Chapter 417: Pick up the golden rice bowl

"Global $900 million ......"

"Awesome!"

Wang Tianyi gave a thumbs up and said: "The salary of 20 million is stable!"

Ding Cheng waved his hand, Venom was downgraded, although it was not as good as Aquaman, but it was okay, the investment was less than 100 million, which made Columbia and Penguin smile from ear to ear.

proved its box office appeal for the second time, especially in Southeast Asia, where the domestic contribution is one-third, and South Korea is also a lot, plus island countries and corners, accounting for at least half of the world.

"Now you're definitely the hottest bait in Hollywood!"

Wang Tian exclaimed: "Not to mention anything else, the Southeast Asian ticket warehouse alone can casually return to the capital and make money, which is basically a good deal that makes sure you don't lose money." ”

"Now that the economy is so bad, don't even think about letting the audience pay less than 100 million, what kind of bullshit big directors and big stars, if you don't get it right, you will hit the street. ”

"Don't you see Ang Lee ...... too"

Ding Cheng waved his hand, the twin killers really met Waterloo, not only the box office was poor, but even the reputation was not good, this time Director Li Da was really dangerous.

Three consecutive major investments hit the streets,

Spielberg can't even bear it!

There's no way, everything that should have been said at the beginning has been said, and no one can stop it if you have to insist on going your own way.

Wang Tian is a pity: "There are too few superhero books, otherwise if you go all the way, wouldn't you be super god?"

"Do you think Marvel will make temporary substitutions, anyway, the Avengers four is the finale, Iron Man, Captain America or something......"

"How is it possible?" Yao Zai next to him smiled: "Captain America can't be killed even if he is killed!"

Ding Cheng couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "Are you stupid?"

Everyone laughed, even if the character that has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people is invited by Marvel, he will not be able to play it!

It's a thankless thing, it's my duty to act well, in case the audience doesn't like it......

It's better to go directly to a new hero, such as Aquaman, with Warner's urine, even if the second part is filmed, it must still be Wen Ziren's partner, and the proven case is the safest.

If a movie is a big hit, it will normally have a sequel, and if the sequel is a big hit, then it will continue to have a sequel to the sequel, become a series, and even develop a cinematic universe.

The reason why the six are tough is because it has more or less several blockbuster series of movies, such as Paramount's Mission Impossible series, Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean, and Universal's Fast and Furious......

However, because of the strong rise of Marvel's hero universe, even the six major have switched to the camp, and multiple series of movies share the integration of the same worldview.

To compose a universe, you need at least three or more movie series, and you need to have substantial interactions between the series.

In most cases, the series only needs to pay attention to the connection between the previous game and the sequel, while the universe needs to pay attention to the linkage and setting between multiple series, so it is far more difficult than a movie series.

To put it bluntly, it is an upgraded and enhanced version of the movie series.

The reason why the Big Six all want to create their own cinematic universe is because once the universe is established, it will be a constant stream of money printing machines.

Although the series of movies in the universe share a world view, they have a high degree of independence from each other, and as long as the setting of the movie does not conflict with the world view, the range of play is quite free.

What's more, once a work hits the street, it will have a negative impact on the sequel brand, but the series in the universe does not have this problem, even if A hits the street in the case of the same world view, B will definitely not be affected, this kind of inclusiveness is the most coveted goal of all investors.

As long as the brand influence is established, like a cow, all the series under the universe will be able to enjoy the dividends brought by the brand in the future, regardless of the innate box office chassis or publicity popularity, don't want it.

It can even cover all kinds of peripherals, games, animations, etc., looking at the world, Guan Gong vs. Qin Qiong is also a timeless gimmick, in the universe, the audience can see various popular characters join forces to fight against the enemy, and it can also satisfy the desire to win each other.

Of course, this kind of game can only be thought of by the top giants, just as every movie series will have a theme or core, a complete movie universe needs a main plot that can connect its various series.

Such a storyline is not something that can be made casually, and even with the support of the original work, it takes a very deep skill of the director and screenwriter to combine the material with the series of movies and make an appropriate adaptation.

The early stage is ambitious, and the scale of planning is much larger, because it contains many different series, and the sequence, linkage, and assembly of each other need to be precise step by step, and even the specific characters need to be taken into account which series.

It is also necessary to make reasonable coordination and distribution with the main story, which is undoubtedly several times more difficult, and the most important thing is sustainability and sustainability, any setting, plot, and characters that will block the development path are usually not suitable for moving to the movie universe.

It takes a great helmsman, and most directors tend to care more about the integrity of their series when shooting, and then ignore the most critical continuity of the cinematic universe.

If it is not handled well, the consequences are fatal, because it will block the development path of all universes.

After all, there was only one Jobs,

There is only one old man Stan Lee, the father of Marvel!

Starting with Iron Man in '08, announcing the rise of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, followed by the X-Men franchise...... The Big Six have entered the market, some of which are expanding their popular series of movies to the universe, but the quality is uneven, and some have even been stillborn, such as the so-called Dark Universe of Universal Pictures.

Later, I found that it was not easy to get it, so I simply changed my way and smashed it directly with money, after Disney acquired Fox, the X-Men copyright was about to return, and there were so many cards in my hand that I couldn't finish playing.

The Marvel Universe has a total of 20 works, with a total profit of more than $20 billion, and occupies 4 of the top 10 box office lists in film history.

Poor Star Wars was originally a super-national IP, and its popularity in North America even far exceeded that of the MCU, but its global influence was killed in seconds.

What's even more tragic is DC, which is not inferior to Marvel in terms of precipitation, but it has messy planning in the construction of the cinematic universe, and often makes self-destructive developmental behaviors, beating Superman and Batman to a pulp.

Wen Ziren is also ambitious, wanting to create the first horror universe, starting from Chainsaw Horror, to The Conjuring and Annabelle, although the audience is small, the production cost is low, and you can play a big game with fifty or sixty million.

It is also Warner's currently best-run universe series, which not only has a stable ability to absorb gold, but also has a very healthy development.

Everyone is not to be outdone, and they are brave enough to get into the wind, the series of movies, especially for actors, can be described as a golden job, once they are picked up, they don't have to worry about the rest of their lives!
