Best Movie Star

Chapter 691: The brains of a talented audience

After the premiere, it didn't take long for Matthew to return to Horner Manor when he received a call from Helen Herman. Walt Disney had already reached the early box office statistics for "Twilight." Of the 3,150 theaters showing early screenings in North America, it took in $13.2 million.

That's a very good early-stage box-office performance, easily surpassing "Iron Man" and "Hancock for All," which were released this summer.

It is also second only to The Dark Knight's $18.5 million early-stage box office among films already released in 2008.

The latter has accumulated more than 500 million US dollars at the North American box office so far!

This happiness came too suddenly. In just ten minutes, Matthew received calls from David Ellison, Lily Collins, Nina Dobrev and Sofia Coppola. .

Although she is conscious of being a young woman in literature and art, Sofia Coppola is very aware of the importance of box office to directors. It is not that she does not want to develop into the commercial field. "The Peerless Queen" is an attempt, but the success rate of female directors in the field of commercial films is too high. It seems to be more suitable for development in literature and art.

Sofia Coppola was a little emotional when she called and wanted to come over and talk to Matthew all night.

But Nina Dobrev was practicing rhythmic gymnastics with him, and as a very professional and "artistic" audience, Matthew duly revealed to Sofia Coppola, if Sofia Coppola was coming Appreciate it together, of course he will not refuse.

Unfortunately, Sofia Coppola quickly calmed down and dismissed the idea of ​​coming over.

On Friday morning, as soon as many theaters opened for business, they ushered in the peak viewing period. Countless young girls flocked in, and the goal of buying tickets was basically "Twilight".

This youth idol movie dressed in a fantasy coat is extremely popular.

"The film tells about the unconditional love between humans and vampires. It is the vampire version of "Romeo and Juliet". Although it focuses on the love card, the film cleverly incorporates vampires, werewolves and other fantasy elements, which enhances the whole story. Attractive. Faced with such a story, many girls will naturally yearn for it, and love has always ignited people's passion and madness. In addition, the film is beautiful and melancholy, and the music is well-made and commendable. "

On social networking sites, young girls who have watched the film can't wait to share their love for the film.

Some female film critics who are not too old also seem to like the film.

"As a typical female film, "Twilight" is indeed exciting enough and successful enough. It combines love and fantasy in modern times, builds a fantasy world, and satisfies the girl's dream of light and shadow in Huaichun. Undoubtedly, the movie is full of seductive charm, and under that beautiful youthful pure love, a handsome vampire with superpowers, a kind and beautiful girl, the two know and fall in love across many barriers. The power of love is so powerful. Romantic and sincere…”

"Every character in "Twilight" is so delicate and soft, even the fight between vampires is not so bloody. This film satisfies little girls' yearning and imagination for love, this is a movie A beautiful romantic film."

As the film officially opened in North America on a scale of more than 3,600 theaters, more and more audiences saw "Twilight", and book fans and young girls were fascinated by the film. ” is even more praised.

"I like movies with this theme very much. I can't help but be obsessed. The male protagonist is super handsome, and the actors' acting skills are all online."

"Only the appearance of the male and female protagonists is enough for me to watch the entire series, not to mention the exquisite pictures."

"This movie meets my expectations for a beautiful romantic and extraordinary relationship, so it must be a movie that girls love."

Fans are crazy about what they like, and the girls always fantasize that they are Mary Sue, so they must not be rational enough to look at this film.

A young girl's message widely retweeted on Twitter is representative.

"I also want to find a man who can fly, is in charge, and has a family! The part that **** blood the most is very loving! The bad reviews are all jealous men, the mature women who cross the line, and the pretenders. Good reviews It's immature girls and boys living in fantasy."

It is with the crazy support of these people that "Twilight" took $41.2 million from North America on its first day of release!

In just one day, the film's North American box office exceeded its production costs!

"That's a $41.2 million one-day box office!"

Inside a newly decorated mansion in Beverly Hills, Natalie Portman looked at the number on the newspaper and was quite shocked, "According to normal rules, the first weekend box office of "Twilight" It is entirely possible to cross the $100 million mark!"

The previous thoughts suddenly poured out, and she rolled her throat. She obviously thought too much. Matthew Horner is still the Matthew Horner who can accurately grasp the film market.

success! success! Another success! This Matthew Horner is nothing short of a success-making machine!

Suddenly, she had an idea. Was it wrong to introduce Brad Pitt to the Wachowskis for money? Would the odds of success be higher with Matthew Horner?

