak that similar Hollywood movies have never reached in the past."

"It's not hard to guess that as long as "Fast and Furious 5" succeeds as expected, similar super-strong lineup teams will become a popular way of screen shows. Show your strengths and shine brightly.”

"Generally speaking, the single-minded hero of the last century is outdated. Even the "Mission Impossible 4" released at the end of this year, Tom Cruise is equipped with a team of 2 men and 1 woman. This commercial selling point needs to be updated urgently. , In the era of expansion, it is less and less common for big movies to be played by one person. Hollywood will blow up the leading teams like popcorn, with superstars like Matthew Horner and Tom Cruise as the The leader, coupled with the villain who is beautiful, unlucky, characteristic plus literary and artistic, plus the group play that accurately touches the audience's G-spot, makes the teamwork fragrant and can become a very effective film element."

Matthew also saw the report, and the New York Times was really keen.

This report is almost the same as the concept he advocated in his publicity that "a handsome team is really handsome".

There is a clear role teamwork in the Hollywood business system, which appeared very early, but no one has systematically summarized it before. Originally, he thought that after the success of "The Avengers", no one would clearly realize what team movies can bring. Unique advantage, I didn't expect the logging concept of "Fast and Furious 5" to have such a big impact.

In the future, Hollywood will have more teams.

It is conceivable that the Racing Gang, the Avengers Gang, the Justice Gang, the X-Men Gang, the Rohan Gang, the Hunter Gang, the Daredevil Gang and so on.

These teams can do their best to fight on the big screen, show professionalism, and show off the team's hormones and sturdy lineup.

Of course, if the racing gang wants to continue to exist, box office success is a prerequisite.

Although the media said that this is the most crowded summer slot in history, it is a bit exaggerated, but the films with a lot of investment have indeed crowded the entire summer slot.

Just a week before the release of "Fast and Furious 5", "Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon" released by Paramount Pictures just landed in North American theaters.

However, this typical Michael Bay-style film encountered a certain degree of aesthetic fatigue in North America. Compared with the second film, it has fallen significantly. The North American box office only won 97.85 million US dollars in its first week, which is lower than the industry average. expected.

And the content of this film also shows that the important place for "Transformers 3" to make money has turned to a broader overseas market.

In the second week of the release of "Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon", it ushered in the release of "Fast and Furious 5" with the same investment and huge publicity.

Without any accident, "Fast and Furious 5" on the first day of its release on Friday, easily beat the $14.8 million of "Transformers 3" with $55.6 million, and was parachuted to the throne of the single-day box office champion.

And the film's media and audience reputation is not bad.

In terms of evaluation, IMDb's 16,725 viewers scored 8.6 points, temporarily the highest in the series.

Cinema collected ratings from 1,557 viewers at the theater, with an overall rating of "A" and an average of 79 points from 56 media outlets.

Most of the media affirmed the entertainment level of "Fast and Furious 5": "The most worthy Hollywood blockbuster to watch in the cinema so far this year - "The Boston Globe", "Its entertainment level is worthy of a five-star recommendation!- --- "The Hollywood Reporter", "Three-dimensional character creation, fantastic action scenes, tacit understanding of teamwork, and realistic and shocking scenes----"Los Angeles Times", "A movie that will give you all the sensory stimulation you can. ----The Associated Press", "Pretty cool, pretty cool! ----"Entertainment Weekly""...

However, at the same time, some media criticized the film: "This film should not be called Fast and Furious, but should be called Slow and Fake - "Entertainment Online", "Jump editing and extremely fast flashbacks, these The thing will shake so that you can't see the movie at all, and it's good to be able to hold back and not spit it out - "World News Weekly"."

In general, "Fast and Furious 5" is a typical word-of-mouth and box-office explosion.

On Saturday, with the addition of good audience reputation, "Fast and Furious 5" maintained a relatively stable trend, with a gain of 51.2 million US dollars that day.

According to many media reports, "Fast and Furious 5" set off a box office storm at the end of the summer season.

Three days after its first weekend, the film earned $151.23 million in North America, surpassing "Transformers 3"'s $47.1 million to become the new North American box office champion!

It cannot be ignored that this is the box office number achieved by "Fast and Furious 5" without the 3D high ticket price increase.

Meanwhile, Cinema predicts that Fast & Furious 5 will not drop below $350 million at the North American box office.

The film will be a strong contender for the 2011 North American Box Office Championship of the Year.

Compared with North America, which just opened, "Fast and Furious 5" landed in theaters in many overseas regions as early as last week, and spent a full week on the other side of the Pacific Ocean.

After winning the box office of 453.38 million soft sister coins in the first weekend, the film continued to be released in the new week and seven days, and 495.6 million soft sister coins were collected from the Pacific.

In just a dozen days, the cumulative box office of "Fast and Furious 5" on the other side of the Pacific Ocean has already approached the one billion soft sister currency mark, which is almost 150 million US dollars in US dollars.

The rapid construction of cinemas on the other side of the Pacific Ocean provides the most basic conditions for the expansion of the market. The huge population figures are showing the potential of the market step by step.

Proud of the outbreak on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, so far, the overseas box office of "Fast and Furious 5" has reached more than 398.5 million US dollars~lightnovelpub.net~ The global box office of this film easily exceeds 500 million US dollars!

The failed franchises bought in exchange from Universal have turned into real money reapers.

But Matthew and David Ellison will not be satisfied with the status quo, and continue to invest resources with Disney to expand the scale of the film's promotion and marketing so that more people can enter the theater.

With a lot of money invested, there are many places touting the voices of "Fast and Furious 5".

"The Fast and the Furious 5 is a great movie that will bring you the Fast and the Furious and will not let you down!"

"It is said that "Fast and Furious 5" uses the best shooting technology today, many scenes are real shooting, so that the drag racing inside is more realistic and exciting to the audience. The production cost is as high as 160 million US dollars, which is absolutely in Hollywood. It can be classified into the ranks of top productions, and the director is still Justin Lin, who directed the third and fourth films. He has already understood from the failure of "Tokyo Drift" to the success of "Fast and Furious 4". This movie is over, and there's no one better suited to direct this series than him."
