The curse of zero revenue haunts Bayoumi Fouad's "bag" and "Second" Dina El-Sherbiny
It is normal to talk about movie revenues and their rise, or sometimes their decline, in Egyptian theaters, according to crises and changing circumstances and audience turnout, but it is not normal to hear a new reformer of box office revenues, which is zero revenues. This is what actually happened and formed a big question mark, and fear among filmmakers.
The movie "The Bag" by Bayoumi Fouad was an unprecedented disappointment for another movie, as it achieved zero revenues in one of its shows. He also raised the movie "For Rent" from Egyptian theaters after achieving weak revenues, which in its last shows amounted to about 2000 pounds, while "unfortunately" achieved zero revenues in very many theaters.
In shocking news, the film achieved, throughout its screening period, a total revenue of about 125 thousand pounds, although this figure cannot be commensurate with the stardom of its hero, the great artist Khaled El-Sawy, and actress Sherry Adel, but many problems occurred between the producing company and El-Sawy during filming and work stopped several times. before that light.
One second
. As for the movie “One Second”, we have El-Sherbiny, since the beginning of its release, has frustrated the industry, as it was at the bottom of the box office list all the time and failed to compete and achieved zero revenues in some Egyptian cinemas, and its revenues reached about 800 pounds.
Producer Hisham Abdel-Khaleq, Vice President of the Chamber of Cinema Industry, confirmed to «Emarat Al-Youm» that there are problems facing some films in some periods, and this is something that is known all over the world, and added that before Eid Al-Fitr and the ban, the revenues were good and some films achieved high revenues, such as a movie Waqft Rijla, which achieved 25 million pounds, then revenues weakened sharply due to the partial ban, but some films were not bad in terms of financial success, such as Ahmed Notre Dame by Ramez Jalal and Dido by Karim Fahmy
. Abdel Khaleq explained that there is generally no such thing as “zero” revenues for any A movie in theaters, even if it achieved zero revenues in some theaters and no one entered it, but this does not mean that it achieved in the general total a beeping, but there is a cinematic calculation that summarizes that achieving revenues of 50 thousand pounds for a movie at the level of the Republic means zero revenues
Abdel-Khaleq said with the screening of the film “Not Me” by Tamer Hosni, then “Some do not go to the authorized twice,” by Karim Abdel Aziz, and the entry of new films in the cinema race in theaters, the occupancy rate of cinemas was raised to 70%, which will definitely cause a boom in revenues.
