Director’s Legend

Chapter 294: [Applause but not]

No matter how the domestic media complained to Shao Shuaijun, it can't change the embarrassment that "500 Days with Summer" failed the Oscar. Fortunately, Shao Shuaijun thought very openly. Shao Shuaijun has also tempered his temper since he fought against the Baodao Golden Horse Award and the Hong Kong Golden Statue Award.

The world will not revolve around a certain person. Winning an award is more like icing on the cake. At Shao Shuaijun's current level, he hopes to win the award, but he hopes to be recognized by the audience. A small and fresh film, unexpectedly won the box office of 320 million US dollars, is already a success.

Although Oscar did not give any nominations for "500 Days with Summer", he sent an invitation to Shao Shuaijun. I hope that Shao Shuaijun will be the guest of honor at the 81st Oscar. I ignored Shao Shuaijun in terms of artistic achievement, but had to look down on Shao Shuaijun in terms of popularity.

Today's Shao Shuaijun, this is a giant crocodile in the entertainment circle, where there is him, the ratings are indispensable.

No matter how low-key he is, the representative of the American Dream is not a light sentence. Just like Bill Gates is the most spectacular and eye-catching one anywhere. The Oscar is still the supremacy of art, which does not mean that the organizers do not want to use their brains to increase the ratings.

But Shao Shuaijun simply refused, because they arranged for Shao Shuaijun to award the best director.

Isn't this to expose the scars on Shao Shuaijun?

So far, he has won a Saturn Award for Best Director.

Therefore, this year’s Oscars ends here, and has nothing to do with Shao Shuaijun...

Drinking, hanging around, walking around with relatives, this year has passed in the excitement. Because of the special plane, Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu are running on both sides. They are still in Luzhou today, and they will go to Bingcheng tomorrow.

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, all those who had jobs went to work, and Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu also returned to the Dream Entertainment Group in the capital.

From the New Year’s atmosphere, everything slowly entered a normal working state.

As soon as I arrived in Beijing, there was good news from the United States that Summit Entertainment had reached an agreement with 20th Century Fox.

Summit Entertainment acquired 5 films from the old "Planet of the Apes" series (1968-1973) under Twentieth Century Fox at a price of US$50 million, and all the copyrights of one film in the new version "Planet of the Apes" (2001). And the TV version of "Planet of the Apes" (1974) 14 episodes, "Return to the Planet of the Apes" (1975) 13 episodes, all copyrights.

It also includes all copyrights of the original author Pierre Buhler's novel of the same name.

This is great news. Shao Shuaijun immediately issued instructions to the editorial department of Summit Entertainment to compile the latest prequel movie of "Planet of the Apes"-"Rise of the Apes" according to the outline he provided. When the script is written, it is estimated that the production team of "Avatar" has been completed, and it was just right to invite this team to use facial expression capture technology to shoot the movie.

Without facial expression capture technology, this movie depicting apes can never surpass the old five-part movie.

With this technology, this is the classic movie that conquered the world. After all, no matter how good the original version is, the image of the orangutan is really frustrated.

In a few days, Shao Shuaijun took the edited "Pumping Heart" to Hollywood. The film editing was completed, and the post-production process also dealt with the flaws. Now, as long as the soundtrack is dubbed and recorded on Hollywood, the soundtrack can be released. .

After the movie was submitted for review, the PG level was quickly determined.

This level in the American film classification is ordinary. It is recommended to watch with parents. Some shots may make children feel uncomfortable. At the tutoring level, some content may not be suitable for children to watch-there are basically no scenes of sex, drug abuse and **** in this level of film, even if there is a short time, in addition, the horror and violence scenes will not exceed the appropriate range.

After grading, the release schedule is determined.

Although Shao Shuaijun made "500 Days with Shamo" hit the box office, he can't guarantee that "Peng Rang Heartbeat" will also be hot. There is really not much reason for this movie. Shamo is an adult's worldview of love and love, and his heart is just Whether the "war" between children can attract people in this impetuous society is unknown.

