Rebirth in Hollywood

In 2004, an ordinary year, but it is different from Hollywood.

Different places are that this year's commercial large-scale, it is the highest investment in history, the most crazy.

Perhaps waited for a few years, when you look back, Hollywood industry people will feel incredible.

"Star Wars Prequel 3: The revenge" has been released, the cost of film is $ 10 million, counted, the total cost is definitely $ 200 million, and this film is refreshed in the first week. North America Temporau Record, ten days, North American box office exceeds $ 22 million, seems to have a good head for the next large piece.

But will the truth are true?

Even if the professional institution predicts that this year, the total amount of North American box office will exceed 10 billion US dollars, and the market will not have so much big production, some inevitably become cannon.

This is Ryan sitting on the plane and saw the idea after determining the list of movie this year.

Don't say that those literary films and independent movies that don't have much market share, single is those who make costs hundreds of millions of dollars, even if he is a little bit.

Let's take a look at Disney this year's movie.

"Superman family", production cost is 100 million US dollars, released in early June.

"Spider-Man 2", the production cost is $ 50 million, the release date is set in July.

"X Police 3: Back War" production cost is $ 200 million, in order to avoid the summer file too fierce competition, the surprise delays the release time of this movie.

"Harry Potter and Azkan's prisoners", the production cost is 100 million US dollars, will be launched in Thanksgiving.

"The day after tomorrow" production cost is $ 25 million, and the "Spider Man 2" is released.

"National Treasure" production cost is 100 million US dollars, and it is released in early November.

Among them, there is no more than 100 million investments such as "Spy Shadows 2" "Escape from" "Princess Diary 2" in Tehran.

This is just a Disney, and the latter list is more horrible.

The "Troy" of Warner Brothers, the production cost is $ 75 million. It is about to be released; "Alexander" production cost is $ 55 million, released in October; "Polar Express" production cost is 10 million US dollars; "cat and female" 100 million US dollars, "Magic Women" 15 million US dollars ... ...

There are other companies, "Arthur King", "Fan Hai Xin", "Mechanical Enemy", "Garfield", "Happiness Terminal", etc.

These films have exceeded 100 million US dollars, and if they count, the average investment amount is definitely more than $ 200 million.

among them. How much can I succeed in the box office? How much does it take to achieve a profit? How many things can you recover after several years or even more than ten years? There are still some huge losses that I am still still still still in the past thirty years ...

The most typical, is the "cat woman" that has been under North America. This is produced by Harry Berry, the current collection of 40 million US dollars, and the first gun of Warner brothers dumb fire. Have to re-examine the comic hero of DC.

At the same time, it is also a very uncomfortable choice to make a clear understanding of Hollywood.

of course. All producers believe that their big production will succeed, "Star Wars Prequel 3: The Revenge of Siss" shows that the audience is still very big to buy.

After returning to North America, Natal has joined Catherine, Kennedy and Sophia, Copola. Start preparation of "hunger games", Ryan accepted the invitation of Tang Rogen, President of Times Warner, participated in the premiere of "Troy".

From the investment, this movie is called the peak of Hollywood business. In addition to the cost of production, Warner Brothers also issued a huge publicity fees for $ 1,25 million and pushed the total cost to the horror of 300 million US dollars.

The goal of Warner Brothers is very simple. Create the "Titanic" in the epic war film!

"According to our estimate ..."

In the front hall of Hollywood China Grand Theater, Brad Pitt said to Ryan, "The first week's box office will reach 100 million US dollars!"

This project is almost him to contribute, and also serves as a manufacturer.

I nodded, Ryan turned to him, "Hello, Jane, us seem to see it for the first time."

"Hello, Ryan." Jennifer Aiston took the initiative to extend his hand, Ruien gently held a moment, suddenly remembered a thing, said very seriously, "Jane, there is Pitt, interested in starring A movie? "

"We?" Brad Pitte stunned.

"Yes! You ..." Ryan pointed to him and Jennifer, Aniston, "Men's lead!"

"of course!"

