- The release of "Shrek 2" on May 19 can be said to have kicked off the 2004 summer vacation. This animated blockbuster (production cost 0.75 billion) only took five and a half days to be released in North America. The box office exceeded 100 million US dollars, this is a blockbuster, this is summer!
There will always be a high-profile movie on the big screen in the summer, such as "The Day After Tomorrow", which was released on May 28, created by Roland Emmerich and starring Jake Gyllenhaal and others (production fee: 1 . 2.5 billion); "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" on June 4 (production fee 1.3 billion);
"The Terminal" jointly released by Spielberg and Hanks on June 18 (production fee: 0.6 billion); "Spider-Man 2" on June 30 (production fee: 200 million)
Welcome to see the dazzling light of summer vacation!
But these have nothing to do with "Wedding Day". It is not a member of that world. It will be screened one day in advance to grab the media space on the 28th (if it is squeezed into the 28th, no matter good or bad, the 29th will be "The Day After Tomorrow") ), there is no competitive relationship with these behemoths.
How much box office it will have during its screening week depends on Ye Wei's popularity and its own reputation.
It¡¯s not 100%. This kind of thing is not 100%. There will definitely be viewers who are faced with the problem of choice. If you want to watch a new comedy tonight, should you watch "Wedding Day"?
"Soul Dream" released on the 28th? If there is a competition, it can only be this R-rated comedy with a spoof nature.
MGM, one of the "Big Six" producers and distributors, has a production cost of 16 million and is scheduled to open in 1,500 theaters, starring Tom Arnold (supporting role in "Austin Powers"), Kevin Hart ("Austin Powers") "Scream 3" supporting role), Snoop Dogg (rap star)it is ambitious!
"Compared with the cost, cast, and distribution of "Wedding Day", it's like a second-hand truck leaning next to a plane, and it is indeed a remake.
Every summer will be very lively, but not every movie is qualified to participate.
But every movie to be released has publicity. Recently, the 28-year-old director and producer of "Soul Dreams" Jesse Tailo (African-American) was interviewed by Variety Daily and was asked about "Ye Weihe" "Wedding Day is Coming" is one of the recent hot spots. Your movies are all spoof comedies, all are screen debuts, and they are all works of ethnic minorities. "
Taylor laughed and replied: "This kind of situation is rare. I have no specific knowledge about "Wedding Day is Coming", but I am not worried about competition. I really am not worried."
Of course! The reason why he is willing to answer such boring questions is because he doesn't take it seriously at all, competition! ? Which country is this a joke?
?? 1 theater VS more than 1,500, 2 million production fees VS 16 million, how stupid do you have to be to think like this! It doesn't matter if the other party has a superstar guest star. If a star star guest star can make a huge amount of money at the box office, no movie in the world will lose money. What about "Wedding Day is Coming"? It's just a crappy commercial hype.
Originally, Tairo didn't have this idea, but now it's a joke. When he mentioned it to his friends, he became overjoyed: "It's not just "The Day After Tomorrow", it's also "Wedding Day" that causes me trouble, hahaha! My mommy , 16-year-olds are the hardest hit, I¡¯m going to be whipped like a black slave on a southern plantation, hahaha!¡±
Many people read the report and came to laugh at it.
Co-producer David Rubin laughed and said: "You really shouldn't answer this question, they are stealing our popularity! This is their conspiracy." Executive producer Paul Haar said: "We are R-rated, for adults People watch it, they should be G-rated, for children, so there¡¯s not much competition. Wait, man, I just realized that we¡¯re releasing it in a first-tier theater, and they¡¯re in a second-tier theater, so it doesn¡¯t seem like there¡¯s much competition.¡±
"If that kid is in front of me, I have to slap him and tell him that this is the strength of a prank!" Tom Arnold seemed to have a strong sense of humor in his jokes.
¡°He¡¯s just a baby crying for candy. He doesn¡¯t know how to be funny.¡± Kevin Hart was also dissatisfied.
This is all because of that article "The Past and Present Life of Parody". How many people who got lucky and made money by relying on what Ye Wei said as "cheap and stupid parody" are unhappy with him. Who is he? A kid who has never done anything dares to make irresponsible remarks about their jobs? He's a piece of shit!
????????????????????????? Not even a fart, a fart can stink for a while, and he and his "prank masterpieces" will disappear with a pop, and no one will be able to stink.
compete! ? Everyone almost died laughing.
¡¡
¡°I-don¡¯t-want-no-teenage-queen! (I don¡¯t want any teenage queen!)
I-just-want-my-movie-dream! (I just want my movie dream!)
If-I-die-in-the-studio-room! (If I die in a movie studio!)
Box-me-up-and-drive-me-home! (put me?Get into the coffin and drive home! )
Put-my-camera-upon-my-chest! (Put my camera on my chest!)

In the sound effects studio, near the early hours of the morning, there was only one black-haired boy still working in front of the mixing console, proudly singing Ye Wei's version of the "Full Metal Jacket" military song!
