Strictly speaking, no matter how beautiful the picture of "Twilight" is, how coherent the editing is, and how tight the rhythm is, the shortcomings in production funds can still be seen. However, the soul characters of the film, Edward and Isabella, are inseparable from Lee Jun-yi and

Kristen Stewart's performance firmly captured everyone's hearts, and that's enough.

When the lights of the Nokia Theater came back on, the audience stood up and applauded, accompanied by continuous screams. Among them, the voice calling for Edward was the most powerful. It can be seen that the actor still has the ability to attract box office and audiences.

Innate advantages. It cannot be said that there is inequality between men and women. It is just that male actors have always been easier to attract box office and more popular with the audience, whether it is with male or female audiences.

Although "Twilight" is told from Isabella's perspective, it was the character of Edward who won the most popularity in the end, including the role of the little werewolf Jacob starting from the second part. Isabella will become all women

The most envied character, but in terms of popularity, he is still inferior to Edward.

No matter what, these are all trivial matters. But the projection of "Twilight" is extremely successful, there is no doubt about it.

Hollywood, the most famous dream factory in the world, performs the sweetness of "hardship comes with joy" or the myth of "success and fame" every day; whether it is a popular star or a movie with a hit box office, on this stage of Hollywood, they

There are always flashes of light from around the world. This is why many artists hope to stand on the Hollywood stage.

Today, Lee Joon-yi also tried to make this challenge. And now, Lee Joon-yi has continued Hollywood's timeless "overnight fame" with the movie "Twilight" and its box office results that have stunned everyone.

"fairy tale.

Two years ago, "Dragon Rider", adapted from the best-selling fantasy novel for teenagers, had its first try, but failed miserably. This time, the novel "Twilight", which has been on the New York Times best-seller list for more than 150 weeks, has gained popularity.

"City of Lights", American teenagers - especially girls, almost all have a copy, and everyone thinks

Being proud to have read "Twilight" is exactly the same as the popularity of "Harry Potter" in previous years. Critics have the right to believe in the movie "Twilight" adapted from the "Twilight" series of novels

, it is not easy for it to achieve box office success, just like "Dragon Knight" two years ago.

However, "Twilight" succeeded. This time, it seemed that even the heavens were building momentum for Li Zhunyi and "Twilight". Taking advantage of the right time, location, and people, "Twilight" succeeded without any doubt.

Originally "Twilight" was scheduled to be released on December 12, because the movie released on November 21 includes "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", but I didn't expect that another Warner Bros. movie this summer would be released.

"Batman: The Dark Knight" was a hit, so Warner Bros. began to prepare for a rainy day. The company would have no blockbuster films to support the show next summer. If it failed, it would be shameful. In order to support the scene, Warner Bros. made a plan

A decision that has despised Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince all over the world: moving "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" to July next year, so as to ensure a hot summer season of 2009. As soon as this news came out, except for Warner Bros., it was inundated with saliva.

In addition, the movie schedule in November has also undergone huge changes. "Twilight" is one of them. The release date has been moved forward three weeks to November 21st, which was the time of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince".

.

There are no other blockbusters released this weekend. The only competitors are Disney's animated film "Lightning Dogs" and "oo7: Quantum of Solace", which was released on November 14. However, the overlap in the audience base of these three is very small, so

It will hardly pose a threat to the other party. The most important thing is that with the withdrawal of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", only "Twilight" is left as the only fantasy film in this year's Thanksgiving and Christmas movies. You know, North America

The winter season of the movie market has long been inseparable from magical movies.

——The withdrawal of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" has caused a huge change in the film schedule. This is the perfect time.

If "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" is still broadcast as planned, then "Twilight", which will be released in three weeks, will inevitably face the still hot popularity of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince". Not only will the number of viewers

It will be greatly discounted, and the number of theaters showing it will also be squeezed out. That is the worst case scenario.

But now, "Twilight" is finally confirmed to be released in 3,419 theaters. You must know that the more theaters it is released in, the more likely it is that the movie will achieve high box office. Such a large screening range ensures that no matter where it is shown,

Whether in big cities or small towns, you can watch "Twilight" simultaneously from the 21st. This is exciting news for the audience and the crew.

——The number of broadcast cinemas has increased significantly, which is a geographical advantage.

