Chapter 532 The Actors Are All Sentient Beings

With the release of North America box office data last weekend, the theaters, as a broadcasting platform, have adjusted the volume of films released recently.

or increase or decrease.

The film "Pearl Harbor" is the first to be hit!

You should know that a few days ago, the film "Pearl Harbor" received a total of 4,190 cinemas screenings across the United States.

The large scale of screenings and the number of screens released were the most since the beginning of 2001.

Looking at the historical records that began in the 1990s, the screening scale of 4,190 cinemas can also rank in the top 15.

But what is the result?

The box office performance of "Pearl Harbor" was far lower than expected!

A person in charge of Amc Cinema, one of the three major theaters in the United States, said to the public: "The film "Pearl Harbor" occupies too much screening volume and screening resources, but its performance did not meet expectations. According to the agreement signed by our Amc Cinema, the producer and the publisher, we have of course the right to make flexible adjustments to the screening volume."

Amc is very dissatisfied with "Pearl Harbor", so it will naturally reduce the emissions.

And it has greatly reduced emissions!

Of course, Disney Group is not happy.

Even Robert Eiger took action personally.

"Ditt, our Disney has had many years of partnership with the Amc department, and, in terms of friendship, we have been friends for many years. Do you really want this?"

Robert Eiger frowned and said, "Can we not reduce the schedule of "Pearl Harbor"?"

"Well, I don't want to last for more than 7 days."

"What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Diet immediately looked embarrassed.

Diet Efron, 49, is a senior vice president of Amc Cinemas, and is a complete executive. He is also a high school classmate with Disney Pictures CEO Robert Egg.

"5 days!"

Diet gritted his teeth and said, "Man, I can buy you up to 5 days. You know, I am not the boss of Amc Cinema after all."

Robert Eiger sincerely said: "Thank you! Thank you very much!"

He is not a person who doesn't know what he is.

As Diet said, he is not the boss of Amc Cinema. Of course, even if Diet Efron is the boss of Amc Cinema, he cannot maintain the filming schedule for a long time.

The shareholders of the amc theater chain will never sit idly by and watch their interests suffer!

"Oh~"

Seeing this, Diet couldn't help but sigh: "Old guy, this time the box office of the "Pearl Harbor" movie will be absolutely responsible for the failure. I watched the movie. In a word, I think Michael Bay will not touch on some love and literary themes in the future, and focus on his explosive movies."

"Well, not every director is James Cameron!"

The words fell.

Robert Eiger's mouth twitched.

To be honest, at this point, he regrets working with Michael Bay very much.

"It's not good for you to shoot the explosion honestly, why do you insist on doing the so-called 'high-end' connotations?" Robert Egg was full of resentment.

He remembered today!

Remember firmly!

He will be proud of a decision a few years later.

In 2003, Michael Bay once again found Disney to seek cooperation with the script "Escape from the Clones Island".

Robert Eiger refused directly.

joke?!

The production cost of US$120 million or the so-called "high-end" connotations?

How could Robert Eiger agree?

Then, Warner Bros. Film Company... was cheated.

The movie "Escape from the Cloned Island" was released in 2004, with a box office defeat and a loss to the producer!

The losses are much worse than Pearl Harbor!

......

At the same time.

Somewhere in Los Angeles.

Joaquin Phoenix, a male actor who has always worked well with Wald Pictures, was stunned and dazed when he looked at the newspaper in his hand.

He regretted it!

Extreme regret!

Once upon a time, when the film "Ninth District" was launched publicly and the actor selection audition was held, the first male actor invited was Joaquin Phoenix. After all, he has collaborated with Wald Pictures for many movies, which is the first time he has won the moon.

As long as he wants, he is basically the protagonist of "The Ninth District"!

But!

He refused...

"Joaquin, you are in a very critical upward period. The salary for your male lead will not be less than $10 million at the market price. However, the total production cost of the film "Ninth District" is only $30 million, and they will never accept our offer."

The agent's words are still echoing in my ears.

Joaquin Phoenix also believed at the time: "It is difficult to have a high box office for a low-cost science fiction film of $30 million."

The most important thing is that the director of "The Ninth District" is Christopher Nolan, who has not yet become popular, rather than Zach Schneider.

"hehe!"

Joaquin Phoenix put away the newspaper and said self-deprecatingly: "I underestimated others!"

He regretted it very much.

Undoubtedly, he missed the opportunity to take him further.

Dongdongdongdongdong~

At this moment, Joaquin Phoenix's agent Lyle ran all the way and came here.

He is here to apologize!

"Joeune, I want to apologize to you. Because of my short-sightedness and rigid thinking, you missed "The Ninth District"." Lyle was firm and felt very guilty.

Joaquin waved his hand and smiled, "It's nothing. I used to want to make a movie, but no one wanted me. You have always been with me. Career is very important, but good brothers are equally important."

"You..." Lyle was extremely moved.

......

Bluebird Brokerage Company.

As a subsidiary of Wald Pictures, it is highly anticipated.

The premiere of the film "Shaw Beach" and "The Ninth District", all of them signed by Blue Bird agents participated.

Alan Page sighed: "The movie "The Ninth District" is so amazing!"

Tom Hardy nodded: "It's true. With a production cost of just $30 million, he actually made such an excellent science fiction movie, and the box office was also quite excellent. I have a hunch that Christopher Nolan, the director of the film, will soon become one of the hot directors in Hollywood. No, or he is now a popular star director."

“Haha~”

Robert Pattinson laughed: "The box office of "The Ninth District" is so good. I guess those who have refused to audition invitations and were eliminated should have a burst of mentality, right?"
