Transformers 2’ is China’s biggest hit ever

$59 million box office is enough to eclipse ‘Titanic’ record

HONG KONG – The “Transformers” sequel has become China’s biggest box office hit ever by earning 400 million Chinese yuan ($59 million), a publicist for the country’s leading state-run film company said Friday.

“Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” surpassed the 11-year-old record of 360 million yuan set by “Titanic,” spokesman Weng Li at the China Film Group, one of the country’s two film importers, told The Associated Press. “Titanic” made

about $43 million based on exchange rates in 1998, the year it was released.

Weng said the “Transformers” sequel, released June 24, received a wide release on several thousand screens. China had about 4,100 screens by the end of 2008. The first “Transformers” installment raked in 280 million yuan in 2007.

“This is a tremendous achievement for the market in China and clearly shows that there is a strong growing demand for international films,” said Mike Ellis, Asia-Pacific managing director of the Hollywood trade organization, Motion Picture Association of America.

The group wants China to relax its movie import quota of allowing in just 20 foreign blockbusters a year, aimed at boosting its domestic industry.

Weng said both installments of John Woo’s two-part Chinese historical epic “Red Cliff” earned 300 million yuan ($44 million) this year and last, as did Chinese director Feng Xiaogang’s 2008 romantic comedy “If You Are the One.”

“Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen,” a science fiction movie, was apparently slightly censored. In the film’s opening sequence, the Autobots and Decepticons battle in an industrial part of Shanghai, but when a U.S. military commander refers to the city, the word “Shanghai” is muffled.

Chinese censors are sensitive to portrayals of their country in foreign movies.

The “Transformers” record also highlights the earning potential of Hollywood films in China. But with piracy a lingering problem and moviegoing largely the habit of wealthier urbanites, the growing Chinese box office revenues remain small compared to the U.S.

The “Transformers” sequel earned $62 million on its opening day in the U.S. alone. The $200 million production has grossed $348 million in the U.S. and $380 million outside the country, according to the box office tracking Web site Box Office Mojo.

Chinese box office revenues totaled 4.3 billion yuan ($630 million) in 2008, compared to $9.8 billion in the U.S. in the same year.

Tags: , ,

Harry Potter’s $22 million in earnings at midnight showings may be the biggest of all time, but the boy wizard’s total opening day harry-potter-poster-71box office is less record breaking. It’s only the fourth biggest of all time.

ERC reports that harry potter and the half blood prince earned a whopping $58 million on Wednesday, its opening day. It’s the fourth biggest single-day gross of all time, bested only by Spider-Man 3 with $59 million, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen with $62 million, and the all time champ The Dark Knight with $67 million.

That means that after earning that $22 million in midnight showings, fans showed up and handed over $36 million more to Daniel Radcliffe and his friends. Expect equally big numbers over this weekend. Transformers finally has some box office competition.

Tags: , , , , , ,

After Bella recovers from the vampire attack that almost claimed her life, she looks to celebrate her birthday with Edward and his The-Twilight-Saga-New-Moonfamily. However, a minor accident during the festivities results in Bella’s blood being shed, a sight that proves too intense for the Cullens, who decide to leave the town of Forks, Washington for Bella and Edward’s sake. Initially heartbroken, Bella finds a form of comfort in reckless living, as well as an even-closer friendship with Jacob Black. Danger in different forms awaits.

At Bella’s 18th birthday party at the Cullens’ house, she gets a paper cut, and Jasper attempts to attack her. The Cullens decide it would be better for Bella’s safety if they left, so they get away from Forks, leaving Bella heartbroken. She finds solace in family friend Jacob Black, who incidentally is a werewolf. But before Edward left, he made Bella promise she wouldn’t do anything reckless or stupid but, as he’d already broken his promise to ‘be there for as long as she wanted him’, she decides to break her promise. She goes cliff-diving, which makes Edward think she has killed herself, although it was purely for recreational purposes. So Edward travels to Italy, to provoke the Volturi so they will kill him. Alice finds Bella, and they begin a race to the Italian city of Volterra to stop him.

Harry Potter and the half blood prince review

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

In Half-Blood Prince, Harry Potter
(Daniel Radcliffe), Hermione Granger (Emma Watson) and Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint) are best pals. Harry’s biggest challenge in the school is a secret assignment by Hogwarts headmaster Albus Dumbledore (Michael Gambon). Harry kinopoiskru-harry-potter-the-half-blood-prince-723737suspects that new dangers may lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is more intent upon preparing him for the final battle with Lord Voldemort (who surprisingly doesn’t appear in the entire movie). Dumbledore needs Harry to help him uncover a vital key to unlocking Voldemort’s defences critical information known only to Hogwarts’ former Potions Professor, Horace Slughorn (Jim Broadbent).

With that in mind, Dumbledore manipulates his old colleague Professor Slughorn into returning to his previous post with promises of more money and the chance to teach Harry. Meanwhile, the students are under attack from a very different adversary as adolescent hormones rage across the ramparts. Harry’s long friendship with Ginny Weasley (Bonnie Wright) is growing into something deeper, but standing in the way is Ginny’s boyfriend and her big brother Ron.

But Ron’s has his won romantic entanglements with Lavender Brown (Jessie Cave) lavishing her affections on him. This leaves leaving Hermione simmering with jealousy yet determined not to show her feelings. And then a box of love potion-laced chocolates ends up in the wrong hands and changes everything. As romance blossoms, one student remains aloof with far more important matters on his mind. He is determined to make his mark, albeit a dark one. Love is in the air, but tragedy lies ahead and Hogwarts may never be the same again.

harry-potter-and-the-half-blood-prince-20080320101218658_640wThe movie acts as a great platform for the Radcliffe, Watson and Grint to display their maturing acting skills and they do not disappoint the audience. Whether their acting careers flourish after “Harry Potter” or not, they will leave behind one of the most successful series of films man has ever seen. Michael Gambon Jim Broadben and Bonnie wright play their roles well in the movie.

The movie drags a bit toward the end but screenwriter Steve Kloves generally keeps the plot rolling. He also adds a new scenes such as the opening attack on London’s Millennium Bridge. At 153 minutes the movie seems a shade longer perhaps a 10 minute editing would have made it look better. Harry Potter has always set high standards when it has come visual-effects and Half Blood Price in no exception in this regard.

half-blood-prince_lDavid Yates who took over the job of helming with Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix directs Half Blood Prince in his deepening confidence and comfort. He has lived up to the high standards set by Chris Columbus, Alfonso Cuaron and Mike Newell in the first four movies. Yates remarkable controls the action sequences well and gives his stars much needed breathing space between the action sequences.

In Half-Blood Prince Yates stays true to the JK Rowling’s although he infuses a certain amount of freshness and energy that makes it seem like a new stuff rather than the screen adoption of a Novel. Yates will also helm the the two-part adaptation of the seventh and final book Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows but with Half Blood Prince he has set a grand finale. It is a must watch for all the Harry Potter fans and even for those who have missed the previous five editions.
