Rachel weitze's state is also a kind of "don't treat famous women as people", but it's different from Nicole and Zeta Jones. Adrian still likes her, and their interest conflicts are not as deep as theirs. He has a special relationship with her. Like Britney Spears, Rachel has a unique attribute among Adrian's women.
Adrian loved Rachel like this, as much as she liked the excitement of her desperate struggle. As for Rachel's idea, it doesn't matter, although she may have realized her problem. If her sadism was light at first, it is now completely controlled by Adrian. You know, her sadistic complex is psychological rather than physical.
Well, back to the point, there is no doubt that "Tomb Raider" has achieved considerable success. On the first day of its premiere, it won 15 million box office at 3000 North American cinemas. In the following two days, it not only maintained the momentum, but also increased. Therefore, the final box office of the three days of the weekend was more than 47 million, and it was no exception to sit at the top of the box office list of the weekend. []
"the amazing special effects and interesting plots, and the acting skills of the actors are also very commendable. Stephen Sommers made a wonderful film." "Variety" said so.
Roger Robert also affirmed the film: "it's hard to say that this film is to my liking, but it makes me applaud almost every moment. I don't argue about script, scene scheduling or acting, or mummies, but I'm sure I'm not bored, and sometimes it's funny. It's a good movie
Even though some people think that the mummy in the movie doesn't play its due role of terror, and that the untimely and unimportant jokes dilute the emotions, they also admit that the film is quite good in terms of entertainment.
Sommers is also elated, because of the "extreme cold" and suffered a lot of setbacks, but now is not the time to completely relax, although the film momentum is very good, but after all, he spent nearly 80 million investment, before the cost is earned back, he will not be very stable, so even if there is the idea of making sequels, he can only temporarily suppress 。
However, he can ignore this for the time being. Does it mean that others will also ignore it.
"I know you may be worried, so what I have to do now is to outline the outline of the sequel, and then fill in the content slowly. When I start to prepare, it won't take too much time. I always do that." Adrian laughs and explains to him, "besides, you know, there's foreshadowing in the movie."
Of course, Sommers knows that Adrian reminded him that it's better to prepare for the sequel in the film, such as what imoton called Evelyn, and they had a discussion about it.
"It's very simple. Ordinary people can't be involved in such things. We can work on causality. For example, what's the important person in Rick's Evelyn's previous life - setting Evelyn as the daughter of the Pharaoh? Yes, we're talking about sequels, but why can't we start with the first episode? If there is a sequel, "Adrian said at the time.
In this case, Sommers has nothing to say. Anyway, he just changed a few lines in the movie. So what imoton said after meeting Evelyn for the first time changed a little, and then his attitude towards her changed.
"Princess highness? Please follow me, ansona That's what imorton said.
besides, after eating the first American, Merton's address to Evelyn also added the two words of Princess highness. Of course, in order not to make the title look like a pit, the conversation with the librarian and others in the library was slightly modified.
"he calls me princess highness, and he calls me Anna. What does that mean?" Evelyn asked the curator.
"Annona is his lover, and also the reason why he was punished. As for Princess highness... Ansuna is not a princess The curator replied.
"Maybe he's been buried in the ground for thousands of years, and he's old and stupid?" Jonathan quipped.
Ansuna is the daughter of an aristocrat. It's OK to be called the royal highness of princesses, or do not get entangled in these details. We are facing serious problems. He obviously wants to resurrect her. Said adeth Bay, the man in black.
With these foreshadowing, it's easier to round up the story after the sequel comes out, and those small
UG audience who are very careful to notice this point will suddenly realize. But it's too early to talk about sequels, so Adrian just asked Somos to prepare the outline for the first time, and then talk about it after the first one is fully fermented.
After the premiere, he stayed two days to confirm the weekend box office, and Adrian returned to New Zealand again. Although Rachel's appearance in "Tomb Raider city" is very good, and she is basically in his hands, Adrian did not play the game that he played many times in this period of time, and there is no hurry. Before he left, he did not forget to see his daughter and two pregnant women who were beginning to become emotional.
