Chapter 485： Unstoppable
The impact of popular movies is all-round, especially for Hollywood studios, following the trend is always one of the least risky production models.
Just when Ronan held a production conference and determined that the second two sequels of "Pirates of the Caribbean" would be filmed in a set shot, some news in the Hollywood circle was also circulating.
Many production companies, including the six major companies, are discussing the feasibility of shooting new pirate films.
For studios, it is never a shame to follow suit.
Ronan didn't care about this kind of things either. Strictly speaking, he didn't do anything that followed suit.
For example, "Hurricane Rescue" is a typical work that follows the trend of "The Bourne Shadow".
Moreover, it is not enough to follow the trend once. The sequel of this film has also been put on the agenda. Because Liam Neeson is filming "Batman: Hour of War", filming will not start until next year, and it will be released in 2004 or 2005.
In the previous "Hurricane Rescue 2", Liam Neeson was too old. Many action shots had to use a lot of substitutes and relied on post-editing series, resulting in a very clean and wonderful action scene in the first part. The second part is a bit horrible.
Don't worry about this now. Because of his age, Liam Neeson is in good physical condition. He has filmed "Hurricane Rescue" and "Batman: Hour of War" and has been receiving professional training.
Ronan's plan is to finish filming the "Hurricane Rescue" trilogy before Liam Neeson's physical condition completely declines.
"Pirates of the Caribbean" then ushered in the second weekend after its release in North America.
As a typical movie year, in this crowded summer archive, you can see big-name productions everywhere.
This weekend, "Jedi Men 2" produced and released by Sony Columbia, produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, directed by Michael Bay, and starred by Will Smith, will be released.
Not to mention anything else, just look at the list of the main creators to know the strength of this action crime movie.
Moreover, the production cost of "Jedi Men 2" is as high as 130 million US dollars, which is definitely one of today's top productions.
Ronan also came to Miami from Los Angeles at the invitation of Will Smith and Sony Columbia to participate in the premiere of the film.
In 1994, gold medal producer Jerry Bruckheimer collaborated with the little-known commercials and MV director Michael Bay to produce "The Men of the Jedi", and the leading actors selected Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, who were new to the film industry. In one fell swoop, it was expected to become Columbia Pictures’ box office and profit champion in 1995, earning more than 140 million US dollars in the global box office.
"The Jedi Men" thus became the stepping stone for Michael Bay, Will Smith, and Martin Lawrence to enter Hollywood, and film videos and DVDs also flourished in the following years.
In particular, Michael Bay and Will Smith, the successful transformation brought about by "Jedi Men" has also made them world-class movie characters.
The former is recognized as the "explosive madman", and the latter is honored as the "Historical Emperor".
This is a typical Michael Bay movie, a typical work full of male hormones, and it can be regarded as a direct manifestation of the driving force of human desire to destroy.
The big American Hummer traverses the small bungalows in Cuba. The real man Will Smith never looks back at the explosion!
As for the plot logic, there is no such thing in Michael Bay's movies since "Break into Death Island", and there is no need for such a thing.
Even unreliable oil workers can fly into space and pierce an asteroid. What's the point if a real man never looks back at the explosion?
Once on the Internet on the other side of the Pacific, someone commented on "Jedi Men 2", Will Smith and Martin Lawrence were in charge of the Jedi Men, and Michael Bay was in charge of 2...
But in the eyes of film company owners and investors, these have never been a problem.
For example, Ronan, Sony Columbia, Walt Disney and other producers who have worked with Michael Bay, believe that Michael Bay is definitely a good director!
It's worth more than David Lynch and Woody Allen added together and multiplied by five.
For the films directed by Michael Bay, you never have to worry about financing, nor do you have to worry about no one investing, because the current Michael Bay is worth every dollar invested by the film company.
Like the films of great art directors, investors and producers must carefully calculate how much money can be reaped at the box office and how much can be recovered offline. After all, it will take a few years to operate the offline market to generate profits.
Starting from directing the first film, "The Men of the Jedi", Michael Bay’s films never seem to require the producers to worry too much about this issue.
"Jedi Men 2" is no exception.
On the first day of its release in the North American market, this action crime blockbuster earned $16.88 million, squeezing out "Pirates of the Caribbean" and becoming the box office champion of the day.
"Pirates of the Caribbean" dropped to second place with $14.85 million.
However, Michael Bay’s films have always been well-received, and the trend is mostly high and low. Although the crazy explosion attracts the audience, it also easily causes aesthetic and visual fatigue.
