The entertainment industry shouldn't be like this

Chapter 259 A movie that failed miserably?
In fact, not only gamers are paying attention, but more passers-by audiences are paying attention to these two films of the same period.

In other words, since the confrontation between Dunhuang and the Big Five was made public, every time they compete head-to-head, attention is indispensable.

It's just that this time the PK has a fresher topic——

One is the so-called "milestone of game-changing movies", and the other is produced by Dunhuang, which "never disappoints movie fans". Who is better, the result of trial and error stepping on the corpses of countless predecessors, setting a new record for downstream-changing movies?

Or, like the corpses of their predecessors, the two became new results of trial and error?

——These topics have aroused the interest of many movie fans.

Of course, judging from the current situation, whether it is the reputation of film critics released in advance, or the powerful publicity offensive, or even the signs revealed in advance on September 9, all show that the advantages of "The Legend of the Ranger" are not ordinary. big.

On October 10st, the National Day file war was fully launched.

Then, when the time came to the 2nd, the box office of the first day of the National Day show came out in advance, and the whole country was so scared that the eyeballs dropped all over the place——

The box office of "Legend of the Ranger" is as high as more than 9600 million!Directly parachuting to No.1 in the box office rankings on National Day!
This is an astonishing box office that almost no one could have expected before!

Almost breaking [-] million in a single day, what is the concept?

Even after the movie ticket price increases, there are only a few movies with a single-day box office in China that exceed [-] million yuan each year.

The most important thing is that for such a movie, the final box office is likely to exceed one billion, or at least close to one billion.

This, for a game adaptation movie, is scary!
Including Wang Wei and Shen Zhenyi, they were shocked when they saw the box office figures.

You know, "Resident Evil" took more than a day, and the total box office was only more than 4700 million!

To be honest, as an original IP, this result is already considered pretty good.

But who would have imagined that the box office is not half as much as that of its competitors?
Big trouble now!

They all know that if there is a phenomenal movie in the same period, it will steal all the limelight and occupy more resources, leaving other opponents in the same period to compete for leftovers.

Regardless of whether it is Dunhuang's first series of movies in the true sense, or Shen Zhenyi's first film as a producer, or even going further, Dunhuang's "movie-game linkage" strategy cannot afford such a fiasco!
This made the two of them walk into the cinema again with make-up, and contributed two movie tickets to their competitors, wanting to see how good this movie is?
totally unexpected……

After watching the movie, the two of you looked at me and I looked at you, and both saw the same confusion on each other's faces——

"That's it?"

Really, it’s not that the filming of "The Legend of the Ranger" is bad, it should be said that it is a qualified, no, relatively excellent commercial film;

But, the distance from the "classic work" and "magic work" they imagined is not so big.

and also--

"Don't bully me that I haven't played the game "The Legend of the Ranger". This movie of the same name only borrows the world view and name of the game, and the rest has nothing to do with the game."

After walking out of the theater, Shen Zhenyi couldn't help complaining,
"In terms of the interrelationship and complementarity between the plot of the movie and the game, can "Resident Evil" beat this movie!"

Wang Wei agreed with her very much.

In his opinion, this "Legend of the Ranger" is equivalent to the original movie "Resident Evil" in another time and space - except for some concepts, it is almost an original story independent of the game;
On the contrary, it is the "Resident Evil" of this world, which closely fits the main story line of the game in terms of plot, and is faithfully based on the world view of the game series——

The main story line of the game is that the hero and heroine search for the truth in the city where the zombie virus broke out, and look for the heroine's missing sister;
And the movie is about my sister waking up in a biochemical experiment institution. On the one hand, she was attacked by zombies repeatedly, and on the other hand, through the gradually recovering memory, she revealed that she had an extraordinary connection with the disaster maker...

——It can be said that the movie of "Resident Evil" is another branch of the game's world view, and it will serve as a link between the first and second games.

In particular, the personal stories of many characters in the movie will be introduced in more detail in the game.

Therefore, rather than saying that "Resident Evil" is a game-adapted movie, it is better to say that it is a game-derived movie.

——Only the linkage mode of game development and film production like Dunhuang can achieve such cooperation.

"Actually, the adaptation strategy of "The Legend of the Ranger" is not wrong. Although it is essentially to please passers-by and viewers at the expense of offending game fans, after all, there is a fairly complete plot story, which can make money at the box office. .”

Wang Wei first praised it—after all, just like "Resident Evil" in another time and space, didn't it also become a series under such creative logic?
"But, such quality is definitely not worthy of the amazing first-day box office, so, the real reason is..."

"Fans join us!" Shen Zhenyi also figured it out at this time, pouted and said, "With such a huge fan base supporting me, China Media may have to smile crookedly."

Yes, with the good word-of-mouth publicity in the early stage, the fan base accumulated in the game "The Legend of the Ranger" probably flooded into the cinema on the first day.

"If that's the case, the dust has not yet settled."

Wang Wei shrugged and said in a relaxed tone.

"Because the tone is too high?"

The little girl answered the words with a tacit understanding, and got a look of approval from Wang Wei.

exactly.

Of course, compared to passer-by audiences, the tolerance of fans is much higher - just like in "Warcraft", as long as you shout "For the Horde", countless fans can get a psychological orgasm, no longer worry about why they chose Such a story.

But the premise is that your tone is not so high!
What was shouted in front of it was "a milestone work in game-changing movies", which made game fans come here with the mentality of watching a masterpiece, but they saw a movie that had nothing to do with games. Guess how game fans will feel ?
As we all know, it is because of love that people hate, and those who criticize the game game movies the most are precisely the loyal game fans.

"Just wait and see..."

The two people who knew each other looked at each other and smiled.

……

However, not many feel that the dust has yet to settle.

In the eyes of most people, such a box office basically declares that the general trend of the National Day file is set——

"Legend of the Ranger" has formed a crushing advantage over other films at the box office. As the theaters are tilted in the film schedule, its advantage will only become more obvious!

What?Word of mouth showing polarization?

It's okay, the controversy proves that the popularity is high. Besides, which movie with a big box office is not controversial?

Some people have even shouted: the spring of game adaptation movies is here!

Some people can't tell whether they are shouting or cheering: the "myth" of Dunhuang is finally gone...

However, soon, the subsequent box office trend exceeded everyone's expectations.

——Including Wang Wei!

　New year and new weather, the number of code words is difficult to change~~~
