Thanks to the one-two punch of the summer-esque blockbuster wannabe Fast & Furious and the strong holdover Monsters vs. Aliens, Hollywood could see its first April weekend ever to boast two $30 mil-plus grossers. Sure, that's one of those made up "records" that industry trackers love to trumpet, but it does speak to a broader issue that we've been aware of for some time now: Those antique things known as seasons are fading fast from movieland, for better or worse. And now, for better or worse, here are my weekend picks. 最近外頭的天氣並不會很熱，但鄉民們，我很確定電影院就跟暑假一樣熱！ 感謝一連兩部有暑假大片水準的強檔「玩命關頭4」與「怪獸大戰外星人」， 好萊塢影壇這個禮拜可望出現4月第一個兩部電影都有3千萬美金的週末。 當然，這只不過是娛樂圈記者們想要大作文章的「紀錄」，但這的確可以 延伸出另一個我們現在就值得注意的議題：「季節」這個古董玩意兒在 電影世界是越來越不重要了，無論好壞。現在，無論好壞，以下是我的 週末預測 1.Fast & Furious -- $41 million Yeah, yeah, this fourth installment in Universal's inexplicably popular car-smashing franchise has the same cast and title as the first film -- minus a few "the"s. Nice. It kinda reminds me of what Sylvester Stallone did with the name of his Rocky return, Rocky Balboa, a few years ago. Anyway, Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Michelle Rodriguez, and Jordana Brewster are all back in their original roles, and that should bring back audiences, right? Well, sure, why not? Folks flocked to the first two films in the series (which opened to $40.1 mil in 2000 and then $50.5 mil in 2003), so this reunion/throwback should attract the same kind of crowd. I mean, Vin Diesel has had an up-and-down career arc in the years since, and the other actors haven't really broken out, but that shouldn't stop people from going, eh? 1.玩命關頭4：4100萬美金 是的，由環球公司第4次投資，令人感到驚奇的尬車經典系列，使用了 當初第一集的演員與相同片名，除了冠詞「The」之外。很棒！這讓我想起 幾年前席維斯史特龍以洛基重返影壇時，就用Rocky Balboa作為片名。總之， 馮迪索、保羅沃克、蜜雪兒羅德里奎茲與喬丹娜布魯斯特的角色通通都回來了， 應該可以把觀眾們都帶回來吧？當然可以囉，為何不呢？鄉民們對於前兩集的 態度都很踴躍（玩命關頭1首映4010萬美金，飆風再起首映5050萬美金）， 所以這次主角們的重聚應該可以吸引相同的觀眾群。我個人認為，儘管馮迪索 這幾年的演藝生涯有高也有低，其他演員們也沒有完全地突破，但這應該不會 阻止鄉民們去戲院吧？ 2.Monsters vs. Aliens -- $36 million If Fast & Furious tanks -- or even comes in on the lower end of expectations -- this'll be the No. 1 movie for a second straight weekend. Having banked a sweet $3 mil-plus per day during the middle of the week, DreamWorks Animation's 3-D family flick should suffer a merely minor decline from its hefty $59.3 mil debut last time around. 2.怪獸大戰外星人：3600萬美金 假如玩命關頭4失速了，或者不符合觀眾期待，本片就很有機會二連冠。 由於在非週末期間仍然有每天至少3百萬的收入，夢工廠動畫部的家庭3D電影 的下降幅度應該不會太大 3.Adventureland -- $12 million People love the infinitely noogie-able Jesse Eisenberg and Twilight's Kristen Stewart, but will that widespread affection translate into box office bucks for this new raw comedy from Greg Mottola, the director of Superbad? Yes, but only to a certain extent. The movie is playing in just 1,862 theaters, so its financial upside is relatively limited. 3.Adventureland：1200萬美金 觀眾們喜歡可愛的Jesse Eisenberg與暮光之城女主角克莉絲汀史都華， 但是這些廣泛的熱愛能否轉化成為「男孩我最壞」導演最新玩笑開很大的喜劇 的門票收入呢？可以，但只是在一定的程度上，因為本片只有在1862家戲院 上映，所以賣座高峰也相對有限 4.The Haunting in Connecticut -- $10 million Virginia Madsen's thriller surprised with a $23 mil debut last time around. But horror movies always tend to fall off pretty fast (and, uh, furiously). 4.康乃迪克鬼屋事件：1000萬美金 維吉妮亞麥德森的驚悚片讓人驚訝的在上映首周賺到了2300萬，不過恐怖片 的賣座曲線一向容易下降的很快（而且降很大！） 5.I Love You, Man -- $8 million Paul Rudd and Jason Segel's bromance brought in a somewhat soft $17.8 mil on its first weekend, although it dropped just 29 percent in its second frame. Competition with fellow R-rated funny film Adventureland may depress I Love You, Man's grosses a bit more this time, but people clearly aren't ready to dump the cool comedy just yet. Okay, box office fans, now it's your turn to predict the weekend's results! 5.麻吉伴郎：800萬美金 保羅路德與傑森席格的「兄弟之情」（bromance）喜劇在第一周就賺到了1780萬， 而且第二週也只下滑了29啪。雖然說同樣是R級喜劇的「Adventureland」多少會讓 本片賣座行情下滑，不過觀眾顯然還不打算放棄這部很酷的喜劇 好了，對票房有研究的影迷們，現在是你預測的時候了！ -- 尋找最初的夢想 世新大學 廣電系 第十五屆畢業成果展 初，一十五 5/8-11 @ 豪華In89數位影城 http://www.wretch.cc/blog/rtf15th --
