Snow fluttered in the sky and fell on the pedestrian faces of the streets, feeling icy and cold. On the tenth day of 2007, New York City finally ushered in the first snow of this winter, the latest in 129 years A snow.
The 2006 North American total box office rankings of distributors have naturally been settled. The 2005 championship flame movie still performed miraculously. 9 new films were released without failure. On the contrary, the number of box office figures is amazing. People envy, FF continues to carry the banner of independent film companies!
Last year, 155 film companies (+18) released a total of 610 films (+59) in theaters. It must be said that the good market of last year attracted more investors to enter the film market, although it seems not as magnificent as last year. The total box office in North America is on the rise, reaching 9.72 billion.
Among them, Bullz-Eye produced the ungraded comedy "Points" in a theater and received $ 783 at the box office, becoming the double bottom of the year. The average price in 2006 was 6.55 US dollars, and an average of 119.54 people watched "In front of the big screen. "Points", one of them was dissatisfied; a movie that made a famous movie with "My Grand Greek Wedding" a few years ago, this year's crazy pilot released a film, but unfortunately no one is a baby, they account for a total of 0.1% of the shares, of which the highest box office It is the 3.12 million documentary "Word Game".

Department, Broadway (Disney) Department, Global Department, Paramount Department, Lions Gate Department, Weinstein Department, MGM United Department, New Line Department, Flame Department.

Although the annual championship threw away and became the runner-up, the flame actually maintained its peak level in 2005, ranking second in terms of circulation among the mainstream companies.
