Chapter 1308: 1308

Since the "New York Post" at the beginning of the year expressed concern about the gradual decline of Hugo's career, people have been looking forward to Hugo's outbreak. People are wondering whether Hugo's latest work after "Before Sunrise" will be a huge success, or will it continue to decline, and where Hugo's career will go.

For most of the year, Hugo's performance proved that the New York Post's concerns were unnecessary, but Hugo still missed this year's summer session, making all rebuttals appear "less forceful", so People are looking forward to the outbreak of Hugo, to see what kind of attitude Hugo will use to refute the "career decline theory" set off by the "New York Post".

But no one could have predicted that the "Seven Deadly Sins" would become a flashpoint.

According to historical experience, the thrilling and suspenseful "Seven Deadly Sins" and the plot-heavy "Death Convict Walk" are difficult to become box office flashpoints. This is also the important reason why countless people expressed their frustration after Hugo missed "Mission Impossible" . The general professional opinion in Hollywood is that the 10 million salary of "Seven Deadly Sins" becomes the first step, and then Hugo will take on a work similar to "Life and Death", and then complete the explosion next year. , once again defending his superstar status.

But no one thought that the "Death Ramble" had just been completed, and the "Seven Deadly Sins" had already achieved a full-scale outbreak.

But everything seemed to be doomed. In April, Michael Jackson washed away his grievances, and then detonated the August 5th rebellion; in February, the Grammy stage broke out and dominated the "Wonderwall". "The magnificence of "Apologize" in turn led to the strength of "Apologize"; Hugo's excessive pressure during the shooting of "Death Row" led to a collapse, which directly led to a major change in media self-reflection.

One incident after another, seemingly unrelated, culminated in an explosion of amazing energy, fueled by the Los Angeles Times review by Nicholas!

At this time, the responsibility of the media and the professional ethics of journalism are being discussed all over the United States, and it has even risen to the level of the presidential election, becoming the focus of discussion for every ordinary person. The "Seven Deadly Sins" quickly became the focus of attention as a vehicle to expose social indifference and social darkness.

The "Seven Deadly Sins" at this moment has surpassed the responsibility of a movie, and is more like a social event, which has triggered a frenzy of audiences entering the cinema. Not to mention the fact that young volcanoes flocked to the cinema to show their support for Hugo with practical actions, as if supporting the single "Apologize", their support for "Seven Deadly Sins" was obviously also for the August 5th rebellion. continuation.

Under various factors, history was born like this. In the fourth week of September 1995, the "Seven Deadly Sins", which were the most unlikely to achieve a breakthrough, completed an incredible explosion, with 13,758 The single-house box office swept more than 34 million US dollars at the premiere box office, shattered the glasses of countless people, and refreshed a series of film history records in September with a sweeping attitude.

"Seven Deadly Sins" not only became the box office champion of the film's premiere in September, but also set a new box-office record for the film's entire fall season. It has undoubtedly become the record holder for the premiere of a thriller and suspense film, and the premiere of a serial killer film. The screen record holder has also set a new box office record for the premiere of the three leading actors, and has also tapped the unlimited potential of the September film market, making everyone amazed or amazed.

In the midst of such a massive outburst of "Seven Deadly Sins", many people noticed one small thing: The New York Post didn't respond! They didn't even write a review for The Seven Deadly Sins!

At the beginning, the "New York Post" swore that "before sunrise" was the starting point of Hugo's career decline, but now, only half a year later, "Seven Deadly Sins" has responded to this view with such a strong performance, but In the face of the strong attack of the "Seven Deadly Sins", the "New York Post", which was very active before, has completely disappeared from the audience's sight. This is really a huge contrast.

This is also widely considered to be the moment when the New York Post slapped itself in the face, ashamed and humiliated. As one of the top ten best-selling newspapers in the United States, the "New York Post" actually retaliated against Hugo's provocation in this way, and finally humiliated itself. This is also a historical moment for the "New York Post".

Colin Meyer also completely did not expect such a situation. The reason why he did not write a film review of "Seven Deadly Sins" is that he did not want to provoke Hugo in a short time. After all, the "National Enquirer" is still the owner He didn't want to involve the "New York Post" as a punching bag; on the one hand, it was also because the alliance was blocked, although it was said that the alliance was already in vain, "USA Today", "Houston Chronicle", "San Francisco Chronicle" have all been. Published the "Seven Deadly Sins" film review, but Colin still didn't want to make Hugo too proud, so he continued the practice of refusing to report on Hugo news since May.

