Chapter 641: I love this 1 line

"The latest news from the TV station. The political thriller Argo, written and played by Ryan Jenkins and directed by George Clooney, has exposed a new poster today, featuring a close-up of Ryan's frowning face. The poster also says- —The movie is fake, and the action is real — after the trial meeting was held not long ago, the film was well received by the participants, and it was even considered by many media to be a hot spot to compete for Oscars."

After entering mid-September, the publicity of "Argo" has reached the final stage. Although due to the limited publicity budget, the major media under Disney and the online media that Ryan shares can still see this film everywhere. News and advertising.

"Adapted from real historical events, "Argo"-a lie and an incredible plan!"

"A great rescue, an incredible journey, "Argo" will be released on October 15th!"

Signage posters, entertainment lace, online advertisements, viral videos, like past movies, Ryan has never been ambiguous in film promotion. The last period of time before the release of "Argo" is definitely the most critical stage of promotion.

Although he rarely goes to battle now, George Clooney took Robert Downey Jr., Alan Arkin, John Goodman and others to and fro between various announcements, even the archetype Antonio Mend. I went into battle personally.

Ryan fulfilled his promise to him. Just before the movie was about to be released, his memoir of the same name "Argo" was officially published, and entered the physical and e-book markets at the same time, although the sales volume was super hot this year. "The Hunger Games" and "The Da Vinci Code" are incomparable, but they have also triggered a wave of panic buying. After all, it records many confidential events that the CIA has not known to the public even after decryption.

The small craze triggered by the memoirs has also increased the public's expectations for the film.

The entire publicity plan of the film is in charge of a professional team. Still proceed in an orderly manner.

""Argo" again exposed character posters, and the three giants crossed the ocean to save the hostages."

"Los Angeles Times reported that Ryan's new film "Argo" revealed three character posters today."

"The three posters not only exposed the shapes of the three protagonists Ryan Jenkins, John Goodman, and Alan Arkin, but the three posters are more logically related."

"From the "Our purpose is just to make a movie" on the first poster, to "The movie is just a cover" on the second poster, to the "Hollywood film provides a storyline" on the third poster, which contains a The big plan'. The three giants’ deliberate and meticulous rescue plans are unveiled, and a high-intellectual businessman’s quality rescue operation is ready to take place."

The investment in this movie itself is limited, and it is impossible to achieve the overwhelming propaganda bombing like the "Spider-Man" and "Harry Potter" series. All the plans are extremely targeted. Especially the trailer was not released until the end of September.

"The trailer for "Argo" is first exposed, and Ryan's new work focuses on CIA secret incidents!"

"Yahoo Entertainment News, Ryan's self-written and self-acted political thriller "Argo" today exposed the first trailer. The political thriller mode need not be mentioned, regardless of the retro character styling, the graininess of the screen and the famous rock band" The music for the occasion brought us into the background of the story of the 1970s..."

After the trailer is released, whether it is on the ‘’ where the trailer is released. On the message board of Ryan's official website, many people have expressed their expectations for the film.

"A must-see!"

"Extremely looking forward to it!"

"It feels like a very good movie."

"The movies written and acted by Ryan have always been synonymous with quality!"

Taking advantage of the attention caused by the trailer, Disney added a fire to it, not only announcing that Antonio Mendez and a number of retired CIA officials will attend the premiere. Invitations were also sent to Ken Taylor and his wife and the then U.S. President Jimmy Carter.

The former is the Canadian ambassador who took in six US embassy personnel, while the latter’s failure to re-elect was inseparable from the Iranian hostage incident.

Of course, the Ken Taylors readily accepted the invitation, and Jimmy Carter did not respond.

"Countless movies are inspired by real events. This movie is actually what happened."

Ryan also accepted an interview with his own media and talked about the film in front of the camera lens of the TV station, "If the story of "Argo" seems to be out of reality, the audience will not buy it. But the illusion of age is built for the audience , And for me, everything about "Argo" is only about how to tell a story..."

