Chapter 973 (1/2)
Another box office week for the summer season in North America came to an end on June 26, when daenerys entertainment premiered the summer season's only blockbuster movie, guillotine valley.
From June 21 to June 27, last Friday's three major new films did not pose any threat to the release of next week's ”007 ghost party”. The box office decline of this old spy series blockbuster next week remained very good at 37%, earning $56.22 million.
Two weeks after its release, the local box office of 007's ghost party quickly reached 145.39 million US dollars.
Coming into July, the summer program has been open for nearly two months. The only one that can keep up with the spirit party of 007 is mission impossible 2. In the fourth week of release, the box office of ”mission impossible 2” dropped 43% in a single week and closed at $15.94 million, ranking second in the weekly box office list, with a cumulative box office of $177.18 million.
Third is police Empire starring Sylvester Stallone.
The first week box office of this crime thriller, which all stars only take the basic salary of the trade union, is 12.76 million US dollars. If we measure it by the production cost of only 10 million US dollars, ”police Empire” is definitely the most cost-effective movie starring Stallone in recent years.
In the first week, the box office is expected to be around $25 million, which is enough to make a small profit for danielis entertainment.
The fourth place is Disney's ”freak of the clock tower.”.
This old-fashioned 2D animated film adapted from Notre Dame de Paris sold for more than 9300 US dollars in the first week, close to 10000 US dollars, which is higher than 7500 US dollars of police empire. However, because Disney has lost confidence in 2D animated films, it only gave 1297 opening screens of ”freak of the bell tower”, and the box office of the first week of the film was only 12.03 million US dollars After the police empire.
The fifth place is Spielberg's new work ”the fury of breaking locks”.
The first week box office of the slave uprising movie was only $7.36 million, which is the worst performance of Spielberg's directing works in recent years. Considering that it's not the end of the year when we can take advantage of the long-term development of the award season, the film has a mediocre start, and it's almost impossible to turn over in the future.
As a result, it has been reported that paramount and the DreamWorks founded by Spielberg are at odds.
Simon naturally knows the details.
Paramount was dissatisfied with Spielberg's making this kind of unpopular film, and urged the director to make some films like Jurassic Park, even if he could restart ”Raiders”. Although Spielberg has established DreamWorks, he has become more inclined to his own preference. To put it bluntly, he only shoots the subjects he is interested in.
In fact, many commercial film directors have this kind of problem. After they become famous, they will inevitably make some artistic or profound films.
As a result, the two sides were at odds.
Moreover, DreamWorks also accused paramount of making a serious mistake in the release strategy of lock breaking rage, believing that the film is more suitable for the award season at the end of the year than the summer season. All in all, different from the honeymoon period in the original time and space, the two sides only started to cooperate this time, and within a few years, cracks have appeared.
In the final analysis, it is because of the birth of danielis entertainment.
In the past, after the peak of Jurassic Park series, Spielberg seems to have never directed any phenomenal box office blockbusters, and it seems to have started to go downhill. In fact, it is not the case, because the legendary Hollywood director is more behind the scenes, and people can find out whether the world's best-selling ”man in black” series in the 1990s is still in its infancy It's the transformers series after the new century. Whether it's science fiction blockbuster the big bang or Ridley Scott's war epic Gladiator, Steven Spielberg's name is on the producer list.
Now, this kind of ubiquity, which should belong to Spielberg, is not only replaced by Simon. Relying on the increasingly powerful danilisi entertainment, Simon also pushes this ubiquity to another height, a height that is gradually controlling the whole Hollywood.
Malibu, daenerys studios.
Kate Beckinsale, who spent the whole afternoon touring around the film city, watched the busy scene in this large film and television base. Though indirect, she clearly felt a kind of ubiquitous control. She could not help but feel some awe for a young man who was not a few years older than her.
Near the end of the day, Kate and her maid once again come to the post production center on the second floor of the studio. She enters a editing room with extra guards and finds another girl, Natasha henschucci, here.
I know.
They are not familiar with each other, so there are more sparks when they look at each other, and Kate regrets that she should not be able to bear the boredom of running around.
”The catcher of hearts”, which started shooting in April, has recently been released, and Kate has also returned to Los Angeles.
I learned that the man would watch the sample film with Gus Van Sant, the director of mind catcher, and discuss the later plan. After calling, Kate also came along. However, from two o'clock in the afternoon, Kate only stayed with her in the editing room for less than half an hour and lost patience. The man kindly sent her to play, so he ran out .Because of a special identity, Kate can be unimpeded in the studio.
As a result, I saw a film team full of people in each studio on the first floor, Pixar studio on the second floor and a large number of people busy with various kinds of Denise special effects in the later stage of the film, and the rush of people coming and going in the office building on the third floor.
It's a totally different feeling from the rest of Los Angeles.
It's not enough to describe it with vitality. To be more precise, Kate even felt a strong aggressiveness from it.
This is just one of the many film and television bases of danielis entertainment.
has been developing for many years, not just the Burbank, but also a universal studios that can act as a studio. Danireis entertainment has already had a diverse base of film and television on the east coast of the United States, Melbourne in Australia and Toronto in Canada.
What's more, according to Rachel, who officially went to Australia to join the crew of Titanic last week, it's just that the 20 hectare shooting base of Titanic on the Golden Coast, a famous tourist resort in the south of Brisbane, on the east coast of Australia, is no less than a film and television base. It can be imagined that after the shooting of Titanic, there will be a big gap It has developed into another danelis studio.
This kind of grand occasion is only comparable to MGM in the golden age.
At that time, Louis Meyer's MGM Dynasty had as many as six shooting bases in Los Angeles, which can be called the city of the city. Now, danelis entertainment has spread its shooting bases all over the world.
Less than 10 minutes before 5:00 p.m., Kate enters the editing room. A man is still watching the sample film with Gus Van Sant. Natasha henschucci is quietly holding a magazine and sitting on the sofa in the rest area waiting patiently. In fact, Kat, who is somewhat coquettish, is very clever and does not disturb her. He also finds a magazine and directly works in Natasha Sit down next to me.
After a little hesitation, Kate habitually tried to take the initiative and asked, ”what are you doing here?”
Natasha henschucci thought that Kate would not talk to her. Seeing that she offered to speak, she looked up at Simon, who was busy in front of the workbench not far away, and whispered, ”I'm coming to a production meeting.”
There is not much explanation.
But Kate said at once, ”is it the” extreme cold ”
