- Chapter 309 The Unstoppable Footsteps
June in Hollywood is undoubtedly very exciting. Since the beginning of this month, major companies have begun to release their flagship films this year. Paramount Pictures' "The Truman Show", Warner Pictures' "The Truman Show" "A Perfect Murder," Buenais Films' "Six Days, Seven Nights" and more. *1*1*
One film after another was released one after another. Although each film had disappointing flaws, it still made countless movie fans hooked. .
But these are not enough to cover up the glory of the film "Notting Hill" starring Julia Roberts and directed by Roger Michell.
This is Julia Roberts' third romantic comedy-style work. Prior to this, "Pretty Woman" a few years ago not only achieved good results at the box office, but was also praised in terms of film reviews. , and it was that film that earned Julia Roberts her first Oscar nomination for Best Actress. The second romantic comedy film was "My Best Friend's Wedding", which was released last year. Before that film was released, it can be said that Julia Roberts's acting career seemed to be in vain in the past few years. There wasn't much that stood out. It was the release of that romantic comedy that made her acting career popular again.
It is precisely for these reasons that many movie fans are full of expectations for this film, which completely follows the style of "Pretty Woman" and "My Best Friend's Wedding".
The premiere was, as always, in Los Angeles. Hollywood side. After a brief interaction with fans and interviews with reporters, the screening stage of "Notting Hill" began.
The slightly cheerful scenery of England on the big screen made all the movie fans present feel relaxed. The same style as always made everyone feel familiar, even though they had already watched "My Best" A Friend's Wedding", but in Notting Hill. The love story between an American movie star and a shop owner still made many movie fans present excited.
I have to say that the film "Notting Hill" made countless fans present. They couldn't help but sigh to themselves, it turns out that this little person also has an unusual love history.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? by many film review organizations said that the big stars fell in love with me. . . In fact, if such a name is used, it may appear more vivid.
"This is a very good film. Although its story seems very childish, I have to say that the director of the film has completely captured the hearts of the fans. No I should say, young people Mr. Director, he has completely captured the hearts of movie fans, because this is one of his works!" Frank Bateman, a famous Hollywood film critic with a harsh and sarcastic tone, said just after the film was screened. Xuan's evaluation began. Although some of the words he said were very unpleasant, it has to be said that he gave this film a positive evaluation.
also. Harrison Seaman, a famous New York film critic, also commented: "The story is very interesting, the style is very humorous, and the film looks very relaxed. It is especially suitable for male and female friends. Or couples may watch it together, and there may be unexpected things. harvest.¡±
"The Chicago Sun-Times" commented on the film this way: "The film is very cheerful. The dialogue is very smart, and Roberts and Grant are simply lovable."
Julia Roberts is the heroine of the film, and Hugh Grant is the hero of the film. The words of the "Chicago Sun" are undoubtedly the greatest affirmation of the two leading actors in the film.
After "Notting Hill" was released, it earned an opening box office of US$21.81 million in its first three days. Although this figure is different from the US$41.52 million opening box office of "Collision" and the US$44.05 million of "Godzilla". The opening box office of US$47.74 million is comparable to the US$47.74 million opening box office of "Tomb Raider", but for a romantic comedy with a production cost of only US$42 million, it can earn more than 2,000 US dollars in its first three days. With a box office of 10,000 US dollars and good reviews, it is undoubtedly a very successful work.
It is also because of the release of this film that the name Big Mouth Sister has once again become the focus of the Hollywood media audience. It must be said that after Julia Roberts met the talented director, her acting career, which seemed a bit dusty, instantly changed. It got hot. {http:

So many media took advantage of her again, joking that the young talented director was Big Mouth¡¯s destined Prince Charming, and it was he who made Big Mouth¡¯s second spring bloom. . . Although these words seem a bit sour, it has to be said that there is some truth in them.
However, just when the outside mediaWhile the two were making fun of each other, a mesmerizing battle was going on in a luxurious apartment in Los Angeles. Outside, the big-mouthed sister who made people think of her was looking lazily and blushing. Lying on the large bed, he looked tired, but the excitement between his brows could not be concealed at all. From his iconic big mouth, seductive characters floated out one after another, resounding throughout the whole place. Room.
That slender figure is now naked. On the smooth lower abdomen, a pair of plump and tall breasts are changing into various shapes on a pair of big hands. The charming crimson cherries are now like a pair of peaches. As tempting as it is, a pair of round and slender breasts are also tightly wrapped around Yihu's waist. In the vaguely alluring private part, a fiery stick is swaying back and forth, mixed with "plop, plop" The seductive sound and puddles of water even wetted the sheets.
