Chapter 622: best annotation

In the dark bedroom, Francis Lawrence was suddenly awakened by a nightmare. He felt a zombie rushing towards him. He quickly reached out and turned on the lamp. The soft light instantly dispelled the darkness. He saw that there were no zombies in the bedroom, and he knew that he had just had a nightmare. , breathed a sigh of relief.

But he immediately noticed that something was wrong, and there was no one beside him.

"Where's Paula?" Francis Lawrence muttered. "It's almost twelve o'clock at night, and you're out again?"

He put on his nightgown and walked out of the bedroom. There was a faint light on the first floor. He quickly turned to the stairs, went all the way downstairs, and followed the light to the living room. He saw Paula Patton standing in front of the cross in the living room, as if he was Sincere prayer.

Came behind Paula Button, Francis Lawrence heard Paula Button praying.

"Our Father in heaven, may all be holy in your name, may your kingdom come, may your will be done on earth as it is in heaven, may Matthew Horner be no more welcome, and I pray It's Legendary's low box office made Alien vs. Predator 2 a hit. Amen!"

Paula Patton finished drawing the cross on her chest and stood silently for a while, then turned to look behind and said to Francis Lawrence, "Why are you up?"

Francis Lawrence took a piece of clothing from a hanger next to it, draped it over Paula Patton's shoulders, and said, "When you wake up, you're gone, I'll come to find you."

Paula Patton pulled Francis Lawrence to the sofa and sat down, saying, "I was always thinking about "I Am Legend" when I was lying down. I couldn't sleep, so I got down."

Francis Lawrence patted her hand lightly, but he didn't know what to say. Compared with Paula Patton, he wanted to see Matthew Horner unlucky, so that his friend Spike Lee felt in his heart when he saw it. I will feel better, maybe I can get rid of the corruption of alcohol and drugs, and I will cheer up and become a fighter for freedom and democracy again.

But he saw the early box office of "I Am Legend" this morning, knowing that it was destined to be just an extravagant hope.

"Don't think about it." Francis Lawrence comforted.

Paula Barton didn't know this, but couldn't let it go, and said, "How could I not want to? "I Am Legend" opened in 4,200 theaters at the same time, and almost all commercial theaters have screenings. If the box office is super big in the first weekend …”

She shook her head, "I know, "I Am Legend" will definitely be a big box office hit this week, but it will break out to $100 million, and it will continue to run at a high level next weekend, which is bound to affect "Alien vs. Predator." 2" of the film."

Francis Larence sighed, but did not speak. These are all issues for Twentieth Century Fox to consider. He is just a small director and has no right to speak.

Paula Patton drew another cross on her chest and said reverently, "I only hope that the box office of "I Am Legend" will not exceed 30 million US dollars on the first day, and the box office will be less than 100 million US dollars in the first weekend."

Pre-sale and early-stage box office are here, and her prayers are very realistic.

Francis Lawrence patted Paula Patton's hand again, "Hopefully it won't exceed $100 million."

The clock on the wall rang suddenly, Paula Patton stood up immediately, went into the study on the other side, turned on the computer, and after Francis Lawrence came over, he logged on to the website of the box office tracker "Media Digital", but the data on the website It has not been updated yet. Behind the box office statistics of "I Am Legend", it is still $14.6 million in advance.

"It hasn't been updated yet?" Paula Patton couldn't wait to refresh the web page one after another. When she refreshed it for the fifth time, the box office statistics of "I Am Legend" finally changed.

Seeing that box office number, she couldn't help but be stunned, and Francis Lawrence was also stunned.

$42.8 million!

"I Am Legend" on the first day of the film's opening is calculated to be 42.8 million US dollars in advance at the box office!

Paula Patton and Francis Lawrence were both stunned in front of the computer. If the box office on the first day is less than 30 million US dollars, they will not break the 100 million US dollar mark in the first weekend and three days! It surpassed $30 million on the first day, and is expected to hit the $100 million figure in the first weekend.

But the box office on the first day was 42.8 million US dollars!

This means that the odds of "I Am Legend" breaking through $100 million in the North American opening weekend are as low as 90%!

Paula Barton looked up at Francis Lawrence. The two looked at each other and saw the helplessness and powerlessness. What was the use of praying?

"I hope... I hope..." Paula Patton was firmly pressed on the chair by a feeling of powerlessness from the bottom of her heart, "I hope our "Alien vs. Predator 2" can have "I Am Legend" Half of the box office in the first week."