What did his invitation represent, Hollywood, who is unclear, Jennifer, which is eager to transform, Jennieston, said, "I have no problem."

After finishing, she looked at Brad Pitt.

"As long as you need!" Brad Pitte is not a fool.

"This will be a gun action movie." Ryundo thought about it, and then "Troy" is reflected in the contract and talks more appropriate. "During the time, Disney people will go to you."

"It is always waiting."

Pending a hand, Ryan walked into the theater, "Smith couple" movie, from creativity to the bridge to fight, almost no new idea, more show is the Commercial appeal of Hollywood superstar, and past life The influence of the super gossip brought.

Well ... You can set a heavyweight female role to the counterpart. If you invite Angelina? Jolie is doing well, if you catch the play code in the bed, the movie's box office is definitely not a problem.

Just do it.

Until the movie started, Ryan was temporarily throwing these ideas.

This is a good business piece, although the scene is not as good as "Magic Rings", but tens of thousands of warriors, the cold weapons of the soldiers are still very movable, the yellow city, the blue sea, the magnificent battlefield , The scene has almost described the description of Homer's epic.

But the problem of movies is also outstanding, and the rhythm is too dragging, it is like a sentence to say, not to say five sentences.

Second, some kind of ioncote is too low, such as the front of the front-end close-up, and these actors' performances are too straightforward, and the eyebrows are frowning. Woke what is wrinking, lacks like "Magic Rings" Zhongan , Aragon, Ximen and other characters.

At the same time, the main line of the story is not clear, and each character is in the end, even if the most important role of Akuis is not deep enough, his mother is flashing and is inexplicably.

Also, the vases that are essential in the business card are not beautiful enough.

Probably improper makeup, lights and lens can be used, and Helen, which can trigger a war, regardless of the body, it can only say that it is still beautiful, and the beauty is estimated to have two streets, but A The girl in love in the love of Kuscis, is incredible like a female slave, which has to doubt the beauty of this epic hero.

Fortunately, the producer did not let the greeks of the gods, if they were loyal to the Homer's original, such as the original commencement, it was really a hodgeless hodge.

If you can reduce the investment of the movie, maybe "Troy" will become a successful business piece, but the words come back, the investment is reduced, and it is impossible to make such a grand production.

Perhaps these wars that have nothing to do with Americans, really don't recruit North American audiences, and Akuis Pitt played with Eric in Brado and Eric, the back row audience actually The rare broke out of laughter.

It is to know that North America is a ripe film market, which is often treated with whistle.

Ruien swept from the side, and several Warner's high-end faces sitting here were not very beautiful. Then the next North American box office also confirmed this.

A single day, one more than 1,700 million US dollars in a consecutive day, but at the third day, the movie box office should have a time, "Troy" box office slipped to $ 12.05 million.

The first week of North America is 46.86 million US dollars, just more than the "Star Wars Prequel 3: Revenge", the first week of the box office, it is far from Warner and Brad Pitt.

Although "Troy" pulled the "Star Wars Prequel 3: Revenge" pulled the throne of the North American box office, the box office score is really a bit worse than investment.

Of course, this is just the beginning, and it is also possible to achieve movies that make up the box office in the future.

For example, the "Titanic" in the past, the first week's box office is only poor, and the film review is the same as the film review. Later, the so-called vision and dignity of the film reviewer is crushed. Oscar To bow down.

But "Troy" will be the "Titanic" in the epic war film?

The biggest competitor of this film is "Star Wars Prequel 3: Revenge", "Troy" The second week of the box office is 32.61 million US dollars, "Star Wars Prequel 3: The Revenge" Fourth World Box Office 34.45 million US dollars, successfully retained the champion of the box office list.

"Troj" is less than 80 million US dollars in the North American box office, and the "Star Wars Prequel 3: Revenge" is a sharp contrast of 38 million US dollars.

Just two weeks later, Warner Brothers did not exceed the preparation of the cost-made costs, and also understood that this film will not accept the cost in the box office.

Because there are two big production to be released, after entering June, the "Superman" and the "Superman" and Sony Columbia spended a "Arthur King", which will be landed in North America.
