Chapter 815? Crew Life
Linton's move...isn't too unexpected. Anyway, judging from the box office on the first day, the cat and mouse game project will definitely not fail. The emperor of Disney, who has a strong desire, has always been very cruel to thorny executives, directors, and actors.
And I am different, the 21-year-old black singer made a special cut of Ridley Scott's movie? It's wrong to cut it nicely, the original sin.
According to Bowei Films’ forecast, the box office of Cat and Mouse Game in the first week of Beimi will probably fall in the range of 15 to 18 million, ranking third in the Thanksgiving schedule, second only to Toy Story and 007 GoldenEye, amazing Cracking down on the three-week-long release of the Detective Ace sequel.
According to Yeremov’s calculation based on the box office ratio on the first day, the game of cat and mouse can actually get a better result, 20 million, but it is a pity that even Disney’s theater resources cannot support the two blockbusters that will be drawn on the same day. Well, its distributor Buwei Pictures is more like Toy Story, which is a family carnival movie, an animation, or a toy peripheral or even a Disneyland take-away movie. The commercial potential is not comparable to a biographical drama like a game of cat and mouse.
Therefore, Warner's Detective Airplane sequel has the most films scheduled in the same period, with 2,700 theaters and Overlapping Murder with 1,000.
The new theaters in the game of cat and mouse are basically snatched by Bowei from the other six major film companies. The line was reduced to 2,000 by the lineup, and the estimated box office was almost cut from 18 million, leaving only 10 million.
The second sufferer is MGM's Shorty, because that black comedy had the most serious collision with the theme of cat and mouse game in the same period.
The Casino of the Italian gang has not been affected much, because there is only one gangster film with the taste of Martin Scorsese. The audience who want to watch it will naturally buy tickets to watch it, and those who are not interested will not be able to compete. Director Martin Scorsese and leading actor Robert De Niro's age and status are also inconvenient for unconventional announcements. Their entire crew jointly expressed their support for Ridley Scott, implying that the cat and mouse game was ruined by Linton's scissors. This is a routine operation and it is not too much.
Their problem is that Americans really don't like to watch this kind of theme anymore. 1,600 theaters lined up the film, and the box office in the first week was about 12 million. This result cannot satisfy the distributor Universal anyway.
Other than that, only the heroine Sharon Stone tore Amy and Xue Linfen out of the air, which was secretly remembered by Song Ya, but she didn't have the energy to retaliate for the time being, because the money train crew and Columbia Pictures were in a hurry. Crazy, the production cost of 70 million yuan is not included in the publicity and copying costs, and the box office in the first week is only 10 million yuan. If they don't do something, they will lose a lot of money. They started to make trouble.
"Aren't you going to promote it with the crew next week? Don't you go to Europe? Let's relax."
Song Ya asked Xue Linfen on the phone.
The revenge of the money train crew was very violent. In addition to repeatedly mentioning Song Ya as an investor to combat the desire of white movie fans to buy tickets to watch, they also focused on actresses such as Ashley Judd, Amy Adams and Xue Linfen On the body, there is no way, Leto became famous not long ago, and the media didn't have much black material in their hands. The male second male third and even the male fourth are all middle-aged actors with a good reputation. Ridley Scott's stuff is always not good. It will have the opposite effect and arouse the curiosity of the audience, so I can only go to the actress for the third time.
They asked the media to dig up the black material of all the actresses in the game of cat and mouse, Amy Adams and Xuelin Fenn and their past, Ashley Judd and the actress who overthrew Charis and Harvey Weinstein. relationship, they also noted that Amy Acker, who only had one line in the film, said she made a deal with the cat and mouse crew to help slander Jennifer Lopez in exchange for roles, and so on.
Pushing people into the water is also self-help. The game of cat and mouse robbed their film. In addition to trying to get back the film, they also attacked police and gangster films with the theme of superimposed murders and other car crashes.
For example, Harvey Weinstein's 72-hour life-and-death line to be released next week is also unlucky. That movie obviously has little to do with the theme of police and robbers, but who told you that Harvey chose such a title and invested in cats and mice What about games?
"No, let's stay at home with little Robb, and continue to study the script by the way, oh yes, several film studios invited me to audition today, and I'm asking Tim to help choose."