Although both Monica and Sophie want him to stay with them for a few more days, who Adrian chose the Lord of the rings trilogy? Monica and Sophie both lost their temper. If it was in the past, they would not understand, but now they are pregnant women, or pregnant women with a few months' gestation, so it has to be understood.Adrian, of course, was not the kind of person who didn't understand. He spent a lot of time coaxing them down and promised to return to Los Angeles at the end of the month and spend all his time with them. Anyway, the following period of time is relatively calm, there is nothing urgent to pay attention to, as long as the progress of the Lord of the rings has not fallen.
As a matter of fact, it's impossible for the progress to fall behind. Jackson did a good job. Adrian had completed the task he told him when he left for the premiere of "the trap of stealing the sky". This time, he specially arranged several main scenes for him to try to direct before going back to participate in "Tomb Raider city", and the result was also excellent.
What's more, he didn't cling to the big scenes, the grand narratives, as he did at the beginning. What Adrian instilled in him obviously worked.
"Well done, it seems that even without me, you can make this trilogy on your own." He joked to Jackson, "looks like you can take care of the rest of the shots."
Of course, this is just a talk. Although most of his version is similar to the original version, there are also many adjustments. This kind of adjustment can only be done by a person who knows the advantages and disadvantages of the original version. However, some scenes can be made by Jackson, but it will take more than a month, because the southern hemisphere has entered the winter completely.
"What should I say? Sympathize with your misfortune? " After Adrian complained about the weather, Cameron, holding a beer bottle, asked sarcastically.
"No, no, no, James, if you just let your studio do the best it can with the lowest price, that's the biggest help to me." Adrian shook his head like a rattle.
"It's none of my business. You know, my pursuit of perfection is endless." Cameron laughed.
"The problem is, I'm not you, and I'm not going to invest unlimited money in a movie." Adrian took a sip of beer.
"Ha, so you admit that you are inferior to me in some way at least." "It's like discovering a new continent," Cameron called.
Who knows Adrian spread his hands: "when did I say I surpassed you in all aspects? Yes, I am good at some aspects, but I am not an all rounder. Is it a shame to admit that I am inferior to others? "
"Hell, can't you please me for a few minutes?" Feeling a punch in the air, Cameron sighed, then raised the beer bottle in his hand and touched him, making a jingle.
"You know, to make a good special effect, the necessary expenses are certain, of course, if you have any extraordinary suggestions, you can also tell them." Cameron then said.
"Speaking of it I do have a suggestion. " Adrian suddenly thought of something, "don't you think outsourcing some special effects can make the studio more efficient?"
"Outsourcing? Are you kidding? " Cameron raised his eyebrows. "Or do you want to tell me that you don't think my studio is good enough, so you plan to outsource it to industrial light and magic?"
"Of course not," Adrian chuckled. "I know what you mean, James. I just want to say that we can outsource those less technical ones, such as those hand drawn long-range CG maps - what do you think of outsourcing to China?"
"China? What centralized country? What CG graphs can they draw? If you want to talk about Hong Kong, it is still possible. " Cameron frowned.
"Four or five years ago, my company began to deal with Chinese people. Maybe I don't know much about that ancient country, but it's absolutely not very clear to many people. They may not be very good now, but it will be difficult to say in the future." Adrian said leisurely, and then swallowed the sentence "in a few years, you'll have to go to them to promote new films.".
As a reborn, he did not know how big the Chinese market was, so when Hollywood film companies began to plan to go to China, he convinced Claude to participate in it on the basis of "market". At the beginning, because the influence was not enough, it basically cooperated with paramount to "open up wasteland". After a few years, the company gradually expanded, and globegroup, one of the seven major film companies, gradually began to deal with Chinese officials independently.
This does not affect anything. As long as we find the right people and channels, it is very simple to cooperate. Adrian undoubtedly knows more about the twists and turns than other film companies. In addition, he also registered many things with the China Intellectual Property Office - such as the penguin.
Although the Chinese patent office was set up in 80 years, few people cared. It was not until the Japanese stole countless technologies and registered them around the world, which in turn required them to pay the patent fee. Interestingly, Westerners who are now developing markets in China do not have this awareness. They may register trademarks and patents in Taiwan, Hong Kong and other places, but selectively forget the mainland.
The most famous example is apple. However, western enterprises have advantages, means and backstage. Unlike China in the 1980s, there was no way for them to know that they were trapped by Japan. Rao is so. Many western enterprises have suffered a lot in this respect, so Adrian will not let this happen to him. He is a capitalist now.However, although he got the trademark of the iPad all over the world, I have to say that Steve Jobs is a crazy and fierce guy. Now Apple has completely walked out of the predicament and has begun to have a surplus. Although the expansion of it stock is included, it has something to do with his personal ability. Maybe the plan of the iPad is in his mind now, so he got it in advance It's necessary to win over the relationship.