If "Pirates of the Caribbean" is a commercial fast food movie that tends to be younger, then Michael Bay's film is the super fast food in fast food.
Generally speaking, because Friday is a working day, and Saturday is a typical day off, many movies have a better Saturday box office than Friday.
However, this regular box office trend is obviously not suitable for real men who never look back at the explosion.
On the second day of the release of "Jedi Men", that is, Saturday of that week, the box office fell 4% in a single day to $16.2 million.
However, "Pirates of the Caribbean" showed strong vitality and momentum of rebound. It received 17.41 million US dollars that day, snatching back the single-day box office title from "Jedi Men".
The good reputation of the audience has allowed Pirates of the Caribbean to maintain a stable and strong box office trend.
When the second weekend passed, the box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean" was only 35 percent lower than that of the first weekend, and another $46.86 million was collected.
Although "Jedi Men" has been showing a declining box office trend during the three days of the opening weekend, the overall performance is also quite good, and the opening weekend reported $46.52 million.
"Pirates of the Caribbean" came from behind and won the North American box office chart again, while the newly opened "Jedi Men" can only be ranked second in the box office list with a slight disadvantage.
Two weeks after its release, the North American box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean" easily exceeded the $100 million mark, and it earned $151.92 million in just ten days.
This pirate movie not only swept away the previous decline of the same type of movie, the box office was extremely hot, and more importantly, under the good reputation of the audience, it drew an extremely stable box office trend.
At the same time, statistics from the offline distribution department of Embassy Pictures were also sent to Ronan. "Pirates of the Caribbean" has an infinite charm that has affected the entire movie market and countless fans. While the box office is booming, it has also driven the surrounding area. With the hot market, related peripheral products sold for nearly 30 million U.S. dollars in ten days.
In addition, six or seven companies have begun to negotiate with Embassy Pictures for the authorization of "Pirates of the Caribbean" related products.
The market in this area is very large.
After the release of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets", Warner Bros. once authorized the copyright of the "Harry Potter" series of merchandise. A total of twelve companies have obtained a variety of merchandise authorizations, while Warner Bros. has only ten The license fee for the term of the year is more than 320 million US dollars.
Many big-selling movies are out of the audience's sight, and the output value they can create is much higher than that of theaters.
The momentum of "Pirates of the Caribbean" in North America was quickly spread overseas by today's developed media network. The overseas promotion and distribution of Embassy Pictures are also in full swing. Starting in mid-July, this pirate epic blockbuster has been promoted. Europe, Latin America, East Asia and Australia are the most important international film markets in Hollywood.
Thanks to the film’s popularity in North America and its steadily rising box office, as well as the film’s strong commercial properties and the unique charm of blockbuster films, "Pirates of the Caribbean" was released overseas, which also set off a wave of pirates.
If the little blacksmith Will Turner took the route of the orthodox steel macho, and it is not uncommon in Hollywood movies in the past, then the charm of Captain Jack Sparrow can be described as "unstoppable".
"Johnny Depp was born for the most enchanting role of Jack Sparrow."
"The enchantment between Jack Sparrow's hip step and the orchid finger makes people drunk."
"The moment when the movie really took off was when Captain Jack ran away for the first time. He grabbed the rope and swayed up, down, and out like a swing. My heart remained in that happy state until the movie. End."
"A good-looking movie, the plot is really catching, and Depp is so handsome! Ah! Ah! Ah!"
"The enchanting captain of the pirate instantly reminded me of a sentence --- forgive me for the bohemian love of freedom in this life!"
It seems that every time a movie is released in a country or regionThe charm of Captain Jack Sparrow can easily conquer the fans there.
Perhaps the evaluation of the British "Times" speaks out the aspirations of many people.
"Captain Jack Sparrow, a crazy character above the plot! Johnny Depp, a magical personality actor! The screenwriter of the film is awesome, compact, and amazing special effects. How can you not love it! "
Before Captain Jack Sparrow appeared, no one would have thought that such a free madman, a bohemian, righteous and evil pirate, could have infinite charm.
As a result, "Pirates of the Caribbean" has become inevitable overseas.
In the three days of the Australian premiere weekend, "Pirates of the Caribbean" scored almost crazy $6.6 million, which was even higher than "Spider-Man."
In the first week overseas, "Pirates of the Caribbean" collected $63.57 million in more than 30 countries and regions.
Just when Ronan held a production conference and determined that the second two sequels of "Pirates of the Caribbean" would be filmed in a set shot, some news in the Hollywood circle was also circulating.
Many production companies, including the six major companies, are discussing the feasibility of shooting new pirate films.
