Post-shadow Development Plan

It's a mother's style to have milk in the theaters, and it will become extra obvious every summer.

Only two films of the Jiufeng series will be released this summer, and both films are works of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

One is "Iron Man 5," which was released in early May, and the other is "Thor" in August.

At the end of April, the theater chain had already submitted the feedback to Jiufeng Entertainment.

As a sequel to a popular movie, "Iron Man 2" is naturally highly anticipated by theaters.

This movie will be released on May 5, and will be officially released in North America with about 8 theaters!

However, there is one movie that will be released on a large scale earlier than "Iron Man 2", and this movie is the movie "Dragon Ball: Evolution" of the same name adapted from a well-known comic.

"There is no way, Mr Murdoch."

Sitting on the sofa in front of the desk, Jim Ganopoulos looked at the little Murdoch opposite and said: "I have called AMC and Emperor Entertainment's executives more than once. Looking at the scale of the premiere of "Dragon Ball" There can only be around 2700 theaters.”

Little Murdoch's face was a little gloomy.

Since the night of Oscar, he has been working hard to compete against Jiufeng in the summer vacation.

Although "Iron Man 2" is not the work of the man Kiryu Nanaya, it is also a big production that Jiufeng invested hundreds of millions of dollars.

If he can overwhelm the opponent, Little Murdoch believes that he can extinguish the opponent's arrogance.

As for the decisive battle with that man, Murdoch Jr. decided to hand it over to James Cameron.

only……

It's just that Little Murdoch didn't expect that before the film was released, he would lose at the starting line!

The gap between the opening theaters of about 800 theaters does not bring about a gap of 01:30 in the box office.

During his time at Fox, Murdoch Jr. also learned a lot about how commercial films operate.

He is very clear that in a highly competitive schedule like summer, the box office in the first week can determine the life or death of a movie.

The number of opening theaters in the first round has established the upper limit of the movie box office.

"Is there really no other way?"

Little Murdoch asked with a forced smile on the corner of his mouth.

Jim Ganopoulos shook his head.

"It can't be helped. The theaters are not optimistic about the movies adapted from Japanese manga."

"We've done localization!" Little Murdoch clenched his fists and said, "Dragon Ball is already a standard American youth movie!"

Jim didn't speak.

In theory, there is nothing wrong with this change.

It's as if food from other countries needs to be adjusted in taste after it enters the United States.

When adapting works from other countries, localization must be done.

But whether this modification can satisfy the audience is a question mark.

Judging from the situation of the movie preview, most of the audience did not buy it very much.

However, these audiences are all fans of comics, and it is reasonable for them to be unable to accept such drastic changes because of the influence of the original.

It was different from Qiye's previous life.

Because of his involvement, Fox has put more effort into "Dragon Ball" than in his previous life.

In the "Dragon Ball" in the previous life, because Fox didn't pay attention to it at all, the entire project management was extremely chaotic.

The movie switches back and forth between various styles, which makes people feel confused.

In this life, because Fox wants to use "Dragon Ball" to collide with Jiufeng's "Iron Man 2".

Therefore, Qiye spent a lot of thought on project management than in his previous life.

Not only did more money be invested, but Simon Kinberg was also specially assigned to be the producer.

Simon Kinberg has said before that he is Fox's exclusive lick dog.

And because he licked Fox so well, his status in Fox rose step by step.

He was only a screenwriter when "X-Men 3", but now he is working as a producer on Fox's film project.

Although Simon Kinberg is famous for licking dogs, he still has a little ability.

In the new era of "X-Men" in the future, this guy basically takes on the dual duties of screenwriter and producer.

Except for "Dark Phoenix" directed by him himself, other films have achieved good commercial results.

It can be seen that this screenwriter is not an idiot.

It can be seen from all aspects that Fox has achieved the ultimate in "Dragon Ball" in terms of project operation.

It's just that although Fox has spent energy on the "Dragon Ball" project, it has not spent it in the right place.

In fact, if it is really adapted according to the script of "Dragon Ball Z", even if the special effects are not good, the audience will still be able to accept it.

But a high school youth movie is sold as a special effects movie...
