Chapter 707 Outstanding Performance


Chapter 707 Outstanding Performance

In addition to box office data, there is also word-of-mouth from the media and audiences, which is almost overwhelmingly positive.

On a rating website called Douban over there, the score remains a perfect ten. This is a very remarkable achievement for a film that has just been released.

Although Douban has always had a filter on Hollywood movies, the quality of "The Dark Knight" is really high, and it is normal for it to have a high rating.

It’s starting to move from early morning to daytime over there, and the midnight show in North America has just officially started.

Because of the overwhelming praise from the media beforehand, coupled with the appeal that Gilbert Jr. has accumulated over the years, and the IP of "Batman", a large number of movie fans chose to enter the cinema regardless of the dangers of the night.

It is a long night, and it is destined to be an uncomfortable night for all cinemas showing "The Dark Knight".

Especially IMAX theaters. Even Chinese people on the other side of the Pacific know that IMAX theaters have good viewing effects, let alone North American audiences?

The 187 IMAX theaters were almost full, and just like that, many viewers who couldn't buy tickets were noisy.

“Why are all the tickets sold out? I didn’t even see it.”

"That's it, can we increase ticket sales? I can stand and watch."

"Yes, yes, we stand and watch, so it won't affect others."

IMAX Company Investigator Paul squatted in an IMAX theater in New York to observe the audience's reaction. When he heard the above conversation, he wrote in his notebook that movies in the IMAX format were very popular.

Because of cooperation with theater chains, Paul can go into the IMAX theater to observe the audience without buying a ticket.

When he entered the cinema, he saw the audience staring intently at the big screen, unable to take their eyes off the people around them.

I stopped drinking Coke, stopped eating popcorn, and stopped holding my girlfriend’s soft little hands. My attention was completely attracted by the big screen.

Obviously, "The Dark Knight" in the IMAX format exudes charm and the effect is really great.

After Paul came out, he called the head office: "Hey, Thomas, I suggest that all IMAX theaters in North America increase the number of shows. Yes, it is best to start showing the show at six o'clock in the morning.

I’m telling you, the audience is going crazy, they’re going to protest if they can’t see “The Dark Knight” in IMAX format.”

The IMAX headquarters was brightly lit, and all the executives didn’t go back. Stay with the company.

"How's it going? Is the data out?"

"I got it. The attendance rate reached 100%. The box office of a single theater was US$63,255, which is a new box office record for a single theater in North America."

"How much? What's the attendance rate?"

"One hundred percent."

"Great, I propose that we drink to "The Dark Knight" and to Little Gilbert!"< br>


The excellent data makes IMAX executives extremely excited. "The Dark Knight" can help IMAX break the deadlock. I chose to cooperate with Little Gilbert just for today.

Of course, IMAX theaters are only a minority, and the other theaters also create quite incredible data.

Warner's theater chain investigators visited movie theaters in cities across the country and found that "The Dark Knight" exists in almost every conceivable place in North America.

The theater chain survey is to report the detailed data of the theater chain to the film company, so that the film company can decide the promotion strategy based on word of mouth and box office data.

There is no doubt that the theater survey data of "The Dark Knight" is very outstanding and has received widespread praise. "I give this film an A+. Director Gilbert Jr.'s camera language and action scenes are always so tense. This is the best superhero movie I have seen in a while, bar none."


“Little Gilbert is very good at photographing men. Even Heath Ledger in clown makeup is very charming. I want to give it an A+.”

“It’s really true. There is no reason to give a low score. I think this movie has completely raised the level of superhero movies. Heath Ledger fully deserves an Oscar. I give it an A+”

Of course, it’s not all one-sided. Although there are good reviews, there are also negative reviews.

The negative reviews mainly focus on several points such as being too heavy, too depressing, and not making people happy. But as for the plot, even viewers with negative reviews can't find anything wrong with it.

"At present, we have received 65,338 theater chain investigation reports. It can be clearly seen that 91% of them received A+ reviews, 6% received C or below, and the remaining 3%".

Obviously, there are more positive reviews and more negative reviews than middle scores, showing a polarized trend. However, most viewers still gave it favorable reviews, proving the popularity of "The Dark Knight".

Warner Pictures CEO Keeley Ross frowned. She was very happy that "The Dark Knight" was a hit. After all, it was the best-selling film since she became CEO.

But she was unhappy because this was a movie directed by Gilbert Jr., and she wanted to eliminate Gilbert Jr.'s influence at Warner Bros.

But is it possible? Warner Pictures' performance this year may depend entirely on "The Dark Knight."

When she thought about having to congratulate and toast little Gilbert on behalf of Warner Pictures at the celebration banquet, Keeley Rose felt sick just thinking about it.

But there is no way. Little Gilbert's incident told her that Hollywood is not an industry where you can survive by being clever and tricking people.

The most important thing here is profit. Whoever can bring profit is the father of the film company.

The current situation is that Keeley Rose does not want to continue to support little Gilbert, the big daddy of Warner Pictures. So the top priority was to find a new father, so Keeley Rose chose Zack Snyder.

Although Zack Snyder is also from Melon Studio, compared to Christopher Nolan, Zack Snyder is easier to dig.

And Zack Snyder's "300" did well at the box office, and he is a potential director in Hollywood.

Kelly Rose was still secretly thinking that little Gilbert's first movie only had a box office of more than 100 million US dollars, but Zack Snyder's box office was more than 500 million US dollars.

Kelly Rose is just like LeBron James fans, they only look at the data tables and completely ignore the reality.

Little Gilbert's film was in the 1990s, when it was quite a feat for a movie to break $100 million. Tom Cruise has to have a celebration party if his movie breaks over 100 million.

Moreover, the cost of "Shark Tank" was only US$3.5 million, while Zack Snyder's "300" cost US$75 million.

But once a person is prejudiced, it is difficult to change his mind.

Just like James fans always surround James to save James, it's all a flow of impressions. By the way, this year the Lakers hired Gasol and are preparing to compete for the championship.

Young James was just shaved off by the Spurs last year, and Duncan started to use You Zhan to brush up on statistics.

Gilbert Jr.'s Thunder team's record this year is still very poor, but Kevin Durant, the rookie selected last year, has performed well. So far, he has averaged 20.4 points, 6.5 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game. He is definitely the best rookie. It's arrived.

In order to motivate Kevin Durant, Gilbert Jr. filled a bottle of water from Scarlett's bathtub while she was taking a shower and took it to the game.

Of course, just to show Durant, it is impossible to let him drink.
