After finally sending Scarlett Johansson away, Ryan got up and left the Bel-Air mansion for Orion Pictures.
In the evening, in a private club, I had a long talk with Steven Spielberg.
During this period, Michael Kuhn presented a lot of data, trying to persuade Steven Spielberg to change his decision, so as to obtain the overseas distribution rights of "American Beauty".
However, Steven Spielberg's attitude is very firm, unless Orion Pictures can abandon "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and instead support "American Beauty" PR Oscar, otherwise DreamWorks is unlikely to change its decision.
It is naturally impossible for Orion Pictures to give up "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and in the end they can only leave with great regret.
In November, "American Pie 3: An American Wedding" produced by Orion Pictures and "Sleepy Hollow" produced by Paramount were released on the same day.
"American Pie 3: An American Wedding" is not only a sequel film, but the film investment is as high as 50 million US dollars.
The investment of "Sleepy Hollow" is also as high as 65 million US dollars, and the starring role of the film is the well-known Johnny Depp.
On the day of its release, "American Pie 3: An American Wedding" opened with a scale of 3,000 cinemas, a full 200 cinemas less than the originally planned scale of 3,200 cinemas.
No way, the films released at the same time are not only "American Pie 3: American Wedding", but also "Sleepy Hollow" produced by Paramount. The theater companies need to provide enough screening halls.
On Friday, November 19, "American Pie 3: An American Wedding" easily earned $12.22 million at the box office on its first day.
"Sleepy Hollow," which also opened on a scale of 3,000 movie theaters, earned $10.04 million at the box office on Friday.
That's more than $2 million less than the $12.22 million box office of "American Pie 3: An American Wedding."
Over the next few days, "American Pie: An American Wedding" took in $11.3 million on Saturday and $9.83 million on Sunday, while "Sleepy Hollow" took in $11.97 million on Saturday and $7.19 million on Sunday. box office.
Except for a slight drop on Saturday, the box office data of "American Pie 3: An American Wedding" has always been higher than that of "Sleepy Hollow".
However, the three-day box office gap in the first weekend of the two films is not that great.
"American Pie 3: An American Wedding" grossed $33.36 million in its three-day opening weekend.
"Sleepy Hollow" grossed $30.06 million in its first three days.
Only a difference of more than 3 million US dollars at the box office.
All of a sudden, there was a lot of discussion in the North American media.
They were even divided into two camps, each raising their flags and cheering. Some large casinos were unwilling to be lonely, and offered bets for the two films.
However, in fact, the competition between the two films is far less intense than what outsiders see.
"American Pie 3: An American Wedding" is a sexual comedy film, while "Sleepy Hollow" is a horror and suspense film. The audiences of the two films are different, and even if there is not much overlap.
Even Orion Films and Paramount film companies communicated privately to avoid unnecessary competition.
Both Orion Pictures and Paramount have shown a kind of restraint, and there is no incentive behavior.
When Hollywood film companies compete, they seldom really tear their skins apart. More often, they compete continuously for a long time until the other party is dragged down and the capital chain is broken.
This is the real purpose, not a lose-lose situation.
What's more, everyone knows that Ryan and Orion Pictures are not short of funds.
The box office trend of "American Pie 3: An American Wedding" can only be said to be not bad, not as good as the first two.
Except for the plot, plot, etc. in the whole film, it is indeed not as amazing as the first two films.
The competition of "Sleepy Hollow" is also one of the important reasons.
Ryan didn't pay much attention to the release of "American Pie: An American Wedding" and the competition with "Sleepy Hollow" Paramount.
For him, the "American Pie" series has already taken shape, and there is no need to waste too much energy.
In contrast, "Tomb Raider" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" are the focus of Orion Pictures' Christmas schedule.
As time approached December, Ryan personally participated in the promotion work of the two films, and participated in several media conferences and public relations dinners one after another.
Orion Films held internal previews for the two films, and Fan Xiang was pretty good.
Most of the outside world are more optimistic about "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". Not only has it won the Golden Lion Award, but the box office of the film in Europe is very good, reaching tens of millions of dollars.
At the Tokyo Film Festival in Japan in October, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" also gained a lot of money, winning multiple awards, and its release made quite a stir.
"Tomb Raider" is just the opposite. Since Orion Pictures released the first trailer, the cynicism in the media and the Internet has never stopped.
After all, asking a female actor to support an adventure action movie seems somewhat unreliable.
"Mr. Gosling, why did Orion Pictures choose to invest in such a film?"
A reporter from the "Los Angeles Daily" asked a very pointed question, "Don't you think it is a mistake to invest in a film adapted from a game? And it is too ridiculous to cast a female actor! "
"Can Orion Films recover up to 75 million US dollars of investment in the future!"
$75 million!
Many media reporters and Hollywood film companies are waiting to see the jokes of Orion Films.
With Angelina Jolie's box office appeal, it is impossible to support a commercial film with an investment of 75 million US dollars. Even Julia Roberts dare not say that she can support a commercial film with an investment of 75 million US dollars alone. Film.
"The success of Orion Films lies in its daring to keep trying."
Regardless of what outsiders think, Ryan said very confidently: "This will be a classic movie. For this, I believe in Angelina Jolie's performance."
Speaking of this, Ryan glanced at the reporter who asked the question just now, and said lightly: "This "Tomb Raider" is just the beginning. Next, Orion Pictures will continue to invest in the production of two sequel films."
Many people couldn't help curling their lips, spending 75 million US dollars in investment, asking Angelina Jolie to be the protagonist of the film, I am afraid that only Ryan Gosling can make it in Hollywood.
Who doesn't know that she divorced her ex-husband because of her lesbianism, and all kinds of negative news have been constantly in this period of time.
Among them, the lace news with Ryan Gosling has long been familiar.
Spending $75 million to pick up girls is not something everyone can do.
However, many people are waiting for the film to hit the box office and make Ryan Gosling vomit blood.
At this time, a reporter from the "Sun" said very bluntly: "Mr. Gosling, I think that instead of wasting $75 million on Angelina Jolie, it is better to find a better choice." .”
"There are a lot of beautiful actresses in Hollywood."
As soon as these words came out, the reporters around couldn't help laughing out loud, as long as they weren't fools, they could understand what he meant.
75 million US dollars is enough to drive countless Hollywood female stars crazy.
Instead of getting angry, Ryan shrugged his shoulders and said frankly: "Angelina Jolie has a very good figure and is very suitable for starring in "Tomb Raider". Laura was born for her."
Great figure!
All the reporters showed weird expressions, and they could easily think of unhealthy topics. Some people were already excited. This is a very newsworthy topic.
Did not continue the long speechRyan handed the microphone to Simon-West, got up and walked outside.
"You shouldn't have said that just now."
In the lounge, Helen looked at Ryan speechlessly, "Tomorrow morning's newspaper, the gossip about you and Angelina Jolie, will become a hot topic."
"Don't worry, she won't mind." Ryan also wouldn't mind.
For the two of them, the lace news didn't affect much,
Soon, Ryan talked about another topic, "The script of "Spider-Man" is basically revised, and I will let Kevin hand it over to you as soon as possible."
For the script of "Spider-Man", Ryan only wrote an outline and handed it over to Marvel Pictures to perfect it a little bit.
Ryan was a little dissatisfied, and revised it several times in the middle.
Overall, the plot has not changed much from the original.
