Beverly Hills, inside the future world estate.
Ronan greeted an old friend, Chris of Sony Entertainment made a special trip to visit.
After visiting Ronan’s mansion briefly, Chris said apologetically:
I went to the Japanese headquarters to report on work before, and I came back early this month. I didn’t make it to your party. I changed my position in the past two days, and I was so busy. It’s not until today that I squeezed some time out."
Ronan smiled and said, "We are old friends, so don't be so polite." He took Chris into the first-floor meeting room and said, "Sit down, what would you like to drink?"
Chris waved his hand, looked at the modern and elegant decoration in the room, and said, "Ronan, your new home is jealous. Hey...being a boss is not the same as working for someone."
Ronan deliberately said: "I think Sony's salary is low? How about changing jobs to entertain the theory of relativity?"
Chris shook his head: "I just changed my new position."
"Promoted?" Ronan nodded seeing Chris and said, "Congratulations on the promotion."
He then asked: "What position?"
Chris is also a bit complacent: "Associate Director of Production at Sony Columbia Pictures."
Ronan often deals with Chris, and has a relatively good understanding of Sony Entertainment's corporate structure. This position belongs to the second-in-command of the production department of Columbia Pictures, and has firmly entered the top of Sony Entertainment.
"You should have a party to celebrate for three days." Ronan said with a smile.
Chris's originally contented smile suddenly felt a little bitter, and said, "Let's wait until I'm busy."
Ronan glanced at Chris and asked, "Have you encountered difficulties as soon as you took office?"
Chris nodded: "The beginning is always the hardest." He sighed: "But I didn't expect to face the most difficult situation."
Having said that, Chris stared at Ronan and said, "It's also related to you."
Ronan felt inexplicable and asked, "How can it be related to me?"
"In the first two years, before Sony Columbia won the overseas distribution rights of your "Human Removal Project", Sony Entertainment took the copyright of the "007" series from MGM." Chris said seriously: " You should know this?"
Ronan nodded: "I know."
Sony Columbia got the copyright of the Bond series earlier than the previous life due to the support of the Sony Group.
Chris said: "Before the shooting of "Death Another Day" started, Columbia Pictures decided that this was the last collaboration, and that Pierce Brosnan would be replaced in the future. It happens that Pierce Brosnan doesn't want to play James Bond anymore.
Ronan nodded again. These are not news. The news flooded the sky before the project of Die Another Day was established last year.
"Columbia Pictures has been looking for new Bond actors, and Jude Lowe was initially finalized." Chris suddenly sighed: "I started talking about it, but as soon as your "The Bourne" is released, Everything has changed."
He simply explained: "The response to "Doomsday Crisis" is not good, and the prospects of "Death Another Day" will not be good. There was a voice before Columbia Pictures that the James Bond-style agents are out of date. It just so happened that your "Bourage Bourne" hit the box office reputation, and many people think that such an agent route may not be suitable for James Bond."
Ronan had a guess: "So, you decided not to choose Jude Law, you are going to find a actor?"
Chris said seriously: "Actually, I think the style of "The Bourne Shadow" is very good. Although it cannot be completely imitated, there are some things that are worth learning. The old routine that James Bond has taken for so many years should also be changed. ."
Ronan looked at Chris: "Is this your personal opinion?"
Chris shook his head: "This is the opinion of most decision-making people in Sony Columbia." He smiled and said: "I am here this time, besides seeing your new home, I also want to ask what are the precautions for this type. "
There is nothing like "The Bourne" in the past special agent action movies.
What Ronan can say is also popular. After all, he is not a director: "Pay attention to the realistic style, the actors must be distinctive, and long professional training must be carried out before shooting. Matt Damon's training time before shooting was close to two months. "
"I'm not easy to do in this position." Chris said with a smile: "Especially the "007" series, if you do a good job without success, that is right. If you fail, the consequences will be serious."
Ronan and Chris have a good friendship, and he has no chance to get involved in the "007" series, and there is no competition between the two sides. He said: "When you think about it, do it, my personal opinion, the "007" series is indeed When it’s unchanged, it’s almost over."
Nowadays, audiences are getting tired of the personable James Bond. The box office and reputation of "007" have been declining in recent years, which is directly related to this aspect.
Ronan sent Chris away, and his previous changes to the "007" series were actually influenced by the "Bourne Shadows" series.
"The Bourneman" even changed Hollywood's special agent action movies. For a while, the screen was full of violent agents with hard bridges and horses, and then it was the same as the aesthetic fatigue caused by the "007" series, when the gentleman-style agents appeared again. , And have a good living space.
