"Sleepless in Seattle" snatched the championship for two weeks in the strong summer file, which also became the biggest news in this year's summer file, and in terms of the upset of this news, even "Jurassic Park" is dwarfed.

What's even more terrifying is that "Sleepless in Seattle" in the 'confrontation' with its direct rival "Sugar-Coated Trap", except for the first week of the narrow loss to Sidney "Wave" Lack and Tom Cruise's "fine" work, the next three weeks are dead on the opponent's position, which is too strong.

And the performance of "Sleepless in Seattle" is clearly not over, and the 21% drop in the following week allowed the film to get $9 million over the weekend, just behind the new release of "Chasing the Rising Sun" this week, and occupying the second place in the North American weekend box office charts in the last week of July.

The follow-up table xiàn finally returned to normal "Line of Fire Sniper" ranked third, and "Sugar-coated Trap" also tended to stabilize dìng, surpassing "Jurassic Park" and continuing to rank fourth. It can be said that the most eye-catching thing on this week's box office list is "Sleepless in Seattle", and although "Chasing the Murderer" won the championship, the winning result of 15 million is really unbeatable, and it is not even as good as the box office number of "Sleepless in Seattle" in the third week of release.

This also makes "Sleepless in Seattle" still far ahead on the hot list of media topics.

In the first week of August, "Sleepless in Seattle" ushered in the second topic collision, and it was revealed that Hugo was removed from the cast list because of his late audition.

In fact, strictly speaking, this collision does not have any significance, because "Sleepless in Seattle" has entered its seventh week of release, which does not have any possibility of head-to-head competition with "The Outlaw", which premiered this week. But the gossip of journalists is still inevitably haunted again.

Hugo has successively become the seed player on the list of big actors such as "Sugar-Coated Trap" and "The End of the World", and originally thought that Hugo would use such a commercial blockbuster to once again hit the breakthrough that he could not complete by relying on "Fatal Moment", but surprisingly, Hugo not only failed to become the actor of these works, but also broke out the scandal after the Golden Globe incident, and as a result, he added "Sleepless in Seattle", a work that was not favored by everyone, which made people feel embarrassed.

However, almost everyone thought that Hugo's super popularity accumulated by relying on "smelling the fragrance and knowing the 'woman'" and "Yihai Xiongfeng" was about to become a bubble, but "Sleepless in Seattle" made a beautiful turnaround, first scaring "Jurassic Park" into a cold sweat, and then capturing the "sugar-coated trap", which became the second work of Hugo's actor career with a box office of over 100 million, which is indeed once again verified the famous saying "This is Hollywood", miracles are everywhere.

Therefore, people will naturally look forward to the results of "Outlaw World", and they are also curious about what kind of answer "Seattle Sleepless Night" can "hand in" in the face of the impact of "Outlaw World".

As a result, "The End of the World" won the North American weekend box office champion this week with $23 million without any suspense, while "Sleepless in Seattle" once again 'delivered' an ultra-low drop of 24 percent, winning $6.8 million on the weekend, ranking third on the list after "Chasing the Murderer of the Rising Sun".

I have to say that the box office decline of "Sleepless in Seattle" has repeatedly created surprises, and in the face of such a huge impact as "The End of the World", it still maintains its strong 'firmness', allowing people to see the huge potential of this work at the box office, and now the cumulative box office has reached $142 million in seven weeks of release, and the historical record of "Pretty Woman" seems to be close at hand.

Regardless of the final box office numbers of "Sugar-Coated Trap" and "The End of the World", the low-budget romance movie "Sleepless in Seattle" has 'delivered' a perfect number of answers Following "The Heroes of the Righteous Sea", Hugo relied on the "color" of "Sleepless in Seattle" and officially entered the first line.

It is particularly worth mentioning that Hugo's salary for starring in "Sleepless in Seattle" is cash plus dividends, and now the film has achieved box office success, which also means that Hugo's salary is likely to exceed 8 million US dollars, which is the decisive 'sex' factor for Hugo to hang the label of "first-line actor".

"Sleepless in Seattle" is still in theaters, and it has already been rumored that Para 'Mon' Pictures is preparing to make a large-scale Zuò movie, and is willing to offer a salary of 8 million US dollars to invite Hugo to star. When "Yihai Xiongfeng" was released, it was just a "rumor", but now a production company has made such an invitation, and for Hugo's actor career, the real breakthrough was suddenly completed

However, Joseph is obviously not in a hurry to get a new job for Hugo, because the performance of "Sleepless in Seattle" is not over yet, and the record of "Pretty Girl" in a romantic comedy of $178 million is still waiting to be surpassed by "Sleepless in Seattle".