In the end, Shao Shuaijun did not choose a good schedule, but put the movie in April, and tried the water in the low season of spring. After all, there is only a cost of less than 10 million yuan, and you can't lose much if you lose. The schedule is set, and the rest is publicity. There are no big names in the film, so I went to the battle to publicize.

The whole month of March is the promotional period of the film, and it will be shown on a small scale in major cities, or exhibited or participated in various animation festivals and other programs.

In addition to Shao Shuaijun’s busying with the promotion of "Heartbeat", there are two more films to worry about. The first one is "Slumdog Millionaire", which is filmed back from India and is undergoing post-production in Hollywood, and the other is naturally chasing. Meng Jiahe's highlight "IMAX-3D Yupu Tuan".

"Slumdog Millionaire" is the highlight of Summit Entertainment this year, and it may be scheduled to be released in September to hit the Oscars. This kind of film that is destined to be awarded has a very long screening period. It can start to hit major awards in September, and then hit Osaka in one fell swoop, and finally win both fame and fortune.

As for "IMAX-3D Jade Group", it will be screened first in Asia. When it premieres in Hong Kong, it will be scheduled before May Day, so that mainland audiences can come to Hong Kong during the holidays. This is a Fengyue movie that exists to test the IMAX-3D technology. If the response is good, it will also be screened around the world.

As the producer of the two films, Shao Shuaijun is obliged to help arrange the various matters of the film.

After complicated planning, the gears were finally determined, and the publicity started step by step. This year can be said to be the year with the largest number of movies released in the history of Pinnacle Entertainment, and the work is particularly busy.

In April, "Fantastic" was released; in May, "IMAX-3D Yupu Tuan" may land in North America; in June, "Dancing Out of My Life 3" was released; in July, "Twilight Saga: Lunar Eclipse" Released; in September, "Slumdog Millionaire" was released; in November, "Detective Sherlock Holmes" was released; in December, "The Hangover 2" was released.

Although there is only one "Lunar Eclipse" that is clearly a box office bomb, several other movies are also money-sucking machines. With the box office revenue of some co-produced films, it is very likely that the total box office this year will exceed 2 billion. This will be Peak Entertainment's two consecutive breakthroughs in the limits of independent film companies and the performance of top Hollywood film companies.

In March, the small-scale screening of "Punching Heart" ended.

After the screening, the response was mixed. The netizens who were lucky enough to watch praised it on the Internet, but the media people reacted extremely.

On Rotten Tomatoes, there were 72 film reviews, 45 of them passed, and a freshness of 62. Media people who didn't like it said it was a boring movie, and those who liked it praised it as a refreshing soul. Confrontation in pairs, the freshness seems pitiful.

"The Heartbeat" is a niche, special movie. It puts you in a warm, interesting, and humanistic atmosphere, until it finally gives you a look that doesn’t seem so unpleasant. A reliable and beautiful story."-Kerry Reggie of the Los Angeles Times gave a 6/10 rating, a tomato.

"This movie feels static, how? It's a diorama of life in the 1960s, not a living story. Shao doesn't seem to know the United States."-Sean Mins of "Salt Lake City Tribune" gave it to A score of 2.5/4 is also a rotten vegetable leaf.

"This is the best movie Shao Shuaijun has ever made."-James Bollatini of ReelViews website gave a 3.5/4 rating, bright tomatoes.

"It's great, the little deer bumps." —SAO gave 9 points.

"Some people are shallow, and some people are inferior. One day you will meet a rainbow-like person. When you meet this person, you will feel that other people are just clouds. I like this line."— —Wordcofo also gave 10 points.

The media was opposed and the audience praised it. No matter how it was evaluated, the popularity has already been hit, and the premiere of "Popular" did not take much effort. On Friday, April 3, directly landed at 3,226 theaters in North America.

Three days later, the first weekend box office was released. In this off-season movie where only one "Fast and Furious 4" was released, "Pumped" is not as strong as the previous Shao Shuaijun movies, and not only failed to keep up with "Fast and Furious 4" 7095. The pace of ten thousand dollars is not even as good as the 32 million dollars of the bad movie "Monsters vs. Aliens" released in the second week.

Only received 10.35 million US dollars in the box office, ranking third in the weekend box office.
