The Best Entertainment Era

With the Oscars over, another awards season in Hollywood has officially come to an end.

The trend of public opinion before and after the award ceremony was completely different. Before the award results were announced, The Departed was recognized as the number one hit, but after the results came out, even the media that thought this film would become a super winner began to comment on The Departed. The Departed Walker won the award that does not live up to its name.

Criticisms like Martin Scorsese really deserves an Oscar for best director and best picture, but The Departed is not his best work are endless.

Like Tiantian Tower and Little Miss Sunshine have become the objects of general sympathy in the media.

As for The Departed winning three of the four major awards, and Relativity Entertainment winning the best picture award for three consecutive years, the media is full of conspiracies and shady scenes.

This is the consistent behavior of the North American media. Even the top newspapers such as the New York Times and Los Angeles Times often only selectively read what they want to see. Objectivity and facts are fundamental to them. It doesn't matter, and it's not news to make things up in order to achieve certain goals.

It's an annual routine as the Oscars end, bashing the big winners and sympathizing with the losers.

The Departed wasn't the first, and it won't be the last.

How much controversy did Forrest Gump and Shawshank Redemption cause after the Oscars ended? Especially the latter, how much sympathy has he won with the tragedy of N many nominations and nothing?

But anyone with a little brain knows that The Shawshank Redemption will never win the favor of Oscars. It would be even more nonsense to beat a film like Forrest Gump to win those heavyweight Oscars. .

Strictly speaking, The Departed does not seem to be particularly good.

However, the results of the Oscars are after all compared by many films, and other competitors are really weak.

In any case, The Departed has won enough attention and a good enough reputation in North America.

After the Oscars, the film appeared in East and Southeast Asian markets one after another.

As Ronan predicted, with the upsurge caused by Infernal Affairs, since the day The Departed Walker was released, the voices of criticism and even abuse have not stopped.

The two films will inevitably be compared by audiences in East and Southeast Asia who have watched Infernal Affairs.

The purely American gangster film The Departed is seriously not in line with the aesthetics of the audience there. Although the word-of-mouth will not collapse, it is far from Infernal Affairs.

For a large proportion of film fans in East and Southeast Asia, it is very surprising and even puzzled that The Departed won several heavyweight Oscar statuettes.

How can such a remake, which can't even compare to the original, win the Oscar for best picture?

It can be said that quite a few viewers can't figure out how the wonderful duel between Liu Tianwang and Dianyan Liang could be replaced by Tom Cruise and Will Smith, two Hollywood superstars who have influence all over the world. It has become a vulgar grass and grass.

But one thing is very obvious, even in East and Southeast Asia, the influence of the Oscar effect is still obvious, even if The Departed has a poor reputation, it still has a good attendance rate in East and Southeast Asia.

This is also a new box office growth point for The Departed.

In the week after the Oscars, the film took in nearly $12 million across a variety of film markets in East and Southeast Asia.

In North America, since the film has been released for nearly three months, it rebounded and expanded as early as when the Oscar nomination list was announced, so the Oscar effect is naturally not as good as the newly released market.

However, the influence of the Oscars cannot be underestimated by anyone, and North America has once again shown a rebound momentum.

Originally, the number of screening theaters and screens in North America dropped to less than 500, but the number rose to nearly 1,500 in the week after the Oscars ceremony, and the weekend box office also soared from less than 3 million US dollars before to nearly 13 million US dollars.

After this round of outbreaks, the North American market of The Departed was basically exhausted.

So far, the North American box office of this film has accumulated a total of 221.22 million U.S. dollars, and its overseas box office has earned 191.78 million U.S. dollars, and it continues to grow with the help of the Oscar effect.

The global box office of more than 400 million US dollars is enough for Relativity Entertainment to recover all the costs invested in The Departed, even if it pays Martin Scorsese, Tom Cruise and Will Smith, as well as the After all the main creators, including Nan, were divided in the later stage, there was still a slight surplus.

But the offline income of the film has just kicked off.

In the first round of TV rights in North America alone, The Departed earned $16.5 million.

As the winner of many heavyweight awards such as best actor, best director and best film, after the DVD is released, Embassy Pictures will also release a special edition of The Departed Oscar commemorative album, which records the public record of the Olympic Games. course.

In this day and age, no matter how good a movie is, it is not as important as how well the disc sells.

With Netflix, a super-advantageous DVD rental and sales platform, Relativity Entertainment's DVD business is quite strong.