But such a thought flashed by. Natalie Portman is not the kind of indecisive person. How could she have the money to buy this mansion if she hadn't cooperated with Brad Pitt and Plan B?

Now "Cloud Atlas" is in post-production, and "Alien Battlefield" is about to start shooting. She has already boarded the ship of Brad Pitt and Plan B, and she will not be able to get off in a short time.

With the release of the box office on the first day, most of the media who had been bad at "Twilight" before its release also changed their positions, believing that the film was at least a commercial success.

"Matthew Horner is very good at making money, and this "Twilight" is a typical example of a successful investment. He knows that the people who go to the cinema to see this kind of film are often girls, and even if there are boys, it is often boys who invite girls Go and see, so as long as you please girls, you will please everyone."

"The Sun" first acknowledged the commercial success of "Twilight", and then continued with the same style as before, "But he pleases girls like this, so he has a holiday with boys! I don't know how many boys accompany girls to watch this film. Vomiting? I guess they all hate Matthew Horner?"

Finally, I don't forget to sarcastically say, "This time the vampire is on the market, whitening products will be introduced to the male market. Those cosmetics companies should really find Matthew Horner as the marketing director."

The commercial success of "Twilight" comes from its precise grasp of the movie market segment, but behind the $41.2 million box office on the first day, there are also countless male audiences who were accidentally injured by the film.

It is not right to say that it was accidental injury. These men basically entered the stage to please the female audience, but "Twilight" is really not suitable for mature men to watch.

Inevitably, the word of mouth of "Twilight" has been very polarized.

"It's so bad that I want to cry."

"Girl's brain fragments!"

"I can't accept this kind of film, I can't watch it at all."

"How can anyone like it, the mentally retarded plot, the inexplicable love, the funny style... It's too much to give one point..."

"The male protagonist is not good-looking and has no masculine temperament. Once you get used to watching it, it will pass. The heroine's acting skills are really unbearable. I'm dumbfounded, I can't see any emotional changes, and how can they get along better? I don't understand, the feelings are inexplicable!"

These are pretty good, but some disgusted male viewers can't bear it anymore, and they made foul language directly on the Internet.

"I can't stand the heroine's dying expression from beginning to end! Who can tell that they are in love? The pace is too slow, and a bad movie! Waste of my time!"

"The subject matter is old-fashioned, the plot is boring, the styling is stupid and ridiculous, the worst vampire movie I've ever seen!"

"A piece of shit... I feel like I've read a lot of low-quality girl manga!"

"Bella could have fed Edward her monthly menstrual blood, or it would have been a waste."

I have to say that some talented audiences have brain holes so big that the original author, Stephanie Meyer, collapsed directly.

In the film "Twilight", male audiences and female audiences formed a sharp opposition~www.readwn.com~ In the past, popular female films such as "Magic" or "Juno", although female audiences Obviously more than the male audience, but also did not produce such a contrasting view.

A girl who is intoxicated with romance and Mary Sue will certainly not give up when she sees someone scolding her for her wonderful dream.

One of Disney's superstar-level Super Mary Sue girls stood up.

Miley Cyrus, who played Hannah Montana, responded to the male audience's abuse of "Twilight" as a "Twilight" fan.

"As far as this film is concerned, it seems that most of the girls I like, and most of them scold are hooligans. If you position yourself as a girl, there is no reason why you should not like such a pure love; if you position yourself as a girl Rogue, there must be a contemptuous smile on the corner of his mouth, say cut~"

"It's like when you were an innocent boy and girl, and you looked down on those rambunctious mature men and women, and thought they were unscrupulous, immoral, dirty, and obscene. You heard them tell very dirty and violent jokes, and you put up with them. He turned his head away, his eyes flashing with anger."

"When you finally grow into mature men and women, you will look down on those loli Zhengtai, thinking that they have no knowledge, no experience, and no brains."

"From the rogue's side, these good-looking handsome men and beauties are simply ridiculous, especially when I think that the author's aunt cheated so much money with such a love story, and my heart is full of jealousy."

"From the girl's side, even though I know that a man with red lips, white teeth, tall, handsome, strong, strong, flying over the walls, has a car, a house, immortal eyes, evil charm, gentleness, devotion, strong desire to protect, and knows how to restrain his desires, there is no man, but I can't help but want Follow YY..."

For the sake of marketing, Disney Pictures even pulled out its most popular youth idol.
