Everest


1) A few key pints i learned from Charles Gants analysis of everest are that it made 3.16 million in the opening of the film , which compared to the few climbing disaster films out there did the best on record. another key point is that it was eighth number one hit for universal this year. one more point that i learned was that paramount and sony had 4 no.1s between them.

2) Charles Gant analyses box office hits in the uk alone. often he has a positive view on them and very rarely had something bad to say. for example one of his recent analogises of a box office hit was of paper towns which he decried to be a "paper towns builds a flimsy number one position at the uk box office." From many of his articles we can gather the sense that he believes that working title are always on top and produce the best of the best as he decried working title as the "winners". http://www.theguardian.com/profile/charles-gant

3) Gant makes many useful points throughout all his reviews on box office hits. all his reviews also have many things in common;
Minions make millions, http://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/jun/30/uk-box-office-minions-makes-millions-jurassic-world-biggest-hit-since-skyfall - in this column want again states the winner: Minions' and then 'second place : Jurassic world'. Again (in comparison to the everest article) the winner is working title once again and the warp tile is 'second'. warp titles never have as much money to put into the film production therefore are never going to get as good as a box office in comparison to the working titles who have m,amy famous actors.
