'Hellboy II': 'Golden' at the Box Office?
"地狱怪客2"变身票房金童?
Guillermo del Toro's comic-fantasy sequel has the edge against Eddie Murphy's
''Meet Dave'' and the 3-D ''Journey to the Center of the Earth'' this weekend
吉勒摩戴托洛的奇幻漫画续集片,本周末有机会打败艾迪墨菲的「大卫特大号」
与3D版本的「地心冒险」
This weekend, Hollywood is spreading the love. For the first time all summer,
a whopping three releases, each with a decent chance to earn big bucks, are
set to debut: Hellboy II: The Golden Army, Meet Dave, and a new version of
Journey to the Center of the Earth that's being shown in 3-D.
本周,好莱坞要散布"爱的力量"。今年暑假第一次,有三部强档要同时上映,而且
每一部都有赚大钱的潜力:地狱怪客2、大卫特大号,以及新版本的「地心冒险」将会
在3D戏院上映
Yep, it'll be a multiplex filled with a little bit for everyone — and a lot
of suspense as we wait to see which film will come out on top. My picks are
below and you can make yours in EW.com's Summer Box Office Challenge. Just
remember: Three times the new releases equals three times the fun!
没错,电影院将会有不少人要去看不同的电影,我们也正等着看哪一部可以脱颖而出。
以下是我的预测,你也可以将你的预测放到EW.com的活动中。记住:三倍的新上映电影
,代表的就是三倍的乐趣
THE (LIKELY) TOP FIVE
预测前五电影
Hellboy II: The Golden Army
Universal ‧ PG-13 ‧ 3,204 theaters ‧ NEW
Thanks to his technical and critical success with Pan's Labyrinth, Guillermo
del Toro has, apparently, been elevated to auteur status since the premiere
of the first Hellboy movie, four-plus years ago. Based on a relatively
obscure comic book and featuring no major stars (Ron Perlman? The Beast?
C'mon), that film earned an impressive $23.2 mil on its first weekend, en
route to a $59.6 mil domestic total and major success on home video. So now
we've got a sequel that appears to be bigger in every way: more star power
(hey, British thesp Luke Goss!); a director — sorry, auteur — who's now a
household name; and a much more substantial marketing push. Oh, and reviews
have been very nice, too. Considering that this has been a good summer for
comic-book movies (Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, and Wanted have all been
hits), Hellboy II sure smells like a winner.
Weekend prediction: $33 million
1.地狱怪客2:金甲军团
环球/PG13/3204家戏院/新上映
感谢先前技术上与评论上都大获成功的「羊男的迷宫」,吉勒摩戴托洛已经明显
将他的地位提高到大师等级。4年前,这部相对黑暗,也没有大明星坐镇的漫画
(朗普曼?拜托),令人印象深刻的在首周赚了2320万,同时在全美赚取5960万
总票房以及在DVD销售的大成功。
所以现在,这部续集在每个方面看起来,都比以前还要更大规模:更强的明星魅力
(嘿,来自英国的路克高思)、家喻户晓的导演,抱歉前面应该加上「大师级」、
以及更有赚头的票房市场。对了,这部片最近的影评也非常友善。再加上今年对
漫画片来说是个不错的暑假(钢铁人、无敌浩克、刺客联盟都很卖座),地狱怪客2
看起来绝对有赢的本钱
预测周末票房:3300万
Hancock
Columbia ‧ PG-13 ‧ 3,965 theaters ‧ 2nd weekend
Will Smith will have tallied his fifth consecutive $150 mil domestic earner
by the end of the weekend (bravo!) — and that's even after Hancock drops
nearly 60 percent while competing against so much fresh fare.
Weekend prediction: $27 million
2.全民超人
新力/PG13/3965家戏院/第二周
威尔史密斯将会在本周挑战连续五部作品,都在美国卖座1亿五千万的纪录(万岁!)
