The year 1999 was coming to an end, and it was reported in many places, as if human society was coming to an end.

What can I do?

Many people can't care so much, singing, dancing, all kinds of hi, not worried at all, but there are many movies that use this apocalyptic gimmick, and many of them still have strong religious elements.

Especially the United States.

When Halloween comes, it's like a group of demons dancing, and there is such a movie, which was also given high hopes before, that is, "The End of the Devil" starring the famous movie star Schwarzenegger!

This movie was originally heavily promoted, after all, there was Schwarzenegger in it, and this movie did have a lot of gimmicks.

At the beginning, it is rumored that the well-known B-grade film director Sam Raimi was invited, you must know that this person is quite powerful, and his "Ghost Player" is a phenomenal work in the B-pole film.

The definition of a B-grade film means that it can't be released, or it wasn't shot for the sake of release, but it's just a film made by some movie lovers, and its plot content has a lot of similarities with the CUTL movie, and it's like a brother of the same origin.

Samraimi refused, though.

The reason is not said, but there are still a lot of gimmicks in this movie, and before it is released, isn't it that some people are boasting about a head-to-head showdown with "Inception".

Also, as far as this movie is concerned, with the blessing of Schwarzenegger and the superposition of various elements, the key is that the hot topic of the end of the world should be a World War.

So, it was released, and the result...

The North American box office came to an end, and it started out very well, but it soon fell off a cliff, and finally it was only locked in to less than $70 million.

And quite normally, it has been sought after in Europe, which is after all a religious stronghold.

As a result, the global box office only exceeded $200 million.

It should be said that the box office of 200 million US dollars is definitely not low, and this is still a horror film, the genre of apocalyptic films, which is quite good.

But!

This is Schwarzenegger's film, which has hyped up a lot of topics before, that is to say, a lot of money was spent on publicity, and such a world-class film only won 200 million US dollars in the end...... Losing money.

Moreover, the cost is more than $80 million publicly available.

200 million is in the end?

It's really over, and you can't go up anymore, so it directly produces a result.

"This year's global box office champion will be Inception!"

"It's almost locked in the championship! A masterpiece from an Asian director!"

"Inception shook the world!"

That's right, that's the result, and it's so shocking.

Of course, the previous Asian films were also quite good, and there was an obvious rise in the trend, and they performed well in the three major European film festivals, especially Japan, which has produced many film masters a long time ago.

Even many European filmmakers have come to Japan to study, not to mention film emperors like Akira Kurosawa, whose Oscar for Lifetime Achievement speaks for itself.

But this time is completely different.

This time it's the global box office champion!

No one would have thought that a film directed by an Asian director would make such a big box office accolade.

But right now, it seems that no matter how you look at it, it is difficult for a movie to surpass this super blockbuster.

Moreover, even at the end of the year, "Inception" was not completely released worldwide.

Chinese mainland has not stopped.

By the way, why stop making money?

In addition, Australia and other regions, although the box office is not much, but mosquitoes are small and not a piece of meat.

Of course, the film is still a Hollywood movie after all, but the director at the helm is a director from Asia.

But in any case, the name Yuki Kusano has become loud all over the world, and even Time Magazine wanted to interview him, but this person was not found.

In terms of Google's search, Yuki Kusano once ranked second in a short period of time, and so far this year, his search popularity must be in the top ten.

No way, Britney Spears is indeed too popular.

So, is Yuki Kusano really going to top the position of the top director in the global box office list?

Just as the new century was about to be ushered in, a movie was released.

"The Sixth Sense" is an absolute good film!"

"The box office is a big hit! "The Sixth Sense" topped the North American box office charts!"

"Bruce Willis!

"Osmond!

It's coming, it's really coming, and a strong challenger to "Inception" has appeared, which is this "Sixth Sense".

The film is translated as "The Sixth Sense" in Asia, because it's a horror movie altogether, well, a ghost movie.

After all, there are ghosts in it.,There are a lot of ghosts.,Even,The protagonist is a ghost!

But this movie is very interesting, from very brain-burning, it didn't tell the audience the truth at the beginning, and it wasn't until the end that everyone guessed, oh, it turns out that this doctor was dead before.

In short, although this movie is a ghost movie, the things highlighted in it are very interesting, and it can be said to be a story of redemption.

It's mutual redemption.

The male protagonist Bruce Willis redeemed the little boy, and this little boy is Osmond, and the little child who was born to see the evil spirits of the underworld also redeemed the male protagonist.

The connotation itself is very good, and the plot in it really makes people feel very interesting, plus the producer is very powerful.

Bowei's company is actually Disney's film distribution company, that is, there is a strong player called Disney standing behind it.

Soon, the box office of this movie continued to explode, and the box office champion status of "Inception" was about to be lost.

Of course, this time also came to the year 2000.

So...

"The final box office of "The Sixth Sense" was 670 million!

Congratulations to The Sixth Sense!"

"This year's movie box office battle is really exciting!"

Many media in Europe and the United States are excited, very excited.

Although I didn't say it directly, I was overjoyed.

Finally, I didn't let an Asian film director win the championship, and it's easy to say anything about other awards, but the box office is a place where hard power speaks, and it must not be allowed...

Wait a minute!

Soon, someone found out.

"The director of 'The Sixth Sense', Nate Masalam, is of Indian descent!"

"Is Asian cinema really on the rise?"

"Although he is American, the director is of Indian origin, which fully shows the talent of Asians in film!"

That's right, big question!

At first, almost no one noticed this, and that was that the director of "The Sixth Sense" was of Indian origin.

There's no way, who made the Indian movie sing and dance as soon as it comes out, does this "Sixth Sense" have a little curry flavor?

The European and American media were happy, but they were slapped in the head.

But it's nothing, anyway, he's an American of Indian origin, and he's absolutely obedient, isn't it?

However, it is not the same in Japan, because this "Sixth Sense" was released at the end of 1999.

"Congratulations to the 1999 World Box Office Champion Supervisor!"

"Yuki Kusano!World Box Office Champion Supervisor!"

"Super Superintendent! Yuki Kusano's absolute champion!"

Lose your marbles?

No, the Japanese media are all in high spirits!

It's very simple, because when Japan calculates the box office, not only does it have its own bizarre ration income, but also, even more strangely, that is, on many lists, the movies released in December of the previous year will be counted to this year.

In other words, many of the lists are calculated from December last year to November this year.

Okay, if you do the math, then, isn't Inception the global champion?

Of course you have to be happy!

As for what foreigners think, especially Europeans and Americans, will they think that Japan's list is a bit strange...

Don't care about these details, okay.

Anyway, in the hearts of the Japanese, Yuki Kusano is the global box office champion director!

So, Yuki Kusano is not only an overseer, but he also gets an interesting nickname.

Japanese national hero!
