Director’s Legend

On the last day of the May Day holiday in 2013, that is, on May 1st, "Iron Man 3" came to the film market in mainland China. It swept the midnight shows in one fell swoop, with 2,400 screenings and a box office of 13.5 million, and nearly 300,000 moviegoers, surpassing the historical record of 12 million box office in mainland China created by "Transformers 3".

According to the data of Mtime.com, "Iron Man 3" occupies 4108% of the average daily schedule of the top-15 cities in the country, but even so, it is still difficult to find a ticket for "Iron Man 3" in major movie theaters across the country. . Just take the Golden Harvest Studios on Jiaozi Road in Shancheng as an example. The 9 screening halls for the film "Iron Man 3" were full. At 12:30, there were still a large number of audiences queuing up to buy tickets. The enthusiasm for watching the movie has not disappeared.

As Shao Shuaijun is likely to be the only movie in 2013, Mtime.com also sent a huge lineup of interviews to various movie theaters to investigate the viewing situation and word-of-mouth of "Iron Man 3".

"The visuals are very powerful."

"The story is very strong."

"3 The effect exceeded expectations."

"The sound and special effects are much better than the previous two films."

Basically, audiences who have watched the movie received constant praise in interviews. Even the audience praised: "Iron Man 3 can be regarded as the most visually enjoyable movie in 2013 so far."

At the same time, about 70% of the audience randomly interviewed said that they would definitely watch it again if they had the opportunity, and 90% of the movie fans said they would give it to their friends and colleagues around them. The audience's enthusiasm for watching movies is unstoppable, and it is getting stronger and stronger. [

The next day, the opening day ended, and "Iron Man 3" garnered 1.4 billion yuan in the box office amidst all the attention, setting five box office records in mainland movie history.

Break through 100 million at the fastest. Same as "Transformers 3", it broke 100 million yuan in one day, but the box office was higher; the midnight show record, 13.5 million yuan, broke "Transformers 3" 12 million yuan; the first-day box office record, 1.4 billion yuan, broke "Transformers 3" 1.1 billion yuan ; On Wednesday, the opening record broke the 39 million yuan of "Lost in Thailand"; the single-day box office record broke the 125.6 billion yuan of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons".

Not yet released in North America. In just a few days overseas, 28.9 billion US dollars have been madly won.

Experts originally predicted that "Iron Man 3" would surpass the previous two films and reach a height of 700 million or 800 million US dollars, but now, no one doubts it. "Iron Man 3" can't break the $1 billion mark. Everyone aligns the final box office of "Iron Man 3" with the $16.7 billion of "The Avengers".

Of course, it is difficult to reach the height of the "Women's" Federation. The best result so far is to surpass the US$132.8 billion of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 2)".

"Since "Iron Man" fired the first shot of the Marvel Cinematic Universe plan, this playboy wearing iron armor and playing cards without routines has carried all the expectations of Marvel Comics. In the first part, Jon Favreau It can be described as an amazing start, making Iron Man popular all over the world. After the second part was flat and flat, Shao Shuaijun finally made Iron Man coquettish again in "The Avengers", and now the third part , Iron Man seems to have exploded with unprecedented crazy charm, and dedicated a start that surpassed people's expectations. A good director. With a good actor, there is a wonderful chemical reaction..."

The cover characters of this issue of "Entertainment Weekly" are two people, one is Robert Downey Jr. holding the Iron Man helmet, and the other is Shao Shuaijun with his arms crossed on the set.

There is also an interview with Shao Shuaijun in the content. "The Legend of the White Snake: The Legend of the Green Snake" has already started to be promoted. As the first work of the four major magic series, Shao Shuaijun rarely participated in the promotion. Trailer release.

at the press conference. I took the time to accept an interview with "Entertainment Weekly", and answered the reporter's original intention of creation.

"I participated in the pre-creation of "Iron Man 3". At that time, we made an overall plan for the second duo of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but there was no very detailed idea. It was not until I temporarily took over the filming work of the film. I didn't think about it. shoot."

"Downey and Gwyneth, also want a different Iron Man, I asked myself. Is the armor made Iron Man, or Iron Man made the armor, Tony Stark because he put on a suit of armor , did he become a superhero, and would someone else be a hero if he wore it? If it wasn’t because of the armor, then what was it that made him Iron Man?”

"With this kind of thinking, I started to make movies. I hope to give Iron Man a process of self-recognition, and I also hope to give the audience a process of recognizing Iron Man."

Then the reporter asked Shao Shuaijun what he thought "Iron Man 3" would be at the final box office. Shao Shuaijun didn't know, and replied with a smile: "I hope it can exceed 800 million US dollars. Now it seems that there is a chance. As for the final amount, I am not very concerned." .As I said before, I finished the film and the audience confirmed it, and everything is enough.”

Shao Shuaijun felt that it was enough, but the box office in various places did not think it was enough. Good news came one by one, and the momentum of watching the premiere was not worse than that of "The Avengers". Many regions have broken the record set by the Women's Federation. However, there are also some dissatisfaction. In the Japanese market where it was released simultaneously, "Iron Man" failed to win the box office championship.

