In 1996, Thanksgiving was on November 28, which was later than in previous years. However, the Thanksgiving schedule started on November 15.
"Rush Hour" is not too conspicuous in the film that opened in November. After all, although "Red Zone" caused a good response in North America at the beginning of the year, films with Chinese protagonists are still a niche in Hollywood. Although the response from the critics after the test screening was good, the industry still only gave a box office forecast of 60 million to 80 million US dollars. A large part of this is due to the fact that there is a black person in the two protagonists, and black people are recognized in Hollywood. Slightly lower than whites, but far more than Chinese.
On November 15th, "Rush Hour" opened in more than 2,600 theaters in North America. At the same time, Warner's film "Space Jam", which combines live action and animation, starred the famous Michael Jordan and Bugs Bunny. , the story tells that the cosmic monster tried to kidnap all the animated characters of Warners, including Bugs Bunny and Toffee Duck, to the space playground. In order to avoid being caught, the two sides finally decided to play a basketball game to decide the fate of all the animated characters. The space monster easily learned a lot of NBA superstar skills, and in desperation, Bugs Bunny turned to NBA superstar Michael Jordan for help.
The 1988 film "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", a combination of live action and animation, achieved a high box office of 150 million in North America at a cost of $45 million. Warner's "Space Slam Dunk" obviously wanted to replicate that year. The box office success of "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", the industry's expectations for the film are also very high.
However, when "Rush Hour" and "Space Slam Dunk" were released at the same time, the box office status of the two films was completely opposite to the industry's expectations, which surprised many people.
"Rush Hour" grossed more than $42 million in its first week, surpassing its cost of $33 million in one fell swoop, and easily won the box office championship of the week. Even according to the box office curve of "Red Zone" at the beginning of the year, the cumulative box office of this film will be close to 100 million US dollars, but the audience loves this humorous film that is full of humor and humor, from dialogue to martial arts. Far more than "Red Zone", after the film was released, the media quickly adjusted "Rush Hour"'s total North American box office forecast to between 120 million and 140 million US dollars.
"Space Jam"'s first-week box office was only 32 million, not only a full $10 million lower than "Rush Hour", but also far from Warner's first-week box office forecast of $50 million. However, the cost of this film is more than double that of "Rush Hour", reaching 80 million US dollars. According to the current box office curve of the film, the film will be able to recover the cost through the later overseas distribution. The plan for the series of films was directly shelved, and there was no further follow-up.
Subsequently, on November 22, "Mission Impossible 2" was officially released in 3,000 theaters in North America. This super agent film can be said to be the most anticipated film by the audience at the end of this year.
The production cost is also second only to "Titanic". Paramount chose to transfer "Star Trek: First Contact" from the Thanksgiving schedule to the Christmas schedule a few days ago. But the other party's announced purpose of avoiding "Mission Impossible 2" is not just an excuse.
Relying on the popularity accumulated by the previous work and the strong influence of the MGM film universe, "Mission Impossible 2" lived up to expectations and achieved a box office of 82.7 million US dollars in the first week, easily breaking the box office record of the traditional Thanksgiving schedule in North America. In 1996, the first-week box office chart of North American films was second only to the summer file "The Mummy 2".
Since MGM announced the agent movie universe plan, the sequels of the two series of "Charlie's Angels" and "Mission Impossible" that have been launched have all achieved very brilliant success. Casino", after the release of "Mission Impossible 2", MGM's stock price rose again, the share price per share once exceeded 18.5 US dollars, and the company's total market value easily exceeded 8 billion US dollars.
Although the media industry as a whole has been rising rapidly in the past two years, MGM's market value is still at the bottom of the top seven, only slightly better than Sony Pictures, but compared to the market value of only more than one billion US dollars two years ago, MGM The growth rate is definitely the highest among the seven.
Eric spent Thanksgiving with Nicole and Famke in Los Angeles. In December, the two women flew back to Australia and the Netherlands to spend Christmas with their families. Eric also temporarily stopped post-production work on "Casino Royale". Fly to New York with Xiao Nizi and spend Christmas with Joanna and the others.
In the Southampton manor, fine snowflakes are fluttering outdoors at this time, but the house is warm.
Today is December 12th, and the time is evening.
Eric made a call and returned to the living room from the living room next to him.
The TV was turned on in the living room, but at this time, the family was lively surrounding the glass table in the center of the living room, and there were many beautifully printed New Year cards on the glass table.
Joanna, who was kneeling on the thick carpet, looked away from her daughter, who was writing and drawing on the glass table, and looked at Eric, with a questioning look in her eyes.
Eric glanced at the TV, the Golden Globe nominations will be announced at 8 o'clock through nb, noticed Virginia's expression, and explained: "Chris called, he asked me to talk to Manhattan tomorrow. Issues."
Virginia also asked at this time: "Then are you coming back tomorrow?"
"Of course," Eric nodded, also leaned over and sat down on the carpet, looking at little Kevin who was clumsily holding a pen and writing on a card.