But I didn't expect that now this decision is shooting myself in the foot. At the time, Colin was proud of the "Hugo Fall Theory" for a long time, and the sales of the "New York Post" also hit peaks, but now the retribution has come so quickly and so fiercely that Colin didn't even have the space to fight back. He was blinded by Hugo's straight punch and was overwhelmed.

In the face of the "Seven Deadly Sins", Colin couldn't tell the bitterness. He couldn't justify the real reason why he didn't report the "Seven Deadly Sins", and he couldn't explain the background of the original "Hugo Glide Theory"——" "The Seven Deadly Sins" is only the premiere now, and the future results are still unknown. Due to the whole situation, Colin's defense will become a sophistry, and it will only become a joke, not to mention that the current "Seven Deadly Sins" have set off a crusade against the news media in the entire public opinion circle. "Fall into hell. He could only close his mouth.

Even the film review for the "Seven Deadly Sins" itself has missed the opportunity to release it now. If it is not released, it will implement everyone's speculation about the "New York Post"; when it is released, everyone will ridicule their hindsight. Now Colin is in a dilemma, and he can only bite the bullet and release the film review cheekily, and then argue that "this is a planned film review, they originally planned to release the film after the second week of release", with this kind of ostrich mentality to fool the past.

The "New York Post" really lost face and sanity this time. It was unable to defend itself because of the internal injury, and the sales of the newspaper did not gain any benefit! This is worse than the low point after the witch trials, and Colin almost didn't vomit blood from internal injuries.

On the opening weekend, with a box office of 34 million US dollars, "Seven Deadly Sins" swept the North American film market with a destructive attitude. In the face of all sophistry, sophistry, conspiracy, and conspiracy, absolute strength is the real right to speak. This box office data Not only did the New York Post shut up, but the whole of Hollywood cheered and celebrated the huge victory of The Seven Deadly Sins.

Because all the studios have realized: Even the September they abandoned was not useless. Where there is interest, there are happy events, the hyenas are seeking new goals again, and the "Seven Deadly Sins" obviously opened the door.

In the face of such a shocking achievement, Colin Myler is completely powerless to resist, and everyone takes it for granted that Brad Pitt should be overjoyed: because he is the first actor of "Seven Deadly Sins", Morgan and Rain Fruits are supporting roles.

But here is the problem! Obviously Brad is the male lead, but he is not happy, because no one remembers that he is the male lead, everyone is admiring Hugo's performance, and everyone is amazed at Hugo's irreplaceable contribution to the film, Everyone is talking about Hugo's victory again, everyone is lamenting the vicious vision of Hugo's choice of works, everyone is amazed at the breakthrough of Hugo's acting skills, everyone compares Hugo and Anthony Huo. Putkins is on a par - when Anthony only had 16 minutes of performance in "Silence of the Lambs", he won the Oscar in one fell swoop, and this time Hugo's role in the film is even less, the last 20 minutes of the film. In the debut, only less than fourteen minutes of the scene, but steals the limelight.

Hugo, Hugo, Hugo... There are Hugos everywhere, as if Hugo is the hero, just like Anthony was in "Silence of the Lambs", but the real hero was left out - not only Only to be ignored and ridiculed. The unimaginable pressure on Brad's shoulders almost drove him crazy.

The more people praise and celebrate Brad, the more uncomfortable he is, because every word will remind him: he is the hero, but he is not like the hero at all, the salary is only half of Hugo's, and the performance is completely destroyed , has a lot of scenes but still looks like an invisible man...

Brad felt like he was going insane, and the feeling of being stuck in his throat was almost unbearable. After "Interview with the Vampire", Brad also felt this way, so he has made up his mind to never cooperate with Tom Cruise again; and this time the pressure brought by Hugo is stronger and more severe, Brad knows , Tom and Hugo are his competitors, and they are also competitors that he must overcome, but he will not cooperate with Hugo in the future.

"Seven Deadly Sins" swept the box office of 34 million US dollars in its premiere weekend, and was no suspense at the North American box office in the fourth week of September. The other works did not have any resistance at all, and collectively surrendered! The box office of all the works from the second to the fourteenth place is superimposed, and it is comparable to the "Seven Deadly Sins" movie. This week's North American box office "The Seven Deadly Sins" alone accounted for 100% of the total amount. Forty-nine!

Such power made the entire North American film market tremble. "Silence of the Lambs" swept the box office of 130 million US dollars in North America. "Can the "Seven Deadly Sins" for comparison break the historical record of the predecessors?
