The Best Entertainment Era
Chapter 1104: Stepmother Alliance
The success of a movie often brings a series of chain reactions in the follow-up, which is not uncommon in Hollywood.
For example, the success of Avatar has led to a wave of 3D craze all over the world, which is reflected in the Hollywood industry circle. In the past month or so, there have been a total of nearly two Ten major 3D movie projects are either under planning or have already been put on the agenda.
Cinema chain companies are also deeply affected. Newly launched cinemas have started to build 3D cinema halls. After all, 3D ticket prices are higher.
After the Independence Day schedule, the global box office of Avatar surpassed Titanic in one fell swoop, becoming the global box office champion. time.
The statistics are very clear. Simply counting the number of viewers after the two films were screened for more than a month, Titanic beats Avatar.
However, the box office of the latter has surpassed the former by a large margin.
What is the reason, theater companies feel the most direct! It is nothing more than the high ticket price brought by 3D and IMX3D.
The popularity of Avatar has made the theater companies that are troubled by the attendance rate, the North American film market where the total number of audiences is decreasing every year, and the large and medium-sized Hollywood film companies as producers and distributors, as if they have seen the future of movies.
In the short term, there is indeed a market for 3D movies.
That's enough for Hollywood companies and theater companies.
In those emerging markets, because theaters are built from scratch, basically the newly built theaters are mainly 3D theaters.
The same is true for new theaters in North America, where the number of 3D and IMAX theaters that have been pushed into construction plans has skyrocketed.
The upsurge in the 3D market brought about by Avatar and Alice in Wonderland is tangible and has already driven changes in the entire industry.
In the future, audiences all over the world will see countless 3D movies with 3D effects only in subtitles.
Regardless of whether it is suitable or not, whether it is shot with 3D technology or not, it must be converted into a 3D movie in post-production.
After all, this will increase the ticket price by a large amount.
Alice in Wonderland sold well at the box office in the first weekend, and the market situation is very good. To some extent, it also brought a certain degree of enthusiasm to live-action fairy tale movies.
Embassy Pictures put the advertising film of Beauty and the Beast on Alice in Wonderland\
,"The highly restored Bella and the theme song, with the help of the latter's popularity, attracted a lot of attention.
Especially Bella, inspired the feelings of countless people.
The Theory of Relativity Entertainment even warmed up for the film released during the holidays in advance, and promoted it on the media and the Internet, calling this film a love epic that does not judge people by their appearance, and that love can drive out all evil.
The publicity is brilliant, but the movie is still old wine in new bottles.
In terms of other live-action fairy tale movies, Cinderella has already been approved, and filming will begin at the end of this year at the earliest.
In addition, the new Sleeping Beauty movie stand-in schedule, after getting the first draft script, Angelina Jolie has agreed to play Sleeping Beauty's fairy godmother.
Cinderella's stepmother, Relativity Entertainment has invited Cate Blanchett.
If nothing else, Relativity Entertainment's fairy tale live-action movie will form a powerful stepmother alliance.
Ronan still has the impression that Disney's stepmothers used to hold tea parties for future mothers in order to promote live-action movies.
By mid-July, both Cate Blanchett and Angelina Jolie had signed acting contracts with Shahai Entertainment.
As for the male and female protagonists and the like, all new actors will be used.
In Hollywood, actors are never a scarce resource.
Alice in Wonderland spent its third weekend in North American theaters, and the North American box office easily exceeded 300 million US dollars.
With the support of the 3D boom, the global box office easily reached 552.14 million US dollars.
Although the production of Alice in Wonderland is very good, and the visual effect is far better than that of the previous film, but such an excellent box office performance, the impulsive 3D consumption in the movie market is also a crucial factor.
The North American box office of Avatar exceeded 700 million U.S. dollars, surpassing Titanic and officially becoming the North American box office champion.
In terms of global box office, Avatar has also become the first movie in history to have a global box office of more than 2 billion U.S. dollars before Titanic has been converted into a 3D re-screening.
There is no doubt that Relativity Entertainment has made a lot of money from this movie alone.
Embassy Pictures collected various data and made estimates, including online and offline box office and DVD revenues. Within this year alone, Avatar will bring about 1.5 billion U.S. dollars in profits to Relativity Entertainment.
Then there is Fast and Furious 4.
After a month of screenings, the North American box office has accumulated a total of 232.68 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office is close to 500 million U.S. dollars.
The Fast and Furious series has begun to show the market demeanor of a first-line super production.
At the same time, Pixar's animated feature film Wall-E was also released in North America, with a box office of 63.01 million U.S. dollars in its opening weekend.
