Hollywood: Great Directors Starting with Saw

Being the boss for so long, the means Kevin should have are not bad at all.

"Yes!"

From Kevin's tone, Dawson understood the importance of this matter.

Immediately agreed.

"After the acquisition, give me a call."

Dawson nodded.

Keep this in mind.

The rest of the work was arranged.

Kevin went on to enjoy the holiday.

····

On the other side, the Titanic continues to be released.

When signing a contract with the theater, it generally changes every week, that is to say, even if the theater party wants to take the Titanic off the line, it will take at least a week to wait.

This is also to prevent the box office of some films, through word-of-mouth fermentation, so that the box office on the first day is not good, and the subsequent outbreak occurs.

Generally speaking, if a week is lukewarm box office.

Then this movie has no follow-up potential.

··

Foxne.

The Titanic, the next day's data, was delivered.

"Six million six million dollars?"

The next day's data is still like this.

This is difficult for both Fox and Paramount to accept.

To do this, they make joint decisions.

Stop all the publicity, and then, as long as it can be released.

Back a little book, is a little book.

At present, the loss of the Titanic is a foregone conclusion.

They had to look for other projects to make up for the huge shortfall.

Fortunately, Fox has the dividends of The Matrix, although it is exchanged for the copyright of the comic adaptation, but Fox is not losing money after all.

It's Paramount.

There is no such project as The Matrix, and now it is still eating the old book of Mission Impossible.

This wave, for Paramount, is really a big injury, at this time, Paramount is already pondering the new movie project of Mission Impossible III.

At a time when everyone lost faith in the Titanic.

People are turning their attention to other areas.

The Titanic was released in the movie tepidly.

More than a month passed.

Kevin is in Hogwarts, filming Harry Potter.

The company is also functioning normally.

Christmas is over.

Various blockbusters have been released.

Most of the films that appeared in the cinema at this time were small productions.

The Titanic, in the Christmas schedule, was hit by various blockbusters, and could only be stooped to the end, but when this other blockbuster was already released.

actually managed to win the first place at the box office.

This is something that many people did not expect, you must know that after a month and a half of release, there are really not many movies that can still be the same as the box office on the first day.

The box office trend of the Titanic is really unexpected.

··········

Fox.

"President Davis, the box office of the Titanic is still increasing, and compared to the box office at the time of the premiere, it is still a little higher, and it still has a box office of about five million dollars a day."

Marvin Davis, who was thinking about a new project and completely gave up paying attention to the Titanic, was stunned for a moment.

Only then asked:

"The Titanic hasn't come off the line yet?" It's been a month and a half.

The executive who reported nodded and relayed the original words

of the theater side: "The overall attendance rate of the movie, okay, the theater side said, they can still make a profit now, and there are no blockbusters released recently, they will always maintain a certain arrangement for the Titanic, and wait until the box office falls to one or two million dollars before considering the matter of going offline."

Davis nodded.

As long as the attendance rate can cover the cost of screening, and there is no blockbuster squeeze, for Fox, it is natural that the longer the release, the better.

"How much box office has the Titanic received now?"

"There are already 140 million."

Davis was stunned again.

"Then, if you can maintain this situation and continue to release it for two months, won't you be able to return to the book?"

"The president is right."

Davis, only then did he realize that the Titanic didn't seem to be a money-loser?

This trend is really strange.

But it's all here, and it's too late to add publicity fees.

However, you can also choose to release it overseas to expand your revenue.

Previously, because the box office was too low, they did not plan to let the Titanic be released in the world.

You must know that the cost of overseas screening is much higher than that of domestic screening in the United States.

If in the United States, a box office of 100 million dollars, these big film companies can get close to half of the profits.

So overseas, 100 million US dollars, can get 20 million US dollars is a lot.

If the box office is too low, it may not even be enough to cover the cost.

It's different now.

The special trend of the Titanic made Davis realize that the film was profitable.

He immediately went to Paramount and discussed with the president of Paramount.

The decision to push the Titanic to the world was made together.

····

On the other hand, Leonardo's current mood is very complicated.

The peculiar trend of the Titanic made him, the male protagonist, not only did not become famous in one fell swoop, but also felt a little unplayable.

That bad mood was completely fulfilled.

Now, he can't get any good appointments at all.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but envy his friend, Tobey Maguire.

Who would have thought that a big production with an investment of 200 million US dollars would not bring the benefits to the male protagonist as a blockbuster with tens of millions of dollars.

Judging from the trend of the Titanic, it is estimated that the follow-up will not lose money and can make money, but this special trend is actually not of much benefit to him, the male protagonist.

Because this is a typical directorial film.

Not very popular.

Unlike Steve Kevin's movies that always make people superstars in one fell swoop, James Cameron's movies, as everyone knows, are credited to the director.

Actors, in fact, are not so important.

It's the same for anyone.

Although in the future, Leonardo DiCaprio, because of the Titanic, will be well known by mainland netizens.

But in the United States, in fact, the Titanic, in addition to adding a classic role to him, does not have much benefit.

The biggest proof is that his next film will not be released until 2000.

There was a gap of more than a year and a half during this period, and the movie he chose called The Beach was not a big production.

Leonardo, suddenly the idea of wanting to work with Steve Kevin.
