Chapter 313 Who else can stop the flame movie?
”Kagoki! Kakagi! Kakagi! ...”
On the big screen, Victor, played by Tom Hanks, looked at the news reports on the TV screen and excitedly shouted the name of the motherland. At the front of the screen, the screening hall of the ”Happiness Terminal” was mostly uninteresting. , A few were in a state of excitement, and several audiences yawned boredly; another equally lively ”Furious Speed” screening room next door, ”Home, sweet home!” Two big muscle men sat in the sports car and started the engine, Another hurricane! The young audience couldn't help sitting upright.
There was a burst of laughter in the hall of ”Crazy Dodgeball”; the enchanting children in the auditorium of ”Harry Potter 3”; ”I want to go home! I want to go home!” After Kedu did n’t step into the truth of New York, the old man with a mop stopped the plane to take off, watching the old man arrested by the airport police, and watching everyone find ways to help Victor walk out of the airport to complete his father ’s signature dream. Some people in the ”Happy Terminal” were very moved and their eyes were moist; however, a large part of them laughed out of laughter.
Last minute rescue! Just like Andrea, who slammed Miranda at the end of ”The Devil Wearing Prada”, the typical Hollywood ending and countless commercial methods. But Steven Spielberg did too bad this time, too stiff and too obvious! At this moment, a lot of film critics from all over North America were very dissatisfied, too old-fashioned, and the whole movie was full of pretentiousness.
It's like a great director doing minor work! Jeffrey Anderson of ”Movie Film” shook his head, which was really disappointing! Since the ”Save the Soldier Ryan” in 1998, Spielberg's movie is not as good as one in the past six years. If ”i Artificial Intelligence” is still a little touched, there are some novelties in the ”Minority Report”. ”Is a delicious entertainment commercial, so what is this” Happiness Terminal ”?
”This is the worst movie in the history of Spielberg.” 1. Charles Taylor, who is also the ”Salon” magazine, has already thought about this movie review. For now, Steven Spielberg is more like an encounter. After the rule of the office building, ”Saving Soldier Ryan” won the second Oscar for best director award, he slowly couldn't even make a commercial film. Now ... it's numb!
Since the magical Yang, who was born in 1998, after taking the Oscar, he made three commercial films in a row. The last one was finally unconcerned. No big director style is needed. Go back to work as a minor. ”New York Watch” film critic Andrew Sarris sighed depressively. It's really uncomfortable to watch bad movies every day. What are the nerves of Steven Spielberg and Wang Yang, the two old directors?
The calendar on the wall was turned several times, and the 18th-No. Ended this weekend. Every time there is a new film release weekend, Stefan Spielberg will shut himself at home, cut off all contact with the outside world, do not listen to phone calls, do not read text messages, do not go online, do not watch TV, do not want to be in contact with any Everyone knows his habit of the information about the new film's results, so he will not bother and irritate him intentionally.
The three days of ”Happiness Terminal” are no exception. Early on Monday, Spielberg came to the DreamWorks corporate headquarters, wandered here to see there, and waited for work time before he arrived. Department Office. Seeing that the employees were not elated, Spielberg suddenly felt a little nervous. Was it really like the response evaluation during the screening? He asked quietly: ”How? The film's grades are okay?”
”50,000.” Jim Sapp, the manager of the business department, didn't say how, and directly reported the box office results. 50000? Although he hasn't paid much attention to the company's finances, Spielberg is very sensitive and professional at the box office. Once he hears this number, he knows what it means, mediocre. It may not even win the North American championship. Jim Sapp walked with a detailed report of the scattered field data, and said in a deep voice: ”The third place on the weekend; and the reaction of the film critics is not very good ...”
Really ... really like the response from the audition? There is no hope of shocking the Oscars. Isn't it even a summer popcorn movie? The first one is ”Furious Speed”? Spielberg's face became a little silent and ugly, and nodded: ”I know.” He didn't go to the report, turned away from the bank, and walked to his director's office. Now that the movie has been released, let's prepare for ”World War”! The box office and film reviews are good; he does n’t want to lose to George Lucas and the young man in the 6-year Saturn Award for Best Director.
After all, I ’ve been accustomed to wind and waves for many years, and I am also the holder of the North American director ’s total box office champion. The loss of ”Happiness Terminal” did not cause Spielberg to be frustrated. This time, Waterloo, Wang Yang, who was chasing behind, etc. , But gave him a feeling of pressure, not that finances are nothing, but purely ”directors”, how many years have not tried such heavy pressure? For ten years ...
