Chapter 1310: 1310

In the first week of October, everyone was watching the showdown between the "Last Assassin" and the "Seven Deadly Sins". Having said that, in fact, people know that the victory of the "Seven Deadly Sins" is basically no suspense, but the problem is that the showdown between Hugo and Brad, which people were originally concerned about, quickly dissipated like a smudge of blue smoke, and there was nothing worth hype. Moreover, in order to avoid being even more embarrassing under the instructions of the innovative artist agency, the topic of this aspect was not discussed.

Therefore, the strength of the "Seven Deadly Sins" has become the only highlight. In this case, the appearance of the "Seven Deadly Sins" has at least caused a little fluctuation in the calm box office trend. Not only has a strong background, but the release scale of 2,400 theaters is enough to launch a powerful challenge to the "Seven Deadly Sins". What people care about is not win or lose, but how much impact the "Seven Deadly Sins" can bring to the "Seven Deadly Sins", and even whether it can turn over and become a "dark horse".

The "Last Assassin" that is generally favored by people has become a dark horse at this time. This is like a joke, but it really happened. However, facts have proved that this view makes sense.

Although "The Last Assassin" was released in 2,400 theaters, the box office of a single museum was not even able to cross the 4,000 threshold. As a result, it "just" handed over a box office of 9 million US dollars, which was obviously insufficient.

There is a gap only when there is comparison. This sentence is fully reflected in "The Last Assassin". The box office of nine million US dollars is placed before the "Seven Deadly Sins". This is a work that is enough to rank among the top 20 premieres in the autumn. At any time in the past, it can easily win the championship. Although the data is not outstanding, especially compared with the investment cost of fifty million US dollars, this premiere data is really unsatisfactory, but objectively speaking, nine million is not considered a shabby, at least it is much better than the previous data of "sexy females" winning the championship of six million.

However, putting the nine-million-dollar weekend box office data in front of the 34 million premiere numbers makes all languages ​​become quibbling. Even if it is not compared with the "Seven Deadly Sins" premiere box office, the next week and the third week box office, the "The Last Assassin" is obviously not on the same level.

Under the fierce impact of the "Last Assassin", the "Seven Deadly Sins" further expanded again delivered a stunning answer, with a 15% drop of $25.4 million in one bite. The outstanding performance completely continued the strength of the "speed of life and death" at the beginning. Could it be that the "Seven Deadly Sins" really break through the 200 million threshold like the "speed of life and death"?

Thriller and suspense movies are completely different from commercial action movies. The former has a difficult box office of over 100 million, while the latter has a difficult box office of over 200 million, but it is full of 100 million. The appeal of the two in the North American box office market can be said to be very different.

So when the box office of "life and death speed" exceeded 200 million, although it was surprising, it was still within the scope of common sense. But if the "Seven Deadly Sins" reached this threshold, it would be completely shocking!

"Seven Deadly Sins" were released for three weeks, not only occupying the runner-up position in the third week's box office history rankings, but also chasing "Jurassic Park" reluctantly; at the same time, the cumulative box office in three weeks officially exceeded the 100 million threshold, reaching 103 million US dollars in one fell swoop! In this way, a series of records created by "Silenced Lambs" will be replaced, which is no doubt. What people need to look forward to now is: where will the final box office of the "Seven Deadly Sins" go? Can the subsequent box office endurance of the thriller and suspense movie really last up to the 200 million threshold?

The cumulative box office of the "Seven Deadly Sins" in the third week of the release exceeded 100 million US dollars, and the weekend box office handed over 20 million again, and the "The Last Assassin"'s nine million US dollars was beaten to no aura.

The North American box office in the first week of October came to an end without any suspense. The "Seven Deadly Sins" easily won three consecutive championships, and the "Finish Assassin" ranked second. In addition, the weekend box office of other works still did not exceed five million.

Without any competitors, the box office trend of the "Seven Deadly Sins" is completely in a shattering posture. Not to mention confrontation, other movies are not even qualified to confrontation.

In the second week of October, the "Seven Deadly Sins" grabbed $21 million in box office with a box office drop of 17% and exceeded 20 million for four consecutive weeks, which also tied the historical record set by the "Speed ​​of Life and Death". But interestingly, the box office data in the fourth week of the "Seven Death Sins" defeated "Jurassic Park", but it still ranked second, and the box office record holder in the fourth week of the release was "Speed ​​of Life and Death".

From this horizontal comparison data, we can see that the "Seven Deadly Sins" are still exhausted after all. The box office data for the first three weeks were comparable to the "Speed ​​of Life and Death" and even the box office for the first three weeks was slightly better than the "Speed ​​of Life and Death" in the next week. However, in the fourth week, the "Seven Death" could not maintain its advantage, and even lag behind the "Speed ​​of Life and Death" box office of nearly two million US dollars during the same period.

