Chapter 760: split, independent

This night, Lyman slept very comfortably.

With a beautiful woman in her arms, a goal that can greatly expand the business has been achieved, and the two-year preparation has been successfully achieved.

I didn't set the alarm clock, and when I woke up, he was the only one left on the bed, so I knew it was getting late.

I took a look at my phone, and sure enough, it was 7:00 a.m. after 10:00 a.m.

Eva has been noticeably more motivated since she was brought into the filmmaking world.

Possibly enjoying the power to lead others.

Of course, he also likes it. Few people can refuse this power indifferently.

wash.

For breakfast, the housekeeper prepared slices of bread, milk, a little butter, and a hard-boiled egg.

When he gets to Firefly, there are many things waiting for him.

......

Juno was painted in North America on May 26, the day before the closing ceremony of Cannes, and it was shown overseas for a while, mainly because it was not released simultaneously, and there was a time difference. The total box office was $263 million.

Throughout May, the North American box office was up 13 percent from last year, a rise that makes Gein more competitive this year.

On May 4, the version of Spider-Man Tobey Maguire has come to the third part, and it won 151 million in the first weekend. People in the industry are also used to the amazing appeal of the little spider, and they can even think about this movie. It seems to be a little bit worse than the first two.

It's not that the box office is not good, but that the momentum is insufficient, or that it has hit the ceiling and can't pass.

Maybe Columbia also found the market like this, and because of Tobey Maguire or age or salary, director Sam Raimi insisted on restarting the Spider-Man series, which of course is a later story.

At this time, the North American box office of Spider-Man, which has been released for more than a month, has exceeded 230 million, and the global revenue is 570 million. Counting the 250 million of the production cost, as well as the publicity expenditure, such a beautiful result still has not paid off, and it will take time to accumulate. .

It was followed by DreamWorks Animation, which ate Shrek 3 from Paramount, the DreamWorks business.

This funny animation has always been loved by the audience, but after the film was released, it was still criticized.

It premiered on May 18 and won 121 million in the first weekend, and 200 million after half a month. Looking at the North American market, it is more appealing than Spider-Man 3, but overseas, adding up to 430 million in the world, is obviously still small. Spiders have more potential.

Then at the end of May, Captain Depp's Fantastic Journey to the Sea premiered on Caribbean No. 325, with a revenue of 114 million in the first weekend and two weeks of screening, with a total of 186 million in North America and 310 million in the world.

Several blockbusters competed to harvest the market, and batches of audiences emptied their wallets, which once again confirmed the emergence of the film festival under the rapid economic development of North America.

Cinemas have built new screens one after another. Compared with last year, there have been more than 3,000 more screens, and the total number exceeds 50,000, which can accommodate dozens of works to be screened at the same time. Qiqi's novels are first published on the whole network

Like in the past, a blockbuster may have 4,000 screens in the first weekend, which is good, but now it is the norm, and even 5,000 or 6,000 can be taken out, which is why the box office accumulation is so fast Billions have become uncommon.

The cinema chain is like the housing market. After 5 or 6 years of rapid growth, the housing market has begun to decline, and the cinema market still has great potential.

The dividends belonging to the times have also been enjoyed by most studios, but the big ones are still controlled by the top 5. Who makes them the best and most sourced?

In addition, the Dark Knight has entered the late stage, Twilight has also been filmed for a while, and I am the hero is more than half of the scene.

Warner Bros. has only one blockbuster this summer, and is fully looking forward to what Batman's second installment can bring to them.

On the other hand, Perlman's contact with major filmmakers has made the social fringe and her sell a lot of copyright proceeds. The two films combined are roughly 75 million yuan, which is not a loss, nor can it be said to be profitable. This kind of literary and artistic works has always been the case.

We can only see if we can make some profits by operating next year's Oscars.

After seeing the progress of several projects, Ryman went to Marvel Entertainment.

At this point, the changes in several management positions have come to an end.

Ryman himself serves as the chairman of Marvel, Joseph is the CEO, Joe Quesada is the president of the comics department and also leads the creative committee, and Kevin Feige is the president and project operations officer of Marvel Studios. . . . ..

