Chapter 284: to change

The third week of "Chainsaw" swept North America with a screening scale of 2,674 theaters.

Not only that, with the fermentation of word-of-mouth, the influence of the film is increasing day by day, and it has begun to log in Europe one after another.

Although the movie is extremely terrifying, many countries will prohibit its release in theaters, and can only use video tapes and DVDs, but as a low-cost B-level film, it can be shown worldwide, which is enough to show its success.

This week, in the face of competition from many commercial blockbusters such as "The Grinch" and "Charlie's Angels 1", "The Chainsaw" did not show weakness, with a single-week box office of 24.42 million US dollars!

Especially in the three weekends, the box office grossed $13.2 million, second only to "The Grinch" with $17.62 million, "Little Ghosts in Paris" with $22.72 million, and "Charlie's Angels 1" with $13.36 million. Production, ranked fourth!

It even surpassed Sony's new film "Sixth Day". As for Miramax's "Fate of You", even if the publicity is fierce, it is not an opponent at all.

So far, the North American box office of "Chainsaw" has exceeded 30 million US dollars! Compared with "Soul Shifting Girl", which was released for more than three months, it was only $3 million less at the box office.

Next weekend, "Chainsaw" will usher in a bigger challenge, Disney's suspenseful production "Undead" will be released soon!

...

The original "Chainsaw," which ran for two months, grossed $56 million in North America, but it was in 2004.

The current "Chainsaw" is planned by Dunn's screenwriter, and the director has been replaced by Zach Snyder, who has a more impactful picture style. It is conceivable that different times and different characters have received different effects. .

According to the forecast of the evaluation agency, the North American box office of the film is likely to exceed 80 million US dollars!

Although it can't be compared with last year's "Blair Witch", anyone who understands knows that "Blair Witch" relies on false propaganda and horror marketing. To put it bluntly, it deceives consumers and has no durability at all.

For example, this year's "Blair Witch 2" directly hit the street.

And "Chainsaw" is different, this is a complete story, with a lot of room for sequels, far more eye-catching than the prospects of "Blair Witch".

Because Tang En went to New York to watch a Victoria's Secret show, the shooting was delayed for two days, so this weekend, he honestly worked overtime in the crew to film.

In the bar, Nicole Kidman was holding a glass of wine and looked at the slightly sluggish young man in front of him with a smile, "You don't like talking much, do you?"

Russell Crowe said nervously: "I can't tell you anything about work, Alicia."

Nicole Kidman shook her head. "I don't mean work."

Russell Crowe frowned and sighed: "I find it takes a lot of effort to perfect my social skills. I sometimes spit it out in a more direct way, but it usually doesn't work out well."

Nicole Kidman smiled and winked playfully, "Try it with me."

"Okay." Russell Crowe took a deep breath, "I think you're quite charming, you want to conquer me, and I feel the same way... But the traditions of the past require us to complete some trivial norms... Well, I'll follow these rules of conduct before we make out. But the truth is, all I want to do is have **** with you ASAP!"

Nicole Kidman's eyes widened in surprise.

"Okay, this one is over! The scenes in the bar are over, let's change to another venue!"

Tang En waved his hand, stood up, and stretched.

The shooting of "Beautiful Mind" has come to an end. If there are no accidents, it can be successfully completed in two weeks.

The crew began to pack up and prepare to leave.

Russell Crowe came to Dunn and asked in a low voice, "Director, can you take my part first?"

"Huh? Is there something wrong?"

"Well, my new film, "Proof of Life", will be released on December 8, and the publisher asked me to join the publicity team."

Tang En frowned, a little unhappy, but suddenly thought of something, "Proof of Life? Warner's movie?"

"Yes, Warner is in charge of publishing."

"You know, I have some cooperation with Warner, so I also know some inside information about this movie." Dunn's expression was very cautious, warning vigilantly, "Russell, this movie... I advise you to be cautious and keep a low profile. ."

Russell Crowe said: "I have a clear agreement with the distributor that I must perform the pre-promotion work of the film."

"No no no, Russell, you misunderstood. In fact, A Beautiful Mind will be finished in two weeks, and if you do your part first, you can finish the work in a week. I mean... "Life's" Evidence, the subject matter is too sensitive." Tang En said earnestly.

This is by no means alarmist.

In the past life, it was because Russell Crowe starred in the film "Proof of Life", which directly angered the South American crime syndicate, offering a reward of 13 million US dollars and clamoring to kidnap him.

And there is no ransom, cut a finger every day, and after ten days, directly tear up the ticket!

Such a terrorist threat directly shocked Hollywood, and even the FBI came forward in person and sent agents to protect Russell Crowe for 3 months.

So much so that when Russell Crowe received the Oscar for Best Actor, he was quite tired, trembling and sullen.

Dunn didn't want to cause the butterfly effect and let Russell Crowe die because of his appearance.

...

On Wednesday, November 22, two more blockbusters hit the market, Disney's The Undead and Twentieth Century Fox's X-Men.

In the past two working days, "Chainsaw" has only made $2.9 million at the box office. In this situation, unless a miracle occurs, it is impossible to suppress the box office of "Undead".

But……

Miracle, will it happen?

Now "Undead", starring Bruce Willis has once again exposed the scandal, and at the same time, another superhero movie "X-Men" has been introduced to the market.

The global box office of "Spider-Man" has exceeded 1.25 billion US dollars, how much will "X-Men" be? Even if it is only 250 million US dollars, it is enough to shake this Christmas file!

On the day of its premiere, "Undead Robbery" had a box office of 2.49 million, not to mention compared with "X-Men", which had a box office of 8.63 million US dollars, and old films such as "The Grinch" and "Charlie's Angels 1".

...

Joe Ruth stood tremblingly in front of Michael Eisner, showing a smile that was uglier than crying, "The box office of "Undead" is indeed not as good as that of "X-Men", but we surpassed "Chainsaw"~ www.novelhall.com~Isn't it? As for "X-Men", there is really no way, with the momentum of "Spider-Man", the market for this type of comically modified superhero movie is hot."

Michael Eisner pointed at Joe Ruth, looked at his shameless sophistry, and was speechless with anger.

The box office of "Chainsaw" was $1.46 million that day, which is indeed not as good as "Undead", but is the box office data of the two films comparable?

Disney's hard-earned commercial blockbuster, on the first day of its premiere, only earned $1 million more at the box office than Dunn's three-week B-level film "The Chainsaw", which made him complacent. Can't afford to lose this man!

You must know that "Chainsaw" is only a work of a subsidiary of Tang En Pictures' subsidiary, Focus Pictures. For Tang En Pictures, it is not in the mainstream at all!

And it is such a casual and shoddy production that can be compared with Disney's commercial blockbusters, which makes Disney, who has been in Hollywood for decades, face to face?

Disney's main movie is actually on the same level as the movie of Dunn Pictures' Sun Company?

Simply shameful!

In this case, it's a shame that you still have the face to talk nonsense!

"Fuck off, get off me!"

Michael Eisner was furious, his anger was like thunder, and a great deterrent erupted.

He thought of the ban on Dunn Pictures, and the pain he had suffered from Dunn in the past few months. The reason was all because of the person in front of him—Joe Ruth!

"Get out of here and never come back!"

The voice of Michael Eisner, growling in the office.

Joe Ruth already understood what he meant, his dull face was all dull.

It should come, it will come.

Disney's production department is about to change!
