&> The following week, the studio carefully added one more venue, from six to seven, and the move was evident that it was hit by the whole situation, and the pace of expansion was so conservative.

However, "" still relied on the hype of the "second showdown", and the box office of the single theater finally improved, rising directly to $36,000, and won $250,000 at the weekend box office in seven theaters, which is not so ugly; However, "" once again reaped $3.1 million at the box office with a drop against the sky, and still easily beat its opponent.

In fact, the studios' caution soon paid off, and the box office performance of the next "" exceeded expectations — compared to the response from critics and audiences after the premiere.

Thanks to the duel between Hugo and Brad, after entering 1995, "" handed over a good answer sheet when it was released in 2,000 theaters, and won the weekend box office of 14 million US dollars with a single theater of 7,000 US dollars.

At this moment, "", which has entered the second half of the box office, still controls its decline within 15 percent, but there is no way to break out a strong rise, and naturally it cannot form a confrontation with "". This is a contest of different levels in the true sense of the word.

Subsequently, the North American film market for the whole month of January was one, and the newly released works lacked competitiveness," "Relying on strong and intensive publicity, it actually achieved three consecutive championships! Although the box office number of winning the championship is less than 10 million, and the box office result of the third week of winning the championship weekend is only 6 million, which is really unsightly, but the three consecutive championships are three consecutive championships, and this achievement still makes the "Burning Years" sweep away the haze of the early stage and regain vitality.

In this wave of intensive publicity, Brad Pitt has become the biggest beneficiary, not only because he is the hero of the "second showdown", but also because of his perfect image in the "" is very popular, coupled with the popularity and heat left by "", which also makes Brad really touch the edge of the first-line lineup for the first time in a real sense.

At the time of the handover in 1994 and 1995, Brad officially rose!

Due to the constraints of the film's subject matter and word-of-mouth, the film was only released for 12 weeks, and the box office stopped at 61 million, which is completely inconsistent with its triple title. Not only is the number of championship weekends bleak, but the cumulative box office number in the middle of the week is really ugly, not to mention the 100 million threshold at the final box office, even 80 million is far away.

Such a triple crown, I'm afraid the film industry can't do anything.

It is worth mentioning that although the box office in North America is only 61 million, it is just a small number, which is not enough to make the film industry happy compared to the book cost of 30 million. But the overseas market performance of "Burning Years" is particularly good, and the global box office market outside of North America has witnessed Brad's sexuality. The overseas market swept the box office of $94 million, which not only far exceeded the North American results, but also brought the global box office of "Burning Years" to $160 million in one fell swoop.

This result is a sight to behold, at least compared to "", which not only allows Brad to add another work with a "box office of over 100 million", but also makes "" not too wolf in the duel with "".

Therefore, when people talk about "" again, they rarely mention the wolf bèi and desolation in the head-to-head confrontation of "Second Showdown", but more mention that this film made Brad and became the first milestone in the duel between Brad and Hugo.

Although it is said that "the global box office performance of 160 million US dollars is very good, but compared to the competition, this result is really unattainable, and the biggest significance of this film is to make Brad strong. Next, it's time to look at the "Burning Years" and "" at the awards ceremony.

The global box office of "" is not comparable at all in the face of the box office of 101.7 million in North America, 118 million overseas, and about 220 million worldwide.

Although it is said that after entering 1995, "" dominated for a period of time when there was no king in the mountains, but the expression of "" was strong from beginning to end, and the consistency and durability made people marvel and marvel.

Before the end of 1994, with the momentum of the Christmas holiday and the New Year's holiday, the box office of "" did not fall but rose, and successively broke out a box office increase of 15% and 47%, which was very different from the "" that was determined to go offline early, and the box office momentum was never fierce, and the audience's support has never weakened.

Many media have ridiculed that last year's ""indirectly caused" the early offline, and this year, "indirectly caused" the early offline and the long-term downturn of "", although everyone knows that this is just a joke, but Hugo still got a joking title, which is really laughable.

After entering 1995, "" went offline, "" expanded, and competitors made a lot of moves, but "" was not affected in any way, and still steadily continued its strength.

From the Golden Globe Awards to the Oscars, this work, which has been praised by journalists, film critics, and academics, has gained momentum, and the second round of expansion actually began in mid-February.

Starting from the first week of the new year, "" has increased by 50 to 100 theaters every week, expanding again; By mid-February, the number of theaters in theaters exceeded 1,000 again, and it lasted until the end of March, so the release curve was really unexpected by everyone.

In mid-February, "" was still able to maintain a single box office of more than 2,000 in 1,000 theaters, and the major theaters were naturally very willing to continue to allocate venues to screen this work.

In the end, the release curve of "" has been dragging and turning until the second week of April, and it has been in theaters for 27 weeks, not to mention compared with the eight screenings of "", even compared with most of the films that went offline after 22 weeks, the long-term box office of this movie is also very amazing, and the 12 weeks of "" are far below average.

It's clear which is higher and which is lower.

In the second week of February, the cumulative box office officially reached 150 million US dollars, although many media had predicted that this work could set the goal to this value, but when the "vulgar" really reached the goal, it still exceeded people's expectations again, and the media at that time were all discussing, did this countless miracles still want to challenge the 200 million box office threshold? Actually!

From 50 million to 100 million, and then to 150 million, the box office growth pace of "" with a cost of only 8 million is enough to leave all competitors behind and stand out.

However, the facts have proved that "" has created enough history, and the mid-nineties is not the best time to make further breakthroughs, which is the constraint of the entire era and the whole society, which requires the precipitation and brewing of time, the accumulation and superposition of works, and it is not a breakthrough that can be completed by a "vulgar". Although "Vulgar" was released until April, the cumulative box office was unsustainable, and the pace of progress gradually slowed down, and finally the cumulative box office in North America was 172 million US dollars!

This achievement is obviously still a long, far way from the threshold of 200 million.

The North American box office of 172 million also means that all speculation has settled, behind the glory of Hugo's five consecutive films breaking 100 million at the box office, and also announcing that Hugo's epic of three consecutive films breaking 200 million at the box office has not been achieved; In addition, this box office performance is also the worst among Hugo's last five films, only higher than the $170 million of "The Heroes of the Righteous Sea" released at the end of 1992, which means that Hugo's continuous rise in the box office of five consecutive films has come to an abrupt end.

Of course, this is just nitpicking.

""Won the box office of 170 million movies, easily exploded", "strong suppression", and achieved a hearty victory with an absolute advantage, if you take into account the investment of only 8 million in the movie? It can be said that no matter how you look at it, no matter what point in history you stand in, even 20 years later, it is still an incredible milestone. This work proved to everyone that there is also a wide market, and since then the entire North American film market has been surging.

What's more, the direct impact of """

Therefore, there is no doubt that ""the creation of history, the creation of history is incredible, and the creation of history that is difficult for successors to surpass; At the same time, Hugo created history, created history that Hollywood actors must look up to, and created history that even he himself could hardly surpass.

With the real end of "", the first wave of head-to-head confrontation between Hugo, Tom, and Brad, the three top actors, has also settled, and the result ended with Hugo's comprehensive victory, and the first battle was victorious, and the momentum was amazing! .
