The shooting time passed quickly, and I was in a daze. When I came back to my mind, a month passed.
Kate Beckinsale's scenes are all over and have left the group, while the remaining crew members are taking a flight to Paris, France.
On the plane, Eva Green sat next to Lehman, leaning her head tilted on top of him.
Her scent can be carried in the breath.
Inexplicable two people will give birth to unexplainable dependence.
I vaguely remembered that I had said a lot of refusal and couldn't promise anything, but she did.
Lyman put down the newspaper in his hand and looked down at her.
It doesn't look very smart at first glance, no wonder it's so stupid.
Hope time will let her see clearly the nature of a man, or a man like him.
Silently some thoughts, looking at the clouds cascading, and quickly pressed down.
He was never a sentimental person, and he didn't want to be sentimental even after a new life.
When we are together, we will be together, and we will separate when we are no longer together; love is love, and not love is not love; if you can't give, you can't give; where are so many good thoughts?
Everything in the world will become more complicated by thinking more.
”Are you tired?”
”Yeah.” Eva Green said, getting closer.
After finding a more comfortable posture, this behavior was stopped.
Lehman continued to let her lean while he read the newspaper seriously.
There is an article analyzing the report of the American film industry, which makes him very interesting.
......
With the pace of May slowly approaching, there is another year of competition in the box office during the summer vacation period.
For major production companies, 2002 was a mixed blessing.
The good news is that the box office of the movie market last year increased by 760 million U.S. dollars from the previous year. As of this year, as of today, April 12, the total box office results totaled 3.762 billion U.S. dollars, setting a new record in the box office market during the same period. , Which means that the film market will have growth potential;
The worry is that this year’s average movie ticket price has risen to US$6.03 per movie, which is nearly 18 cents higher than last year. This means that the number of viewers has dropped by about 3%. This is the first time the number of moviegoers in the past four years. There has been a decline, and with the rise of home entertainment such as TVs and DVDs, this trend is likely to continue.
Lehman nodded when he saw this.
This media person really has a vision, and the market forecast is not bad.In later generations, with the rise of various electronic games, mobile phones, online media and other entertainment, it has indeed shared a large number of people in the film market. The U.S. film market has indeed shown a decline, and more young people no longer love it. Movie theaters are watching movies. The direct consequence of this phenomenon is that Hollywood pays more and more attention to overseas markets: Japan, South Korea, China, etc., actively seeking cooperation, eager to open the situation.
This is driven by the general trend, and there is nothing to say.
Continue reading, the article also analyzes the development prospects of film genres.
One: Comedy is the top spot.
The past two years have been a time when comedy movies have exploded, and three of the top six in the box office list are comedy genres.
And these films can achieve good box office results, in addition to excellent quality, it can also show the fact that the audience needs to relax too much.
The main reason is the current social atmosphere, because the ongoing struggle with Iraq has always been the top concern in the United States, and it is also the most reported content of all TV stations. It is obviously comedy to receive the signals of this kind of war every day. The film became the first choice for people to walk into the cinema.
The numbers on the box office list conform to this psychology, and also show that comedies that make everyone laugh will always be welcomed by the market.
Two: The sequel movie is still the most secure production.
At the end of last year, ”Entertainment Weekly” had selected the 10 most anticipated movies of 2003, and the two sequels of ”The Matrix” ranked first, which once again demonstrated the audience's reaction to the market's choices and also verified The favorite production law of Hollywood studios is to maintain the development of sequels to popular films.
With this kind of thinking, this year's sequel movies are almost flooded, and preliminary statistics have at least 20.Among them, ”X-Men 2”, ”Terminator 3”, ”Jedi Men 2”, ”Fast and Furious 2”, ”Charlie Man 2” and other films have a momentum, and there is rarely a loss.
It can be seen that, for film companies, sequel production can be described as a way to make money with minimal risk and a clear return.
Three: Female subjects prevail.
It seems that after entering the new century, an obvious trend in the American film industry is slowly emerging, that is, more and more female-themed films.
Works that only target the female audience market are often pretty good. For example, ”Hot Mom and Hot Girl” won a local box office of 110 million US dollars. This was unimaginable before. You must know that there is no male in this film. The main role is a purely female theme.
The emergence of so many female films may be due to the increasing recognition of feminist thoughts in American society in recent years. On the other hand, it may also show that the proportion of women in the total audience is increasing.
Four: The rise of movie themes adapted from comics.