"Ah" finally, during the man's fierce sprint, her body could no longer help softening, and a soft moan sounded. Her pair of jade arms tightly hugged the other man's neck, and her body also At this moment, he trembled involuntarily.
And when he was hit by this, the man also roared loudly, and then the heat reached the heart of the flower, and it was boiling hot. It was instantly sent into the beauty's body. It was only then that the fighting in the entire room stopped.
"Hehe!" Xia Shang took a break for the first time, looking at his big-mouthed sister who was already paralyzed on the bed in his arms, and couldn't help flashing a smug smile. At this moment, the pair of big hands began to wander around each other.
"Ah don't make trouble!" Xia Shang's actions immediately aroused the beauty's anger, but although her mouth was full of tenderness, her face was also full of anger. But it was with a look of enjoyment, and that alluring appearance made ripples in his heart, and he vaguely remembered the scene last night. . . He came looking for Julia Roberts. It was originally discussed that she should play the heroine of "American Beauty", but she never thought that it would turn into a Wushan scandal.
It has to be said that a woman always refuses to welcome a man at first, but once she really gives her body to him, she becomes completely different, just like the Julia in front of her. At this moment, where is she? Still looking a little angry.
The whole person is like a little woman who is not satisfied with her desires. That lazy and wanton look directly caused the flame that Xia Shang had just extinguished to burn up again. Then he stopped being polite and pressed his body directly onto the other person. His big hands directly climbed up to the pair of plump breasts and rubbed them back and forth. After pinching it, the upright fiery body broke into the mud at the first time. The sound of sultry moans echoed throughout the room.
After all the actors for the film "American Beauty" he selected were in place, including Kevin Spacey, Julia Roberts, Jessica Alba, etc., the preparations did not take much time. At the end of June, filming started.
July. It is also a hot month. The American Idol program, which first shocked the United States, started the audition process at the same time in many cities across the United States, in addition, in Hollywood. . . It started as early as May, and the promotional sci-fi blockbuster "The End of the World" was officially released on the first day of July.
This science fiction blockbuster, which cost US$140 million, was definitely the most expensive movie last year after "Titanic". It was also produced by Storm Pictures and the Hollywood gold medal duo of Jerry Bruckheimer and Michael Bay. First time working together.
The cast of its actors is undoubtedly very luxurious. As a famous action star, Bruce Willis's appeal is absolutely unquestionable. In addition, Ben Affleck and Liv Tyler, the supporting actors and actresses, are also rising stars in Hollywood. Rising Hollywood stars, as for the other actors, they are all second-tier stars with a very high appearance rate.
It can be said that the reason why the film "The End of the World" is so expensive is that in addition to the huge cost of special effects and stunts, the actors also spent a lot of money.
But I have to say that this film is worth the money. It has a thrilling plot, huge scenes, wonderful stunts, beautiful music, the collision of family and love, humans fighting against natural crises, and heroes with flaws stepping forward. . . Scene after scene, it can be said that it combines all the commercial elements of Hollywood.
After the film was released, major entertainment newspapers, magazines, film critics, etc. also made relatively positive and positive comments about the film, such as "This is a breathtaking film" after 1998. Comments such as "refreshing", "thrilling, shocking" and so on have become the mainstream.
Facts have proved that the box office of "The End of the World" after its release is fully worthy of these rhetorical comments. July 1st is a Wednesday, and the film earned 18.11 million U.S. dollars on Wednesday and Thursday.?After the movie box office, in the next two weeks, it ranked first and second in the North American movie box office rankings with US$58.19 million and US$36.24 million respectively. In half a month, the movie box office grossed more than US$113 million, making This film is destined to be one of the first great films released this year.
¡°After ¡°The Mummy¡±, another film ¡°The Mummy Returns¡± was officially released to the public on July 17.
"The Mummy Returns" is the second film in the "Tomb Raiders" series that Storm Pictures first collaborated with Summit Entertainment and Miramax Films when it was first established. After the first "The Mummy" was released, After it was released in 1996, it has won the praise of countless movie fans with its magical plot and spectacular scenes. The global box office of the movie exceeds 400 million US dollars, which is enough to prove that this is a successful commercial film.
It is precisely because of this. prompted last year. Three film companies have decided to release the second part of the series. Compared with "The Mummy", "The Mummy Returns" not only still has Stephen Sommers as the director, but also its actors are basically The original cast, Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz, John Henson, etc., still play important roles in the film.