The changes are not very big, and the middle-level personnel have basically been maintained, but the only surprising thing is that the Marvel Studios has been split, and it is mentioned that the same status as Marvel Entertainment is a subsidiary of Mann Media.

This kind of adjustment, naturally, is to avoid laypeople leading experts.

Lehmann is clear, the comics are good, but they don't necessarily make good movies. Just look at dc. The status of dc's film department is too low. Confused?

In the original time and space, one of the best things Disney has done is to give Marvel Studios great autonomy, asking for money for money, and for people to give, which is why Kevin Feige's calm layout.

In this way, even if Marvel Studios is prosperous, other departments can only watch, without leadership, and without merit.

Now, Lyman has made the same choice.

Of course, this makes Marvel veterans who have lost part of their right to speak unhappy, but at this time, they dare not mention it. In the film industry, outsiders can just watch it.

In any case, the success of the movie will lead to the dividends that most of Marvel's departments have, and even toy factories can make image peripherals.

Subsequently, Marvel Entertainment established a professional project team responsible for discussing the return of heroes with major producers.

Twentieth Century Fox, Columbia and other companies naturally refused, and even Universal, which held the Hulk's failure, was reluctant to make a move.

After all, for Universal, this is just a small amount of money, why should it be returned to Marvel, it is unnecessary.

But still working on it, some things will never be possible if you don’t mention them.

It is proposed, at least to let people know Marvel's plan, maybe there will be opportunities for cooperation.

......

I am a hero on set.

A Mercedes-Benz business drove to the parking lot on the side. Zha Dao knew that Laiman was coming to visit the class, so he asked his assistant to wait at the door.

This movie is related to the continuation of the zombie series, and it is of course impossible for Lyman to ignore it.

Seeing someone coming, the assistant greeted him happily, hoping that his face would be remembered by the big boss.

Walking in for a while, in the temporary studio set up on the New York location, Zha Dao waved casually.

"It's hard work, is it still convenient to shoot here?"

"I'm used to it, I'm still happy to see the scenes complete little by little..."

While talking, Zha Dao greeted someone to hand over a small folding chair to Lehman, "The conditions are not good, let's sit and chat, the actor is still wearing makeup."

After a few chats, Director Zha roughly explained the scenes of the filming.

The focus of this film is of course the middle-aged office worker played by Cage who is struggling to survive in the midst of a sudden disaster the zombie tide, the growth history of a little person and a little hero.

Except for the first big scene that was difficult to film, after more than a month of grinding, the rest of the literary drama went fairly smoothly.

This is mainly due to the fact that several actors are all acting, and there is no need to remind and tune the director.

Not to mention Cage, Joaquin Phoenix has a bit of toughness, and the two are working together for the second time.

As for other group performances who play zombies, you only need to be a good background board.

To a certain extent, this film is a one-man show. Except for the one that broke out at the end of Phoenix, the rest are all Cage show.

Strong, bloody, and responsible, it highlights the charm of the characters step by step, which is also the favorite rhythm of commercial films.

Wait for the actor to come out. Qiqi's novels are first published on the whole network

Cage saw the man at a glance.

"Hey, Lyman."

Cage came over.

During the conversation, several other supporting roles also gathered.

Lehman said hello to everyone, and there was nothing to say, nothing more than a good filming. If the movie was released successfully, he would give a big red envelope.

It's just that I inexplicably shook hands with Phoenix, who is still fleshy. Before I lost weight and played the clown, the muscles had a texture. Let him play the villain, and the face and body look like. Is it completely true to perform?

After waiting for a while, watching Zha Dao's command, I filmed the change in the main character's mind when he fled.

Cage came over again, "You said that the houses I own should be sold."

The recent drop in house prices has shrunk his assets.

"Why are you buying so many houses, and you can't live there anymore, let me keep two sets and let the rest go." Lehmann said solemnly.

"Listen to you."

After Lehman's point from time to time, Cage finally did not fall into the big pit of buying a house all over the world.
