章 335: Strong Response
In the first week after the release of "The Three-Body Problem 2," the box office performance was not particularly good.
Although it has the accumulation of the first movie and a large number of fans, the first-week box office result of this movie still only reached $113 million.
This number, let alone compared to Spider-Man's $150 million, even compared to Shrek 3's $120 million, shows a considerable gap.
However, after the movie's first week, the box office figures showed an incredible reverse amplitude, which is incredible.
Generally speaking, a movie must have excellent reviews to achieve reverse or zero decline.
Good reviews and commercial movies are inherently opposite.
In order to make money, commercial movies should not have too many things that make people feel entangled and uncomfortable, and they should not depict too many dark things.
Even conspiracies should be simple and clear to prevent the audience from understanding them.
This approach makes commercial blockbusters exciting but lacks flavor, and a box office drop in the second week is inevitable.
On the contrary, there are quite a few literary and artistic films that have been broadcast in a small area and have achieved reverse declines at the box office.
However, this movie obviously breaks the rules. The magnificent scenes, stunning cosmic scenes, and future scenes in the movie can all be said to be extremely attractive to the audience.
Technological innovation, something that was originally highly questionable, has become the biggest source of attracting movie fans after being proven successful.
Commercial movies largely make money by relying on images rarely seen in ordinary times. The scenes in this movie are all extremely shocking, so it is naturally not difficult to gain fans.
During the first week, people still have some questions about this movie, but after these questions are over, this movie will immediately attract a huge audience.
"This is the best movie this year, absolutely unparalleled."
Even the media, at this time, gave the same evaluation. The scenes in the movie conquered the audience, and when the media witnessed the application of film technology and shooting techniques, they could not help but marvel at the standard of this movie.
Of course, the movie's novel shooting techniques and magnificent scenes are certainly one aspect that makes money. Still, on the other hand, the ability of film to attract audiences is also inseparable from actors and plots.
The movie caused a huge sensation. It also showed in the actors.
There are many actors in this movie, and the quality can be said to be very high. After the movie was aired, people also gave a lot of praise to the actors in the film.
The Secretary-General of the United Nations, played by Meryl Streep, has a statesman's skill and determination in times of human crisis.
The graceful and affectionate character of Hines, played by Ralph Fiennes, brings the dark side to the forefront — the image of a scientist that is well combined with love.
The charming idealism and evil spirit of the Latin revolutionary leader, Rey Diaz, played well by Javier Bardem.
The image of a tough guy once again performed by Martin Sheen on the screen and the tough guy's impression after the image collapsed also brought a great response from the audience.
If the end of the world really comes, which of these people is more trustworthy? Which of these characters is smarter? Who is better and whose policy is more feasible has also become a question for people to discuss.
It can be said that several of the main characters all expressed their own personalities, demeanors, and characteristics. When facing the end of the world, the actors vividly demonstrated their different styles of doing things and became the focus of discussion among the audience.
Of course, people naturally discussed some minor actors as well.
For example, people also discuss who is more beautiful: Gal Gadot, who plays the sociologist's wife character, and Jessica Alba, who plays the robot waiter who tries to kill him in the future.
It can be said that these actors are also a factor that significantly boosts the movie's box office.
Moreover, not only did the performance of these people significantly boost the box office, but they also received a lot of praise when they performed in the movie.
When the movie was released, no one expected these actors to give particularly exciting performances in the movie: commercial movies are commercial movies, after all, and actors in commercial movies generally do not attach much importance to acting.
After all, the image in commercial movies is relatively fixed and stereotyped; it is not difficult to divide good and evil, but it is difficult to show acting skills in such a movie.
However, it turns out that their images are not stereotyped in the movie. Although each of these people does not have many roles, they have obvious changes before and after.
In their short roles, they fully reflect their lofty ambitions as politicians, their ruthless tactics, and their disguised image in public.
