Hollywood legendary director

Chapter 968 "Tuner" is finished

Hollywood is a big mouthful, leaky, crowded, and gossiping, it’s hard to have any secrets.

Therefore, Summit Entertainment's successive contact with Lionsgate and Firefly quickly became a topic of discussion among the staff of various manufacturers in their spare time.

What is even more curious is, what is the attraction of Summit Entertainment to those two companies?

However, if you spend a little time to investigate, the assets of Summit Entertainment are really tasteless for manufacturers such as Dinis and Fox.

For a while, everyone was just holding the posture of watching the show, watching how the two families that had worked closely together fought.

However, what makes the "audiences" with different minds extremely disappointed is that when they found a competitor, both Lionsgate and Firefly maintained considerable restraint, and the investors of Summit Entertainment felt that such a price increase method was somewhat Can't get it.

It is even said that Lehmann seemed to care nothing, and regained his energy to concentrate on the finishing work of "Tuner".

The second weekend of March.

Between the vegetable plots beside a trail, the layout of the last scene is ready.

It was the morning and the weather was good.

The camera with the raised boom faithfully recorded a farmer shooting a blind hare with a shotgun.

The gun went off and a car drove over from the other side of the road...

This is actually the beginning of the film, but it was left at the end. The reason is that it buried a clue to the final reversal, just like Nolan’s secret design in "Memory Fragment", a surprise reversal, and another reason. It was also because it took more than a month for the crew to cultivate this temporary vegetable plot.

Yes, it was originally a wasteland, but considering the constraints of the scene factors, the crew can only cultivate a vegetable plot to meet the demand.

This has been seen in many movies.

And when this set of shots is completed, the 7-week shooting is over.

"Wow."

The scene was quiet for a few seconds, and Ryan took the lead and applauded, "It's done, close work, see you at the party tonight."

Lyman, who was sitting behind the monitor, also smiled, "It's 7 o'clock in the evening, it's all on time."

Not far away, Heath Ledger watched the lively scene and slowly broke away from the character's emotions: it was finished.

......

After being idle, the crew members who had been holding back for a long time showed their interest, and alcohol became the theme of the night.

For those who don't drink, the atmosphere is not bad, at least with good food.

Under the reminder of his agent, Dai Lins quickly found Lehmann who was chatting with Heath Ledger with a glass of champagne, "Director, thank you for letting me try this time..."

The girl toasted a glass of wine and gave him a hug, "How does it feel to be in a movie compared to acting in a TV series?" Lyman asked with a smile.

"That's how to say it. The big screen is more challenging than the small screen. I think that's how it is. The acting is very enjoyable."

"Haha, there is a chance to continue cooperation."

"Okay." The girl said happily.

Watching her go to establish friendships with other crew members, Lehman felt that Dai Lins was still very suitable for the actor's path. She had good looks, was not extreme, worked hard, and her acting talent was not bad.

It's just that this night, the completion of "Tuner" is not a point of concern in the circle, because on the film market, "Alice in Wonderland", which is known as more realistic in three-dimensional sense, has got a very good box office start, which encourages the system. Studios go to explore the market for 3D shooting-

The film won 41 million US dollars at the box office on the day of its premiere on Friday, ranking 11th in the box office on the premiere day of film history and seventh in the box office on Friday of all dynasties (second only to "The Twilight Saga 2: New Moon", "Batman: The Night Rider", "Spiderman 3", "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Gathering Coffin", "X-Men 3: The Last Battle", "Pirates of the Caribbean 3: End of the World")-"Avatar" is It will be released on Wednesday.

Then "Alice" did not lose its momentum. It continued to earn 44.33 million on Saturday and 30.98 million on Sunday. The number of North American screenings in the first weekend directly won 116 million, making it the second largest box office in the premiere of G- and PG-level movies ( Second only to "Shrek 3"), and surpassed "Racing Storm" in the film history of the past generations of spring opening paintings to premiere at the box office, surpassing "Spartan 300 Warriors" in the film history of the past generations in March to premiere painting works in the box office the first.

In addition, the film is also the ninth fastest North American box office breaker in film history;

Of course, the North American market is so hot, and the world will not be worse. The total accumulated US$210 million in three days easily became the new box office number one in this year's movies-"Avatar" is considered last year's movie.

Not to mention, in order to keep up the heat, Disney chose to be screened in March in a hurry. It also rarely got a high average of about $31,200 for a single library, almost overturning the second holder of the previous average record for a single library, "The Dark Knight" .

For a time, the golden combination of Tim Burton and Johnny Depp has become a point of love for the audience, and it has also elevated the first blockbuster film "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" of the two partners in a high-profile manner. More than twice as many global results per week.

In addition, this is the premiere box office of Depp's second-highest personal work and Hathaway's first-highest personal performance. Of course, it also rewrote the highest premiere record of Burton's works.

Obviously, Disney was very successful in this touch porcelain marketing.

First, the benchmark "Avatar" was questioned and the audience took heart. Then Depp won the People’s Choice Lifetime Achievement Award and was exhibited at the sky-high price of the Super Bowl. The non-stop hype of soft, wide, hard and wide has maintained a very high exposure. rate.Not to mention that after the market burst in the first week, the next week also maintained a slight decline-less than 40%.

This means that the film has a certain long-term operational potential. From this point of view, the significance of "Alice"'s big sales needs to be paid more attention to in the circle-the examples of "Avatar" and "Alice" clearly tell everyone, The 3D is well done, the audience is willing to spend money, because the imax theater of the film is basically full.

Of course, there are those who are proud, and there are those who are disappointed.

Within the period.

Overture Films, which used to change the company's fate by "Law Abiding Citizen", this week proudly took out "Brooklyn Police", which spent 5 million US dollars to win the distribution rights, in order to maximize the capture of male and realistic audiences. As a result, the $13.5 million in the first week's performance was much lower than the prelude's 20 million opening level.

Although "Brooklyn Police" has also put expensive advertisements in the Super Bowl, it completely presents the appearance of a pissed daughter-in-law in front of powerful enemies-the number of premieres differs by 100 million US dollars, but the more publicity investment, the greater the return. The difficulties of the industry also make the industry have to sigh: there is still no one that can get the benefit of 3D works head-on.

Lehman, who returned to the company, looked at the market evaluation of "Avatar" whose reputation was obviously inferior to that of "Avatar". Liam was also known with a smile: the first follower can always drink soup...
