Hollywood legendary director

Chapter 993 "Wizard Apprentice"

"..."

In the theater, the audience was already stunned.

"That spinning top? Is it still a dream."

"After paying so much, Cobb still can't go back."

"How do I feel that the top has the meaning of stopping, it's already a little unbalanced just now."

Because of a blank shot, the audience talked endlessly, and some people even grabbed their hair and doubted life.

It can be said that after the climax, there should have been a perfect ending to please the scene, and the suspense of the fall was raised to the greatest.

Understatement, it shows skill.

Until the subtitles reappeared on the big screen and the list of actors slowly rose, the film critic Joey also sat quietly, the thoughts in his mind tangled together, and repeated the deep meaning of the film.

"Nolan." He whispered with emotion.

In any case, "Inception" is an extremely good movie that can withstand fine taste.

"Awesome. This is his first foray into propositional science fiction, right? It's amazing."

"Yes, yes." The companion stood up and agreed with satisfaction. "The setting of multiple dreams is amazing enough, and the simultaneous narration of parallel montages is even more amazing. Nolan's director talent is beyond doubt, just The same as the label owner Lehman he worked with. By the way, what do you think of the last blank space?"

"It doesn't affect anything. Whether it is a dream or reality, it is a good ending. It can only be said that although the theme of the dream is sublimated, the trace is a bit heavy, but the effect is not bad, which is a bonus."

"Two..."

The two walked out of the theater, and a young white guy drew closer, "Can you take a moment? It only takes a while."

Joey watched as the guy took out a questionnaire out of his bag and accepted it without a stranger.

It just so happens that he has a good sense of this movie, and he doesn't mind spending a little more time for it.

The guy who is familiar with the road filled in some basic information about himself (such as age, gender, etc.), and then hit an A+ in the score column without hesitation, "Are you from Sony?"

After filling in, Joey asked casually.

"No, we are a third-party investigative company, but it can be regarded as such. They and Blue Butterfly jointly hired us."

"You have collected so many questionnaires, are there enough assessment information? Is Inception highly rated?"

The young man just received Joey's questionnaire and smiled when he heard this question, "There are many people who play A+ like you, but there are always dissatisfied. This movie has audiences leaving halfway through."

"How come." Joey was too focused when he watched the movie, not paying attention to it at all.

"They all murmured that there were too many twists and turns in the movie and it was uncomfortable to watch."

"Oh, this kind of person is suitable for watching fool movies."

Joey grumbled and left.

...

"This time the film critics should be on our side. Inception is very much in line with their tastes. They have always advocated that movies should be nutritious, rather than streamlined commercial entertainment. In addition, Colombia is also Putting effort into public relations with some well-known film critics, let them help us to speak, the evaluation will certainly not be low. But I am a little worried whether the threshold of this movie will be higher, I listened to the reports from my subordinates, and the audience did not see it at all. Go in..."

At the reception, Liam was holding a glass of champagne, while dealing with the guests coming and going, while reporting the screening of "Inception" with some nagging, but Lyman didn't listen very carefully.

The basic plate of "Inception" is different from the audience of the Marvel project. The former has no patience and movie experience. The more unexperienced teenagers or vulgar people, the less likely he will buy it. know.

Moreover, the so-called threshold for viewing movies is actually not too high. Regardless of those settings, it can only be viewed as a crime film or a shootout between men. The commercial element part, "Inception" Not lacking, nothing to worry about.

"What's the publicity?"

"Next week, we will invest another 9 million U.S. dollars, and the corresponding promotional resources under Columbia have also prepared some. It can be said that in the next few weeks, their distribution focus will be ours, and then they will gradually shift their focus to others. New film."

"What about the new movie of the same period?"

"Haha, boss, Cage may be in trouble." Speaking of this, Liam has no concerns about "Inception", but a little bit cheerful. "He starring in "The Witcher Apprentice" is simply a disaster. It is said that the internal trial screenings held after the film editing were disfavored by some representatives of the hospital, and then a small number of screenings were released, and the positive word-of-mouth was not maintained. If it were not for the signing of the screening contract between Haimer Films and Disney, they even premiered Zhou’s 3,500 open-painting theaters are not available. My instinct tells that this movie is going to be over unless everyone looks away again, but this is rare."

Although Hollywood has one or two unexpected miracle dark horses every year, most of the industry’s estimates are accurate, and if it weren’t optimistic, "The Witcher Apprentice" would not be so cautious. Disney has no confidence in promoting it. , More like a perfunctory performance of the issuance contract.

The reason Liam is happy is that if "The Witcher Apprentice" falls, there will be no strong competitors competing with them for market share in the mid-July schedule, which will release the film's potential to a greater extent. After all, "Inception" has invested 200 million in, and there is still pressure to create profits.

"Why is Disney willing to put a bad film in the summer file? It's too wasteful. Wouldn't it be good to pick a bad one?

"Who knows in advance that Joe Det Durbar is directed, Matt Lopez is written, Jerry Bruckheimer is the producer, Nicholas Cage, Jay Baruchel, Teresa Pal The team composed of the main creators such as Mo will fail.” Liam’s tone was a little gloat. “They have completed the gold series of "National Treasure" together, and Bruckheimer personally made his own film company take over. For a part of the investment share, Disney has no reason not to use these resources to attract."-The director, producer, and starring role of "National Treasure" are Joe Detduba, Jerry Bruckheimer, and Cage.

"Why is he so unlucky?" Lyman also muttered.

In this life, Lehman helped Cage get rid of the big hole in the housing market. As a result, the subprime mortgage crisis and the economic downturn, Cage could still encounter bad movies. Is this fate?

But for Cage, both Bruckheimer and Joe Detduba are people who are familiar with him. They can’t escape. It’s like Lehman suddenly has a project to play him. He is happy. The answer was, and it turned out to be disadvantageous after finishing...

"By the way, remember to follow up on the topic of "Inception" and make sure the audience is interested in dreams."

"Don't worry." Liam responded.
