The Best Entertainment Era

Entering November, the holiday schedules of the North American film market kicked off, and the market competition became extremely fierce, especially the two official holiday schedules in November.

First came the Veterans Day holiday. New Line Films’ holiday custom film “Christmas Elves” made its first debut. The production cost of this film was only 30 million US dollars, and it won 31 million in North America in the first weekend With a box office of more than ten thousand dollars, while it is popular, it also declares that the horror atmosphere that has been rampant in theaters since Halloween has completely dissipated.

Affected by this, the box office of Dungeon Siege continued to decline, and the North American box office in the third weekend of its release has dropped to 4.2 million US dollars.

However, the North American box office of this film has accumulated more than 60 million US dollars.

There is a clear understanding within Embassy Pictures that Dungeon Siege will not last longer than December in North American theaters.

At the same time, the North American screening of the other two films released by Embassy Pictures has come to an end.

The first is the plasma horror film Chain Saw.

This genre is known for its short screening life, and Chain Saw stayed in North American theaters for a full nine weeks before it was released, and it can be regarded as a film of the same type with a long screening life.

After nine weeks of screening, the North American box office of Chain Saw reached 87.21 million U.S. dollars. Compared with the production cost of 1.5 million U.S. dollars, it once again created a miracle for Relativity Entertainment.

Having said that, horror films can be said to be the most common type of small-budget films. Hollywood basically produces low-cost and high-grossing horror films every year, especially some old series of horror films. The investment is not high, but the box office return is good.

Chain Saw has also been screened overseas for some time, but compared to North America, the film's overseas response is also much worse. Currently, the overseas box office is only more than 30 million US dollars.

The film's global box office total is infinitely close to 120 million US dollars.

Subsequently, after more than four months of screenings, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl also successfully rolled off the assembly line in North America.

The repercussions of this film far surpassed that of Chain Saw, and it can even be said that it changed the pattern of Hollywood movies. Pirate movies have since revived, causing countless people to devote themselves to the great pirate career, and then they were overwhelmed by the stormy sea.

Captain Jack Sparrow has one and only one!

The North American box office of Pirates of the Caribbean fell above 388.77 million US dollars, and the overseas screening of the film has not yet ended. It is expected that the global box office will reach about 778 million US dollars.

After the film was released, the crew of Pirates of the Caribbean held a press conference in Rosario, Baja California, announcing that the two sequels, Dead Man's Chest and At World's End, had officially started filming.

All the main creators of Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl have returned, and Xiao Ma, who has considerable appeal in the Eastern market, also joined the show through the crew audition.

In addition, when Ronan was discussing the script with director Gore Verbinski and others, he clearly asked them to make certain changes to the script, and not to make any changes between Jack Sparrow, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swan. Engage in a love triangle.

In many cases, the inexplicably tangled love triangle is not pleasing. Elizabeth Swan was once very unpopular with movie fans in the latter two films. The reason is precisely because of the ambiguity with Jack Sparrow, and the A kiss to death.

Kiss Elizabeth Swan.

Perhaps it was because he had been abused by too many film and television dramas, Ronan felt that the love triangle or something was really awkward.

Instead of a love triangle, let Captain Jack Sparrow and the little blacksmith Will Turner fall in love and kill each other, which will also attract a large number of rotten audiences.

Of course, Ronan is also thinking about it. If he really wants to do this, not to mention the market response, it is estimated that the entire crew will object.

After all, it is not more than a decade after homosexuality belongs to the protection of animals.

Mean Girls, which is distributed by Embassy Pictures, will open the weekend after Elf, which was produced by New Line Cinema.

After Ronan checked the news and news related to Christmas Elf\

,"I found a familiar name, the director of this comedy is named - Jon Favreau!

There are not many well-known directors in Hollywood at present.

But Ronan remembered him very clearly. Even though he had never seen him in person after coming to Los Angeles, he could still remember what Jon Favreau looked like. For example, Jon Favreau was a fat man with a very humorous temperament.

Because it used to be the driver and bodyguard next to Iron Man Tony Stark, and it seemed to be called Harpy.

The most important thing is that Jon Finn not only starred in Harpy, but also the director of Iron Man, a film that really reversed the situation in Marvel and thus formed Marvel Dafa!

