Chapter 795： Lifetime
As a screenwriter when Simon Kimberg graduated from college, the script of "Smiths" had been circulating in Hollywood for many years, but no one was shot into a movie, until Relativity Entertainment acquired Artisan Pictures, and Ronan worked in Artisan Pictures. In the script library, I saw the script, and then the project was established.
Once this film was moved to multiple companies before it was approved.
The personal charm of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie completely suppresses the plot of the film.
Regardless of whether this charm is released in a positive way, it eventually attracted a large number of audiences into the theater to watch.
The first weekend of "Smiths" in North America, it was in 3925 theaters within three days, and it was reported to be $68.79 million.
This film also ended the two consecutive titles of "World War" and successfully topped the North American box office charts.
On the other hand, even though the audience's live ratings in theaters were only b, they gave North America an estimate of $230 million.
The reason for giving box office expectations that are inconsistent with the audience’s reputation is entirely due to the super gossip of Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie.
Because of the propaganda effect of super gossip, the total investment of Embassy Pictures in the announcement of "The Smiths" is only 50 million US dollars.
This action blockbuster with a total investment of 150 million U.S. dollars, according to market feedback inside Relativity Entertainment's expectations, the global box office is expected to reach 550 million U.S. dollars.
Looking at the quality of the film alone, "Smiths" does not seem to be worthy of such a box office, but the film market has never been determined by the quality of the film.
It is not uncommon for a film to reach the level of sensation like "Smiths".
Not every film can be lucky enough to encounter such super gossip.
The influence of actors on the film is sometimes great.
Ronan did not allow Relativity Entertainment to intervene in this matter from the very beginning. After refusing Angelina Jolie, Embassy Pictures’ publicity for "Smiths" mostly stopped.
The incident has now proceeded, and the overall situation of "Smiths" has been decided.
After the film was released, more reports and rumors about Jennifer Aniston and the child appeared in the media. Obviously someone was pushing it secretly, not only to divert the attention of public opinion, but also to whitewash themselves.
Jennifer Aniston was completely silent over there, it seemed that this matter had nothing to do with her anymore.
The latest news that Ronan got, Jennifer Aniston left North America and went to Africa to participate in charity events, temporarily staying away from the whirlpool of public opinion in Los Angeles.
In some ways, Angelina Jolie achieved her goal and won this love war with an unusually tough posture.
Of course, the winner is "Smiths".
This is also the only film released in June by Relativity Entertainment. All the energy of Embassy Pictures has been transferred to "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Soul Gathering Coffin".
The first film's big sales laid a good audience foundation for the second film.
Since its release in 2003, Captain Jack Sparrow’s fans have increased day by day, becoming one of the most popular Hollywood movie images since the New World.
Johnny Depp also seems to have a tendency to become Captain Jack Sparrow in reality.
In order to cope with the promotion of the film, Johnny Depp has been in constant action recently, and Captain Jack Sparrow has frequented all over the United States.
Today, the captain accepted the invitation of Ronan and Tom Cruise’s Frozen People Charity Foundation to go to the nursing home to see the sick child.
Tomorrow, between receiving a letter for help, the captain parachuted to a middle school in Los Angeles to "punish" the arbitrary principal.
Ronan had previously talked with Johnny Depp’s agent. Under the strong constraints of the brokerage company and the contract, Johnny Depp was relatively cooperative for the time being. During the publicity and announcement process, there was no outrageous incident. .
But Johnny Depp’s problems with alcoholism are getting worse.
Robert Zemeckis has already talked to Shahai Entertainment about directing "Alice in Wonderland". Ronan will definitely not invite Johnny Depp for the role of Mad Hatter.
This project is under the leadership of Robert Zemikis, and the pre-planning, the rhythm of shooting, production and publicity, is completely based on "Avatar" as the standard.
In addition to the latter's continued preparation for special effects at Weta Studio in Wellington, several assistants of James Cameron led a team to some famous scenic spots for location inspections.
Any actual location will not exist alone. The future will inevitably be integrated into the special effects production scene of the film in some form.
In the future, there will surely be a large number of scenic spots around the world, rushing to say that the so-and-so shot of "Avatar" comes from my own.
It's a common phenomenon in the world to get hot.
James Cameron returned to Los Angeles in mid-June, had an interview with Ronan, and brought a performance video of Jessica Alba testing motion capture, highly recommended by Jessica Alba Acting as the heroine of Namie.