When the time is right, Ronan doesn't mind turning the company into a disc seller either.

Which of the boys born in the 1980s who once lived on the other side of the Pacific Ocean has no rich experience in DVD?

When contacting a DVD seller with a certain purpose, but couldn't find a suitable DVD, and couldn't help showing disappointment, the guy who sold the DVD always took out the DVD from the broken sack, the inner pocket of the jacket, and even the crotch just right. Colorful discs empty the pockets of buyers.

So people got to know Mr. Xu, Mr. Ren, Mr. Li, Mr. Shu, Mr. Ye and so on.

That is also a good memory that many people keep in their hearts.

The success of The Departed Walker in the Oscars has all continued to the commercial market and transformed into the actual income of Relativity Entertainment.

An Oscar statuette that cannot bring in commercial income is meaningless to a film company.

In the past three years of Oscar feasts, Relativity Entertainment has all grabbed the most delicious piece of cake.

Ronan will not deliberately publicize, nor will he deliberately keep a low profile. How should he win awards in the next few sessions or continue to win awards.

Sand Sea Entertainment has already approved many projects, and it is impossible for him to give up the benefits that are expected to be obtained.

Entering March, Hollywood has finally calmed down from the hustle and bustle of awards season.

The end of the Oscar Awards Ceremony means the end of another awards season in Hollywood. After the media seized the last lingering heat of the Oscars and made another hype, Hollywood seemed much quieter.

The agents who were running around Burbank and Beverly Hills disappeared, and the business personnel of professional public relations companies entered a dormant period. Stars, big and small, continued to be busy and busy, waiting for the arrival of the next awards season.

The film Slumdog Millionaire prepared by Relativity Entertainment for the next awards season has completed all filming and production, and will start from this year's Cannes film and embark on a long road to the awards.

In addition, Sunshine Girl directed by David Fincher will also try to operate the award season.

But Ronan is very clear that the theme and content of Sunshine Girl are determined, and it is impossible to make much of an Oscar.

At the same time, Christopher Nolan, who finished The Dark Knight, got rid of the promotion of Warner Bros., and once again cooperated with Sandsea Entertainment to officially start preparations for Inception.

Because of Heath Ledger's death and Warner Bros.'s god-making promotion plan, Christopher Nolan had previously dispersed a lot of energy on The Dark Knight. The crew of Inception originally planned to be established in February , had to be delayed until now.

Today, with Warner Bros.'s various god-making propaganda, even if The Dark Knight is far from being released, but under the promotion of some trailers and related character videos, Heath Ledger and the clown are about to become gods.

Ronan has already seen the finished film of The Dark Knight, and he has enough understanding of the quality of the film and the excellence of the clown who is cheating.

There is no doubt that as long as The Dark Knight is released, Heath Ledger and the Joker will surely become gods among movie fans.

As Christopher Nolan moved to a new project, the crew of Inception was officially established.

This sci-fi production is expected to cost as much as 150 million U.S. dollars. Christopher Nolan has already done a lot of preliminary work. It is expected to start shooting in October and complete all shooting and production before September next year.

As a key first-line commercial production project, Embassy Pictures has also given priority to finalize the 2008 holiday schedule for Inception.

In terms of actors, before the Oscars, Tom Cruise had contacted Christopher Nolan several times to discuss this project, and the two parties have reached a consensus on cooperation.

Stars hope to cooperate with excellent directors, and excellent directors also hope to cooperate with celebrities with great appeal. The two sides complement each other and it is easier to achieve a win-win situation.

Tom Cruise will play the leading role in Inception, and for several other key actors, after Christopher Nolan communicated with Ronan in advance, he plans to use British actors.

Ronan has no problem with this. Except for a few cases like the little devil, there are too many actors in Hollywood who are suitable for a certain role.

In addition, Christopher Nolan watched the Juno released last year, and was impressed by the heroine Ellen Page, and planned to let her play one of the most important supporting actresses.

Regarding actors, Ronan has only two requirements for Christopher Nolan: one is not to use box office poisons like Nicole Kidman and Colin Farrell, and the other is to control the actors' pay.

Tom Cruise must have a basic salary of 20 million US dollars plus a certain percentage of post-production share, and all other actors added together, the salary will not be higher than Tom Cruise alone.

Superstars and stars are completely two concepts.

After confirming some actors, Ronan received an invitation from Tom Cruise, who won the Oscar for Best Actor, and decided to hold a small celebration party.
