Some of the top films of the year in Brazil are no surprise: Iron Man 3($47.8M), Despicable Me 2 ($35.6M), Thor: The Dark World ($26.5M)and Fast & Furious 6 ($23.2M). No one expected, however, that Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters would finish the year as the 4th film of 2013.The Paramount release flopped in North America with a $55.7 million take, but found life overseas that would bump Hansel and Gretel’s global cume to $226.3 million. Brazil is responsible for slightly over 10% of the film’s global gross, contributing $23.6 million to its final tally since its January debut.
今年在巴西,一些電影問鼎最高票房并不奇怪:《鋼鐵俠3》(4780萬美元)、《卑鄙的我2》(3560萬美元)、《雷神2:黑暗世界》(2650萬美元)以及《速度與激情6》(2320萬美元)。然而,沒人預料到,《韓賽爾與格雷特:女巫獵人》以2013年高居第4名的票房而告終。這部派拉蒙的電影在北美發行以失敗告終僅拿下5570萬美元,但在海外市場走紅,《韓賽爾與格雷特:女巫獵人》全球入賬2.263億美元,而巴西就占據影片全球總票房的10%以上,自其1月(2013年)登場以來為最終收入貢獻2360萬美元。
Domestic comedies showed off their box office muscle in Brazil this year.De Pernas Pro Ar 2 extended its $3.1 million bow during the 2012 Holiday season into the current year, finishing its run with a $24.6 million cume. Vai Que Da Certo continued the domestic hot streak at the box office with a $14.4 million take after opening in late March. Minha Mae é uma Peça finished the year as the highest- grossing Brazilian film with a $21.9 million run despite opening amidst heavy social protests in the country’s major cities while Brazil hosted the biggest international soccer tournament of the year. The box office resiliency is a hopeful sign for 2014 and 2016 releases in Brazil,which will have to compete for local attention as the country hosts the World Cup and Olympics, respectively.
巴西今年(2013年)展現了國產喜劇的魅力。《長腿美女2》挾310萬美元的開局強勢從2012年賀歲檔沖入今年新年,最后累積入賬2460萬美元。《Vai Que Da Certo》從三月下旬上映后票房持續表現火爆,并拿下1440萬美元。《Minha Maeé uma Peça》成為今年巴西最賣座電影,盡管影片上映時撞上全國各大城市嚴重的群眾抗議活動,而且巴西還舉辦了今年最大的國際足球錦標賽。巴西票房的這種彈性對2014年和2016年放映的電影是個好跡象,屆時巴西將分別舉行世界杯和奧運會,電影需要跟他們來爭奪本地的關注。
Three other of the year’s biggest hits screened during Brazil’s turbulent June,further proving that the protests surrounding sporting events have minimal interference with box office business. The Hangover Part III opened on May 30 to a $4.1 million bow and went on to gross $16.7M; Monsters University defeated Minha Mae é uma Peça on their June 21 debut with a $3.9 million tally before falling behind to the domestic comedy with a $16.5 million cume; and World War Z opened to a $3.4 million bow only days before the national soccer team celebrated the Confederations Cup title. World War Z would also celebrate at the end of its run with a $15 million tally.
在巴西動蕩的六月期間,另外三部電影成為今年最賣座影片逆襲銀幕,進一步證明圍繞體育事件的抗議活動對票房業務干擾極其有限《宿醉3》于5月30日上映從410萬美元增長到1670萬美元;《怪物大學》擊敗《Minha Maeé uma Peça》,從6月21日首映入賬390萬美元,之后落后于這部國產喜劇最終累計16.5美元;《末日之戰》在國家足球隊慶祝聯合會杯冠軍前幾天首映并獲得340萬美元。《末日之戰》也將慶祝收尾累積的1500萬美元票房。