Therefore, movies always have to adapt to changes in society and the market.
What was even more unexpected by Ronan was that in the afternoon he received a call from Tom Cruise. Tom Cruise seriously discussed with him the possibility of Paul Greengrass directing the "Mission Impossible" series in the future.
"Aren't your movie appointments scheduled for three years?" Ronan asked.
Tom Cruise replied: "I am thinking about the future in advance."
Ronan thought for a while and said to the phone: "I personally feel that Paul is not suitable for Ethan Hunt's style. Ethan Hunt is taking a tall route. You can borrow some of "The elements generally recognized by the audience, rather than applying them all."
The two chatted little, and Tom Cruise quickly hung up the phone. He was currently filming "Minority Report" and was very busy.
Ronan estimated that it was Tom Cruise who saw the burst of word-of-mouth and box office of "The Bourne", and it was a whim.
Hollywood's follow suit is actually very serious.
It's just that Ronan didn't expect that one day even a company like Sony Columbia Pictures would come to follow his style.
The box office of "Bourne Bourne" hits the box office in the first week, and the launch of the sequel is also on the agenda. Sandsea Entertainment also officially held a press conference on Monday. It was announced by George Clint that Paul Greengrass and Tony Gilroy are currently The script for "Bourne's Hegemony" is being written, and Paul Greengrass will return to direct "Bourne's Hegemony".
This news has also rejoiced for book and movie fans. "The Bourne" has given Paul Greengrass enough recognition, and many people even think that no one is more suitable to direct this series than Paul Greengrass.
But negotiations with Matt Damon will take a while, and Matt Damon is preparing to switch to caa.
This star actor who always likes to jump between Caa and William Morris seems to be ready to start the job-hopping mode.
For self-confident stars, the longest Hollywood brokerage contract is only three years, and it will be changed after three years.
Some people jumped more and more happy, some people jumped more miserable.
Matt Damon belongs to the former, and Halle Berry is a typical example of the latter.
Many media and organizations have also analyzed the success of "The Bourne Shadow", and most people have quite the same view.
The most important point is more real.
On the one hand, Jason Byrne played by Matt Damon is very close to the real spy: he looks ordinary and unobtrusive.
In addition, unlike the James Bond in 007 and the special agents in the Mission: Impossible series, Byrne always has an affair, always has unrealistic technological means, and always has money to spend. He fits the audience’s perception very well. The way real agents work.
As for whether the actual agent is this way of living, I have to ask the CIA.
Ronan plans to release the next two sequels of "The Bourne" every other year. This is the most suitable release rhythm for the trilogy series. Otherwise, the crew will be under too much pressure to film, and it is very likely to bring audiences. Of aesthetic fatigue.
Sometimes, a little distance may not be a good thing.
Ronan has no ideas for the fourth and fifth parts of the previous life, so there is no need to worry.
However, one thing is certain, the style of "The Bourne" is definitely not suitable for 3d screening.
The most distinctive feature of this column is fragment editing and handheld photography, and the biggest feeling it brings to the audience after the conversion into 3d is-shake!
It hurts my eyes, and I want to vomit.
Ronan has personally felt that this is similar to the dizziness and nausea of some people playing first-person 3d games. Simply put: your vision tells you that you are exercising at high speed~EbookFREE.me~ but your body tells you, If you sit still, your brain will be confused and you will be dizzy.
At that time, a large number of viewers had to leave less than half of "The Bournemouth 5". Of course, the cinema at the terminal could realize this phenomenon for the first time, plus the media, especially the new media with a different influence than before. Under the dual pressures of the film and the distributors, especially the consideration of "market factors", the 2d version "conformed to public opinion" was added just two days after the film was released.
Perhaps a certain director is right that the biggest use of 3d is actually to shoot small pornography.
Just this week, "The Bourne" appeared on the cover of the newly published "Vanity Fair" magazine.
"Vanity Fair" uses Matt Damon's Jason Byrne as the picture, and is supplemented by extremely eye-catching text.
"A "Spy Shadows" has changed all the audience's impression of the spy war story. There are no more high-tech equipment specially provided by the government, no more exotic beauties in long skirts. Civilian perspective and follow-up shots give the film An excellent sense of substitution, and Bourne’s way of dealing with the enemy based on local materials reveals the ingenious ideas of the main creative everywhere."
""The Bourne Shadow" is the best spy film, it deserves its name."