"Sleepless in Seattle" did not disappoint the expecting reporters, with a drop of 15 percent in the second week of August, a 16 percent drop in the third week, and an 18 percent drop in the fourth week, and by the end of August, the cumulative box office of the film had reached $160 million.

Although with the advancement of time, the speed of box office accumulation will definitely become slower and slower, but after entering September, the box office of "Sleepless in Seattle" actually appeared for two consecutive weeks, increasing by 35 percentage points and 15 percentage points respectively, and then 'delivered' a 10% decline in the third week of September, which also made the cumulative box office of the movie quickly rise to 177 million US dollars, and the historical record of "Pretty Woman" is within reach

Sure enough, in the fourth week of September, the historical moment officially arrived, and "Sleepless in Seattle" won 3.3 million box office with a drop of 30%, and the cumulative box office also reached the position of 181 million US dollars, which also marked that "Sleepless in Seattle" officially surpassed "Pretty Woman" and occupied the first place in the box office of romance movies in North American film history

Such a result is really no one can predict, just like when "Pretty Woman" became popular, "Sleepless in Seattle" also burst out of shocking energy in an instant when everyone was not optimistic, repeatedly surpassed its own limits, refreshed the historical record of box office numbers, and finally surpassed "Pretty Woman" and became the most "colorful" movie in the box office list among love genre works

"Sleepless in Seattle" broke the all-time record of "Pretty Woman" in 14 weeks of release, but it didn't stop completely, and it was released for another six weeks until the second week of November, and the entire release cycle lasted for 20 weeks, and finally accumulated $189 million at the box office

Although it is a pity that it did not cross the 'threshold' of 200 million US dollars, the box office figure of 189 million US dollars surpassed "Yihai Xiongfeng" and became the highest-grossing film among Hugo's personal works, which is probably a situation that even Hugo himself could not have predicted.

Although the common 'sex' of the love story makes the film also have a strong appeal in the overseas market, Hugo still lacks some appeal as the leading actor, and the media with the American imprint such as radio has also weakened the resonance of the overseas market a lot. The most important thing is that the two leading actors, Hugo and Meg, have not arranged any overseas promotional trips, which undoubtedly greatly weakens the box office competitiveness of the film in overseas markets.

In the end, the overseas market 'delivered' a table of 140 million US dollars, which is much lower than the box office in North America, but it is still a result worth celebrating, which also makes the global box office performance of "Sleepless in Seattle" reach 329 million US dollars in one fell swoop, which is not only Hugo's current highest-grossing work in the world, but also Hugo's first work to exceed 300 million at the global box office.

With an investment of only $20 million, "Sleepless in Seattle" eventually created an incredible box office miracle that lit up the whole summer and became the talk of the town in 1993.

Relying on the strong North American box office performance of "Sleepless in Seattle", Hugo got a 10% dividend Joseph only competed for Hugo for the right to box office dividends in North America, so Hugo could get a full dividend of 18.9 million US dollars, which also made Hugo's final official pre-tax remuneration exceed 20 million, becoming another actor whose salary can exceed 15 million US dollars after a group of top superstars such as Arnold Schwarzenegger , Sylvester Stallone, etc.

Joseph also took Hugo's strong performance and became a first-line agent overnight, and in the negotiation process of the salary of "Sleepless in Seattle", Joseph showed courage and wisdom to compete for an unprecedented contract for Hugo, which also became Joseph's most eye-catching resume since his career. This also allowed Joseph to earn the first million of his agent career

It is conceivable that Joseph will win more and more people's trust in the position of agent, and Joseph's career will be official.

There is no doubt that the 'gloom' haze of the past six months has completely dissipated, Hugo has officially announced a full recovery, and the 'gloomy' clouds brought about by the Golden Globe events have been swept away

In such a situation, people's attitude towards "Schindler's List" has also changed involuntarily, after all, this movie was originally blessed by Steven, could it be that "Schindler's List" is such a strict and heavy World War II movie can also create a miracle? Many media have begun to express their expectations.

However, compared to the media cheering for Hugo's strong recovery, there are also many people who are heavy because of the success of "Sleepless in Seattle".