Furthermore, Rey Diaz has his love for the country, and Hines has his love for his wife. These feelings also appear in their characters and can be expressed through one or two details, making the audience feel a greater aftertaste.
For a good movie, the performance of the actors is always very important. As a movie fan, when you hear about some movies starring good actors, you will be curious in your heart. You will naturally want to watch it when you hear that the actors have performed well.
Science fiction movies are not very attractive to some people who prefer orthodox stories, but this movie still attracted many audiences of different ages thanks to these actors.
While it brought good profits to the movie, it also brought good profits to the actors. After the movie, the reputations of these actors have also been hotly debated.
Among these people, if you want to say who has benefited the most, it is Robert Downey Jr.
Before this movie was released, he was labeled a drug addict, a prodigal, a bastard, and a playboy. Even the best comments are a has-been star.
However, after this movie was released, everything changed.
His role is quite a bit like a genuine performance in the movie. A dissolute life, an unruly temperament, outstanding talent, and a somewhat chic demeanor are what the sociologist in the movie has and what people think of Robert Downey Jr. as well.
Therefore, after the movie was released, people didn't praise his acting skills too much, but they praised him more.
In a sense, he almost became the embodiment of the character in the story. And this character has become the most popular character this year. Naturally, it attracted everyone's attention at once.
"Don't tell me you didn't expect it. Even at the beginning, I didn't expect to become a super blockbuster's protagonist. When I received the call, my first reaction was, wow, I quit taking drugs. It's been a long time; why am I suddenly hallucinating?" He joked casually, making everyone laugh.
Downey took the opportunity to glance around the entire studio, looking at the adoring eyes of those who regarded him as a star. In his own heart, he also had mixed feelings.
In this script, the reason why the role of the sociologist is attractive has a lot to do with his image - compared to the scheming politicians, he still shows more of the confusion of an ordinary person.
He thinks and does things like an ordinary person. When suddenly given the opportunity, he just plays around. His struggle is for his wife and daughter.
People who are drunk without any pressure are called bastards, but if they can still enjoy life calmly when the pressure is unprecedentedly strong, that is a bit admirable.
The same lifestyle has different effects due to different interpretations. The image of this sociologist is obviously very influential.
Under the movie's influence, Downey, who played this role, has been recognized again by people for his free and uninhibited style, chic demeanor, and outstanding talent.
A good character image can completely shape the image of an actor. The huge influence of this movie has changed his image very well.
Now, his image of a prodigal son and the image of his characters saving the earth somewhat overlap, and this overlap has made him established in people's hearts as a smart, brave, and talented person who is good at thinking — the image of talented and coupled with the prodigal son's return, this kind of image promotion actually allowed him to get out of his previous predicament and become a star again.
His publicity team did not forget to take the opportunity to promote him at this time - for male movie stars, the prodigal son returns is a very good promotional slogan, especially after Downey played such a good role. People's perception of him has changed greatly.
In Levi's memory, it wasn't until he played Iron Man that he finally turned around, and his destiny changed dramatically. Now, he has a better future early.
He was once a prodigal son, but overnight, after a movie was released, he returned to the top of Hollywood. People often say that life is like a play, but Downey never expected that his own life would be so dramatic.
Of course, having experienced ups and downs, he especially knows how to cherish the status quo. The current situation is too precious for him. For the sake of his future, he also changed his previous lifestyle and worked hard to promote it.
"Actually, when I saw the script, I hesitated. Such a playboy character is almost catching up with me in the past few years. If I played such a character, my image might really be completely ruined. But then I thought, this is a play directed by Levi; it can't be too bad - and I took it. Thinking about it now, I am so lucky."
Since it is a show, he doesn't mind self-depreciation. Anyway, people have already established his image in the past few years. If he expressed a few more times, people may think he is repentant.
Moreover, this way, he can also boast about the people he worked with, so why not?
Moreover, what he said is correct, and apart from the special effects and actors, the plot is naturally the most attractive to the audience.
This aspect is also the reason why the movie is so popular.