Last week's champion was the cartoon "Detective Conan 2013: The Detective of the Far Sea", pressing "Iron Man 3" to achieve consecutive championships. Although in terms of word-of-mouth, "Iron Man 3" conquered Japanese audiences with its excellent entertainment attributes. The audience who accepted the first-day satisfaction survey of "P Film Life" gave this film a score of 911, ranking first among all new films, and Yahoo Japan also gave this film a high score of 4 points. [

It's a pity that in this big animation country, it is really difficult for American manga to invade. Superheroes have gimmicks and scenes, and 3 games are full of flowers, but they still can't beat Japan's own 2 manga. Of course, there are difficulties. After all, Japan is still the third largest ticket holder in the world. In the future, Marvel Comics will plan more plans to break into Japan and fall to Japan.

The "Women's" Federation and Steel 3 have established a good reputation and changed their minds to the tastes of Japanese audiences. Not hopeless.

After the overwhelming momentum around the world, on May 3, "Iron Man 3" finally landed in the United States, the main battlefield. Midnight Show grossed US$15.6 million, and it took in US$68.1 million at the box office on the opening day, and three days after the weekend. It grossed $175.3 million over the weekend.

This score is lower than that of "The Avengers", but it still beats the US$169.1 million of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 2)", becoming the second highest score in the opening week of North American film history. The average score of a single hall is 41,218 US dollars, which is also lower than that of the "Women" Federation, but higher than Ha Qixia, ranking second among large-scale release films. And Saturday and Sunday. They are all second only to the "Women's" Federation, and other statistics are also among the top few in North American film history.

"Shao used "The Avengers" to refresh the history of North American film history, which is hard to come by. Maybe it is because everyone is afraid that everyone will lose the motivation to pursue, and now he uses "Iron Man 3" to give all movies a catch-up goal. When will it be surpassed? "Iron Man 3" box office, you have a chance to attack "The Avengers." - Hollywood Entertainment Reporter.

At this time, the mainland's box office for the week will also be released immediately. "Iron Man 3" lived up to expectations with RMB 498.65 million, breaking the first-week record of RMB 467.3 million for the re-release of "Titanic" 3, and once again handed over the first-week champion to Shao Shuaijun.

The 422.9 million yuan in the first week of "Old Boy" ended up in the hands of the 3rd re-screening of "Titanic", a 3rd re-screening of a shipwreck film from the last century, which occupied the first-week box office record for more than three years. Saying this is a very silly result.

Fortunately, there is no need to worry about this problem now.

so far. Two weeks later, "Iron Man 3" earned $72.5 billion worldwide.

In the third week, "Iron Man 3" won the championship in North America with US$80.56 million, and won three consecutive championships overseas, attracting US$98 million. So far, the global US$946.8 billion is not far from the 1 billion mark.

"Steel 3's box office is very good, and it's not worth 800 million US dollars to come out." Netizen sujzong has since posted a prediction post on Du Niang last time, which has sparked box office controversy. Now I have to come out and post again.

"Over 800 million US dollars means it's a good movie? It can only be said that you know it when you are young!" Netizen wblyu gave a smiley face.

"More than 800 million US dollars can't represent it. I can only say that you let me see your high-end and high-grade upstairs." Netizen ethn_mo said.

"I watched the mx-3 version. It's so good. When Tony puts on and takes off his armor. It's so cool. I hope it can reach a box office of 1.4 billion US dollars." Netizen smf82212943 praised it.

"The plot is more in-depth than the previous two. However, the more you watch it, the more it looks like the finale? Don't make the finale!" Netizen Pocket Tiger said worriedly.

"The contract between Downey and Gwyneth seems to be expiring. Downey signed a total of six movies with Marvel, three Iron Man, two Avengers, and the previous Hulk soy sauce, basically in the After the "Women's Federation 2", there will be no more performances." The monk, who is not a "lustful" netizen, explained.

"Then can't the contract be renewed?" Netizens thought it was easy to ask.

"Renewals are not signed casually. What are Robert Downey Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow worth now? They can't be signed without tens of millions of dollars, and the cost will increase in the future. Didn't the boss of Marvel say it last time, I hope Make Iron Man into a series like 007, where people can be replaced at any time. After all, anyone can be Iron Man as long as they put on the armor. Didn’t the children in "Iron Man 3" get funding from Tony, maybe From now on, he will be the new Iron Man." Netizen Kai Shiqingtian analyzed.

Obviously, this building is crooked again...

19 days after its release, "Iron Man 3" received good news and finally broke through the $1 billion mark, second only to "The Avengers" and became the second fastest to break $1 billion. It is a little regrettable that, unlike the strong follow-up box office of "The Avengers", the follow-up gold-absorbing ability of "Iron Man 3" has declined somewhat quickly.

Experts have given a box office curve, and it is expected that the final box office of "Iron Man 3" should be around 13.5 billion U.S. dollars, and it can hold hands with "The Avengers", occupying the third and fourth places in global film history. As for whether such data can be achieved, "Iron Man 3" still has a long way to go at the box office.

However, Shao Shuaijun now has time to pay attention to "Iron Man 3". Directed by Chen Jiashang and supervised by Shao Shuaijun, "Legend of the White Snake: Legend of the Green Snake" had its world premiere on May 21 at the Golden Harvest B Flagship Cinema in Beijing.
