The box office results for the premiere of "Final Destination 2" came out very quickly.
Perhaps it was because "Final Destination" was so amazing, or perhaps it was because there were no other movies in the United States that could compete with "Final Destination 2", "Final Destination 2" raked in a staggering box office of 14 million US dollars in the United States!
Five million more than Final Destination!
This is an astonishing statistic. When James saw the report, he was stunned for a long time before he realized it...
Fourteen million dollars in the United States alone!
How many are there in total worldwide?
James looked at the global box office data again, and then saw a horrifying global box office of 30 million US dollars!
The global box office is 30 million US dollars, and it is a horror thriller movie!
Even the $30 million box office didn't include a big market like China...
What does this mean?
It means that "Final Destination 2" is a hit!
Even though James had a very good expectation for the box office of Final Destination 2 and thought that this movie would definitely break the category record, but...
After actually seeing this astonishing data, he was still in a trance, with a sense of unreality.
this……
Is this world still normal?
…
"In fact, I have never been optimistic about sequels. I feel that they are ruining classics. For example, when I watched Paranormal Activity for the first time, I was extremely amazed. However, when I watched Paranormal Activity 2, I felt an indescribable boredom. Similarly, after watching The Man From Earth, I also felt that the second part was ruining a classic. In fact, the box office performance of The Man From Earth 2 was indeed unsatisfactory and it was a complete failure... So, after watching Final Destination 2 this time, I was not optimistic about it. However, because of Lu Yuan's film, I still went to see the movie with a supportive attitude. When I actually entered the cinema and saw Final Destination 2, I suddenly realized that this was not a disappointing work, but rather extremely amazing..."
Hollywood professional film critic Carney wrote such an article on the American Film Network. Except for some criticisms of the actors' acting skills, which he felt were flaws, everything else was full of praise...
She even called this movie the most successful horror film produced by "Telekinesis", no doubt about it!
Her film review was reposted by many people, and the number of likes and popularity even exceeded the popularity of the most popular review of the first "Final Destination".
Final Destination 2 has indeed received numerous positive reviews. At the same time, many netizens also said that the shooting techniques of Final Destination 2 are much more mature than the first one. The plot and the rhythm are many times stronger than the first one. It is one of the most successful sequels in recent years. The only regret is that they don’t know how long they have to wait for Final Destination 3. They really want to know whether the so-called "Death God" can be defeated, and what the ending of the hero and heroine will be...
Most of the posts about Final Destination 2 on American Movie Network and Pacific Movie Network are praising it. However, with so many praising posts, it stands to reason that Final Destination 2 should have a very high score, maybe even a 9.0 like a masterpiece. But in fact, Final Destination 2's score is even lower than the first film's total score of 8.3...
How low is it?
7.2!
Yes!
Whether it is the American Movie Network or the Pacific Movie Network, the rating of this movie is as low as 7.2 points, which is almost comparable to some third-rate movies, and this rating has been showing a downward trend...
Seeing this rating...
James was dumbfounded.
Not to mention James, even Lu Yuan himself was dumbfounded.
The comments section is full of praise for this masterpiece, and the ratings section keeps getting lower and lower...
What does this mean?
Is "Final Destination 2" a bad movie?
Something's wrong!
How could it be a bad movie? How could a bad movie have such a crazy box office and such good reviews?
So……
Could it be that something had happened, or that some bad reviews had been maliciously posted?
Go and see why these people gave low scores!
When Lu Yuan saw the negative comments in the rating section, his expression gradually became strange.
"Oh my god, this is a rubbish movie. After watching this movie, I feel completely unwell. I am afraid to drive now..."
"I have to give this movie a low score. Why? After watching this movie, I found that I couldn't sleep when I went home. I was worried that the light would fall on my head all day long!"
"I can only give it one point. Don't ask me why. I am terrified right now... I might have a mental problem..."
“…”
“…”
After Lu Yuan finished reading these negative reviews, before he could say anything, he received another call.
The call was from Olma...
After answering the phone, Lu Yuan looked out the window silently.
expression……
A bit sad.
The coming...
It's finally here.
…
The global total box office of "Final Destination 2" on the second and third days was still very impressive.
Twenty-seven million and twenty-five million respectively!
In three days, the global box office grossed 82 million!
This is an astonishing statistic.
