Chapter 2039 2041【Three things Hollywood doesn''t touch】
??But stars are all worth the price of seafood. Today they are famous and can earn millions of dollars for a movie. Tomorrow, if the price drops to hundreds of thousands of dollars, no one may be willing to ask for it.
? Many celebrities developed the habit of squandering when they were popular. When they become popular, they cannot change their habits for a while, and they continue to spend money according to their habits when they were popular, which will naturally lead to huge losses.
?Many Hollywood stars, singers, NBA stars, and boxing champions went bankrupt because of this.
The same is true for Johnny Depp. Although he is still not out of style, the salary for starring in new films such as "Sweeney Todd", "Public Enemies" and "Public Enemies" will never be as high as when he starred in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series.
?Because the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series can be without anyone but Captain Jack Sparrow, so he can demand a high salary. It’s not uncommon for a movie to take away one or two billion dollars.
But movies like "Sweeney Todd" and "Public Enemies" don''t have to use him. Naturally, he can''t ask for the salary. He can get a salary of 20 to 30 million US dollars, which is considered high, and it may even drop. It is also very possible to take on roles with a salary, so the income will drop significantly.
But he usually spends money according to the standards when filming "Pirates of the Caribbean", so naturally he cannot make ends meet.
?Therefore, in order to avoid his own financial crisis, he took over the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" and also signed a contract with Universal for three new films in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series.
…
"Pirates of the Caribbean 4" was released, but its reputation was not as good as the first three films.
After all, after watching the first three films, the audience’s appetite has been whetted. Especially at the end of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", when the nine pirate kings battle the British navy, the momentum, scene, and sense of history are already full.
? And "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" is just about searching for the Fountain of Youth. Compared with the grand themes of the first three films, it is just an extra story, and the response is naturally not that good.
?However, even so, the return of Captain Jack still makes movie fans happy. Therefore, in the end, the North American box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" was US$230 million, and the global box office exceeded one billion US dollars.
?Such good box office results prove that Captain Jack Sparrow can still play. Therefore, Universal Pictures immediately arranged "Pirates of the Caribbean 5".
…
one year, one month.
Xiang Nan has finalized the production plan for the new year.
"The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn (Part 1 and 2, "The Incredible Hulk", "Game of Thrones", "Morbius", "The Hangover Part 2", "Taken", "Horrible Bosses" and " Men in Black 3".
"The Twilight Saga 4" continues to tell the love story of Bella and Edward; in " Gambit 2 ", Gambit will seek help from Mr. Sinister and restart the timeline of the X-Men universe; " The Hangover 2 " continues the excitement The nonsense life; Agent J in "Men in Black 3" will travel back in time to save the world.
Vampire Morbius is a member of Marvel''s Midnight Sons superhero team. He was originally a talented doctor, but unfortunately he suffered from a rare blood disease.
In order to cure his illness, he used vampire bats for treatment. Although the blood disease was cured, the side effects also made him a person who needs to constantly **** blood, so he called himself a vampire and joined the Midnight Sons team.
He has many abilities such as flying, rapid healing, radar, sound waves, etc. In other words, he is the real [Batman].
?This character is actually very charming. On the one hand, he is extremely talented, but in order to cure blood diseases, he was forced to become a vampire, which is very tragic. On the one hand, although he is a vampire, he is unwilling to hurt others. He drinks artificial blood made by himself, and is also willing to fight evil and help those in need. From this point of view, he is also a hero.
So this character is actually very rare. He lives in darkness and yearns for light. He is in a similar situation to anti-heroes such as Ghost Rider, Blade Runner, and Punisher. Therefore, the team of Midnight Sons was formed.
??Marvel’s Midnight Sons cinematic universe is different from the X-Men cinematic universe, Spider-Man cinematic universe and Avengers cinematic universe. This cinematic universe is all anti-hero movies, and it is a world composed of magic and science.
Darker, crueler, more ruthless, and more bloodthirsty, the movies produced are at least PG13 level. This type of comic-book movie can bring a different viewing experience to the audience, and is also an effective supplement to other Marvel movies.
…
"Evil Boss" tells the story of three unlucky guys in the workplace who were cheated by an unscrupulous boss and decided to find ways to get revenge on the boss.
Encountering trouble in the workplace is inevitable for every wage earner. Especially the oppression and bullying from superiors are unavoidable and extremely painful.
Therefore, fighting back against unscrupulous bosses is the aspiration of every wage earner. Therefore, the comedy "Horrible Bosses" must have a future.
"Hurricane Rescue" tells the story of a retired agent who resolutely went to a foreign country to rescue his daughter after her daughter was kidnapped.
??The original version starred Liam Neeson, and three films were filmed in a row. Each film received good box office and reputation. Therefore, it was praised by movie fans and even formed a hot meme called "Hollywood Three Don''ts".
If you don’t touch Keanu Reeves’s dog, he wiped out the entire Russian gang because of a dog gang in the “John Wick” series; if you don’t touch Jason Statham’s express delivery, he did it in “The John Wick” series. In "Shi Express", you play the role of a courier. In order to deliver the express to the designated place on time, it is simply a matter of God getting in the way and killing God, and Buddha getting in the way.
The last one is Liam Neeson’s daughter. In the "Hurricane Rescue" series, he also went on a killing spree to save his daughter, and was unrivaled.
Xiang Nan knew that this movie was wonderful, so he decided to make it.
…
In January, Xiang Nan and Cong Shan went home to visit their parents. After the Spring Festival, I returned to Hollywood.
While in the Mainland, Xiang Nan interviewed some female artists from the Mainland for "Hurricane Rescue".
?However, what disappoints him is that although there are many female stars born in the 1990s, there are only a few who have good acting skills and can show their talents.
On the one hand, with the influx of capital in the mainland entertainment industry, artists become popular earlier and earlier. They have already become popular under the operation of capital before they have mastered sufficient acting skills. After they become popular, they are busy making money through dramas and endorsements, and they never have time to concentrate on their acting skills.
On the one hand, with the influx of capital, bad money has also driven out good money. Capital can buy ratings and popularity, creating the illusion that dramas and movies are popular, allowing a large number of bad movies and dramas to occupy the market.
As for truly good dramas, because they spend all their money on production, they have no money for marketing and hype, so they cannot compete with those bad movies and dramas. As time goes by, bad dramas and bad movies naturally become popular. Artists always act in bad movies and dramas, so naturally it is impossible to cultivate good acting skills.
