Box-office preview: 'Valentine's Day' to dominate holiday frame
by Nicole Sperling
Categories: Box Office, Movie Biz, News
In honor of both Valentine’s Day and the President’s Day three-day weekend,
Hollywood has programmed three films for three distinct audiences. But let’s
be clear: Valentine’s Day from veteran director Garry Marshall is driving
the pack and should do at least $50 million for the four-day frame. If it’s
successful, which it’s destined to be, expect to see a whole lot more movies
where A-list actors work in a large ensemble cast for only a few days for
reduced pay. It’s one easy way to earn a living.
為了慶祝情人節與之後的總統節(美國國父華盛頓的冥誕)假期
好萊塢安排了三部針對不同族群設計的電影
不過情勢卻很明顯:資深導演蓋瑞馬歇爾的情人節快樂
將會成為龍頭,而且在這4天週末至少賺進5千萬美金
假如本片成功(而且應該要成功)的話,我們將會看到更多A咖明星降低片酬
聚集幾天的電影了,這真是一個簡單的賺錢方式啊!
Competing for those holiday box-office dollars this weekend is Universal’s
R-rated horror film The Wolfman with Benicio Del Toro, Anthony Hopkins, and
Emily Blunt. The film has had a bit of a troubled past so it will be
interesting to see if that keeps audiences from checking out Del Toro going
lycan. For kids, Fox is trying to capitalize on the Harry Potter franchise,
by partnering The Sorcerer’s Stone director Christopher Columbus with
another popular book series: Percy Jackson and the Olympians. With three big
titles hitting the marketplace, expect this frame to be a big one at the box
office. Read on for my four-day predictions.
這個假期的其他競爭者還包括環球的R級恐怖片"狼嚎再起"
卡司有班尼西歐戴托洛、安東尼霍普金斯與艾蜜莉布朗,本片在製作途中曾經
遇上麻煩,所以我們可以觀察這是否會阻止觀眾欣賞戴托洛變身狼人的過程
針對小孩們,福斯則是借助哈利波特的力量,聘請"神秘的魔法石"導演克里斯哥倫布
執掌另一部受歡迎的小說系列:波西傑克森
隨著三部大片同時進入市場,本週將會是一個票房大週末,以下是4天預測
1. Valentine’s Day: $50 million
Warner Bros. spent only $14.5 million on the cast of this film. That’s
pretty impressive considering names like Julia Roberts, Jamie Foxx, Bradley
Cooper, Taylor Lautner ,and Jennifer Garner don the marquee. And because they
made it multi-generational: Shirley Maclaine and Hector Elizondo have
relationship issues as much as Lautner and Taylor Swift do, the audience
range on the film should run from teenage to AARP.
1.情人節快樂:5千萬美金
華納兄弟只用了不到1千5百萬,就招集到這些大卡司,這真的很神奇,因為這些大牌
包括茱莉亞羅伯茲、傑米福克斯、布萊德利古伯、泰勒洛特與珍尼佛嘉納
而且還跨代:莎莉麥克林/海多伊利桑托的老夫妻與泰勒洛特/泰勒絲的高校情侶檔
都有感情上的問題,所以本片的觀眾群從國中生到AARP的老人都有
2. The Wolfman: $35 million
Reviews have not been kind to this horror flick. But I don’t think it’s
enough to stop audiences from showing up to this Victorian-era thriller. The
film should get beyond the $30 million mark for the four days on its R-rating
alone. How it fares over the coming weeks will likely be a bigger challenge.
2.狼嚎再起:3千5百萬美金
影評對這部恐怖片的評價並不友善,但我想這並不會阻止觀眾買票觀賞
這部故事發生在維多利亞時代的驚悚片
這部唯一被列為R級的新片,將可以在這4天進帳超過3千萬
然而,隔週的走勢卻將是本片更大的挑戰
3. Percy Jackson and The Olympians: The Lightning Thief: $30 million
An engaging story based on the popular book series by Rick Riordan, Percy has
a lot going for it. From the cute Logan Lerman in the lead to a cast of Greek
Gods that include Uma Thurman, Pierce Brosnan, Rosario Dawson, and Steve
Coogan, the filmmakers seemed to have fun putting this film together. And
with the dearth of family product in the marketplace, it’s likely to fare
well with audiences. And reviews overall have been solid. There just seems to
be missing any real excitement considering all this began as a beloved book.
3.波西傑克森:神火之賊:3千萬美金
這部根據瑞克瑞爾丹暢銷書改編的新片有很多利多:
首先:從可愛的羅根勒曼,到一群大牌飾演的希臘眾神
導演看起來也的確把這些組合發揮得很有趣
其次,由於市面上缺乏家庭電影,本片將可以吃得開
加上目前影評還算穩健,本片唯一缺乏的只有真正的刺激場面,考量到他畢竟是根據
暢銷書改編的..
4. Avatar: $22 million
Avatar’s four-day should match something close to it’s three-day last
weekend as it holds on to those 3-D screens as long as it can.
4.阿凡達:2千2百萬美金
阿片靠著3D放映廳的力量,本週的四天收入將會與上週末3天成績相近
5. Dear John: $15 milion
This movie may have dethroned Avatar last weekend but that distinction isn’t
going to get it very far. The film is going to be crushed this frame by the
Valentine’s Day juggernaut. If it drops 50% it should consider itself lucky.
5.最後一封情書:1千5百萬
本片曾經將阿凡達擠出冠軍寶座,可惜稱霸的日子並不長久
最片本週將會由於情人節快樂的入侵排名快速滑落,如果他"只有"下跌50%就算幸運了