Xue Linfen was a little embarrassed by the overwhelming attacks. Her short-term relationship with another black superstar, Prince Prince, was revealed in the early years. The tabloids said that she gave up on herself after being dumped by Johnny Depp. More and more heavy', love stamp collection, live in a multi-million mansion by giving birth to a singer and rich man, and get long-term meal tickets and so on.
It's good if she is willing to accompany her son, "Okay, be careful before taking the film, and let Tim discuss it with me before signing the contract." Song Ya felt that her mentality was fairly peaceful, and she was relieved.
Taraji watched him put down the microphone, and reported: "Wesley Streep begged Percy Sutton through his old Broadway connections, and wanted the inner city broadcasting company to stop hyping his domestic violence incident. Sutton and his son did not agree, after all, you will officially serve as the chairman of the inner city broadcasting company early next month, and this time Wesley and the Italians crossed the line first."
"Um."
It’s still the same problem. The black media elites don’t want to see their own people fighting each other. It’s the same for me and MJ, and it’s the same for Wesley and myself. Although Wesley’s previous image was very positive. Entering Hollywood, the acting experience is very solid, but he joined forces with outsiders to start first, the Sutton father and son will definitely not give him a good face, "He is like a chicken with no head now, and he also asked Spike Lee, that idiot Spike Lee just beat him The call came to signal me to stop."
"Spike Lee trying to save face? Charis is filming with his call girl number six crew, and Harley's going to have a cameo too."
Taraji said: "Besides, Bowei Pictures doesn't pay attention to the money train now. Mr. Linton also said that it is almost enough. Not giving the other party any pictures is the best way to retaliate."
"No, never, that's not going to black him out in Hollywood."
This time, Wesley was grabbed and beaten. Among the people involved in the incident at David Geffen's house, he is the only one who can take advantage of it. Violent scandals can't achieve their goals, and the black community has a high tolerance for beating women. At least we have to wait until the money train is released, I want to see how much the movie will pay in the end!" Song Ya gritted her teeth.
"Will Charis be..."
"It's okay, Spike Lee can't save face if he helps to intercede, he won't vent his anger on a young actor."
In New York, Spike Lee is sitting in front of a monitor in a daze.
"Director, Madonna's people said that she will be there in half an hour..." the assistant came over to report.
"Oh." He looked at his watch numbly, and continued to be in a daze.
"Three hours ago, I said that there is still half an hour..." The young assistant director next to me complained, "If we had known this, we would have filmed other actors' scenes first, and the whole crew had to wait all afternoon, and the shooting plan had to be postponed by another day .”
"Stop complaining, that's what the pop queen is like." Spike Lee stopped him, "Get someone to measure the water temperature in the bathtub again."
Although she has won the Golden Raspberry Award many times, Madonna has so many requirements when she participates in the film that she even has regulations on the temperature of the bath water, which is one of the most troublesome things for the film crew. I just caught a suspenseful movie, and it’s useless to be nominated for the Venice Golden Lion Award. Now I can’t get a big investment, so I can only rely on all the connections I’ve accumulated before and the temptation of the award-winning movie to gather a superstar voluntarily for free. The movie, in order to turn over.
"Are you still going to the theater announcement event of the money train tonight? It's a little too late." The assistant asked.
"No, apologize to Wesley for me."
Spike Lee doesn't want to be in the same frame as Wesley right now, that ruthless guy from APLUS is digging out his black material, don't make a violent explosion at that time, and get yourself dragged down.
"Anyway, after filming Madonna's scene today, other plans will definitely not be completed. Why don't we give the other actors a vacation?" the assistant director asked.
"Okay." Spike Lee was dumbfounded again.
"Today's filming plan is cancelled, and I will report on time tomorrow." The assistant director went to the actor's rest area behind and yelled a few times.
"Why? I'm flying to LA tomorrow for an audition! That's very important to me!"
Charis, who was dozing off on the fat servant's shoulder, immediately became impatient. Tomorrow would be the last round of auditions for Unstoppable Miracle, and she planned to fly straight there after filming in the afternoon.
"You're still busy."
