Under such circumstances, "Chain Saw 4" kicked off its release on October 25.

Unlike the previous three "Saw" films, this one is co-published by 20th Century Fox and Orion Pictures.

On the day of its release on the 25th, "Chain Saw 4" opened in North America with 2,850 screens, and earned $14.75 million at the box office on Friday.

On the second day, it dropped by 26%, with a single-day box office of 11.02 million US dollars on Saturday, and another 35% drop on Sunday, with a single-day box office of 7.56 million US dollars.

A total of 33.33 million U.S. dollars in box office was earned in the first three days of the weekend, which is not a perfect box office figure, and it is far inferior to the three-day box office of the first two "Chain Saw".

However, the shooting cost of "Chain Saw 4" is slightly less than "Chain Saw 3", only 10 million US dollars.

Ryan has watched "Saw 4" several times. Compared with the original version, the difference is not too bad. There is no special selling point, which can make people's eyes shine, and there is also no poisonous point. It can only be said to be ordinary. Pass.

It is reasonable to achieve a box office of 33.33 million U.S. dollars in the first three days of the weekend.

As for the reputation of the media and professional film critics, it is no longer within his consideration.

With the gradual rise of the Internet, the group of film critics is not far from being eliminated. Even some newspapers and magazines will face the impact of the Internet and even close their doors.

It's a pity that the film audience's word-of-mouth is also not very good. Coupled with the large number of commercial blockbusters released in November this year, many theater companies believe that the final North American box office of "Chain Saw 4" will hardly exceed 70 million US dollars.

However, the global box office prospects for "Chain Saw 4" are not bad, and it is expected to be between $130 million and $140 million.

The film's director, Gregory Hoblit, once again faced a major blow, at least according to the press.

However, in the eyes of Orion Films and Twentieth Century Fox, although it is a bit of a pity, "Chain Saw 4" is not only a failure, but has already achieved commercial success.

The shooting cost of the film was only US$10 million, but it earned US$33.33 million at the box office in the first three days of the weekend, which easily recovered the shooting cost and publicity expenses, and then it will generate a lot of profits.

"Saw 4" has achieved commercial success, and it is expected to recover tens of millions of dollars in profits. The employees of Orion Films breathed a sigh of relief, and they have greater expectations for the upcoming "Terminator 3". confidence.

"Really decide to temporarily freeze the "Chain Saw" series?" Jon Felthammer's face showed a trace of solemnity.

For Orion Films, the "Chain Saw" series of films is not just an ordinary series of films, but a guarantee of performance.

Even though the box office of "Chain Saw 4" is slightly unsatisfactory and its reputation is poor, it has not failed in business.

In the eyes of many film companies, instead of temporarily freezing the shooting of the entire series of films, they will continue to shoot.

"Let's suspend it for a few years."

Ryan shook his head. For the time being, he does not plan to continue filming the "Saw" series. "When I have time, I will write a new horror film script and hand it over to Orion Films for approval."

This time he is not planning to cooperate with 20th Century Fox, at least for North American distribution, it will be completely handed over to Orion Pictures, and overseas distribution can continue to cooperate with 20th Century Fox.

Hearing Ryan's words, Jon Fertimer felt relieved, and his face showed a gleam of joy. It is well known in Hollywood that Ryan's ability in horror movies is definitely the top.

Whether it is the four "Chain Saw" scripts or one "The Evil Spirit" script, all of them have achieved commercial success.

"Twentieth Century Fox may have some opinions." Jon Felthammer expressed his concerns.

Twentieth Century Fox will definitely have different opinions if it suddenly freezes the filming plan of the "Chain Saw" series.

"After a while, I will explain it to 20th Century Fox myself." Ryan waved his hand, telling him not to worry.

The reason why this decision was made was that the box office and word-of-mouth of "Chain Saw 4" were not ideal.

There is another reason. Four films in the "Saw" series have been released in three consecutive years. Even if it is about the wonderful content, the audience will feel fatigued.

What's more, "Scream" jointly released by Dimension Films and Miramax Films will be released soon. In the future Halloween schedule, it is impossible for the "Chain Saw" series to dominate. New changes must be made. .