??Compared to "The Last Days", the premiere of "The Mummy Returns" was. It also appears to be more ambitious. In addition to the film's director, actors and important crew members, there are also the leaders of the three film companies who are mainly responsible for cooperation: Baofeng Film Company, Summit Entertainment Company and Miramax Film Company. Everyone, including Xia Shang, was present.
After the film was released, it lived up to its high expectations. During its three-day premiere, it earned more than 68.13 million U.S. dollars at the U.S. premiere box office, making it the film with the largest opening box office among all films this year so far. .
At the same time, with the release of the film "The Mummy Returns", many fans began to gain. I have begun to look forward to the third part of the "Tomb Raiders" series. However, regarding such a matter, neither Baofeng Pictures, Summit Entertainment nor Miramax Pictures have made any announcement on this matter. This view has disappointed many Tomb Raider fans and entertainment reporters.
August. Storm Films also has a flagship film released, which is "Blade" adapted from the superhero characters of Marvel Comics. As the most famous comic company in the United States, Marvel Comics has more than 5,000 superheroes. The most famous among them are undoubtedly Spider-Man, Iron Man, Blade and so on.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? For now, these superheroes have been adapted into movies. It is definitely not as popular as it was a few years later. In addition to the limitations of the thinking of the times, the failure of several Batman adaptations also definitely has an unshirkable responsibility.
It can be said unceremoniously that the success of the film "Blade Runner" will be an important factor affecting the proportion of superhero films adapted from Storm Films' next film. At the same time, , but also related to the development prospects of Marvel Comics.
This is a film that tests the waters, and its importance is absolutely self-evident. On the day of the film's premiere, Xia Shang not only came to the premiere in person, but also the general manager of Surprise Comics, Ah Wealard also came to the premiere in person, so you can tell.
However, speaking of which, the premiere of this film did not go well, because in recent years, "Saving Private Ryan", "According to Doomsday", "Crazy About Mary", "The Mummy Returns", and "The Last Days" have been released. , "Zorro", etc., many Hollywood blockbusters have been released one after another, and due to the continuous bombing, the Hollywood market has become quite saturated during this period.
After "Blade" was released, it only received a box office of just over 17 million US dollars at the premiere. This figure made many people, including Xia Shang and Avi Arad, feel disappointed.
Fortunately, after the film was released, it received good reviews, which more than made up for its shortcomings at the box office.
As a reviewer article published in the New York Times said: "It is undeniable that "Blade" is a successful film. Compared with the relatively good box office of "Batman and Robin," I prefer I hope to see this happen with Blade, so that at least it won¡¯t disappoint the public.¡±
Warner Bros. Pictures made the wrong hire, and they finally tasted the bitter fruit. Although the film "Batman and Robin" achieved a fairly good box office, it was entirely due to the popularity of the superhero "Batman" Charming, on the other hand, the crew that adapted it into a movie, and Warner Bros. Pictures, were given a thumbs-down by the majority of 'Batman fans'.
Comparatively speaking, this time Storm Films adapted Blade. Although it did not receive a very outstanding film, it did gain strong support from the majority of Blade fans. This is considered an unqualified success. There is no doubt that the successful adaptation of this film will have extraordinary significance for Storm Films to continue to adapt Blade Warriors and other superheroes in the future.
September is also a harvest season for Storm Films, starting with "Dirty Dancing" in March, "Tomb Raider" in May, "Notting Hill" in June, and "Dirty Dancing" in July. "The Last Day" and "The Mummy Returns", as well as "Blade" in August, have made Storm Films the fastest-growing film company in Hollywood this year.
The flagship film in September is undoubtedly the police action film "Rush Hour" directed by John Woo and starring Chinese actor Jackie Chan and black Hollywood actor Chris Tucker. It can be said that the filming and release of this film have a great influence on the film. For Baofeng Film Company, it is also of extraordinary significance.
The story of "Rush Hour" cannot be said to be very exciting, it can only be said to be passable. Hollywood police detective films usually use an old and a young, one black and one white, one reckless and the other mature partner. In the film, a vivid, but It is such a film that cost only 35 million US dollars to produce. In just three days after its release, it received more than 33 million US dollars in the premiere box office, making it almost catch up with its production cost. In this way The appearance of this scene will undoubtedly make people who were not optimistic about this movie feel dumbfounded.
It was the successful release of this film that opened a new era in Hollywood where Chinese actors and directors participated in film performances and productions. . . Of course, these are all things for later.
After being busy with the release of the film and the filming of "American Beauty", Xia Shang also received the good news that his French love Sophie Marceau, who was pregnant for ten months, finally gave birth to a lovely little princess for himself. . . .
