Hollywood starts with animation

Warner Pictures and Wald Pictures, the two have a long-standing grievance.

One:

The movie "Lola Run" in early 1996;

Once upon a time, Zhuke took out almost all of his working capital and raised his first film "Lola Run".At the beginning of the show, just because of the face of a middle-level manager of Warner, the theaters greatly reduced the number of films.

Had it not been for Zhuke's friend and the old Billy who opened a chain store in Utah, the premiere of "Lola Run" would have been less than 200 screens.

This time, although it was not a high-level shot by Warner Pictures, it was only a personal reason for a middle-level manager, but it did make Zhu Ke's profit decrease.

You said, can Zhu Ke have no grievances?

Second:

The movie "Juneo" at the end of 1996;

Zhu Ke has high hopes for the youth movie "Juneo".

However, just because of the appearance of "Juneo", the box office of "Space Slam Dunk" produced by Warner Pictures and played by NBA veteran Jordan Jordan has fallen. Erde Pictures launched an attack.

Media power?

The influence of the cinema side?

At that time, Zhu Ke was just a rookie, a fledgling little guy. Without the support of the media, where could there be the power to counter Warner?

Thanks to Zhuke’s cleverness and using the old beauty’s curiosity to spark discussions on sensitive topics such as "unmarried first pregnancy" and "underage girls", the box office of the movie "Juneo" has stabilized, otherwise the result will definitely be unimaginable.

Zhuke's grievance +1.

Third:

The 1997 movie "Human Removal Project";

As we all know, American cinema movies must be graded according to the theme, language, violence, red fruit body and drug use scenes through the classification committee of the American Film and Television Association before they can enter the theaters and be released.

G level (popular level), PG level (counseling level), PG-13 (special counseling level, recommended for children after 13 years of age), R level (restricted level, recommended for viewing over 17 years old), NC-17 (under 17 years old) , Including 17 years old, forbidden to watch).

R grade and NC-17 grade, there is a question of whether they can watch the film at the age of 17.

Once the restrictions on children under 17, including the prohibition of watching the film at the age of 17, will inevitably lead to a decrease in the box office of the film.

This is an issue that must be paid attention to for film companies.

but......

In the 1997 movie "Human Removal Project" project, the Warner Group, which has 17 seats on the classification committee, used Yaozi from it, and the "Human Removal Project", which should have been rated as R, was ruled as NC-17.

You said, would Zhuke be happy?

Of course not happy!

But do you have a way?

No!

Because the grading committee has only 7 seats, the owners are Warner, Columbia, Universal, Disney, Paramount, 20th Century Fox, the six major Hollywood presences, plus a MGM film company.

Before the emergence of Netflix, the streaming media giant, these seven seats are fixed and no one can replace them.

They are naturally standing at the apex of Hollywood!

This seat is like gold!

In the end, in order for Zhu Ke to successfully grade the film as R, he had to reluctantly sign a series of cooperation agreements with Paramount, and actively reduced a few profit ratios before making the "Human Removal Project" successfully passed the review.

The contradictions and conflicts caused by the three major incidents were all initiated by Warner.

In addition, in variety shows such as "The Talent Show" and "Millionaire"; animation series such as "SpongeBob SquarePants" and "Little Pig Page";

Among these broadcasts, Warner's media also vilified a lot.

Even in the process of establishing and acquiring overseas distribution channels by Zhu Ke, Warner Inc. has been obstructed.

There was a time when Zhu Ke, who was still weak in strength and financial resources, could only swallow his anger and evade in the face of Warner's slander and conflict.

But now, is Zhu Ke, who is financially strong, still willing to avoid it?

Would you still like to be a man with your tail sandwiched?

Moreover, Wald Pictures, which has now lost its protection from Paramount, is bound to be more powerfully impacted by Warner. In this case, Zhuke can only choose to go head-on!

.......

February 13th.

The day before Valentine's Day is also the day before the release of Wald Pictures' new film "My Grand Greek Wedding".

Today, many media under Warner's subsidiary have launched a new round of targeted attacks.

["My Grand Greek Wedding" is a work of extremely poor quality and insincere.

This is the headline of this morning's report in the entertainment section of Time Magazine, a Warner Company's media.

The article claims: "Nia Vadalas, the heroine of the movie "My Grand Greek Wedding", is a stage actor, 37 years old, and the actor, Jacques Phoenix, is only 25 years old. They Do you think it's appropriate to play a couple in a romantic movie with a 12-year-old age difference?"

Taking age as an argument, I have to say it is despicable enough!

In real life, there is a huge age difference between boy and girl friends, which is not a problem at all.Old couples and young wives are common.

However, the movie is different!

Movies are also called "dream places".

Many moviegoers allow old couples and young wives to appear in their lives, but in a dreamlike movie, they absolutely don't want to see this scene of old couples and young wives.

They don't want their dreams to be broken!

There is no doubt that some viewers who are more sensitive to this may give up their interest in watching "My Grand Greek Wedding".

Not only did the entertainment version of Time Magazine issue slander, but many media companies under Warner also wrote articles.

["My Grand Greek Wedding" is not worth watching, not worth a ticket.

[It is a work lacking sincerity.

[Wald Pictures In addition to making horror movies, what other good movies can they make?

[Are they planning to release a horror movie on a beautiful Valentine's Day?Please allow me to say no!

The media published numerous articles, and Warner also arranged many well-known Hollywood film critics to stand up and speak out.

Moreover, the attitude of the film critics is not as gentle as the media, they have implemented the simple and rude spirit.

Ente Battier, male, 52 years old, has worked in film reviews for more than 30 years. He is a senior film critic in Hollywood and has a large fan base.

He also expressed his views on "My Grand Greek Wedding".

The attitude is even worse.

"Shit!"

""My Grand Greek Wedding" is an imaginary work like shit!"

"Oh my God!"

"A month ago, I was fortunate enough to get the qualification to watch the movie in advance. I left with great minds, but the movie succeeded in disgusting me. I swear to God in the name of Ent Battier, it is really An extremely ugly love movie!"

"Rotten vulgar, smelly!"

In a blink of an eye, it was Valentine's Day on February 14.

This is the day when "My Great Greek Wedding" was released.

This morning, many media under Warner "exposed" another piece of news.

[The heroine Niya Vadalas is actually a hidden lesbian.

A lesbian starred in a love movie, and it was released on Valentine's Day. Do you think those boy and girl friends in love would choose to watch this movie?

There is no doubt that Warner is ruthless!

The truth or falsehood of the exposed news is not important to many people, but for Wald Pictures, on the day of the movie's premiere, it was definitely a heavy blow.

but......

Many people suddenly discovered that Wald Pictures did not issue a counterpoint to these incidents!

Even Zhu Ke, who has always been known as the "big mouth", did not appear in front of the public media, which could not help but arouse the curiosity and speculation of many people.

They knew that Zhu Ke was definitely not the one who could not fight back.

Even Zhuke's old friend Charlize Theron is quite strange: "Zuke, I know, is a master who must repay him."
