Near the end of February, the North American film market has entered the end of the winter season. The North American box office of "Terminator 3" reached 280 million U.S. dollars, which basically exhausted all the market potential. In the last seven days a week, it only gained more than one hundred dollars from the market. million dollars at the box office.
In the overseas box office market, the popularity of "Terminator 3" has also gradually faded, leaving only a few sporadic countries and regions that can still obtain good box office revenue. The growth rate of other major markets has also become very slow.
Of course, the overseas box office of "Terminator 3" has exceeded the US$300 million mark, and with the US$280 million box office in North America, the global box office of the film has reached US$580 million, and it is estimated that there will be a certain increase in the future. In the end, the global box office should It can exceed $600 million.
Although it is slightly worse than the $800 million global box office of "Independence Day", it is still very dazzling.
Even in the global movie box office rankings, it is second only to "Jurassic Park" with a box office of 1.032 billion US dollars, "The Lion King" with a box office of 968 million US dollars, "Independence Day" with a box office of 817 million US dollars, "Forrest Gump". "Biography" grossed $677 million.
The staff of 20th Century Fox and Orion Pictures were almost crazy with excitement, wishing the whole world could know the news.
The happiest among them should be the shareholders of 20th Century Fox. Within a year, the box office of two consecutive films exceeded 280 million US dollars in North America and more than 500 million US dollars in the global box office.
The market value of Twentieth Century Fox has increased a lot, and many people have made a lot of money because of it.
Ryan, the director of the film and the president of Orion Films, looks very ordinary. Even if "Terminator 3" can finally have a global box office of more than 600 million US dollars, it is still very ordinary in the previous life.
A total of 100 films were listed in the previous global movie box office rankings, and even the last film had a box office of more than 770 million U.S. dollars.
With "Terminator 3"'s global box office of 600 million US dollars, it doesn't even make it into the top 100.
And compared to the ranking, Ryan is more concerned about the sales of the film's peripheral products.
The sales of "Terminator 3"'s peripheral products in North America reached as high as 230 million US dollars, and the sales of peripheral products in overseas markets were equally gratifying, reaching more than 200 million US dollars.
According to the sharing contract signed by Twentieth Century Fox, Orion Pictures and a number of product manufacturers, they can get 30% of the sales.
That is to say, the gross profit gained from "Terminator 3" peripheral products alone can not only recover the investment cost of the film, but even make some profits.
This still does not take into account the advertising revenue in the film, the peripheral copyright revenue, and the North American box office share, the global box office share, etc.
However, the popularity of "Terminator 3" has passed, and the next income from peripheral products can only be accumulated slowly over time.
Don't underestimate this point. Although the income from peripheral products will become less and less over time, it will not stop and will become a long-term stable source of income.
That's why Hollywood studios like to acquire libraries of film rights.
In the most difficult time, Disney relied on its huge income from film copyrights, and finally survived, and even transformed into a media group.
At the same time, the robbery in North Hollywood happened as scheduled, and the atmosphere in Los Angeles became extremely tense. On the street, you can see police patrolling with guns everywhere.
In just a few days, due to the public opinion of the society and the media, some government departments in the United States finally decided to carry out a comprehensive change of the police department.
It can be said that the U.S. police department and arms companies are the biggest beneficiaries of the North Hollywood robbery.
On the opposite side of the benefits, in the North Hollywood area that was most affected, many families chose to temporarily move away from North Hollywood, and even Helen, Sophia and others chose to temporarily minimize going out.
Orion Films, Star Economy, and other companies located in North Hollywood have stepped up their security.
A group of security companies in Los Angeles are the second largest beneficiaries of the incident.
Ryan didn't care much about these things at all, he just asked Daniel Green to upgrade the security system of the Bel Air mansion.
In addition, several bodyguards were hired, and Ryan himself stayed in the editing room with Chris Paul all day.
After procrastinating for more than ten days, Nate-Shyamalan finally finished filming "The Sixth Sense" and returned to Los Angeles from New Zealand.
If Ryan had been filmed instead, the film would have been released by now.
"The Sixth Sense" is not so much a spooky thriller film, but rather a drama film. The plot in the whole film does not have any horror scenes, and does not require special effects. It is more about dialogue scenes and atmosphere creation. .
However, the crew's shooting time is somewhat speechless.
In fact, Knight-Shyamalan also felt aggrieved, not because he didn't want to shoot quickly, but because the acting skills of the leading actor Scarlett-Johnson in the film were far from meeting his requirements.
As soon as the crew started filming, Knight-Shyamalan stopped over and over again. The short shot of just over ten seconds took a full half a day to shoot. In the end, he had to lower the requirements, which was considered barely passed.
In the face of an underage girl, he can’t be angry, he can only cheer and encourage, otherwise he will not mention Scarlett Johansson’s identity, and the relationship with Ryan, just the underage protection organization and the American Parent Teacher Association , can make him want to live and die.
It's not that Scarlett Johansson doesn't have acting skills. She just won the 12th Independent Spirit Award for Best Actress nomination for her role in "Manny and Lo".
At least among the underage actors in Hollywood, Scarlett Johansson's acting skills have been recognized by many people.
Even Disney approached her, wanting to sign a long-term contract with her, but Helen directly refused.
Disney's underage actors, although they can quickly become famous, are also a kind of shackles, few people can break free, and Disney's child stars have always been notoriously chaotic Besides, Scarlett Johansson There is no shortage of good screenplays.
It is enough to show that Scarlett Johansson's acting skills are fully qualified for the roles in most Hollywood films.
However, for the characters in "The Sixth Sense", Scarlett Johansson seems to lack a trace of spirituality.
According to Knight-Shyamalan's requirements for the character itself, it should be a little angel who really loves, not a weird girl with problems.
Fortunately, the filming was stumbling into a small half, and after countless adjustments, Scarlett Johansson seemed to have gotten the hang of it, and it was completely different from when she first joined the filming crew, as if she was a different person.
While Knight Shyamalan was happy, he was also a little worried. The contrast between Scarlett Johansson's state before and after was too great, which could easily make people feel awkward in the film.
In desperation, he could only discuss with producer Frank Marshall, Bruce Willis and other leading actors of the film to make a reshoot of the scene that Scarlett Johansson had filmed earlier.
To put it bluntly, it is a reshoot.
Frank Marshall did not hesitate for long, and agreed directly. Including the New Zealand government's tax rebate subsidy, the crew's funds were completely sufficient.
Neither Ryan nor Paramount made explicit objections.
Only Bruce - Willis' agent said that Bruce - Willis needs to finish filming as soon as possible and join another crew.
Knight Shyamalan could only change the filming plan, focusing on shooting scenes about Bruce Willis first, and promised him that he could stagger the shooting time of another crew.
As a result, the filming progress of the entire crew has been delayed again and again, and the filming of all the actors has just ended not long ago. Nicole Kidman returned to Los Angeles at that time.
