Chapter 559 A Beautiful Accident

The series that Gilbert Jr. is going to produce is strictly speaking an adaptation of an animated series, "Cyberpunk: Edgewalker."

That's right, Gilbert Jr. plans to make the story of David and Rebecca into a live-action series and begin to gradually tell the story of cyberpunk.

Marvel has just created the MCU universe, and they also want to create a cyberpunk universe.

As for the question of whether he will fail, to be honest, Gilbert Jr. is not worried.

Because this is a TV series, even if it fails, it will not affect Gilbert Jr.'s status in the film industry. But if it succeeds, Gilbert Jr. will feel very handsome.

Moreover, with his current status, even if a movie costing hundreds of millions of dollars flopped, it wouldn’t have much of an impact.

So Gilbert Jr. made "The Last of Us" with full confidence because he already had the qualifications and status to be willful.

Of course, this is not a reason for him not to make movies carefully. Gilbert Jr. is still very careful in making movies.

Being willful does not mean that you can be casual in filmmaking, but it means that you can be bolder in the choice of subject matter and be able to shoot things that other directors want to shoot but cannot.

This is almost the privilege of big directors. Even if they become top Hollywood directors, the film companies and producers still have the final say on the subject matter.

Let’s take a look at “King Kong,” directed by Peter Jackson and starring Naomi Watts.

This film was released almost at the end of the summer season, avoiding the fierce competition of the summer season. The film earned 5506 million US dollars in the first week, which is a very good result.

As of the last weekend of October, "King Kong" had grossed $1 million in North America and $6755 million worldwide.

The film cost $1.2 million to produce, not as high as the rumored $ million.

Without the blessing of the "Lord of the Rings" series, Peter Jackson's salary was not high. Except for Naomi Watts who took $15 million, the rest of the cast and crew received no more than $8 million.

Naomi Watts's salary was mostly a share of the box office revenue, so she made certain concessions on her salary.

This story can be said to be the story of beauty and the beast, and it is a typical Hollywood commercial blockbuster. The word of mouth maintains a qualified state, which can't be said to be too good, but it's not bad either.

The scene where King Kong shoots down a plane on top of the Empire State Building is quite impressive.

The film's small hit also allowed Naomi Watts to return to the ranks of top actresses after giving birth.

"King Kong" is a rare commercial blockbuster in which a female actress plays the main role. Although she still plays the role of a vase, the audience wants to see the gorilla more.

In fact, sometimes I think the audience is also very perverted. This is a rule that the market has summarized over the years. Horror movies with monsters and sharks must have a sexy female lead.

Gilbert Jr.'s first film, The Shallows, stars Gwyneth Paltrow as the heroine, and it was almost entirely a one-woman show.

Although Gwyneth Paltrow has nothing to do with sexiness, the film was still a huge success thanks to the scene where a shark chases a weak girl.

There is another point, that is, in movies where beasts are paired with humans, there must be beauties, and "King Kong" is a typical example.

Think about it, if it's a male actor and a female King Kong, wouldn't this scene be very scary? The female King Kong masturbates the male protagonist on the Empire State Building, just thinking about it makes my anus tighten.

For Peter Jackson, King Kong is a small success, and the global box office will definitely exceed $500 million. This also won him the trust of Disney and Warner, and eventually the project of The Hobbit would be handed over to him.

With Gilbert Jr. ensuring the quality, I believe the film will not disappoint.

Another movie worth watching is Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, directed by Tim Burton and starring Johnny Depp. The movie has grossed $5 million, which is a pretty good result. Johnny Depp is currently filming Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, which is about to be completed.

Judging from the feedback on site, it feels pretty good.

Although Gilbert Jr. served as the producer of "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest", he did not pay much attention to the project.

With a mature and reliable producer, and detailed instructions on the content of previous film shoots, the problem is not too big.

Stephen Sommers has some ability, but sometimes he tends to overdo it. But with the producer watching him, he can't do it even if he wants to.

Ahead of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" is the comedy "Wedding Crashers," released by New Line Cinema.

This movie is not that good, mainly because the lead actress, Rachel McAdams, was involved in a sex scandal beforehand.

A gossip website released a photo that appeared to be Rachel McAdams naked at the beach. Of course, that's not the point.

Which Hollywood actress doesn't have similar photos? It's normal.

What was abnormal was that there were also several naked men surrounding Rachel McAdams, and it was obvious that they were engaging in a group sex.

Although the public has long heard about the decadent lifestyles of Hollywood figures, the public is still very disgusted by the exposure of such photos.

How should I put it? In fact, most of the public are double-standard people.

Deep down they really want to do this, but they don't dare to do so due to the constraints of social morality.

Therefore, it is not uncommon to see prostitutes and thieves in Hollywood in secret, but in public, they are all good social role models and moral models.

Even Leo, who changes women as diligently as he changes clothes, is apparently a charity ambassador and an environmental protection ambassador, and he claims that he is making contributions to all mankind.

But according to Gilbert Jr., Leo doesn't care about charity or environmental issues at all. He says these things just to add a halo to his identity.

By the way, Leo also had sex with Rachel McAdams at a masquerade party.

After that, Leo came back and excitedly told Gilbert that Rachel McAdams must play Catwoman because she was so hot.

However, this proposal was rejected by Gilbert Jr., as it was still too early for Catwoman.

What’s even more interesting is that after this explosive photo was exposed, there were suddenly rumors that a Hollywood producer who liked group sex had contracted HIV.

Most of Hollywood was so scared that they went to the hospital for check-ups. During that period of time, all kinds of party activities in Hollywood were quiet.

Entertainment reporters often take pictures of celebrity producers and directors who are worried about something at the entrances of major private hospitals, as if the earth is about to be destroyed at any moment.

After coming out, some people felt relieved, some had no expression on their faces, and some looked dead. It was a performance that was the essence of human expressions.

The most amazing thing is that even with this scandal, Wedding Crashers still achieved good results. According to interviews, most of the viewers are male, who want to see how hot Rachel McAdams is.

And Rachel McAdams did not disappoint these LSPs. Her subtle seduction made them unable to stop.

This can be considered an alternative marketing method, although I don’t know whether this marketing method was intentional by the film company or an accident.
