Chapter 537: Star screenwriter

Entering November, the holiday seasons of the North American film market kicked off, and market competition became extremely fierce, especially the two official holiday seasons in November.
First came the veteran memorial day holiday file. New Line Pictures’ holiday file custom film "Christmas Elf" made the first shot. This film cost only 30 million US dollars and won 3100 in North America during its first weekend of release. At the box office of more than ten thousand dollars, while being hot, it also announced that the horror atmosphere that has been rampant in theaters since Halloween has completely disappeared.
Affected by this, the box office of "Dungeon Siege" continued to decline, and the North American box office for the third weekend of the release had fallen to $4.2 million.
However, the North American box office of this film has exceeded 60 million US dollars.
There is a clear understanding within Embassy Pictures that the lifespan of "Dungeon Siege" in North American theaters will not exceed December.
At the same time, the North American screening of two other films released by Embassy Pictures came to an end.
First, the plasma horror film "Saw Cry".
This genre is famous for its short projection life. "Saw Cry" has been in theaters in North America for nine weeks before being released. It can be considered as a longer-life movie of the same type.
After nine weeks of screening, the North American box office of "Chain Saw" reached US$87.21 million. Compared with the production cost of US$1.5 million, it once again created a miracle for Relativity Entertainment.
Having said that, horror movies can be said to be the most common genre with small and big news. Hollywood basically has horror movies with low cost and high box office every year, especially some veteran series of horror movies. The investment is not high, but the box office returns are good.
"Chain Saw" has also been screened overseas for some time, but compared to North America, the film's overseas response is much worse, and the current overseas box office is only more than 30 million US dollars.
The global box office of this film has been infinitely close to 120 million US dollars.
Subsequently, after more than four months of screening, "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" also rolled off the line in North America.
This film has caused much more repercussions than "Chain Saw", and it can even be said to have changed the pattern of Hollywood movies. Pirate movies have since revived, causing countless people to devote themselves to the great pirate career, and then be overwhelmed by stormy waves.
There is only one Captain Jack Sparrow!
The North American box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean" fell above 388.77 million U.S. dollars, and the overseas screening of the film has not yet ended. It is expected that the global box office will reach about 778 million U.S. dollars.
After the film was released, the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" convened a press conference in Rosario, Baja California, and announced that the two sequels "The Coffin of Souls" and "The End of the World" had officially begun shooting.
All the main creators of "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" have all returned, and Xiao Ma, who has considerable appeal in the Eastern market, has also joined the cast through auditions.
In addition, when Ronan discussed the script with director Gore Wibinski and others, he clearly asked them to make certain changes to the script. Don’t talk about Jack Sparrow, Will Turner, and Elizabeth Swan. Inadvertently engage in a love triangle.
In many cases, the inexplicable tangled love triangle is not pleasing. Elizabeth Swann was very unwelcome to fans in the latter two films. The reason lies in the ambiguity with Jack Sparrow, and that A terrible kiss.
Kiss Elizabeth Swan who died.
Perhaps it was because he had been poisoned by too many film and television dramas, Ronan felt that the love triangle or something was really a bit of a response.
Rather than a love triangle, it is better to let Captain Jack Sparrow and the little blacksmith Will Turner fall in love and kill each other, so as to attract a large number of rotten female audiences.
Of course, Ronan is also thinking about it. If he really wants to do this, regardless of the market response, it is estimated that the whole crew will oppose it.
It is not after all that homosexuality belongs to the protection of animals more than ten years later.
The next weekend after "Christmas Elf" produced and released by New Line Pictures, "Mean Girl" released by Embassy Pictures will be released.
After checking the news and news about "Christmas Elf", Ronan found a familiar name. The director of this comedy was called-Jon Feiru!
There is currently no famous director in Hollywood.
But Ronan remembered him very clearly. Even though he had never seen himself since he came to Los Angeles, he still remembered what Jon Fyre looked like. For example, Jon Fyre was a big fat man with a very humorous temperament.
Because it used to be the driver and bodyguard next to Iron Man Tony Stark, who seemed to be called Harpy.
The most important thing is that Jon Finn not only played Harpy, but also the director of "Iron Man", a film that really reversed Marvel's situation and formed Marvel Dafa!
This can be said to be one of the important characters in the Marvel superhero movies. Later, with the help of Marvel's springboard, he directed many heavyweight commercial giants and embarked on the pinnacle of life.
Such as "Fantasy Forest" and the true-animal version of "The Lion King".
