Ask for a recommendation ticket! Ask for a recommendation ticket!
The screening was about to start, and while the lights on the ceiling were still on, Ronan observed the theater carefully. Although the promotional scale of Kingsman was not large, it was very targeted, and some viewers entered the theater. Hall, but the number of people is not too many.
After a rough count, there are about twenty people, both men and women, and the majority are men, more than two-thirds.
The lights were fairly bright, and Ronan could tell the difference between men and women, and he couldn't tell the ethnicity from behind, but he could vaguely see a lot of black people.
This kind of film in which ethnic minorities play the leading role is indeed the power of the black uncles.
The reality today is that the proportion of white audiences in theaters is gradually decreasing, and the proportion of minority audiences is steadily increasing. This is also related to the social environment. Ronan has read related reports, and the proportion of whites in the United States is also declining year by year. Especially productive The number of blacks increased very rapidly.
If the positions of the two sides suddenly reversed sometime in the future, the white leftists really screwed themselves over.
Ronan is a pseudo-white leftist and pseudo-progressive, there is no doubt about it, there are many people like him in North America.
Even with the knowledge of his previous life, he couldn't understand what the true-white leftists were thinking.
Maybe they all went to Arkham Asylum for further study?
As the saying goes, Blackgate Prison is in charge of physical training, while Arkham is in charge of all-round spiritual guidance.
Black Gate teaches pediatrics, and Arkham is the place where people are really transformed.
The film began to be screened, first with the opening credits of the distributor, Embassy Pictures, then a desert of the producer, Shahai Entertainment, and then the film began with a ping-pong-pong action scene.
Compared to the Kingsman in the previous life with all kinds of black technology and action scenes, this Kingsman is much shabby, there is basically no black technology, and the fighting basically depends on shaking...
The action shots shot by Paul Greengrass already have the shadow of the action style of Bourne Shadow 2.
The sharp editing creates a bullet-like rhythm, and the simple plot is clear at a glance. With the addition of agents and actions, this film still has a certain appeal.
The plot of the film is very simple, and it is similar to the previous film as a whole. It is roughly that the father of the actor died while receiving training from a world sex spy organization. The actor grew up happily under the serious and responsible support of the Abu Dhabi official until One day a group of white terrorists suddenly appeared in Abu Dhabi, causing severe injuries to the Arab officials who funded him. The hero learned about his father's glorious deeds from the dying Arab officials. Looking at the dead officials and innocent people everywhere, he decided to find Organization, join the organization.
The male protagonist successfully joins the organization by using his father's relics. The teacher is a black man, the students around him are all ethnic minorities, and the only white man is a villain and a softie...
Traitors appeared within the organization, colluded with terrorists, killed black teachers, and wanted to use calling cards to drive people all over the world crazy, in order to achieve the purpose of healing the earth.
Then the male protagonist and his companions went into the terrorist lair, and against the background of people all over the world going crazy, they killed all the white terrorists, saved the world, and met a beautiful woman by the way.
The routine is very traditional,
The style is unique.
Fortunately, the jittering shots in this movie are technical sexual jitters. Unlike the dizzy jitters of The Blair Witch, 2D movies don't look dizzy.
Ronan had seen Kingsman several times in post-production, but it looked very different on the big screen than in the pull room.
Probably because I naturally like this kind of purely entertaining movies, and watching them on the big screen can mobilize my hormones even more.
Of course, there are almost no big scenes in the film, no skydiving training, no killing of hundreds of people, and no headshot fireworks.
Then there is Princess Madeleine of Sweden, who is still a young girl, and Ronan is not shameless enough to insinuate minors, the beauty can just find the heir of the so-called multinational group.
At the end of the film screening, there was no applause or scolding, just like most movies, the audience's entertainment is over, they pack up and leave to continue their daily life.
While the lights were on, Ronan took a quick look. As expected, most of the 20 or so spectators were ethnic minorities, and there were more than 15 by visual inspection.
After leaving the theater, someone was doing on-site survey of the theater and was asking a black audience.
I think I can play b, the action scenes are great! said the black man, It would be great if there were more roles for black characters.
When Ronan passed by, the man wanted to stop him, but Ronan waved his hand and walked away.
Later, Ronan went to another theater near the minority community, and the attendance rate of this theater was obviously higher than the previous one.
After seeing three theaters in a row, Ronan had the most intuitive feeling that the movie Kingsman is unlikely to hit the box office, but it won't hit the street.
Early on Saturday morning, relevant statistical data was sent to the Embassy Films and also to Ronan. The film grossed $1.45 million in 1,500 theaters on its opening day.