Francis Lawrence shook his head, "I'll be satisfied with $42.8 million."

The two looked at the numbers on the box-office tracker "Media Digital" website and sat there quietly, not saying a word.

With the box office sales of "I Am Legend" on the first day, the media attention has been further increased, and with the careful planning and preparation of Warner Bros., a large wave of publicity and promotion also broke out on Saturday.

In addition to publishing an interview with Matthew, The New York Times also reported this.

"I Am Legend earned $42.8 million at the box office on its first day of release, ranking 11th in film history, and also set the record for the highest opening day in North America in December, and the highest opening day in a vampire movie. "I Am Legend" rushed to the top of the North American single-day box office chart. This is also Matthew Horner's best holiday premiere since filming. The film once again proved that Matthew Horner is unparalleled. Box office appeal.”

Yahoo.com highlighted the other side in its entertainment headlines.

"Is "I Am Legend" good? On the Internet portal, the media rating of "I Am Legend" is 'A-' and the audience rating is 'A'. In the forty-five film reviews collected by Rotten Tomatoes, the freshness of "I Am Legend" is 61%. Among purely commercial films, DB website also gave a high score of 8.5. According to With the current situation, "I Am Legend" is expected to eventually exceed $300 million at the North American box office."

The "Washington Post" published the headline on the entertainment page: "I Am Legend" as a "sci-fi horror film" has the honor to reach such a high level in the happy season of the family, it is appalling!

However, a report in the "Los Angeles Times" may serve as the best note.

"Among the active actors in Hollywood today, there are not many people who are qualified to be called 'I am a legend', and Matthew Horner is undoubtedly one of them. Although the huge salary of '$20 million + box office dividends' makes it difficult to Matthew Horner was put off by a small number of studios, but all the studios who overpaid him were rewarded enormously.”

"So, when Matthew Horner, the sci-fi, thriller, action, magic, dub and plot-killer, succeeds again, it's not enough to just count the box office numbers. The contribution of "I Am Legend" to the entire industry , especially today when the screenwriters are on strike and the industry is in a state of unease, it is of great significance....What is a Uranus superstar? This kind of person deserves it! I feel that this kind of person doesn't get a salary of 20 million US dollars. Will the money go to Warner Bros for Catwoman or Sony Entertainment to make Top Secret? For Matthew Horner, not to mention acting, the box office appeal speaks for itself.”

"Speaking of acting skills, Warner Bros. and the production team of I Am Legend should also thank Matthew Horner for holding the scene with Wanfu Mokai's strong aura and unparalleled star charm. He contributed to the film. With the best performance of the holiday season, it's also a fascinating mystery how the Oscars will judge Matthew Horner's stellar performance in I Am Legend."

The large-scale coverage of the media can attract more people to pay attention to Matthew and the film "I Am Legend".

On Saturday, "I Am Legend" continued to be popular in theaters, with both the film schedule and attendance rate dwarfing the films released during the same period. In an interview with the media, Paul Degarabedian, president of box office tracker "Media Digital", said: I mentioned Matthew again~www.readwn.com~Why is the box office of "I Am Legend" so high? Because Matthew Horner is liked by all races in the United States, he is not only popular with whites, but also popular among African Americans, Latinos, and even Asians very much. "

Paul Degarabedian has no hesitation in his admiration for Matthew on the TV camera, "In Hollywood, the 20 million club is usually used as the standard to measure the A-list stars, and the movies starring these stars usually have a strong appeal. However, in today's increasingly high production costs, such as Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks, Harrison Ford, Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts these 20 million club stars, In recent years, the new work has been weak, and the selling ability has not been as good as before, only Matthew Horner is still worth the money as always."

Finally, he also talked about the empty cities in "I Am Legend", "No wonder Matthew Horner feels lonely, because the rest of the earth is going to the cinema to see his movies."

The addition of these reports has formed many favorable conditions, and many movie fans who did not belong to Matthew also entered the theater one after another to buy movie tickets for "I Am Legend".

Also, those who turned fans in the middle of the event of giving away real estate also contributed a considerable share of the film's box office.

If nothing else, according to what Helen Herman told Matthew, many professional PR firms in the Hollywood industry have studied this incident as a classic case.

After Saturday, "I Am Legend" took in another $40.2 million, bringing the North American box office total to $83 million, just one step away from $100 million.

Of course, no one will ignore that Warner Bros. is also one of the key factors behind the film's big box office sales.
