Now, the fall movie season is upon us, and you can expect the box office — like the weather — to cool off as studios roll out their second-string pics in the downtime before the awards race. 距离金刚狼用狼爪揭开暑假档的序幕已经有4个月，而变形金刚的四亿累积旅程 也已经展开11个星期了。现在，我们准备迎接电影秋季档的到来；就跟天气一样， 观众的买气也会变得比较冷，因为电影公司在奥斯卡竞争季开始之前，会将他们 手上的B咖级电影陆续清仓 Last year’s Labor Day weekend saw newcomers Babylon A.D., Traitor, and Disaster Movie get soundly beaten by holdover Tropic Thunder. This time around, we’ve got a similar crop of likely underachievers: The week’s two widest releases, Gamer and All About Steve, aren’t even screening for critics. On top of that, word-of-mouth champs Inglourious Basterds and District 9 will put up a strong fight for slots in the top five. Here’s how it might play out over the four-day Friday-to-Monday weekend: 去年劳工节周末推出的影片如巴比伦密码、叛国者与终极灾难电影，无论在票房 收入还是在口碑都无法击退上映有一段时间的开麦拉惊魂。今年此时，我们恐怕 也会看到类似的低成就作品，因为本周两部新上映电影「极限游戏」与「求爱女王」 根本没有开放影评试映；在另一端，口碑最好的「恶棍特工」与「第九禁区」 也尝试将排名稳定在前五名，以下是这四天可能的卖座走势 1. Gamer — $15 million Gerard Butler hasn’t starred in a straight-faced action movie since 2007’s 300. But don’t expect this futuristic battle pic to get anywhere near that blockbuster’s $70.9 million bow. Instead, look for it to ride the genre’s appeal to a $15 million haul—pocket change compared to recent weekend winners, but probably enough to take the top spot in a playing field like this. 1.极限游戏－1千5百万美金 这是杰洛巴特勒自从2007年的「三百壮士」之後，第一次主演直接冲突的动作片， 但不要指望这部未来械斗的电影，可以再度开出七千万的高票房；相反的， 能够吸引1千5百万对这种类型的影片应该算是极限了，跟过去几周相比当然是少了 许多，但是在本周的榜上名列前矛还是绰绰有余 2. The Final Destination — $14 million Horror pics typically bleed out in their first weekend, and this one won’t get any help from word-of-mouth (the movie averaged a C grade from viewers polled by Cinemascore). But 3-D thrills should still entice enough moviegoers to put it in the silver-medal spot. 2.绝命终结站4－1千4百万美金 这又是第一周暴走，但第二周就因为口碑不佳而狂跌的典型恐怖片走势（本片在 Cinemascore网站的观众投票只有C的评价），不过3D的魅力还是可以吸引足够的 观众，让他拿下亚军席次 3. All About Steve — $12 million While this quirky romcom has dismal buzz (it was originally slated for a March release), it does boast two stars fresh off of huge summer hits— Bradley Cooper broke through in The Hangover, while Sandra Bullock scored a career best with The Proposal. Combined with a lack of competition for female moviegoers, that should be enough to get Steve into the top three. 3.求爱女王－1千2百万美金 尽管这部风格古怪的浪漫喜剧上映前口碑是恐怖的糟（本片原本预计3月就要上映） ，但求片还是有两位在暑假表现不俗的卡司，他们分别是在「醉後大丈夫」大有 突破的布莱德利库伯与以「爱情限时签」创下个人最佳票房的珊卓布拉克；加上 目前缺乏其他以女性观众作为主打的电影竞争，本片仍然有望进入卖座榜前三名 4. Inglourious Basterds — $11 million Good word-of-mouth helped Quentin Tarantino’s WWII pic hold its own last weekend against the horror duo of The Final Destination and Halloween II. Look for it to have another soft decline this time around, pushing its cume past $90 million. 4.恶棍特工－1千1百万美金 优异的口碑让这部昆丁塔伦提诺执导的二战电影在上周有两部恐怖新片的夹击下， 依然能稳住阵脚。本片在本周可望仍有低跌幅，并且将累积票房推到9千万 5. Extract — $7 million Mike Judge’s dark comedy will have to fight middling reviews (like this one from EW’s Owen Gleiberman) and a less-than-confident release plan that puts the pic in just 1,600 theaters this week. Against those odds, it would be a pleasant surprise if the movie makes anything over $10 million. 5.Extract－7百万美金 麦可贾吉的新黑色喜剧目前有优劣不一的中等评价（比方说娱乐周刊的欧文葛利伯曼 给了C），加上片商很没信心的让本片只有1千6百家戏院上映，综合以上两种状况， 假如本片能在本周卖破1千万，我会感到又惊又喜 Also opening in limited release: Carriers – This apocalyptic horror pic probably only got a theatrical release thanks to star Chris Pine’s little trek through the stars earlier this summer. Look for it to tank in a token 100-theater release. 其他上映电影： 绝命带原者－ 这部有启示风格的恐怖片能够上映，应该要感谢暑假以「星际争霸战」跃升巨星的 克里斯派恩，不过只有100家戏院上映的本片，数字恐怕会很难看 -- / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ 口 口 口 口 口 口 口 口 口 Ｖ　　 Ｌ 　 　★　 　Ｃ　 Cs DN SA HEAT Ｄ　 囧总统 囧来恩 囧尔德 囧姆斯 囧奈特 囧东尼 窘肯 杜恩囧德 囧威司机 英囧 囧索 囧特 囧尼尔 囧尔斯 囧拉普斯 东尼囧克 囧斯利 杰森囧德 --