,即使全民超人将在本周下跌将近六成,同时还要面对这麽多新来的敌人
预测周末票房:2700万
WALL-E
Walt Disney/Pixar ‧ G ‧ 3,849 theaters ‧ 3rd weekend
The latest Pixar fable has $140 mil in the bank so far, and its sights are
set on the $200 mil mark. But will the opening of the kid-friendly Journey to
the Center of the Earth have an impact on WALL-E's box office fortunes this
weekend? Not likely (see below).
Weekend prediction: $20 million
3.瓦力
迪士尼-皮克斯/G/3849家戏院/第三周
这部皮克斯最新的科幻寓言,目前赚了1亿4千万,同时也将最终目标锁定在突破两亿。
但是看起来对小孩有吸引力的「地心冒险」,会对瓦力的票房数字造成影响嘛?
应该是不会(原因後述)
预测周末票房:2000万
Meet Dave
Fox ‧ PG ‧ 3,011 theaters ‧ NEW
It's never a good sign when a studio doesn't host advance screenings of a
movie, which happened (or, I guess, didn't happen) in this case. Even still,
tell me: Are you really dying to see this high-concept Eddie Murphy comedy,
formerly known as Starship Dave, in which an alien spaceship/robot resembling
Eddie Murphy and captained by someone who also looks like Eddie Murphy lands
on Earth? Didn't think so. Does that plot summary even make sense? Didn't
think so, either. The last time Murphy did the space thing, he crashed with
The Adventures of Pluto Nash (which was one of the biggest flops ever,
earning just $4.4 mil in the summer of 2002). Then again, as the somewhat
inexplicably successful Norbit, Daddy Day Care, and The Haunted Mansion
prove, Murphy is one of the most durable box-office draws around.
Weekend prediction: $11 million
4.大卫特大号
福斯/PG/3011家戏院/新上映
当片厂没有举办试映会时,对电影来说绝对不是好预兆。
就算片厂没有取消试片会,请告诉我:这部由艾迪莫非主演,之前叫做Starship Dave
的高概念喜剧,内容是说艾迪墨菲外型的外星人太空船,同时也由艾迪墨菲饰演的船长
,领导他降落地球,你会想看嘛?我不会!剧情大纲有意义嘛?我也不认为!
上次墨非尝试与太空相关的电影,是影史最大惨败之一的「星际冒险王」(2002暑假
只赚了440万)。不过,他也有不少难以理解的成功片,如糯米正传、奶爸安亲班、
鬼屋,都证明了墨菲是影坛最耐用的票房明星之一
预测周末票房:1100万
Journey to the Center of the Earth
Warner Bros./New Line ‧ PG ‧ 2,811 theaters ‧ NEW
Here we have the last official release from the old incarnation of New Line
(the film was made and set to premiere before the studio was absorbed by
Warner Bros. earlier this year), which is being shown in 3-D in 854
locations. (It is, in fact, the first live-action movie to be shot in digital
3-D.) I had the chance to see it at the ShoWest convention in Las Vegas in
March and was impressed. But I also wondered if a remake of Jules Verne's
classic adventure, featuring Brendan Fraser and a bunch of newcomers, will
truly appeal to families who are accustomed to thrills courtesy of Hulks and
Iron Men and Will Smiths these days. The 3-D aspect may attract some
customers (and the more-expensive 3-D tickets are an added plus), but I fear
this film could wind up a noble failure.
Weekend prediction: $10 million
5.地心冒险
华纳-新线/PG/2811家戏院/新上映
本片刚好是旧型态新线影业,正式发行的最後一部电影
(本来要在新线完全被华纳兄弟掌控之前上映)。
这部影史第一部真人演出的数位3D电影,将会在854个有3D设备的戏院上映。
我曾经在三月赌城的ShoWest会议中目睹,并让我印象深刻,
但是我也怀疑,这部改编自Jules Verne的经典冒险小说,
由布兰登费雪加上一些新人的组合,
是否能吸引已经在最近习惯於浩克、钢铁人与威尔史密斯视觉刺激的家庭。
就3D技术而言,他的确可以吸引一些影迷(当然也包括更贵的票价),
但是我更担心本片是个大失败
预测周末票房:1000万