Looking at the five-year market release schedule in his hand, Spielberg, who was sitting on the office chair, suddenly shook his head and smiled somehow. It was really lively. ”Roaming Guide to the Galaxy” on April 29, and Ridley on May 6. -Scott's ”Kingdom of the Heavens”, May 19th Old Friends George Lucas' ”Star Wars Episode 3”, June's commercial ”Smith and Wife”, June 17th Children Darren Arohams Ji's ”Batman”, ”World War” on June 29, ”Fantastic Four” on July 8 ... There is also a ”Firefly” by the younger Wang Yang who is scheduled for June.
Old friends, children, George Lucas, Wang Yang ... Let's meet next summer! Spielberg turned on the computer with a smile, and calmly browsed the specific response of ”Happiness Terminal”, but he was thinking about not filming ”World War” better. How could he be willing to see them and join in the excitement?
Just watching a film critic said ”” Happiness Terminal ”is a disgrace to Spielberg's directing history”, he already knows how bad its reputation is, no one has taught anyone, the fact is that another big director is planted on the light comedy The freshness of the rotten tomatoes included in the movie review was 55% and 51%, both of which were a pile of green rot; the audience's likeness did not save the face, only a mediocre 72%. This is a score that is only 1% different and can be labeled as ”bad film”.
”It feels like there is no sincerity and dogmatic perfunctory work.”-2/4 points, Yami Bernard, ”New York Daily News”, ”A sweet and delicate comedy.”- 3.5 / 4 points, Roger Albert, ”The Chicago Sun”; ”A bad film, really bad film.”-2/4 points, Richard Collis, ”Time” Magazine; ”Fatty and contrived.”-2/4 points, Glenn Lovell, ”San Jose Mercury News”; ”The little fun it provides is completely dependent on the audience without doubting the reasonableness, indulging in incredible In the story. Believe me, addiction is necessary. ”-2/4 points, Peter Howell,” Toronto Star ”...
With such a bad reputation response, and the fact that the film itself has problems, and the lack of explosiveness in the theme story, June 18-24 is going to be night, ”Happiness Terminal” has not shown a tendency to reverse, just Wan harvested to the third place in the week.
This is two years after the release of ”Minority Report” in June of two years, Steven Spielberg once again released a new film in the summer holiday file, but did not receive the weekly championship, but this is also the second time. Since the release of the ”Great White Shark” in the June 1975 issue, it has received US $ 470 million in global box office (1.8429 billion after 11 years of inflation adjustment). Since the creation of the summer blockbuster (1mmer-b1b1er) and the concept of the summer vacation period, the ”Happy End” ”Station”, Spielberg has a total of 11 summer blockbuster.
The first nine titles include 384 million global “Individual Adventures” in 2011 (1.1115 billion after inflation adjustment); 792 million “e .. Aliens” worldwide in 1982 (adjusted 557 million); ”Pakistan 2: Indiana Jones' Temple” 333.3 million in the world (adjusted 789.1 million); 1989 ”Raiders 3: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusader” in the world 474 million (adjusted 945 million); 93 years ”Jurassic Park” global 914.6 million (adjusted 1.756 billion); 97 years ”Jurassic Park 2: The Lost World” global 618.6 million (adjusted.72 million); 98 years ”Save the Soldier Ryan” global 4.81 100 million (adjusted 810 million); o1 year ”i artificial intelligence” global 235.9 million (adjusted 331.7 million).
A series of amazing record numbers ended in the first ”Minority Report”, because the difference of 3.74 million box office lost to ”Star Baby”, and finally 358 million (adjusted million) in the world; then the ”Happiness Terminal” A two-game losing streak, a faceless failure.
Fans who previously wanted to pick things up have nothing to say. Regardless of the social impact of box office awards, Wang Yang ’s achievements are far inferior to Spielberg, and there is still a long way to go to say and catch up. And the premise is not to become Kevin Costner. However, a lot of things are going to be the night style in the past. In terms of ”Happiness Terminal” v ”The Devil Wearing Prada”, it seems that the former has no way to harvest 500 million.
”Is Steven Spielberg old?” This is the question of many people. I have to say that this is really a big blow and it makes people lose confidence; but according to the gossip of ”friends”, Spielberg does not think so. News from Yahoo Entertainment said: ”He is very angry and full of fighting spirit now. He will prove himself again with” World War ”, and maybe there will be another one next year.” It is understood that ”World War” with an investment budget of up to 130 million It is still in the preparatory stage and is scheduled to start shooting in November.