The singing is resounding¡ª¡ª
¡¡
A few days ago, Ramo-Willis received an invitation from Ye Wei to attend the screening of "Wedding Day is Coming". Although her old man had an out-of-control fight with him, she maintained a good friendship with him and Lily, so she She happily agreed, as she would not do anything stupid if the old man did it.
The old man's recent fortune is really not good. "The Whole Ten Codes" has been released for more than a month. However, this movie, which cost 40 million in production fees (although a large part of it was the old man's salary), only received a measly 1,600 yuan. With a box office of over RMB 10,000, from more than 2,600 opening theaters to just over 50, the Rotten Tomatoes freshness rating is 4%
That is equivalent to saying, "You are a puddle of vomit that has been vomited out, eaten back into your stomach, and vomited out again!"
Needless to say, with such a reputation, the sales of video discs in the future will also be terrible. "The Whole Eleven" and "The Whole Twelve" are all daydreams. It is impossible to recover the cost. Cheyenne Enterprises has suffered another disaster. Remember the punch. As for how much money she would lose, she didn't know, but looking at the old man's dark face, she knew it would be a lot.
There is no time for Cheyenne businesses to make money. She had already said that Arnold Rifkin was a sycophant who cheated money and would only use tricks to make the old man happy. If he continued like this, the company would collapse sooner or later. The old man is not completely stupid. He participated in the production of "Confrontation", which was completed a few days ago, and got involved in Rifkin's affairs.
But what can be done? He is not a movie wizard. He is great when he is in front of the screen, but he is a mess behind the scenes.
This Sunday, the old man who was free took the three sisters out for breakfast again. At Belle's strong request, they went to the Ivy Restaurant.
The morning sun shines on the dining area outside the restaurant, making the smiles of the customers even brighter. From time to time, they look at the table where a screen star is sitting. Hot and delicious food.
And at the best photo location across the street, a group of paparazzi gathered there, chatting and laughing that could be heard from here, and their cameras captured every move of the star.
"Those papa rubbish are so annoying!" Lalu couldn't bear it, "Why didn't anyone come and trick them away, like what Ye Wei did last time."
Hearing this name, Belle suddenly remembered something and exclaimed: "That funny guy! I haven't seen him for a long time. He seems to have become a star recently. It's really interesting."
"How about we go into the restaurant to eat?" Willis had a faint smile on his old face, and seemed not to have heard his daughters talking about Ye Wei.
Ramo rolled his eyes: "Why come to Ivy Restaurant to eat?" She cut the steak with a knife and added: "That interesting guy is called VIY now, and one of his remake movies will be released soon. Very early on, I wasn¡¯t surprised at all that he was able to achieve results.¡±
"What's the name of the movie? The wedding day is coming!" Larugang asked, and he remembered it, actually because he heard about it more than once. She became interested, and stopped cutting the fried eggs with her knife and fork, and asked: "Dad, don't you want to cooperate? How's it going?"
"Haha." Ramo let out a weird laugh. Lalu and Belle still didn't know what happened in the past six months. They didn't care, and she didn't say anything.
Willis¡¯s face turned cold for a moment, and then he smiled again, ¡°The deal didn¡¯t work out, that guy is very stubborn.¡±
Ramo gnawed on the delicious beef and said lazily: "It was originally a movie, but then it changed. It's Hollywood. But he found someone else to invest in him, and "Wedding Day is Coming" may be able to see some returns. Really It¡¯s hard to say, a movie costing tens of millions can do this, but who knows if a movie costing several million can do that.¡±
"Ramo" Willis could hardly keep his smile, "No matter what he does, it has nothing to do with us!"
Belle did not end the topic, and said a little angrily: "His movie is going to be released, have you invited us to see it?" The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became. Thinking about that time, the funny guy couldn't say more to them. Are you so happy that you are not afraid of angering them this time?
"He hasn't replied to me about the dog yet!" She said with a bossy look on her face, "Dad, call him and ask him to come over."
"Haha." Ramo laughed again, said nothing more, and continued eating steak.
"That's fine, I want to ask him about the moviething. "Lalu was even more interested, expecting a call from his father to summon Ye Wei.
"No, this is our Sunday, don't be disturbed by outsiders." Willis naturally refused his daughters' request, "Don't talk about him, there's nothing to ask about his movie, it's just messing around, he's a bit messy It¡¯s okay, but movies don¡¯t just work. That won¡¯t work. Let¡¯s talk about something else. Is there anything you want to buy?¡±
"Yes! I have it!" Belle shouted.
? ??Nonsense? Ramo still didn't want to talk. The movie matter should be settled with movies. If "Wedding Day" has a box office exceeding "The Whole Ten Yards"
Is this possible? But it's not a sin to imagine. If it happened, I really don't know what the old man would say. I just hope he won't be so angry that he is admitted to the hospital.
