Chapter 454 How many heroes were killed

The movie “The Rise of the Lich King” was released at the same time in most of the world’s film markets. Except for Japan and other countries that have to adopt different release times because of their different film introduction strategies, audiences in most places can enter the cinema at the same time to watch the film.

The box office came out soon in the first weekend.

In mainland China, “The Lich King” scored 1.1 billion yuan in the first weekend. On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, it averaged almost 400 million yuan a day.

You know, this is not the Spring Festival stall that box office sellers call very powerful!

Although the summer schedule is good, relatively speaking, this schedule does not add much to the film’s performance.

To achieve such results, there is no doubt that the quality of “The Lich King” itself occupies a decisive factor.

Then, in the second week of screening, “The Lich King” still scored one billion yuan at the box office. Although the box office on weekends has declined slightly compared to the first weekend, the degree of decline is not large. Coupled with the supplement of the box office brought by a few working days, the results of the second week of the film’s screenings are better than those of the first weekend. Said that it did not drop too much!

The result of 1.1 billion on two Tuesdays is quite good. Based on people’s past experience with the domestic film market, it is conservatively estimated that the box office of this film is 3 billion or even 3.5 billion. It should be stable and able to win. Even if the follow-up trend is better, it might be even better. Can hit the four billion mark.

However, despite all thinking so, by the third and fourth weeks, most people found that their estimates of the movie were still too conservative.

While “The Lich King” got an excellent opening box office result, the reputation of the film is also very stable. On various evaluation platforms, its word-of-mouth always occupies the topmost position, even in Douban, which has the most demanding film reviews, with a stable 9.0 rating, that is only a magical film.

Thanks to the huge word-of-mouth effect, a large number of non-fans also entered the cinema to watch the movie.

This is also due to the fact that after the excellent opening results of “The Lich King”, the box office, which should have fallen sharply, has become very stable, not falling much, and even the attendance rate has maintained a fairly good level.

In the third week, “The Lich King” still got 800 million at the box office; in the fourth week, 700 million.

This small drop has surprised many people.

After four weeks, the total domestic box office of “The Lich King” has reached 3.6 billion.

But this is not the most terrifying. The terrifying thing is that “The Lich King” is estimated to be released for another two months. If this posture continues, the subsequent decline will maintain this momentum… Maybe, this is another similar movie. A super hot work in the “De Marcia” series!

Many domestic film companies feel desperate about this.

At the beginning of the summer vacation, Dimension Entertainment launched the LOL series of movies, “Rune Wars”, although they performed well, but they did not have the strength of a dominant level. There were two other movies with the same grade of performance. And they are all domestic films. Even “Rune War” itself has not been able to win the box office championship of this period, but only won a weekly championship in the first week of its release.

Although “Rune Wars” performed well, it failed to continue the dominant performance, which in itself was like a signal to the outside world: Dimension Entertainment is not invincible. You can make a good film and fight against them. As long as the quality of the work is good, we are not afraid of winning.

But “The Rise of the Lich King” turned out to suppress all the noisy sounds in the previous movie circles.

Dimension Entertainment used its absolutely powerful strength to tell everyone: Your father is still your father.

In the fifth week of the screening of “The Lich King”, the box office score was still 500 million; in the sixth week, 300 million; the seventh and Monday was 90 million; in the eighth week, it still did not fall below 100 million, and it was still early ；

So far, the total box office of “Rise of the Lich King” has come to 4.7 billion yuan.

Almost all the people who estimated the movie beforehand were slapped in the face.

Break the four billion mark? It’s very simple. Five billion is something that even dare to think again.

In other words, in the next month or even longer when “The Lich King” will be screened, it is almost inevitable that this movie will break through five billion.

However, six billion is probably out of play, and it is estimated that it may not be able to reach the level of “Wolf Warrior 2”.

But despite this, “The Lich King” still makes the entire movie market tremble.

At the same time, the performance of this movie in overseas markets is also amazing!

North America’s first week of box office directly won US$280 million, and the first week of airborne North America’s box office champion was also the highest box office record for the first week of the year. In the future, there may be several movies that hopefully break this record, one of which is Marvel’s latest Avengers work.

But there is only hope.

If the performance of those films is a little worse, maybe “The Lich King” will be able to hold the highest first weekend box office record in North America this year.

It seems that in the past history, there is really no non-local work that can win the annual box office championship in the North American market.

Its follow-up performance in the North American market is also quite outstanding.

When its total box office score in Mainland China broke through 5 billion, it was almost at the time of its release in North America. The film’s window in theaters in North America was shorter than that in China. Very normal phenomenon.

At this time, its North American gross box office also came to 720 million US dollars North America, China Mainland, “The Lich King” was a big hit in the two major ticket warehouses in the world. Wins, a total of more than 1.5 billion US dollars in the box office.

Adding to the box office of other film markets around the world, the total box office of “The Lich King” came to $2.2 billion.

This result has surpassed the results of “Avengers 3” and “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.”

“The Lich King” directly airborne the third place in the global film history box office record!

“Dragon Blood” and “Glory” two works of Dimension Entertainment themselves, were brutally suppressed by “The Lich King” and were squeezed out of the top five in the box office of film history.

Undoubtedly, after the word ‘Warcraft’ swept the entire world’s game market more than a decade ago, this time, it has dominated the entire world’s movie market again! A Frostmourne, I don’t know how many heroes have been cut down.

The slight difference is that it used to be rampant in the game industry, relying on the excellent production of the American company Blizzard; now, its strength is surging from the hands of the Chinese company Dimension Entertainment!
