Chapter 770 The Secret of Summer Movies

Margot Robbie is a little excited. She played a small role in "Inception", the beautiful woman who talked to Fisher played by Robert Downey Jr.

There aren't many scenes, but all the shots have been preserved.

Although she was not a major character, she also attended the premiere as a member of the main creative crew.

Now she knows what it feels like to star in a blockbuster movie, to be the center of attention and to be the star. Even a small role like hers got her interviewed by several reporters.

“I’m very excited to be in this film, I’m a huge fan of Gilbert Junior and I’ve seen all his films in Australia.

I am very grateful for the opportunity to act in this movie. Although my role is not big, I still performed seriously. "

Margot Robbie looked in the direction of Gilbert Jr. with an appropriate expression of admiration on her face. At this time, Gilbert Jr. was surrounded by reporters.

“When I joined the crew and worked with director Gilbert Jr., I realized how the best crew in the world works.

I am very grateful to Director Gilbert for choosing me to be a part of this film."

Margot Robbie is certainly not the focus of attention today, there are so many stars in this film. Leo, Robert Downey Jr., and Kate Winslet were all surrounded by reporters.

Robert Downey Jr. also talked about his feelings about participating in this movie. He said:
"It was a wonderful experience, when I said I wanted to do a movie with Gilbert Jr., he gave me the opportunity to play Fisher Jr.."

Other actors also shared their feelings about participating in this movie, unable to hide their excitement.

Ellen Page, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Tom Hardy, Simon Pegg and others saw the finished film for the first time, and to be honest, they were a little shocked by the quality of the film.

It was the first time for them to work with Gilbert Jr., and now they felt the charm and strength of the No. 1 figure in Hollywood.

That’s right, he is the number one person in the world.

Previously, some media launched a campaign to vote for who is the best director in Hollywood. Gilbert Jr. won 57.4% of the votes, ahead of James Cameron's 18.7%, and remained in first place.

So, young Gilbert is the number one in Hollywood today, there is no doubt about it, the vote rate is there!
Of course, James Cameron's fans will definitely not accept this, because the global box office of "Avatar" has exceeded 25 billion.

Some media believe that this film can break the $3 billion box office, but no matter what, "Avatar" has created a new history.

Now the first and second place on the box office list are both James Cameron, and the third place is Gilbert Jr.'s movie "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King".

Of course, in terms of total box office, Little Gilbert had already been number one, winning easily by relying on mass production.

Gilbert Jr.'s father was also interviewed. He played Peter Browning, Fisher Jr.'s godfather, in the film and contributed some humorous scenes.

Gilbert Sr. often plays minor roles in Gilbert Jr.'s movies, and this time he has a bigger role, and he is very happy.

"He always brings me surprises in every movie he makes. This time, I have a lot of roles to play, which makes me very excited."

Gilbert Sr. was beaming with pride for Gilbert Jr.: "He has a better film talent than I do. He is unmatched."

Michael Caine has appeared in many of Gilbert's films and also plays a role this time.

He said: "I have a very good friendship with Gilbert Jr., and I can play any role as long as he needs me."

Needless to say, Leo is the focus of media attention and he is very familiar with such occasions.

"We did a lot of stunts during the filming. Most of the stunts in the film were real shots, and I did them myself. Gilbert Jr. wanted a stunt double, but I refused. I felt that such fun things must be done personally."

A reporter talked about "Tron: Legacy" which also had its premiere next door: "Leo, do you think this movie will be a threat to you?"

Leo shook his head in disdain: "No, I don't think this movie will be our rival. Everyone has seen how great Inception is."

Gilbert Jr. was also asked about "Tron: Legacy" by some reporters, and his answer was more polite.

“I hope that both of our films can achieve ideal results and contribute to the prosperity of the film market.”

This is called a pattern, but little Gilbert showed no mercy when he took action.

At the preview, a senior film critic said that "Tron: Legacy" was like a video game, but not as interesting as "Inception".

In fact, "Inception" is also a movie similar to a video game. The tasks performed by Dom Cobb and his team can be regarded as tasks in a game.

But the two films are presented in completely different ways. Joseph Kosinski, the director of "Tron: Legacy", is obviously not as mature in narrative skills as Gilbert Jr., and he doesn't know how to play various tricks.

Despite this, David Ellison released the film with full confidence, perhaps thinking that more audiences would appreciate "Tron: Legacy" after its release.

But the gap between the two films' premieres gave him a hard slap in the face, and few people thought he was the winner.

After the lights of the premiere faded, David Ellison returned to Sky Studios to wait for news about the midnight show, but the situation was not optimistic.

“As for IMAX theaters, we only secured 213 theaters, while Inception had 435 theaters.

As for other ordinary theaters, Inception opened its midnight show in 3400 theaters, and we have 850 fewer theaters than Inception."

Listening to the assistant's report, David Ellison's face darkened. He asked Martin Bob, "What did the theater say?"

"The theater chain is unwilling to schedule a screening for us, David. Our appeal in the summer season is far less than that of Little Gilbert. And in terms of word of mouth at the preview, TRON: Legacy is clearly inferior to Inception."

Martin Bob's report made David Ellison look even uglier, and Mel Gibson on the side interrupted and said, "We can do more work in theaters.

The midnight screenings can be left alone, but the first week screenings must be guaranteed.”

Martin Bob really wants to complain, it's easy to say, but theaters are not fools, how can they not know which movie has a chance of being a big hit in the summer?
No wonder Michael Ovitz didn’t come today because he was sick. I knew he was sick too.

David Ellison was talented, but he was clearly not as talented as Gilbert Jr. But David Ellison himself obviously didn't think so, and Martin Bob had a feeling that this would be a miserable failure.

Well, if this disastrous defeat can make David Ellison sober up, it will be worth it.

Most of the funds for "Tron: Legacy" were raised through financing. Sky Studios did not actually put in much money, so they could still afford to lose that little capital.

Martin Bob's feeling is very accurate, because "Tron: Legacy" is no match for "Inception".

Kevin Downes is the manager of Regal Cinemas in New York on the East Coast. Every summer season is the busiest working period for Regal Cinemas.

Kevin Downes was only promoted to this position in March this year. As a senior theater manager who worked his way up from a ticket seller to a management position, he has his own way of making judgments.

Generally speaking, summer movies have several characteristics: big investments, big productions, and they are simple enough. (End of this chapter)