The heroine will not have any real-life shots in the film, and all appear in the form of motion capture. Jessica Alba has participated in the experiment and production of motion capture special effects. Ronan will of course not object to it and let Sha Hai Entertainment sent someone to negotiate with Jessica Alba’s agent.
Although James Cameron claimed that "Avatar" would only be filmed for one, and there was no plan for a sequel, Ronan was mentally prepared for the sequel.
One of them is to sign a long-term contract with the actors.
Jessica Alba was originally a small star who was barely able to make it to the second-tier. The "Fantastic Four" that just starred in the film was messed up again. The pay is very cheap. According to the usual standards in the circle, the pay for "Avatar" is not the highest. Will exceed half a million dollars.
If nothing happens, Shahai Entertainment can do it for $300,000.
Ronan tried out James Cameron’s plans for the sequel and didn’t talk to him about this issue. However, after the success of "Avatar", he will personally communicate with James Cameron on this issue. .
How can't the sequel to "Avatar" become a lifetime series.
Once the sequel to "Avatar", the schedule has been pushed back and forth. Many fans who grew up watching "Terminator 2" and "Titanic" even joked that the biggest regret in life in the future may be that they did not see " Avatar 2" now.
bouncing votes has become the norm in the sequel of "Avatar".
Of course, this is not to say that James Cameron has made enough money and is not motivated to shoot new films. A large part of the reason lies in film technology.
James Cameron has always wanted to use new filmmaking and projection technology in new works.
There were rumors on the Internet that James Cameron was working with Sony Pictures to develop a new naked-eye 3D technology.
These news are true or false, and it is difficult for fans of the past to judge.
As a pioneer of new film technology and a director at the forefront, James Cameron attaches great importance to technology far beyond ordinary people's imagination.
In the preparations of the "Avatar" crew in Weta Studio, many shooting scenes need to operate some shooting platforms and software specially developed by James Cameron's team.
These are the results of James Cameron’s accumulation over the years.
It is no exaggeration to say that a director without years of technical accumulation will never achieve such a huge technical success as "Avatar".
James Cameron has been at the forefront of Hollywood in terms of technology since the filming of "Alien 2".
The special effects production of "Avatar" is not enough to rely solely on James Cameron's team. Weta Studio is required for motion capture, and Industrial Light and Magic is responsible for more special effects production.
The production of such a movie is like super engineering.
At the same time, Neil Blomkamp, deputy director of special effects production for the James Cameron team, also negotiated a cooperation with Shahai Entertainment.
Neil Blomkamp sold the copyright of the short film "Aliens in Johannesburg" to Shahai Entertainment for a token price of $1, and got the opportunity to direct the feature film.
After the two parties signed, Neil Blomkamp completed the first draft of the script as quickly as possible, and faxed it to Los Angeles for Ronan to view it in person.
The title of this script is called "District Nine".
The main plot of the script of is roughly the same as Ronan's impression. The image of the aliens that came with the script are set, and the prawns are very unique.
Since Neil Blomkamp will also participate in the special effects production of "Avatar", he is still holding the key position of deputy director of special effects. It is definitely impossible to leave the "Avatar" crew at this stage. The "9th District" project can only be returned In the future plans of Shahai Entertainment.
At the earliest, we have to wait for the special effects of "Avatar" to complete a stage before Neil Blomkamp can work with his successor.
James Cameron is very good to the people on the team did not set any obstacles for Neil Blomkamp, if nothing else, "District Nine" can start preparations as soon as next year .
In contrast, the Indian novel "Questions and Answers", which received the copyright of the adaptation, is much slower.
This will not be a commercial project, it will definitely be one of the awards season works in the future.
In a certain award season, Relativity Entertainment could not launch too many works. Not to mention the scattered resources, the Oscar judges rarely chose the same company's movies one after another when voting.
This year's "Brokeback Mountain" and next year's "Walker" are all key projects of Relativity Entertainment's next two award seasons.
There is also a "gril" directed by David Fincher. Due to the relatively slow progress of the project, it is temporarily impossible to determine which award season will be launched.
In this way, even though it is clear that the director is the one who directed "Guessing the Train", Ronan has not let anyone come into contact with him for the time being.
The "Slumdog Millionaire" adapted from "Questions and Answers" will not be suitable until it is released at least three years later.
Once this film was moved to multiple companies before it was approved.