Like a new horror movie.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Ryan got up and left Orion Pictures.

Back in Bel Air's mansion, Ryan put some of the ingredients he bought into the refrigerator, turned around and walked to the second floor, went back to the room to find a bathrobe, went to the bathroom, opened the door and walked in.

Although he has a servant, he still visits the shopping mall occasionally, which is a habit brought by his previous life. He even plans to wait until spring to plant some grapes and fruit trees outside.

Walking into the bathroom, Ryan stretched out his hand to test the temperature of the water. The temperature was just right, with a layer of rose petals floating on it, so he took off his clothes, walked into the bathtub, lay down casually, and squinted his eyes for a while.

This bathtub is polished from a single piece of stone, and the area is large enough for several people to use together.

Of course, the price is also not cheap, the price is as high as 100,000 US dollars.

Not long after, he was attracted by something not far away.

Not far from the bathtub, there is a bamboo basket that is not very big. Inside are a few changed bras, panties, stockings, pure black, with a circle of lace on the top of the bra, and a pair of black **** in the panties. The stockings are a pair of long black one-piece stockings.

It should be Charlize Theron or Penelope Cruz, who dropped off last night.

I guess I left in a hurry in the morning and forgot it in the bathroom.

Even though Ryan had tasted the taste of the two of them a long time ago, when he saw the **** lingerie, pussy, and stockings in the bamboo basket, he still had a strange feeling, as if there was a kind of voyeuristic stimulation.

Without hesitation, Ryan reached out and took the black hair. It was very soft, with a faint lingering warmth, exuding a nice perfume smell. It was not Penelope Cruz's usual perfume, but Charlize Cyprus. The smell of perfume on Long's body.

Calanne, a French luxury perfume, sells for as much as $1,100 per ounce, and it looks like liquid gold in about 30 milliliters.

Just when Ryan was sure who the owner of the black underwear in his hand was, there was a sudden knock on the door outside, "Did you see the underwear I just changed out of?"

It sounds like Charlize Theron.

Ryan blinked, looking at the black gun in his hand, feeling like being caught by someone peeping.

"The door is not locked."

The next moment, Ryan calmed down and said to the outside: "Honey, do you want to come in and have a drink together?"

As soon as the words fell to the ground, Charlize Theron was wrapped in a towel, stretched out her hand and pushed open the bathroom door and walked in.

When she saw Ryan holding a very familiar black pistol in his hand, she looked at herself with undisguised enthusiasm.

Charlize-Theron was stunned for a moment, then looked at Ryan speechlessly, and said, "If you like it, I can give it to you."

She has long been accustomed to Ryan's slightly perverted behavior, and even played more perverted games together.

Of course, for the two of them, these are just the adjustments in life, and both parties get a happy feeling.

"A very special gift."

Ryan took it under his nose, sniffed it lightly, and it seemed to have a smell of roses, and then he blinked at Charlize Theron, "My dear, I prefer this black dress." need you."

"The bathtub is very big, it can accommodate one more person."

The bathtub in this master bedroom is not only suitable for one more person, even if there are two people, it is very spacious, and there is a lot of water in the bathtub, and it is also very deep, so many people can take a bath together.

Charlize-Theron rolled her eyes But she didn't refuse, walked to the edge of the bathtub, took off the towel on her body, and walked in.

"I just washed it once." She said angrily.

"Then wash it with me." Ryan put his arms around Charlize Theron's smooth skin, and his attention began to shift downwards.

Just when the two needed to omit 10,000 words, there was a sudden sound of high heels stepping on the floor outside the bathroom.

Ryan stopped the movement of his hands, and asked Charlize Theron in his arms: "Is Penelope back?"

There are only a few women who can wear high heels in and out of this mansion at will. Among them, Cindy Crawford is far away from the filming crew in New Zealand, while Helen and Sophia rarely come here, and the same is true for Mia.

As for the maids, they don't walk around in high heels.

Only Penelope Cruz would come over at this time, and she stayed here last night, and the three of them played a lot of crazy tricks.