The Guinness Book of Records immediately invalidated the record of the first "Final Destination" and replaced it with "Final Destination 2".
Although the box office of Final Destination 2 is setting horror records in the film industry...
but……
Many people were angry.
However, the former host of the BBC TV station in the United States, Kvia, was very serious. In a program, he said in front of the whole world that "Final Destination 2" was a bad movie. He even openly said that the appearance of "Final Destination 2" was a huge irony to the United States. It was a huge, anti-human hypocritical movie that sold panic. It should not exist in this world and should be banned...
Kvia's remarks caused a huge stir in the American media. Subsequently, some American automobile brand companies stood up and agreed with Kvia's words, saying that Lu Yuan was a scourge, a big villain who harmed the American capital collective for no reason and had evil intentions!
These people really hated Lu Yuan so much that they wanted to slap him in the face!
Why?
Final Destination has a strong influence, and once affected the aviation industry in the United States. However, it has brought a small spring to the automobile transportation industry...
But "Final Destination 2" directly froze this little spring into winter.
And it is...
Large-scale continuous winter.
And all this...
It only took a few months!
The influence of "Final Destination 2" is really huge!
After the series of car crashes on the road, a large number of people gave up traveling by car, and the sales of some car brands dropped to a freezing point, which was even more unacceptable than the financial crisis more than ten years ago.
According to incomplete statistics!
Three days after the release of "Final Destination 2", the U.S. auto industry suffered direct losses of nearly $1 billion, an average of $300 million per day!
certainly……
Dental clinics across the United States also suffered losses well over $100 million!
The patients who had scheduled an appointment to see the dentist all said that they had something to do here or there. In short...
All of them are not coming.
Even patients with toothaches found that their toothaches disappeared after watching "Final Destination 2".
In addition, the orders for the elevator industry have suddenly become frozen in the past two days. Some private villas are even considering installing stairs instead of elevators...
At the entrance of some buildings, people usually squeeze into the elevator, but now...
The elevator was suddenly empty and everyone was taking the stairs!
Of course, more continuous economic losses are still continuing, and the airlines that had originally returned to normal are becoming deserted again...
After watching Final Destination 2, everyone thought of Final Destination 1 again...
Um……
It seems that flying is still unsafe!
Forget it, forget it, I won’t take the plane. Saving my life is more important. Saving my life is more important.
…
"Mr. Lu Yuan, do you understand?"
"I see."
"oh……"
“…”
Four days later.
Lu Yuan, who was reading the script on the set of "The Last Days on Earth", received another call from Olma.
During this period, Olma called Lu Yuan almost every day.
The content of the call was simple...
That is how much the U.S. economy lost yesterday, and how much the U.S. economy lost today…
After four days, Lu Yuan listened in a daze as the US economic losses soared to 5 billion US dollars. Moreover, judging by the popularity of Final Destination 2, these 5 billion US dollars were just the beginning...
After this wave.
The total US economy is estimated to lose $10 billion!
Tsk tsk!
Ten billion!
This is a pretty terrifying statistic!
Final Destination 2 has such a huge influence, so wouldn’t it be great if our own Titanic could also be a hit…
Will the US shipping industry also be paralyzed?
The reason Olma called Lu Yuan was just to complain.
He couldn't stop broadcasting "Final Destination 2" because of such a huge financial loss.
after all……
The people at the Motion Picture Association of America are not vegetarians, they also have enormous power!
Even though Hollywood hates Lu Yuan very much, the old men in the American Film Association always stand on Lu Yuan's side...
“This is the influence of our American movies!”
"Although Lu Yuan is Chinese, this Final Destination 2 is a Hollywood movie, an American movie, and the director is also an American director!"
“No one is allowed to do anything about Final Destination 2!”
"It must be released normally, because it is the history of horror films, a milestone in horror films!"
“…”
Look!
The old men's attitude was so annoyed that they almost defended him to death. They even followed Kvia and started to fight him, calling him a drug addict who was addicted to drugs...
"Final Destination 2" is in this state, steadily breaking box office records all the way...
…
February 25th.
"Ah? What? What did you say? Aren't we excluded by all American car companies?"
“…”
“James? Tell me what’s going on? Everyone is holding money and buying advertising space for Final Destination 3 from us? Wait, the airlines are here too?”
“…”
