In the later generations of Hollywood, the reason why original movies have been declining, and adaptations and sequels have become popular, mainly because of the problem of the fan base.

You should know that although there is a difference between the high and low reputation of movies, in the final analysis, except for some people who like to make more movies, most people can only contribute one movie ticket to a movie.

This means that from a certain perspective, movies are actually a one-shot deal.

As long as you spend money to watch it, no matter how the audience evaluates the movie, his personal contribution to the movie's box office will basically not change.

But word-of-mouth thing has gradually become more accurate with the passage of the movie's release time.

——In the early stage of the screening, you can still spend money to brush up a wave of praise. But when the word-of-mouth evaluation gradually ferments, the praise you brushed becomes gradually useless.

In this case, the sooner possible target audiences are allowed to enter the movie theater, it means that the box office performance of the movie will be less affected by word of mouth.

——For movies with a good reputation, this actually has no effect, but for movies with a poor reputation or in general, it means more income.

After all, even if you swindle and run away, you will make money after all.

What's more, the sharing mechanism between the film party and the theater house also makes the film party more willing to concentrate the income in the early stage of the release.

You know, with the extension of the screening time, the box office split will gradually tilt towards the theaters responsible for the screenings.

In other words, the same small goal of 100 million at the box office is achieved, and the revenue that the film can get is actually different if it is achieved within three days of release and one month after release.

This naturally makes the film party more willing to make money quickly.

——Because this not only means stability, but also more.

As for the theaters, although the proportion is a little less than that of long-term screenings, the shorter screening time means that more new movies can be released.

The shortening of the projection period also makes the theater's projection hall more likely to be full.

——In general, the theater is also profitable.

Therefore, shortening the screening cycle can be described as the common aspiration of the film industry.

Before the 1990s, due to the lack of theaters, the speed of media propaganda could not keep up, so that the box office potential of a movie could not burst out in a short period of time. So most movies need to be shown on a long-term basis.

But after the 1990s, with the development of the Internet industry, the media’s publicity and promotion capabilities became stronger and stronger. It became feasible to shorten the release period and quickly tap the box office potential of movies.

Many major commercial productions have begun to use large-scale publicity to make box office revenues burst out in a short period of time.

After 2000, there were not a few movies with a box office showing over 100 million in the first week.

——Toby Maguire's "Spider-Man" is the best example.

However, if you want to break the 100 million box office in the first week, it often means that a lot of pre-publicity is required, which invisibly will generate a lot of publicity costs.

At this time, how to reduce the cost of publicity under the premise of ensuring the effect of publicity has become an important issue.

At the same time, this is also the reason why adapted films and sequels have become popular after 2000, while original films have drifted away.

——Because the adaptation or sequel movie has the original or the base of the previous episode, many fans will be left behind.

This makes publicity a lot easier.

And these fans are often the hardest viewers—their tendency to watch movies is least affected by word of mouth, and it is often them who like to watch the premiere.

——This is also the reason why Hollywood production companies feel that adaptation and sequel movies have a higher success rate.

And now, as the adaptation of the famous comic book Constantine, "Detective of Hell" has naturally received the early box office bonus of the comic film——

"The box office broke 100 million in the first week!"

On Monday morning, looking at the box office report in his hand, Aziva Gosman trembled with excitement.

You know, unlike after 2000, it is not a common thing for the box office to exceed 100 million in the first week in 1997.

Although in the first two days of its release, the total box office of "Hell Detective" has reached a staggering 90 million US dollars.

At that time, Aziva felt the possibility of breaking 100 million box office in the first week.

But before the facts came, he still couldn't believe this reality.

Until now-

"Sunday's box office also had 43 million U.S. dollars. Adding up, the box office in hand even reached 133 million U.S. dollars, which is simply—"

Aziva had no idea what to say.

However, he feels that those high-levels within Warner Bros. should be very entangled at this time-

The box office success of the movie "Detective of Hell" naturally proved that it was the right choice for them to hand over the comic adaptation rights of "Constantin" to Charlotte Booth;

On the other hand, the box office of "Hell Detective" was too successful, and it would make them regret why they sold the copyright of the film to Charlotte Booth.

——At the beginning, it seemed so wise that it could greatly reduce Warner’s investment and risk measures, but now it seems like a brain flooded.

"The bosses of the headquarters must have hit the wall regretfully!"

Aziva Gosman thought gleefully.

As a small producer, he doesn't know how to **** the bosses.

At this time, what he wanted more was to further increase the box office of "Hell Detective".

After all, he also knows that even if "Hell Detective" has a good reputation, this kind of perverted box office trend cannot be sustained for a long time.

"However, even with the original fan bonus, Charlotte Booth is good enough to be able to do this!"

Aziva sighed in his heart.

Through the audience questionnaire survey report, he can see clearly——

The director Charlotte Booth is the third biggest factor in attracting audiences to the cinema after the two factors of "The Original of Constantine" and "Keanu Reeves".

It even surpassed the heroine Judy Foster.

It can be said that the box office of "Detective of Hell" can exceed 100 million in the first week, not only because of Charlotte's ability to direct as a director, but also because of his reputation——

As an emerging commercial film director who has never failed at the box office, he has a high status in the hearts of the audience.

And film critics who have always been contemptuous of comics movies, this time they took a rare look at "Detective of Hell"——

"This is an unusual comic film. While it is both commercial, it explores human nature even more than many feature films..."

——Roger Albert gave a rare manga movie with two thumbs up.

You must know ~lightnovelpub.net~ which belonged to Warner's "Batman Forever" before, but he was sprayed with incomplete body.

As for Kenneth Turan, who has always liked commercial movies, this time he sang praises for "Detective of Hell"——

"The story is well-designed, reversed repeatedly, and the rhythm is moderately controlled. Charlotte Booth tells a very good story. What's even better is the end-of-film battle, which is simply a classic of action movies..."

——It can be seen that, like many audiences and film critics, Kenneth Turan also likes the action scene in which Constantine singles out many demons in the late film. Full of praise.

In contrast, Richard Manson, who likes to comment on acting, pays more attention to acting——

"Keanu Reeves rarely contributed a wonderful performance, and Judy Foster even played policewoman Angela-I think director Charlotte Booth must have a magic wand , As long as he clicks on the actor with it, the actor will be able to open his mouth."

"So, those stars who have no acting skills, your chance is here!" ()