As for others, he doesn't care so much. He is not so great as to remind others. As for China, in any case, most of his achievements come from his previous life. Some things have to be faced with, but don't worry. He has a plan. He always has a lot of plans.
Well, far from it, Adrian doesn't continue to talk about outsourcing. Although he does think about it, it depends on the specific situation.
"Are you still taking a leisurely vacation? No other ideas? " Adrian asked.
"Who told you that? I'm still on vacation, but I'm still working on filming. I'm making a documentary about the ocean Mr. Cameron said in a positive voice.
"I heard fox had an idea for Terminator 3. Don't you want to be a director?" Adrian asked on purpose.
"Come on, I told you that the series was over after Terminator 2, and the director's editing has shown my attitude." Cameron said with some dissatisfaction that he obviously didn't like fox's plan for the third film. At the beginning, in order to give the sequel ambush pen, they changed his favorite ending and had to put it in the director's editing version.
"But the producers and writers still have you." Adrian laughs.
"Yes, yes, I know." Cameron sighed. "Tell me about you, ed. you promised me that there would be a film that would be suitable for my direction. When are you going to cash it? You know, I always thought you were talking about Spiderman. I didn't expect That's sad
Listening to his sigh, Adrian couldn't help laughing and shaking his head. Who knows that "king of the world" was a fan of "Spider Man" before he became obsessed with "2001 Space Odyssey". In fact, when he finished Terminator 2 in the early 1990s, he had the idea of putting spider man on the big screen. He also found a film company to support it. They also got the film rights from surprise.
Unfortunately or fortunately, Sony had sold the animation and television rights of Spiderman from surprise, so Sony also had some movie rights. As a result, the two companies couldn't negotiate with each other - Sony asked for 2 billion yuan - so they couldn't solve the problem. The company only bought the five-year term, and Cameron started busy with titanic again It didn't end.
The copyright of Marvel's cartoon characters has always been chaotic. It has happened that a character has been sold to several companies. When AC media acquired marvel, Wall Street analysts warned that if the copyright problem could not be solved, it would be very difficult for these comic characters to be capitalized, thus causing negative effects.
So after the acquisition, AC media began to integrate marvel and take back the rights of comic characters. Sony could talk to that company, but not to AC media. It's a little bit of cooperation between each other, and it's also a little surprising that AC media has a lot of advantages in litigation.
In addition, Sony's part of the film copyright is permanent. Is there any permanent copyright in the world? What's more, AC media is an American enterprise. Once it goes to court, it won't win much, so it's better to push the boat along the river and do a favor.
Adrian used a few bad comic characters and scripts to get back all the movie rights of Spiderman. Fortunately, no one realized the value of surprise at this time. Otherwise, it would not have been so smooth.
"That won't work, dear James. I've seen your script for Spiderman. To be honest, it's good, but it's dark and too adult." Adrian said so.
"What's wrong with superhero movies that are more adult and darker?" Cameron said discontentedly.
"Of course not. The biggest attraction of Marvel's superheroes is that they are all flawed people." At least, we should make a surprise cartoon to make sure that all the comic strips are amazing
Cameron's script doesn't have so much talk color. Peter Parker is a bad guy with a lot of dirty words and is on the Brooklyn Bridge with Mary, which, at least, needs to be restrained before opening up for surprise.
"Come on, at least this version of the script also retains the setting you designed to shoot spider silk from your wrist. If you want, I can ask them to write your name on the script." Adrian patted Cameron on the shoulder.
Yes, in the cartoon, Peter Parker uses his own equipment to spray spider silk, but Cameron's original script was designed to spray directly and fully from his wrist, and this version, which is scheduled to be released at the end of the year, retains his design."No, I'm not mean." Cameron said with a smile. (note)
"well, I have to go now. I have to ask you to go to the ski resort in Queenstown tomorrow." Adrian looked at the time and drank the beer in his hand.
"Wait, ed Cameron suddenly stopped him with a strange look on his face.
"What's the matter?" Adrian looks at him.
"We're old friends, aren't we?"
"Of course."