Moreover, Robot Wall-E was so popular that it was almost blown by the media as the best animated movie ever.
Embassy Pictures now has a wealth of experience in distributing animated feature films, and will not simply be confused by word of mouth. According to the actual market situation, the global box office of Wall-E will have enough luck to recover all the investment.
In addition, the film's response in the surrounding market was mediocre, and the sales of the products I had with Wally were not very good.
But one thing is certain, next year's Oscar for Best Animated Feature Film has already been announced ahead of schedule.
…………
The ship looks imposing.
In the port of Malibu, Ronan stood on a huge ship and said to James Cameron next to him: It looks much bigger than the one in previous years.
This is the top deck, looking at the sea, the sea and the sky are endless, James Cameron likes this environment the most, and briefly introduced: This is a scientific research ship that was launched last year. It has the world's latest Technology and equipment, and the best deep-water submersibles.
Pointing to the boom on the foredeck below, he said, Look, those round ones are.
The silver-white submersible doesn't look too big. There are technicians doing pre-departure inspections. Ronan looked at it for a while and said, It's very sci-fi.
James Cameron said: The rent is also very expensive. Fortunately, Sony Electronics is sponsoring it.
Over the years, he has been cooperating with Sony Electronics, and many new photographic technology and equipment patents are in the hands of the two companies.
Ronan looked at the submersibles and asked, You don't really want to go down the Mariana Trench yourself?
Of course. James Cameron issued another invitation: Let's go together, the seabed of exaggeration is a man's romance.
Ronan leaned on the railing with both hands: I heard that there are many terrifying monsters living in the deep sea, such as truck-sized octopuses. If you can see them, take a few photos and come back.
James Cameron said solemnly: I went to the deep sea for scientific research to shoot a documentary, and you are trying to upload a horror movie forcibly.
Ronan couldn't help laughing, looked at the time, and said, James, I wish you good luck, I will visit you sometime.
James Cameron also laughed: Don't worry, I won't be eaten by a giant monster in the deep sea.
The two chatted about the sequel of Avatar. The second part will not be really put on the agenda until James Cameron completes the Mariana Trench expedition at the earliest.
In other words, fans of Avatar or James Cameron, if they still want to see the sequel, can only hope that the great director will not encounter the monster of the deep sea.
The ship will set off soon, passing through Hawaii and headed for the South Pacific Ocean. Ronan didn't stay long, so he said goodbye and left, and boarded the car at the pier.
He checked that it was still early, and did not return to Century City. He sent David to the Hughes Aircraft Factory, where The Avengers was being filmed, and it had reached the final stage.
The atmosphere of the director is heavy, and the six veterans of the Avengers have assembled to tell the world through practical actions what a superhero should look like!
Every hero has a journey and a beginning: why we fall, so we learn to get back up; every hero has an end: it doesn't matter who you are, it matters what you do for.
Well, here we go, this is the story of Christopher Nolan's set that Ronan visited a few days ago.
The Dark Knight Rises has also begun preparations, but it has nothing to do with Relativity Entertainment.
While Joss Whedon let the crew rest, Ronan went to chat with him for a while.
All the exterior scenes have been filmed. Joss Whedon briefly told Ronan about the progress: The crew will be fully transferred to post-production next month, and it will be completed in February next year. I hope this time there will be a Good result.
Ronan nodded gently: Yes. The single-player movie has been fully warmed up, and The Avengers will become the most commercially successful superhero movie.
Regarding Ronan's words, Joss Whedon is very confident: I hope the global box office can reach a billion dollars.
Ronan smiled, and didn't say much. The global box office of one billion US dollars is enough to make The Avengers pay back through the box office.
The production cost of this superhero blockbuster is as high as 200 million U.S. dollars, and the global publicity and distribution expenses will be around 150 million U.S. dollars.
Seeing Ronan, the six actors also came over to say hello at their own time.
Ronan also chatted with them more or less.
Until the completion of Purple Sweet Potato Essence, the six veterans of Avengers are the absolute core of the entire team, and they will be closely tied to Relativity Entertainment and Marvel Entertainment for the next ten years.
When Ronan was about to leave, Joss Whedon took advantage of the break to talk about another thing: I have a friend who has a realistic sci-fi project in his hand, and he has been planning it since 2006. Yes, because the script and story are too simple, it has been ignored, but I think this project is good and valuable. Ronan, can you make time to meet him?
Joss Whedon is a more reliable person. Ronan just thought about it for a while and said, Let him come to my office tomorrow.
