Chapter 381

Warner is very smart. It is called the latest sequel of the classic series. However, due to the replacement of protagonists and the rapid development of special effects technology, superman returns is basically built according to the specification of "the first series of box office blockbusters in the 21st century".

However, the recovery of the investment of US $260 million must focus on the overseas market and DVD distribution, which is more difficult. Warner's original plan of "local revenue of at least 400 million" has failed, and the cycle of cost recovery has been prolonged, which means the difficult birth of Superman 6. It is also the fifth episode of the series, "Batman's war time" The performance of "130 million budget / 250 million US dollars local war fruit" is much higher than the input-output ratio of Superman return.

As the original candidate for the director of Superman's return listed many boring names such as Tim Burton (the biological father of Batman Series, nothing new), Michael Bay (Master of fireworks, indiscriminate bombing), many people are interested in Superman The expectation is not high. Even if Brian Singh, who defected from the mutants, takes over the film, he is still in an indispensable chicken rib state.

Singh chulai was the best director of X-Men 3. He was the one who created this immortal mutant myth at that time, but his contradiction with the top management of fox in the 20th century became public. At the critical moment, he chose Warner's Superman return and took away writers, photography, recording, art design and other people, X3 It almost forced Fox's X-Men to death.

The whole planning and production process of Superman's return has lasted for more than ten years, with a total investment of more than 260 million US dollars. In this long and huge production process, the production company replaced three famous directors in order to improve the quality. Tim Bolton was invited at first, but it stopped at the schedule conflict of the ghost director. In 2001, the producer took a fancy to the director at that time MCG, who was in the top position of thunderbolt doll 2, chose to quit because he could not reach an agreement with Warner on the shooting location. Then, the director who directed rush hour, Brett Ratner, took over. However, Warner did not finally decide to direct the film until last year.

Brian Singh is one of the few independent directors who have successfully established himself in Hollywood. In 1995, his "very suspect" was released at the Sundance Film Festival, which shocked four audiences with stylized editing and unexpected ending. Later, he was lucky to become the director of the X-Men series. After successfully creating this superhero series, superman returns It will be a good opportunity for him to show his skills again.

The biggest problem is that Brian Singh's grasp of the rhythm of the film is a disaster for Superman. In fact, the last half hour of the film becomes extremely heavy. This is the evaluation given to him by the New York magazine.

The San Francisco Chronicle criticized it: "the film continues to convey a large number of small scenes, but only once, it starts with a series of earthquakes in a spectacular sequel and reaches the peak in the flight disaster."

There's no plot, no big scene, and it's not cool. Why don't you rush?

Compared with the five-day premiere box office of Superman's return and World War, there is a difference of 30 million between Superman's return and World War. Where is the box office? The devil wearing prada, the second highest box office in Zhou's box office , they landed at 3000 cinemas in beimi and earned US $38 million. Many people thought that the attendance rate of the devil wearing prada was at stake when the female fans were all fascinated by the handsome Brandon Ruth. Now it seems that this worry is groundless.

Secondly, Scarlett's partner Meryl Streep, the "greatest contemporary film actor", is definitely the successful casting of "100% chemical reaction". Scarlett has starred in many popular films, and she is very popular; and in "hangover" and "Brokeback Mountain" After that, Heath's popularity and appeal were at the peak. Although he played a few male protagonists, he still left a deep impression, and Streep's "white haired witch" shape would be amazing.

Excellent actors can improve the quality of the film. Streep, Scarlett, heath, black and other hard-working performances make the film full of highlights.

The excellent quality of the film determines the good reputation of competing recommendation after watching the film. The comprehensive media review is also B, which does not lose Superman return , many authoritative media simply pointed out that Streep is expected to compete for the little golden man again based on the characters in the play, and the acting skills of newcomer black are also commendable. It is no problem to compete for the best supporting actress. No matter whether such an exaggerated and crazy story can be recognized by College members, the extraordinary charm of this comedy sketch is: crisp, dare to think and do, explain in simple terms, and complete at one go, only 106 Minutes, but did what many vulnerable Hollywood writers can't do, a newborn calf posture of "saying everything, saying everything", and a straight attitude makes people laugh.