The assistant director sneered, this beautiful white girl with Monroe-like temperament didn't give him a chance to sneak in at all, and the director refused to reveal the background, so it should be stuffed in through the APLUS relationship. There are scenes in the cat and mouse game movie, and the hot dance scene with APLUS is very sultry and brilliant. In the cat and mouse game, the drunk woman who only has one line can enjoy the frontal close-up shot, which shows a lot of things.
"Please." Charis stood up and approached the assistant director, stroking the other's shoulder flatteringly.
You will play this trick, if you don’t dive, everything is equal to zero, you know? The assistant director slandered in his heart, but he didn't dare to offend the person behind the girl, "I'm sure we won't be able to shoot today. At most, we can change your role to tomorrow morning, the earliest scene."
"That's not enough time..."
Charis continued to be pitiful. The agent said that Unstoppable Miracle's final round of auditions would take a whole day. She had already booked her ticket and had to leave tonight.
"You...huh." The assistant director couldn't get used to it, "Since you don't have time, I'll replace your part with Gretchen tomorrow, how about it?"
Charis' complexion changed. Gretchen Moore was her biggest rival in the crew. She was the same tall, blond, had the same background as a model, and also had a gorgeous face. I heard that the role of girl No. 12 that she played was supposed to be Gretchen Yes, the director transferred the favor of APLUS to himself. So from the moment I joined the group, that girl always sneered at her face and played tricks behind her back. The two had had conflicts several times before, and the most serious one was almost a fight in front of the dressing table...
Until now, she has not figured out exactly what story the director wants to tell. Gretchen has been squeezed into the role of No. 42 girl who has far fewer roles than herself. The homogeneity of the roles is very serious, and it is definitely not difficult to change people temporarily.
I am not one of those big names who come to guest...
She was so anxious that she burst into tears on the spot. Hollywood superstar Tom Hanks is very concerned about his directorial debut, and the audition requirements are high and trivial. But the second female lead in Tom Hanks' debut novel!
In addition, Mr. Yeremov had already announced that he would practice fighting scenes for the female vampire role in the Blade Warrior project, so she also signed up for a karate class...
From obscurity to sudden opportunities everywhere, she has to survive the most critical period of her career no matter what, so she has been constantly busy on the east and west coasts, and the biggest feature of this broken crew is that there are many women, playing scantily clad characters. The call girls accounted for the majority, and when she was free, there were endless cynicism and infighting, and she was the main target of attack with more scenes. Even though she didn't suffer any loss by taking care of the director with her heart, she was exhausted physically and mentally.
All kinds of unexpected accidents came together, the mental pressure was increasing, and her physiology had been disordered for a long time. She felt that her whole body was on the verge of collapse, "Woooo..."
"It's starting again..."
As soon as she cried, the other girls in the lounge began to say strange things. Fortunately, Gretchen was not there, otherwise there would probably be another quarrel.
The assistant director would not soften his heart for such a small trick, otherwise so many girls in the crew would have been turned upside down, so he turned around and left.
"Call Linda." The fat follower quietly handed over the phone.
"I don't want to beg him again for this!" Charis thought of the drunken night with the other two girls more than a month ago... "Ouch!" She recalled the absurd scene at that time, and immediately began to vomit , covered his mouth and ran to the bathroom.
"There are so many dramas." The other girls laughed from behind.
"That……"
The fat follower followed up loyally, "Calling your manager?"
"Okay, no, not this, call my co-agent, Ms. Pai Kingsley."
The main agent always thought that he was following the path of Mr. Yeremov, and he didn't know about himself and APLUS at all. If he didn't ask APLUS for help, his small Hollywood agent might not be able to deal with Spike Lee, but Pakin Seeley knew it, and she deserved it as one of CAA's top agents.
"It's hard to get in touch with that old woman." The fat follower pouted.
"Let's fight. I'm only one step away from getting the second female lead in the Tom Hanks project. Shouldn't she help? After all, she can also get a commission from me." Charis said.
The call was successfully answered by Pai Kingsley. About half an hour later, the assistant director softened his attitude and said that he could change the role of the scene and free up a day for her tomorrow.
"Isn't that done?"
She was in a much better mood instantly, sneered at the girls who were destined not to be popular, and left the set with her head held high.