He then praised the important role Canada played in the rescue incident in the interview. Anyway, such an unthinkable incident can only happen between the United States and Canada, even though the United States is portrayed in the movie. Heroes, Canadians actually played more roles in the incident. Saying a few words of praise for them is not a big deal, and it can also reduce some of the subsequent troubles.

Subsequently, in accordance with the prior arrangement, the reporter raised some minor questions about the rescue incident, and Ryan responded accordingly.

"The first Star Wars movie was born in 1977. It was a sensation. Movies, books, toys, and costumes were like a storm sweeping the entire United States. Internationally, it was also a big event. These mysterious science fiction movies were at the time. Everyone is making a movie with great interest, and for everyone in the world, this is like another revolution."

"Those enthusiastic and determined Islamic revolutionary guards will also think about science fiction stories and let go of their guards. This is why I really fall in love with this story. Hollywood has always played an important role in our country and life. Role, isn't it?"

Finally, the reporter asked why he still has such a passion for filming when he has such a rich net worth.

"Interests and hobbies, I like the feeling of playing in different roles." The rumors that he will quit the cast of actors have not been broken over the years, and Ryan also responded with this.

"Of course there must be stories that I like. Sometimes I feel that I am too young to have enough experience. I have made some movies, and it may be okay, but after all, I still have a lot of things that I don’t understand, nor Enough things to prove something, but I will wake up early in the morning and work intensely all day. I don't know if I really have more talent than others, but I know I can work hard and work harder.

"I have loved this line since I was sensible," he said.

After the interview about Ryan was broadcast, it greatly increased the public's expectations for this film. After all, he has brought too many wonderful works in the past.

This kind of story exudes strong positive energy and trust in the country, and sings a clear CIA hymn, showing how the CIA agents cleverly set up scams, fight wits, and rescue hostages from crisis. Anyone who participated in the trial screening The mainstream media of the conference all sang praises to the movie.

Contrary to the treatment of mainstream media and even emerging online media, Disney did not invite any professional film critics at all when it held the trial film, completely ignoring the industry.

Although the veteran film critics who are accustomed to the past are very angry about this, they have to admit that after the confrontation between David Denby and Ryan, the influence of their group on the film industry is like sitting on it. Like a roller coaster, it went straight down.

It is not only the younger and younger mainstream audience that ignores them, but also the major studios in Hollywood. The invisible benefits that they could enjoy in the past are hidden behind the curtain. Now they have almost completely disappeared, even many media. They are all judging that it won’t take long for the profession of professional film critics to gradually collapse.

Even if they are unwilling, they are powerless to change all of this.

In the eyes of these people, Ryan, who holds massive media resources in their hands, is a direct inducement. What they most want to do is to take advantage of the failure of a certain movie of the other party to treat him while there is still such a little influence. Launched the most violent attack.

So, they are waiting, waiting for this opportunity to appear.

However, before the film critics waited for the release of Ryan's film, they first ushered in a movie that surprised everyone in Hollywood, a super epic war masterpiece that was even more miserable than "King Arthur" in word-of-mouth and box office.

Entering the first day of October, "Alexander the Great", which Warner Bros. spent US$155 million to produce and discarded US$60 million in promotional expenses, officially landed on the North American theaters just now for the "Wonder Woman" "The senior Warners who had held a celebration party almost vomited blood this time. They fully realized the miserable feelings of Sony Columbia Pictures on "King Arthur".

On the first three days of the week, "Alexander the Great" won only $16.78 million at the box office in 3445 North American theaters!

This is not a literary and cult niche film, but a super large production with a total investment of more than 200 million US dollars. Such an investment and the first week's box office ratio almost indicate that this movie will definitely lose its money.

The fact is exactly the same. In the second week, while keeping the number of theaters unchanged, the North American box office of "Alexander the Great" dropped directly to 6.18 million US dollars. "Argo" was released, so that the number of theaters in the third week of "Alexander the Great" quickly dropped to more than 2,100.

As for the box office, as of October 15th, before the release of "Argo", "Alexander the Great" spent half a month in the North American market with a pitiful more than 31.1 million US dollars.

Epic war films will inevitably fall into a trough. (To be continued...) ()