The reason why this film is popular is because it is related to fashion, which is always crazy. The handsome men and women everywhere in the film and the fashion knowledge and dressing techniques described by the editor in chief with high professional quality are definitely a big attraction.

Fashion depends on pickiness to survive. Don't take pickiness as the original sin of fashion. Successful people in the fashion industry, designers and magazine editors, are very picky about details, sometimes unbearable, but this is a professional requirement. It is their professional requirement that they must do the same. Fashion is a very delicate and sensitive art, which is inseparable from the excellence of details. In a popular saying, "details determine success or failure", this is the survival rule for fashion. Often, they will bring this cutting-edge pursuit of art into their daily life and become the devil in the eyes of their subordinates.

Among young girls, who is not full of admiration and yearning for fashion, so when this film known as the fashion Bible is launched, it is not difficult to understand that it is wildly sought after by them.

With its relaxed and humorous film tone, positive attitude towards life and exquisite film quality, it has won unanimous praise from domestic and foreign media. Since its release, it has achieved quite good box office results. What's more, it has been praised by the film circle and fashion circle. It has become the most popular film among white-collar workers and female audiences in July, The devil in Prada radiates the hot heat into the novel, which is based on the fashionable female devil head The original novel with the title of the book, with the help of the popularity of film audiences and book fans, once again jumped to the list of authoritative best sellers such as Amazon, and maintained for several weeks. The representational film picture, the superb acting skills of actors and the fashion atmosphere filled it make the original work easier for readers and viewers to understand.

Moreover, under the high pressure of the super blockbuster Superman return, he also won $38 million at the box office, which is very great. You know, his investment is not as small as that of Superman return, but the gap between the two sides is only 14 million, which is not very big, which makes Warner and the crew of Superman return look pale.

Mm has added another box office masterpiece. So far, all six giants have launched heavyweight works, but only mm has failed, which makes mark, who is in charge of MM's production and film selection, known as the "hand of God" throughout the United States.

After Sonny, the predecessor of MM group, was sniped, the stock price has been depressed, even in the MM era. The industry estimates that it may take ten years for mm to get out of the quagmire, and it must be integrated for ten years to rise again. However, under the leadership of the four giants, they just completed a gorgeous reversal in just half a year. Now the stock price of MM group is quite stable.

MM's success is a typical success of capital strength. Mm starts from the studio of the underground garage in wollenbaird district and expands itself through rapid M & A. mm has a magical power. Every M & A can quickly integrate enterprises, and then start a larger-scale M & A, from maconair film to marvel, from marvel to Columbia MGM film In the eyes of the outside world, Murdoch completed the merger and acquisition. It took Murdoch 30 years to establish News Corporation; leishidong 20 years to build his own media empire; mark only three years, Time magazine.

Mark has once again become a time magazine man of the year and a strong competitor to the top ten man of the year.

Mark took over the production review business of MM group from the beginning, which annoyed several leaders of MGM and Colombia. The investment and decision-making power of blockbusters belongs to the president of the giant company, which is almost the practice and embodiment of power of large companies. Mark said he would not seize power, but he did not hesitate to win a piece of fat meat. However, he is only responsible for film selection and review, not responsibility Corporate business.

Other companies are good candidates for the production department, and then apply for the company's project support, while mm is mark who selects the project and sends it to the production department and Distribution Department for project approval. Although he doesn't shout "I'm a tyrant, but I'm right!" like Joe Bangzhu, President of Pingguo company, all day long, he did.

In the early stage of enterprise growth, strong and powerful iron fisted leaders are needed, such as chambers of Cisco and Eisner of Disney. They are all people who lead the enterprise to become strong. Mark also has the characteristics of such strong people. Although he is young, he does not lack iron fisted means and decisive characteristics. It is no wonder that he has been ignored by time magazine for three consecutive years and has become a cover figure, People like genius and worship genius. Mark is such a person. With his success in the summer, egger boldly set the box office revenue of beimi at $1.8 billion!
