Box office preview: 'Funny People' likely to top charts
命运好好笑可望称霸票房
by Nicole Sperling
Categories: Box Office
Judd Apatow has become a household name thanks to his past two outings:
Knocked Up and The 40-Year Old Virgin. But where both comedies went on to
become $100 million+ box office successes, his latest endeavor, Funny People,
is much more of a wild card. The R-rated flick still features some of Apatow’
s unique brand of comedy, but hidden within is the downer story of a sad
clown battling a fatal disease. The upshot: Adam Sandler is the star.
The film's sure to open at No. 1. How it holds on will be anyone’s guess.
由於「好孕临门」与「40处男」陆续在美国破亿,这两片的编导贾德爱帕托
已经成为家喻户晓的大人物。不过他的新片「命运好好笑」这回的身分可不只是
一张外卡而已(比较少影评会看好票房的卖座黑马),这部R级喜剧虽然仍然有
爱氏独特笑点,但也有喜剧明星与绝症对抗隐含的感伤情节。命片由於有了亚当
山德勒挂头牌,目标当然是第一名,比较让影迷关心的是:本片能开出多高的票房?
1. Funny People: $35 million
While Virgin bowed to $21 million with an unknown Steve Carrell at the center
and Knocked Up pulled in $30 million with newcomer Seth Rogen, Funny People
has giant movie star Adam Sandler leading the charge. But the comedy pro is
leaving his PG comfort zone and the results when he does so are never
certain. Prognosticators have this film opening all over the map. I’m going
with $35 million. Sandler and Apatow could prove to be a very formidable
combination, even with a close to 2 1/2 hour run time.
1.命运好好笑-3千5百万美金
由当时尚未成名的史蒂夫卡尔主演的「40处男」後来开出2100万的票房,
新秀塞斯罗根挂帅的「好孕临门」的首映则进步到3千万,至於今年的命片
虽然有了巨星级的亚哥领衔,但是这是他第一次离开PG级的安全范围,
所以结果也变得难以预料。影评人本片票房的预测相当广泛,而我认为
他会开出3千5百万,因为就算本片长达2个半小时,亚哥与爱帕托还是
相当有威力的组合
(PS:本文下面有很多影迷认为太高估了)
2. G-Force: $17 million
Those covert guinea pigs proved to be a box office hit this last weekend at
the movies. While Fox’s Aliens in the Attic will take away some of its power
in round two, the movie’s unlikely to fall more than 50% for the frame.
Pretty impressive that animated guinea pigs will cross $50 million after less
than ten days of release.
2.鼠胆妙算-1千7百万美金
这些卧底的天竺鼠已经在上周证明了他们在电影市场有很大的吸引力,
虽然本周福斯的「楼上邻居外星人」会消弱本片的作战能力,不过跌幅
还是能控制在5成以内,这些老鼠也将在上映10天之内就赚到让人刮目
相看的5千万票房
3. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince: $15 million
Potter bows on IMAX theaters this frame, which will surely help cushion its
drop in its third weekend. The movie has already grossed $221 million, more
than its predecessor at the same time in its release pattern. If it maintains
its momentum, Half-Blood Prince could hit $300 million by the end of its
domestic run.
3.哈利波特:混血王子的背叛-1千5百万美金
HP6终於将在本周进驻美国的IMAX电影院,这多少能让本片在第三周的
表现更为亮丽。哈6目前已经有超过2.2亿的票房,比哈5同时期的收入
还要高,假如H-BP的走势能继续稳定,他的全美票房可望在下片之前
突破3亿
4. The Ugly Truth: $13.5 million
This Katherine Heigl-Gerard Butler update on the age-old conundrum of
man/woman incompatibility surprised everyone last weekend with its opening
take of $27.6 million. Turns out moviegoers like and want more romantic
comedies, especially the R-rated ones. Expect a drop of around 50%, which
would be quite a feat considering how critics hated the film.
4.男女生了没-1350万美金
凯萨琳海格与杰洛巴特勒主演的老掉牙男女对立戏码让所有影评都大吃一惊,
因为他的首映居然高达2千7百万,这似乎显示影迷既喜欢又需要爱情喜剧,
尤其是这种游走在尺度边缘的R级喜剧。不过我认为本片还是会有将近一半的
跌幅,因为本片还是得不到影评人的喜爱
5. Aliens in the Attic: $13 million
This PG-rated low-budget comedy originally titled They Came From Upstairs
should open decently. From director John Schultz (The Honeymooners), the
movie centers on a group of teenagers, including Ashley Tisdale, who must
protect their vacation home from aliens residing in the attic. Kevin Nealon,
Doris Roberts, and Tim Meadows co-star.
5.楼上邻居外星人-1千3百万美金
这部普遍级的低成本喜剧本周应该也会有不错的表现,本片叙述以少男杀手
艾希莉提丝黛儿为首的年轻人,必须扞卫自己的度假别墅免於阁楼里面
外星人的攻击,本片的演员还包括凯文尼伦、朵莉丝罗伯兹与提姆梅铎
