Reborn Hollywood Ladies

Chapter 1159 The Opponent on the Street ([-])
Negative comments from the media left the producers in a state of distress.Even if they found some people who were willing to say good things for them, they disappeared into the saliva of criticism without even making a fuss in such fierce media comments.

I'm afraid no one thought that the movie that was so promising before would be so powerful.

Some media raised questions about why "Green Lantern" fell like this.The director's strength and experience are good, and the actor's acting skills are considered online despite the comments of the actor himself, and the money spent on special effects seems to be a lot.So what exactly caused the film's box office to plummet when it first opened?

If there is any doubt, someone will analyze it. Some commentators think that there is a problem with their propaganda methods.

When it was decided that Ryan was the Green Lantern, comic fans had some objections because his temperament did not match the imagined Green Lantern, which was quite fierce.But the film studio didn't listen to those voices at all, and still focused on him during the promotion, which caused comic fans who should have been the main box office to be unwilling to pay for the protagonist they didn't like.

In addition, there is no villain at all in the released trailer.Just imagine how the hero's power can be reflected without even the villains appearing?It simply weakened the momentum of the entire film from the very beginning.

Of course, it is definitely not just a matter of publicity, there are also many problems in the film itself.Their problems can be seen when compared with the previously released "X-Men: The First Class".The same superhero movie costs twice as much as others, but the box office results in the first three days are almost the same.

How can the producer accept this?But even if it is a bitter pill, they have to swallow it with a smile.They also hope to earn a little more overseas. If even their own side admits to the pounce, will anyone abroad be willing to watch it?
Looking at the analysis report brought by Demi in the office, Lila felt that "Green Lantern" was really not wronged.

According to the survey, only 25% of the audience of "Green Lantern" is under the age of 20, which shows that young people don't like to watch it.We must know that young people are the main box office of superhero movies, even they are not willing to watch, so what are you waiting for if the movie doesn't rush?
At the same time, the word-of-mouth of the film was extremely poor.The freshness of Rotten Tomatoes is only 25%, the IMDB score is only 6.4, and the CinemaScore survey shows that the audience gave the film only a B grade.

"Boss, do we need to strengthen our publicity?" Demi was obviously frightened by the brutality of Green Lantern.

That's a movie with a cost of more than 3 million yuan, so it's a rush.Their films don't cost that much, and the shooting time is much shorter than the other party's, which is very worrying no matter how you think about it.

"The publicity is still coming as planned." Laila looked at her with a smile: "Don't worry, we won't be in such a miserable situation."

Demi admired the calmness of the boss. She felt that if she was standing in the position of the boss, she might have been restless because of being too nervous.But looking at the boss, he should talk and smile, as if he didn't pay attention to the situation in front of him at all.Does she still remember what kind of words she said before filming?

If it was normal, she wouldn't feel so nervous.It is not difficult to earn more than a billion with the ability of the boss. If it is not possible, hundreds of millions must be no problem.But it's different now, their goal is directly the 30 billion "Avatar", the tense atmosphere almost made her unable to breathe.

What she didn't know was that Lyra was not as calm as she thought.This version of "The Avengers" is quite different from the original version of the previous life. The exciting parts have been modified towards what she thinks are more exciting, and the parts she thinks are cumbersome have also been deleted or modified by her.It can be said that if you have read both versions, you may think that the relationship between the two is not great, just the same group of leading actors.

This is not the same as her previous "Lord of the Rings", no matter how you say it, there are still some original things in it.And the current "Avengers" is basically her thing.From the script to the special effects, more than 85% of the parts are full of her breath.

So she has no concept of the box office.If her modification can be accepted by the audience, she has more than half the possibility of achieving her expected goal.But if the audience can't accept her modification, maybe the box office won't even reach the billions of the original version.That would be a real embarrassment.

Under such circumstances, how could she not be nervous?It's just that she doesn't put the tension on her face.Because she knew that no matter how nervous she was, the movie couldn't change it.

In the following time, the box office of "Green Lantern" still did not see any improvement.The flutter is definitely a flurry, and the only problem facing the production side now is whether they can get back some of the capital.

At this time, they can only place their greatest hope on overseas releases, which is very embarrassing, because it is very unfortunate that the biggest ticket warehouse they hope for is precisely the East, which is rising very fast.But when it was released in the East, Laila was a hurdle that she couldn't get around anyway.

"I just said don't provoke her at the beginning? Now, how can we persuade her to give her more big screens?"

"The decision to make that was the result of the discussion at the top, right? At that time, who would have known that the movie could be so bleak? Would a company that had hoped for the movie push out the $[-] million that came to the door?"

The person next to him stopped the two from continuing to quarrel: "No matter how much you quarrel now, you can't get any results. Let's see how to solve this matter!"

"Why don't you find an intermediary to talk to Moran?"

"It can only be like this! The East is the last place we can look forward to, and we must recover the lost funds there! People in the East like to watch blockbuster special effects, aren't we right?"

This is what Leila has been unable to figure out. Why do they have a good relationship with Warner, but they insist on choosing a time that is obviously unfavorable for them to release their film?To say it was appropriate, they had a lot of other time to choose from during the summer vacation, even if it was for their own box office revenue, they shouldn't be with her.

What can make people give up interests will definitely be driven by more interests.

The production cost of "Green Lantern" plus the money for promotion and publicity has reached more than 3 million. Although Warner can also use this money, they naturally hope that more risks can be grafted onto other companies.Then cooperation with other companies is the best choice.

Not to mention big companies, some small film companies may join dozens of film companies to jointly invest with a production cost of 1000 million to ensure that the risk of investment failure is minimized.

In this case, someone has joined the investment queue with [-] million US dollars, and there is only one requirement, and that is to make Leila's movie an enemy, and do anything that can affect her from breaking the box office record of "Avatar".

How could Warner executives be unhappy?