Nowadays, the tall, majestic, handsome and sunny Prince Charming is out of date, and the gloomy, indifferent, thin and charming literary youth is no longer popular. From the perspective of today's girls, a man who is cold, tall, full of mysterious charm, and has fatal temptations

, evil is like poison

, men who are as gentle as sunshine are the ones who best fit their fantasies - this is exactly what vampires are. Therefore, "Twilight" became popular and satisfied the fantasies of all women, and these loyal book fans continued to read.

Transformed into a loyal fan of the "Twilight" movie.

Among them, Edward, played by Lee Jun-yi, perfectly presents the fantasy of all women. Even the original creator, Stephenie Meyer, recognized the charm, which naturally highlights the appeal of the "Twilight" movie - this is really

It is no longer the dead thing described in the book.

In addition, since the end of last year, the Hollywood screen, which is mostly occupied by male films, has undergone considerable changes: "Enchanted" and "Juno", which are aimed at female audiences, have become popular,

The popularity of "27", "Mamma Mia", "High School Musical 3", and the movie version of "**City" also set a record for romantic comedies. This shows that female audiences are already in the movie market

occupied an important position.

Hollywood's favorite fixed audience for this film is those readers of the original novel who are eagerly waiting for the movie version. Countless women dream of seeing their beloved stories presented on the big screen as soon as possible, so they will definitely watch them in the first place.

Time pours into movie theaters; and the competitive nature of girls is taken advantage of by Hollywood here - who wants to be the failure who returns to class on Monday morning to find that he is the only one who has not seen "Twilight" yet?

What about those?

——The book is good, the person is outstanding, and the female audience is powerful. This is a harmonious relationship.

In addition, Summit Entertainment also has a good promotion strategy. The trailers and TV commercials focus on action scenes, which will make all men mistakenly think that "Twilight" is a vampire action movie, and thus enter

Cinemas. In addition, Summit Entertainment also worked hard to promote "Twilight" as a "date movie suitable for couples". This also caused many women to drag their boyfriends into the cinema when "Twilight" was released, which contributed to the box office.

Adds a lot of color.

All in all, due to the right time, location, and people, "Twilight" created a huge success that made all critics' jaws dislocate.

On November 21st, Friday, it was released in the United States. On the day of release, the revenue of zero-hour screenings was as high as 7 million U.S. dollars. At this figure, "oo7: Quantum of Solace" only had 2.6 million U.S. dollars. On Friday, "Twilight"

The box office reached US$37 million: The cost of filming "Twilight" was exactly US$37 million. The film recovered the cost on the first day of its release, which was enough to make everyone stunned. This achievement ranked first among non-summer films.

Two, second only to "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire".

Among them, the proportion of female viewers exceeded 80%, and viewers under the age of 25 accounted for 58%. This shows the strong influence of "Twilight" among American teenage girls, and also allowed Hollywood to see the powerful consumption of women.

ability.

After Friday, the best time for box office surge comes: the weekend.

The weekend has always been the most intense time for movie box office competition. Although "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" has left, except for "Lightning Dogs" and "oo7", the competition at the North American box office this week is still strong.

But the morale of "Madagascar 2" in the third week is still there

, "High School Musical 3" released last month still has a strong momentum, and the popular Oscar-winning film "The Lost Man" and "Slumdog Millionaire" have only just been released. It can be said that this weekend is the best time for a box office surge.

, but it is also the first test for the quality of "Twilight" to be tested.

The fact is that "Twilight" has withstood the test. After experiencing the craziness of the release, the craze of "Twilight" has not dissipated. It took in a box office of 55 million US dollars on Saturday and Sunday. During the opening week, "

"Twilight" has generated a box office of 92 million U.S. dollars, and is on a strong trend to exceed 100 million U.S. dollars. This achievement has shattered the eyes of almost all Hollywood industry insiders. It is really terrible.

The film's US$92 million screening performance ranks fourth among all-time November screenings in film history, second only to the three-part "Harry Potter" series.

Movies such as "Crisis" were pushed to the back. And this result still ranked fourth, second only to "The Dark Knight", "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Iron Man".

Of course, there is no doubt that the performance of "Twilight" ranks first in the history of vampire movies. In addition, the Friday and Sunday box office of "Twilight" ranks 14th in the history of film releases.

Even surpassing "Iron Man" - you must know that "Iron Man" has a weekly box office of over 100 million, and "Twilight" has become the second highest-grossing movie, second only to "The Dark Knight".

At this time, the success of "Twilight" no longer needs elaboration. The solid box office results are enough to make all people in the industry stunned.
