It is not an easy task to transfer a complete comic to the screen, and it must be adapted.

Knight-Shyamalan's adaptation of the original manga is quite successful.

Ryan is not a fan of the original comics, and he hasn't even read the original comics, just judging from the movies played on the screen and the box office.

This is a good suspense science fiction film, not a superhero film, but a suspense science fiction film.

Not any character in a comic can be made into a superhero movie.

It can be said that only Marvel Comics and DC Comics can become superhero movies.

From the box office, "Undead Tribulation" has also achieved success.

The box office of "Undead" in the previous life was 95.01 million US dollars in North America, 153 million US dollars in overseas box office, and 248 million US dollars in the global box office.

From a commercial point of view, this is a very good film.

But don't look at Knight-Shyamalan's success and risk choosing to follow suit.

Ryan couldn't help but think of "Alexander the Great", which is a typical follow-up film.

Hollywood makes all kinds of waves from time to time.

Examples include the blockbuster "Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring," and the upcoming "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone."

These two films are bound to set off a wave of magical and epic films in Hollywood.

However, there are almost no films that can sell like "Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" and "Harry-Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone".

Even, there are only a few films that can be called successful.

According to Ryan's memory, almost all the fantasy and epic films produced by Hollywood in the future will be blockbuster movies. As long as you see the inscriptions of magic and epic, more than 80% of them will be blockbuster movies.

However, none of the fantasy and epic films had a small investment, and the last time it cost hundreds of millions of dollars.

"Alexander," for example, had a budget of $155 million.

Therefore, there are several trends in Hollywood that cannot be followed.

For example, "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" and "Harry-Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", and "Pirates of the Caribbean".

Those who follow the trend of films with these themes are unlucky.

In addition, cooperation with Knight-Shyamalan must be very cautious.

In his previous life, Knight-Shyamalan directed many blockbuster films, such as "The Sixth Sense", "Undead" and so on.

But there are also a lot of blockbuster movies, and even the six major Hollywood film companies have been cheated.

It doesn't matter which film company works with Knight-Shyamalan.

Then congratulations, there is more than 90% chance that this film will make the production company vomit blood, and there is a 10% chance that it will be a big hit at the box office.

Totally an expensive gamble.

There are also comic book adaptations, which also need to be cautious.

North American comics are a little better.

Rui En didn't even bother to ask for the copyrights of those manga adaptations in Japan.

In the previous life, with the big sales of Marvel Comics and DC Comics superhero films, Hollywood film companies not only set their sights on Japanese manga copyrights, but also obtained a seemingly good movie adaptation copyright at a very low price.

However, a live-action movie adapted from Japanese manga is simply a big pit.

From "Dragon Ball", "The King of Fighters", "Ghost in the Shell" and so on.

Among them, "Ghost in the Shell" starred Scarlett Johansson, with a shooting cost of 110 million U.S. dollars, but only got a box office of 169 million U.S. dollars.

This is the global box office, not the North American box office.

It can be regarded as one of the failed films starring the widow sister.

Of course, there are relatively successful works, such as "Edge of Tomorrow" and "Transformers" starring Tom Cruise.

Hasbro only owns part of the character copyright of "Transformers", and part of the character copyright is in the hands of a Japanese company called TAKARA.

In the rest, there are almost no successful blockbuster films.

However, Hollywood has bought a lot of Japanese animation copyrights.

"Naruto", "Dororo", "TIGERBUNNY", "Gunmeng", "Reaper", "Akira", "Girl in the Shell", "Nippon Shukugoku", "Battlestar"...and so on.

In the previous life, there is an incomplete list of Japanese ACG works that various large and small American production companies have bought the adaptation rights.

Orion Pictures just picked and picked and bought the copyright of "Transformers".

As for Edge of Tomorrow!

Ryan asked someone to inquire, but there was no name of this comic at all.

I don't know if it hasn't been published yet, or when Warner Bros. changed the name when "Edge of Tomorrow" was filmed.

Ryan is not interested in the copyright of the rest of the comics.

The North American box office market wants to be exclusive. Instead of buying a lot of useless comic copyrights, it is better to focus on Marvel Pictures.

This is the future development direction of Orion Pictures.

After the screening of "Undead", Ryan and Angelina-Jolie returned to the residence and put on a very ecstatic performance.

During the period, Adriana Lima joined in midway.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Angelina-Julie's long eyebrows moved a few times, and then gradually opened her eyes, and saw the clothes scattered on the ground, and Adriana-Lima beside her. smile.

Last night, Adriana-Lima made her feel absolutely wonderful.

The only pity is that Charlize - Theron needs to go to New York to participate in the crew's promotional activities.

"what time is it!"

Ryan woke up, held Adriana Lima in his arms, and gently stroked her, feeling the smooth and warm body, which was very comfortable.

"It's almost nine o'clock." Angelina Jolie glanced at the time on the alarm clock.

Then, she turned around and began to put one hand around Adriana Lima's waist, and the other hand slowly stroked down along the smooth and white belly.

"Can't you stop for a while?" Adriana Lima felt the touch on her body, and couldn't help snorting, "Don't forget, today is the release time of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone."

"The movie theater just opened." Ryan didn't mean to stop at all, and repeatedly grasped the soft place on Adriana Lima's body with his hands, "We still have a while."

Movie theaters generally don't open until around nine to ten o'clock.

It's not even nine o'clock, and most movie theaters in North America aren't open yet.

Before Ryan could finish speaking, Angelina Jolie wrapped her hands around Adriana Lima, kissed her earlobe, and gave Ryan a provocative look.

Seeing Angelina Jolie's provocation, Ryan was naturally not to be outdone, and buried his head in Adriana Lima's chest...

The next moment, another big show was staged in the room.

Ten thousand words are omitted below.

"To take a shower together?"

The passionate scene ends with Ryan kissing Angelina-Jolie on the red lips and making what appears to be a very good proposal.

Angelina Jolie shook her head with a smile, and pushed Adriana Lima with her hand, "Sorry, I'm going with Lima."

After speaking, Angelina Jolie and Adriana Lima jumped out of bed and walked towards the bathroom completely naked.

Ryan shrugged and looked at the time. It was almost half past ten. He got up, put on a nightgown, and walked to another bathroom.

After coming to Los Angeles for several years, he has gradually understood why there are several bathrooms in every mansion.

Because one bathroom is simply not enough.

After washing his body briefly, Ryan came to the living room and opened the curtains. The dazzling sunlight shone in, making him feel very warm.

First he called the restaurant to deliver a sumptuous lunch later, and then he called Nancy's number, "What's the situation?"

London time is eight hours faster than Los Angeles It is eleven o'clock in the noon in Los Angeles, and it is already seven o'clock in the evening in London, and "Harry-Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" is showing for a daytime.

"Indescribable."

Nancy-Utley's exclamation came from the phone, "I seem to have seen the scene of "Titanic" when it was released in London, it was full, and all theater companies are urging Warner Bros. to increase the number of copies. .”

"According to data from Warner Bros., "Harry-Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is likely to earn $30 million in box office by next Monday, and the total box office is likely to exceed that of "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring."

"The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" has been released from the UK, and it has received a total of 63.03 million pounds, which is more than 90 million U.S. dollars.

"For the next "Harry-Potter and the Chamber of Secrets", we'd better get the overseas distribution rights and hand over the North American distribution rights to Warner Bros."

"Orion Films can't always be in charge of North American distribution." Nancy Utley's tone was very serious.
