Chapter 973

The main cost of "Chain Saw" is actually on those killing props.

Owens is indeed a very thoughtful director, or in other words, a particularly heavy-handed director.

Lin Xiao even once thought that this guy was a pervert.

He cared about those killing props beyond ordinary people.

Owens even made several promotional suggestions for the film.

He suggested that more killing props could be produced at that time, and then put in some movie theaters for the audience to experience.

Although this idea is heavy mouthed, it has to be said that it is indeed a good idea.

"Chain Saw" went from project approval to filming very quickly. Originally, it was just a low-cost movie.

But Nami found that Lin Xiao cared far more about "Chain Saw" than "Reaper".

The fact is the same, well, in fact, Lin Xiao's expectations for "Chain Saw" are indeed higher than "Reaper".

During the filming of "Chain Saw", Lin Xiao even visited the crew on purpose. In fact, of course Lin Xiao would not tell Owens and them that he was only interested in shooting those death scenes.

Lin Xiao is a director himself, but he is relatively unfamiliar with horror films, especially horror films like "Saw".

In the past two months, Legendary Pictures has successfully attracted the attention of many people. "Taken" and "Death Is Coming", especially the former, were released in North America for 2 months and finally won a box office of 2.1 million US dollars. Hua Guo also received more than 10 billion Chinese dollars at the box office.

It can be said that it is definitely a big hit movie, and although "Reaper" is not as good as "Taken", this low-cost movie has also made many horror fans applaud.

"Home Alone and Lost in Seattle" and "Taken" and "Death Comes" are naturally different.

This sequel of "Home Alone", or the North American version of "Home Alone", although the first all-China lineup did not achieve very good results in North America, it has a very good reputation.

As for the North American version of "Home Alone", many people are looking forward to it.

Dick Group, of course, also attaches great importance to "Home Alone and Lost in Seattle". Not only did it arrange more than 3500 theaters for "Home Alone and Lost in Seattle", but the premiere ceremony was also held very grandly.

Although Dick Group's status in Hollywood is not the highest among the several giants, it should not be underestimated. Therefore, tonight can be said to be a gathering of stars.

The variety reality show "Home Alone" is popular in North America, and many North American viewers have long been looking forward to the release of the North American version of "Home Alone".

As a result, "Home Alone and Lost in Seattle" did not disappoint. The box office on the first day broke out a super box office of 3800 million US dollars, which surprised countless people.

Of course, this is also due to the Dick Group's spare no effort to provide resources, as well as the huge amount of publicity expenses spent on US dollar bills.

"Home Alone and Lost in Seattle" not only has a strong box office, but also has a very good reputation.

"This is a comedy that allows people to stand in and come out by leaning on the wall. The only bad thing is that it may make your children become naughty!"

Many media and audiences gave this film very high marks.

Of course, this is a commercial film after all, so naturally there is nothing to say on the artistic level.

"Home Alone and Lost in Seattle" took in 3800 million, 3800 million, and 4250 million in the first three days of the weekend after the box office of 3722 million on the first day.

The daily box office champion for three consecutive days, the box office directly reached 1 million in the first weekend.

Aspiring to be the box office champion of the week is naturally a matter of course.

The success of "Home Alone Lost in Seattle" proves that the "Home Alone" series of movies has taken shape. Before, because it was only the Chinese version, the box office in North America was not so satisfactory, but the second "Home Alone" sequel, North American The current version of "Home Alone" has successfully made this series one of the most popular IPs nowadays.

The Peak Tower and Legendary Pictures can be said to have created miracles again.

"Home Alone and Lost in Seattle" is the sequel of "Home Alone", from the original Chinese version to the North American version, but the box office in China is still remarkable.

Although many people criticized "Home Alone: ​​Lost in Seattle" for changing the leading role, and the production team and starring lineup have become Hollywood stars and teams, "Home Alone: ​​Lost in Seattle" still achieved very good results in China. .

Although not as good as the first one, the box office still exceeded 3 million Chinese dollars in the first weekend, and because "Home Alone Lost in Seattle" is the North American version, more Chinese audiences are looking forward to the sequel of the Chinese version of "Home Alone". .

In this regard, someone inside the Ling Xiao Pavilion proposed to split this series into a Huaguo version and a North American version.

But this suggestion was rejected in the end, because if this series is split, then a problem is likely to arise, that is, the lifespan of this series will be greatly shortened.

On the contrary, there is another proposal that has been affirmed by everyone, that is, to combine Chinese and Western styles.

For example, in the third part, the situation of dual protagonists can be used.

For the series "Home Alone", Lin Xiao actually has deeper ideas.

The "Home Alone" series, in Lin Xiao's view, if it was filmed according to the original version, the lifespan would not be too long.

Because to put it bluntly, "Home Alone" and "Death Comes" are actually the same model, but one is used to be funny, while the other is used to kill people.

This kind of film, if you watch too much, it is easy to lose the sense of freshness and expectation.

Therefore, Lin Xiao felt that it was possible to add some cuter and cuter things in the follow-up plot of "Home Alone", such as pets!
Of course, the biggest problem with this is that pet actors are often harder to find than real actors.

But pets are naturally attractive, at least, it won't make the movie unattractive and hopeless.

There is no rush for the third part, after all, strictly speaking, "Home Alone" is only one, Chinese and foreign versions.

So for the time being, it has not reached the situation where the audience will lose their sense of novelty. In the future, Lin Xiao’s idea is to join in, such as small pets such as raccoons, cats, mice, and puppies, so that small pets and little guys can be together. Dealing with thieves adds freshness to the movie.

After "Home Alone and Lost in Seattle" received more than 1 million in three days in the first weekend, it was released for a full week, and the box office reached 1700 million!
Although the decline in the weekend of the second week exceeded 40%, it also won a box office of more than 6800 million in the second weekend.

The estimated box office of "Home Alone and Lost in Seattle" is about 4 million US dollars!
This result definitely has the potential to win the North American box office champion of the year.
