Chapter 1972 1974 [Wine Bottle New Wine]

In June, the movie released by Universal Pictures is "Jurassic Park 3."

This movie is different from the original "Jurassic Park 3".The original version is a third-rate adventure film, with flat characters and no new story. You can almost guess the ending after seeing the beginning.

Therefore, although the investment in that movie was as high as 6000 million US dollars, the global box office was only [-] million US dollars, almost losing money.Therefore, Universal Pictures stopped the development of the IP "Jurassic Park" for a while, and did not restart this IP until [-] years ago.

Naturally, Xiang Nan would not make such a mistake, so the story of "Jurassic Park 3" is completely new.

It tells the story of a warlike general preparing to turn dinosaurs into biochemical weapons, and the former Jurassic Park has become his testing ground.The story of a group of environmental guards who landed on Isla Nublar to stop the general and rescue the enslaved dinosaurs.

In this movie, humans and dinosaurs are no longer in a simple hostile relationship, but have begun to cooperate and explore the way of symbiosis and getting along.

This makes the relationship with dinosaurs more complicated, and the plot becomes more innovative and expansive.

Just like the novelty that "Terminator 2" brings to the audience.If the T800 played by Schwarzenegger is still the big villain, then the story of the first part will be repeated, and even James Cameron will find it difficult to make new ideas.

But after James Cameron changed the T800 from a villain to the patron saint of the protagonists, the plot suddenly became novel and interesting.Moreover, through the change of T800's identity, the way of getting along with humans and robots has been further explored, so "Terminator 2" will be so successful.

Therefore, Xiang Nan learned from Cameron, and changed the relationship between humans and dinosaurs in "Jurassic Park 3".Sure enough, the plot has been newly expanded, and the chasing scenes between humans and dinosaurs in Parts [-] and [-] will no longer be repeated.

The audience is also very satisfied with this transformation, so in the end, "Jurassic Park 3" has a North American box office of 2000 million U.S. dollars and a global box office of nearly 2 million U.S. dollars, which is an increase compared to "Jurassic Park [-]".

Therefore, this IP did not go to a dead end, but regained its vitality, so "Jurassic Park 4" was soon arranged again.

……

In the same month, after reviewing the scripts of "True Lies 2" and "Terminator 3" in detail, Cameron finally decided to take over the movie "True Lies 2".

As for the script of "Terminator 3", it's not bad, but it's not quite what he wanted.

Because the "Terminator" series has always been written by him, although he has not yet written the script for "Terminator 3", he already has some hazy concepts.And this is completely different from Xiang Nan's "Terminator 3" script, so he doesn't want to force himself.

Xiang Nan was very happy to hear that he was willing to take on the filming of "True Lies 2", and didn't care that the script of "Terminator 3" was rejected.

After all, each person has his own taste, and the scripts he writes may not all meet the preferences of others.What's more, Cameron is also the founder of the "Terminator" series, so his taste must be more tricky.

"True Lies 2" started shooting immediately, and the original crew assembled again.In addition, the father, mother, father-in-law, and mother-in-law are also selected as European and American classic spy actors.

For example, Harry's father is Sean Connery, and his mother is Lana Wood from "The Bourne" drama version; Helen's father is German from "Dragon". Ke Benedict, whose mother is Jacqueline Smith of the drama version of "Charlie's Angels"...

With so many familiar faces, I believe it will win the love of the audience.

……

In July, the martial arts film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" starring Xiang Nan, Michelle Yeoh, Zhang Ziyi, and Zhang Zhen, and directed by Li An was officially launched.

This movie, full of strong oriental culture and martial arts elements, shocked everyone when it was released.

On the one hand, although "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is an oriental martial arts story, it has been adapted in a Western style.

For example, because of morality, Li Mubai's affection for Yu Xiulian, which was almost ceremonial, was photographed as a platonic love.The love-hate relationship between Yu Jiaolong and Luo Xiaohu is in line with modern people's concept of love.

Especially Yu Jiaolong, who is not restrained and yearns for freedom, is more like modern people than modern people.Therefore, it is not too difficult for Western audiences to accept it.

On the one hand, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is also very beautiful and moving.

Whether it is flying over the eaves and walls, skimming the sky, or fighting in the bamboo forest, or fighting with weapons, they all reflect the unique beauty of oriental martial arts.

Different from the fierce and bloody Japanese sword and halberd films, and different from the rough and wild western cowboy films, the beauty of Eastern martial arts with appropriate movement and stillness and harmonious yin and yang has caught the eyes of American audiences.

Therefore, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has been unanimously affirmed in the industry.

“The perfect combination of Eastern and Western culture~”

"Charles gave one of the best performances of his career."

"After watching this film, I became very interested in oriental culture."

Many film critics gave unanimous praise.

The audience was even more fascinated by this movie, watching it mesmerizingly, and finally made this movie a box office of [-] million U.S. dollars in North America alone.

On the one hand, it is because this movie is really good-looking, and on the other hand, it is also because this movie is starring Xiang Nan.Xiang Nan has worked hard in Hollywood for nearly 20 years, and the popularity he has accumulated is quite terrifying.

Plus, it grossed nearly $[-] million worldwide, making it arguably the top-grossing martial arts film.

The huge sales of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" also revived the already declining martial arts films.

Moreover, the mainland film industry is also incentivized.A large amount of capital began to pour into this market, making the film industry in the mainland develop rapidly and vigorously.

And Zhang Ziyi, who starred in this movie, has also become an internationally renowned movie star from an unknown newcomer, and has successfully taken the first step in his debut.

……

In August, the film released by Universal Pictures is the magical masterpiece "The Mummy".

This film is adapted from the original work of Universal Pictures in [-]. It tells the story of the hero and heroine who inadvertently released the Egyptian high priest Imerton while exploring the Egyptian tomb.Emerton wanted to destroy the world, pouring thousands of years of anger.The hero and heroine are forced to stand up and save the world...

The original version of the film starred Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz, but now this version stars Winona Ryder and Hugh Jackman.The appearance and acting skills of both of them are impeccable, and they have completed these two roles very well.

Coupled with a solid story and vivid computer special effects, the play "The Mummy" is novel and interesting, bringing the audience an extraordinary audio-visual enjoyment.

Therefore, the movie sold well at the box office, with a North American box office of 5000 million US dollars and a global box office of 2000 million US dollars.