This can be said to be one of the important figures in Marvel superhero movies. Later, with the help of Marvel's springboard, he directed many heavyweight commercial giants and reached the pinnacle of his life.

Like The Jungle Book, and the real-animal version of The Lion King.

Ronan carefully read the information of Jon Favreau and found that he has had a direct connection with Marvel superhero movies. The one starring Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner, but not in the main roles.

This Daredevil can be regarded as a typical failure of Marvel superhero movies.

Ronan wrote down the name of Jon Favreau, but he will not contact him in a short time. The Avengers plan has not yet started.

Later, Ronan returned to New York again to attend the premiere of Mean Girls in New York.

This is a movie about youthful women on campus. This brand was the main focus of the publicity. Naturally, young and beautiful girls gathered at the premiere.

Liz Caplan, Rachel McAdams and Amanda Seyfried walked the red carpet.

Even though some of them are in their twenties, being tender is a basic skill for Hollywood actresses. Dressing up as a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl on the red carpet means that there is no pressure at all.

This film also encountered some troubles, especially in the rating, and was almost rated R by the rating committee. Fortunately, after the last time, Ronan told George Clint to pay more attention to this aspect, and the film was sent to The scale of the rating committee is smaller and the time is earlier, leaving enough room for buffering.

The six major companies are both cooperating and competing, just like DreamWorks, using methods within the rules.

For example, this weekend, there will be a top production of the six major companies released, produced and distributed by 20th Century Fox, starring Oscar winner Russell Crowe, and the production cost is close to 120 million US dollars. Strong start drawing.

With a production cost of just $15 million, Mean Girls looks like an underage child in the face of the giant Race to Arms.

Raging Seas is also one of the top Hollywood productions in 2003, a real commercial giant.

Once this film was also the beginning of Russell Crowe's turn from prosperity to decline.

But it is undeniable that the simultaneous release of The Raging Sea squeezed the screening space of Mean Girl in theaters to a certain extent.

The number of theaters opened for Battle on the Seas is as high as 3,201, while Mean Girls only has 2,840.

The only good news is that the target audience of Mean Girls is very clear, and the degree of overlap with Raging Seas is relatively low.

In the face of strong competitors in the same period, in order to promote Mean Girls, Ronan, who rarely appeared directly in front of the media, rolled up his sleeves and went to battle in person.

Standing in the media area, Ronan was interviewed by reporters.

I think girls who try to secretly destroy other people's lives are very smart. Ronan said of the original novel: The reason why this book moved me was because of the anecdotes told by the girls in the interviews. They're so much fun, I mean, the way the girls fight each other is so clever and sophisticated.

He then pulled Lindsay Beer to his side and introduced solemnly: This is Miss Lindsay Beal, the screenwriter of the film. She is also the director of Twilight, The Hunger Games and Fifty Shades of Gray. The original author of the three female-themed novels is a very talented woman who has completed the script of Summer of Jeans before, which is the female-themed movie launched by Embassy Pictures in June.

It can be said that this is the first time that Lindsay Bill has really appeared in front of the media. Although she has a decent smile on her delicate face, she clenched her fists nervously.

Ronan was not stingy with praise, saying: Lindsay's Mean Girls script is the best youth female-themed script that I have seen for many years. Lindsay understands girls' thoughts very well, and the script is well written It is very realistic, showing the fierce competition between American middle school and girls very realistically, and the girls who have experienced and will soon experience middle school life will resonate with the story of the film.

Having said that, Ronan handed over the rest of the interview time to Lindsay Bill, nodded to her as a sign of encouragement, and briefly explained to the public relations staff next to him, then left the media interview area and headed towards Go to the theater.

When she came to the entrance of the theater and looked back, Rhona found that Lindsay Bill had been surrounded by media reporters.

A good-looking female screenwriter is very topical, and a good-looking and very talented female screenwriter is even more topical!

In the future, if there are star directors, there can also be star screenwriters.

Lindsay-Bill is also the author of the three novels of Twilight, The Hunger Games and Fifty Shades of Grey. If she is well-known enough, it will be a good thing for changes in future movies .

Ronan took the time to chat with Amanda, and soon entered the theater. In the VIP room, he had a conversation with Lauren Weisberg who came to participate in the premiere. Lindsay Bill walked away with a tired face. over here.

She was accompanied by a blond girl who looked less than twenty years old.