Ronan carefully looked at Jon Feiru’s information and found that he had already had a direct connection with the Marvel superhero movie. Jon Feiru played the role of "Dareful" released by Twentieth Century Fox in the first half of this year. It's the one starring Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner, but it's not the main role.
This "Bold Man" is also a typical failure of Marvel's superhero movie.
Ronan took down Jon Feiru's name, but would not contact him for a short time. The Avengers project has not yet started.
Later, Ronan returned to New York again to attend the premiere of "Mean Girl" in New York.
This is a film about youth campus women. The brand was promoted during the promotion. At the premiere, it was naturally a gathering of young and beautiful girls.
Liz Capan, Rachel McAdams and Amanda Seyfried stepped onto the red carpet.
Although some of them are twenty-five and sixteen years old, pretending to be tender is the basic skill of a Hollywood actress. Dressing up as a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl walks on the red carpet without any pressure.
This film also encountered some trouble, especially in the rating, it was almost rated R by the rating committee. Fortunately, after the last time, Ronan told George Clint to pay more attention to this aspect, and the film was sent to The scale of the rating committee is smaller and the time is earlier, leaving plenty of buffer.
The six major companies are both cooperative and competitive. Just like DreamWorks, they use methods within the rules.
For example, this weekend, there was a top big production produced by six major companies. It was produced and distributed by 20th Century Fox, starring Oscar actor Russell Crowe, and the production cost was close to 120 million U.S. dollars. "Strongly start painting.
The production cost of "Mean Girl" is only 15 million U.S. dollars, in front of the giant "Raging Sea", it looks like a minor child.
"Furious Sea" is also one of Hollywood's top productions in 2003, a real commercial giant.
Once this film was also the beginning of Russell Crowe's decline.
However, it is undeniable that the release of "Furious Sea" at the same time has squeezed the screening space of "Mean Girl" in theaters to a certain extent. The latter's film arrangement and number of theaters are not as good as the former.
There are as many as 3,201 theaters in "Furious Sea", while "Mean Girl" has only 2,840.
The only good news is that the target audience of "Mean Girl" is very clear, and the overlap with "Furious Sea" is low.
In the face of powerful competitors at the same stage, Ronan, a man who rarely appeared directly in front of the media, rolled up his sleeves and went into battle in order to promote "Mean Girl".
Standing in the media area, Ronan was interviewed by reporters.
"I think girls who try to undermine other people's lives secretly are smart." Ronan said of the original novel: "This book touched me because of the anecdotes the girls told in interviews. They seem to be very interesting. I mean, the methods of fighting between girls are so clever and complicated."
He then pulled Lindsay Bill to his side and solemnly introduced: "This is Miss Lindsay Bill, the screenwriter of the film. She is also the "Twilight", "The Hunger Games" and "Fifty Shadows of Gray". The original author of the three female-themed novels is a very talented woman ~EbookFREE.me~ who has previously completed the script of "Summer of Jeans", which is the female-themed film launched by Embassy Pictures in June."
It can be said that this is the first time Lindsay Bill actually appeared in front of the media. Despite the decent smile on her delicate face, she clenched her fists nervously.
Ronan did not hesitate to praise, saying: "The script "Mean Girl" that Lindsay completed alone is the best youth female theme script I've seen in years. Lindsay knows the girls' thoughts very well, and the script is well written. It’s very realistic. It really shows the fierce competition between American middle schools and girls. Girls who have already experienced and will experience middle school life will resonate with the story of the film."
Having said that, Ronan handed the remaining interview time to Lindsay Bill, nodded slightly to encourage her, and briefly confessed to the public relations staff who followed him, and then left the media interview area and headed towards Walk to the theater.
Coming to the entrance of the theater, looking back, Lorna found that Lindsay Bill had been surrounded by the press.
A good-looking female screenwriter is very topical, and a good-looking and very talented female screenwriter is more topical!
In the future, there will be celebrity directors, as well as celebrity screenwriters.
Lindsay Bill also wears the aura of the author of the three novels "Twilight", "The Hunger Games" and "Fifty Shadows of Gray". If her popularity is high enough, it will be a good thing for future film changes. .
Ronan took the time to chat with Amanda and quickly entered the theater. In the VIP room, he had a conversation with Lauren Weisberg who came to participate in the premiere. Lindsay Bill walked with a tired look. Come here.
Next to her was a blonde girl who seemed to be under twenty years old.