The box office of a single hall is close to 1,000 US dollars, which is slightly better than Ronan expected.
Moreover, the single-day box office on Saturday also rose a lot, winning 1.55 million US dollars.
After three days of its first weekend, Kingsman earned $4.1 million in North America.
The box office of a single hall is less than 3,000 US dollars, and it is impossible to increase the number of theaters.
In the Los Angeles branch of Emperor Entertainment, Miller looked at Thomas opposite and said, We are supporting Embassy Pictures this time, but the box office of this film is mediocre. It is definitely necessary to reduce the number of screening theaters and screening rates.
Thomas said: Embassy Pictures is very satisfied to maintain the current number of theaters.
The box office of the film is not strong, and he has no confidence in his words, and the embassy film industry is not a big company, everything depends on the market.
Miller is very good at talking: We had a successful cooperation on The Blair Witch, so I personally am willing to bear part of the pressure for your company to let Kingsman Agent maintain the current screening scale.
Thank you. Thomas knew that this was all false, but he quickly said, Thank you, Mr. Miller, for your support.
Miller continued to sell free favors: Because of the poor box office of this Kingsman, the head office once wanted to reduce the number of theaters for your other film Death Comes, and I tried my best. Fight for Death Comes to ensure that the situation has not changed.
Thomas said with a smile: Mr. Miller's friendship, the embassy film industry will always remember it. He took out an invitation letter and handed it over: Embassy film industry welcomes Mr. Miller to attend the premiere of Death Comes .”
Miller accepted the invitation and said, As time permits, I will go.
I won't disturb Mr. Miller's work. Thomas said goodbye and left.
Opening the invitation letter, Miller looked at it, and his eyes finally fell on the signer of the invitation letter. It was a name he had heard many times but had never met in person—Ronan Anderson.
Since the success of The Blair Witch, news of this person has been circulating in several theater companies in North America. As for the content, it is nothing more than how amazing Ronan Anderson is. Two consecutive movies with low investment have been a big success , especially The Blair Witch.
According to media publicity and many people's perceptions, the key to the success of The Blair Witch is the director and producer Daniel Malik, but those who deal directly with the distribution company know that formulating a series of miraculous styles The person who operated Sao was Ronan Anderson.
For a while, many people were saying that Ronan Anderson was a god.
Having been in the film industry for many years, Miller has never believed in the saying of a god-man, and there is no so-called god-man in the film industry. No matter how successful a producer is, there will be a day of failure.
After only two successful films, Ronan Anderson suffered a failure.
Miller began to be a little worried about Death Comes. Once successful producers go downhill, they often fail one after another. If this horror film produced by Ronan Anderson is like Kingsman, Emperor Entertainment invested so much Is multiple resources appropriate?
If the box office of Death Comes is not good in the first week after its release, it is necessary to quickly reduce its screening space.
The box office of Kingsman Agent was 4.1 million US dollars in the first week, and it didn't even make it into the top five of the North American box office rankings that week.
As I said, he won't have good luck if he leaves us.
In an office at DreamWorks headquarters, Daniel Malik put down his newspaper and said to Eideardo Sanziz, who revised the script: Kingsman's public cost is $25 million, even if Ronan Anderson is more shameless. Even if it is reported, there will be a cost of 20 million U.S. dollars, right? In addition to the funds invested in promotional marketing and distribution, the box office of this film's first weekend of 4.1 million U.S. dollars is definitely a disastrous failure!
Although Eideardo Sanziz is the second director of The Blair Witch, he doesn't know much about Hollywood and asked, Will the box office skyrocket in the future?
Daniel Malik looked like an expert in the film market: No! Absolutely not! A commercial film like this with a large-scale opening, the box office will only go down all the way!
He picked up the newspaper and pointed at it: Have you seen it? Cinema predicts that the North American box office of this film will be around 10 million US dollars!
The box office should pay a lot, right? Eideardo Sanzizi asked.
Daniel McLeary showed off what he had just learned: It failed at the box office in North America, and it will be even worse overseas. It is estimated that Ronan Anderson can get back 10 million US dollars for this film.
Eideardo Sanzizi couldn't help laughing: Pay him to death!
Daniel Malik also laughed happily: This film has lost more than 10 million US dollars. Two weeks later, Ronan Anderson will have a Death Comes, and that film will cost more than 10 million US dollars. Ronan - Anderson is not far from bankruptcy!
Eideardo Sanziz nodded again and again: Will that bastard Ronan Anderson cry?
Daniel Malik is in a great mood: I really want to see what his expression is now!
At the same time, Ronan met Paul Greengrass and his agent Dean in the reception room of the Embassy Pictures.