The gap gradually emerges, which can also show the innate gap between genres and suspense films and commercial action films. Just like "pulp novels" are so popular, but the box office is still not able to cross the threshold of 200 million in the end. The "Seven Deadly Sins" have created four consecutive glory due to their innate theme disadvantages and the advantages of social changes and cultural waves. This is already very rare. As for whether they can cross the threshold of 200 million in the future, the answer will be given to the film market.

Although the cumulative box office of the "Seven Deadly Sins" during the same period was almost the same as the "Speed ​​Speed ​​of Life and Death", it initially showed a decline. However, the fourth week of the release, the weekend box office of 21 million was ranked second in the film history record, which is still an incredible result. It can be said that the strength of the "Seven Deadly Sins" cannot find an opponent at all.

In addition to the "Seven Deadly Sins" this week, the box office of other works is all lower than 6 million. The gap can be said to be a huge difference. The autumn season has become the only star of the "Seven Deadly Sins".

In the third week of October, 20% of the box office decline was the "Seven Deadly Sins" and once again won 17 million US dollars in box office. This result successfully achieved the first five consecutive championships in 1995! It surpassed the four consecutive championships of "Apollo 13" during the summer season, creating another new peak, allowing the "Seven Deadly Sins" to occupy a very important seat in the annual film market.

"Get.shorty" which ranked second in the week performed very well. This comedy film with an investment of 30 million US dollars and starring John Travolta and Gene Hackman was well received after its release. It not only received a lot of praise, but also won 12 million US dollars in the weekend box office, becoming the second masterpiece in the past seven weeks in addition to the "Seven Deadly Sins" that can exceed the threshold of tens of millions in three days in the weekend.

Of course, this "excellent performance" is only relative. If the premiere box office of "The Short Man in the Road" is placed in front of any weekly data in the past four weeks of the "Seven Deadly Sins", it will be a eclipse data. It can only be said that it is a taller among the shorts. Moreover, compared with its 30 million investment, the box office data of "The Short Man in the Road" is still worthy of awards.

But the only focus of attention this week is still the "Seven Deadly Sins". There is no doubt that with the five consecutive championships, the "Seven Deadly Sins" this week officially surpassed the "Silence of the Lambs" with a box office data of $154 million, becoming the new box office champion of serial killer movies and thriller suspense movies!

Although this is a suspense, facing the absolute strength of the first five weeks of the "Seven Deadly Sins", this is almost impossible to say is a suspense, because the "Seven Deadly Sins" almost used a sprint state, and it completed the transcendence of the "Silence Lambs" in just five weeks. Such a strong performance almost killed the suspense in the cradle at the first time.

No matter how people view the work "Seven Deadly Sins" in the future, there is no doubt that its box office achievements are something that no one can surpass. The "Seven Deadly Sins" not only surpassed the "Silence of the Lambs", but also became a coordinate of film history. The box office records it created were not surpassed until 2014, and it has always been the champion of serial killer works in film history, which is out of reach.

As a thriller and suspense film that is not very popular at the box office, "Seven Deadly Sins" not only set a benchmark and set countless records, but more importantly, it proves that this type of film also has box office potential. At this point, works such as "Seven Deadly Sins" and "Pulp novels", "Schindler's List", "Seattle Sleeping Night" have all left an important mark in the history of their respective types of works.

From this perspective, in the 1990s, when classic works were gathered, Hugo also quietly became an irreplaceable coordinate for American film culture and social culture in the 1990s!

From the box office list this week, we can see that "the short man is in power" shows the impact that the "last assassin" does not have. Although the impact is still limited, at the same time, the "Seven Deadly Sins" inevitably begins to move down after more than five weeks of release. This has nothing to do with the movie itself, but is determined by the scope of the movie market itself.

Faced with such a situation, people are speculating whether the North American box office rankings will change in the next week. After all, in the third week of October, the advantages of the 17 million "Seven Deadly Sins" against the 12 million "Shortly Sins" are no longer so obvious. Of course, the initiative is still in the hands of the "Seven Deadly Sins".

In the past five weeks, the position of the box office champion has been somewhat suspenseful for the first time. When the box office rankings in the fourth week of October were announced, the "Seven Deadly Sins" continued its strong momentum. It grabbed $12 million in three days on the weekend, defeated the "Short Man" who performed well, and won the championship of this week again. This also made the champion of the "Seven Deadly Sins" win for six weeks in a row!
