Michael Eisner now thinks about it, Disney really has a treasure and doesn't know it, and the Pirates of the Caribbean amusement project stands in Disneyland, but no one dares to adapt it into a movie.

He had heard from the people below that Jerry Bruckheimer had the idea of a pirate movie for a short time, but when he heard that Relativity Entertainment had already set up the project "Pirates of the Caribbean", he gave up.

One step slower, but what is lost is a huge market.

After thinking about it for a while, Michael Eisner gradually had some ideas, although the success of "Pirates of the Caribbean" made him feel a little slapped in the face, but for a businessman and professional manager, these are not problems at all.

Because "Pirates of the Caribbean" is popular, it is good for Disney.

Disneyland's Pirates of the Caribbean attraction can attract more customers, as evidenced by the data that Disneyland has returned in the past two days.

The huge flow of tourists that amusement projects can bring is not only the consumption of amusement, just like movie theaters, Disneyland has long passed the stage of selling tickets to make a profit, but is a huge comprehensive store.

But the benefits are not significant.

Michael Eisner thought about another possibility: if "Pirates of the Caribbean" becomes a super hit movie and can be serialized like "Star Wars", is there a need to expand the related attractions?

However, Relativity Entertainment has registered the relevant copyrights, and according to the relevant provisions of the copyright law, there is no problem with the existing amusement projects, but the expansion of new amusement projects related to Pirates of the Caribbean, even if it is a side game, will be very troublesome.

This kind of issue that directly involves the law, even if it is as tough as Michael Eisner, cannot be directly confronted.

Relativity Entertainment has an absolute copyright advantage by virtue of movies, but Disney also has a live-action movie business, can it take advantage of the popularity of "Pirates of the Caribbean" to create a pirate movie belonging to Disney?

Michael Eisner is thinking about following the trend.

This is nothing in Hollywood, and following the trend is not a shameful thing, but it is one of the safest ways to make movies.

The popularity of "Pirates of the Caribbean" may bring about a resurgence of pirate movies.

Although Michael Eisner is older and in a position of power, he still feels that he has enough judgment when it comes to live-action film projects, just as he did when he single-handedly built Disney's live-action film business when he was younger.

Michelle Martinez, senior president of Disney Pictures and senior producer in charge of the children's live-action film business, was called into his office by Michael Eisner on Monday afternoon.

Michael Eisner looked at his right-hand man and said, "Misha, what do you think of Pirates of the Caribbean?"

Michelle Martinez told the truth: "A very good commercial film. ”

Michael Eisner asks, "Can its success be replicated?"

Michelle Martinez understood what was meant and thoughtfully said, "I haven't studied this film specifically. ”

"You assemble a team. Michael Eisner ordered: "Study the feasibility of making a pirate movie based on the rides at Disneyland." ”

Michelle Martinez knew that Michael Eisner's order could not be discounted in any way, and immediately said: "I will start the preliminary argument as soon as possible. ”

In another luxurious office on the same floor, another powerful figure at Disney is also discussing "Pirates of the Caribbean" with others.

Roy Disney exclaimed: "Who would have thought that a more infantilized Pirates of the Caribbean would be so successful." ”

The person sitting opposite Roy Disney has a long face, and he is the famous Hollywood gold producer Jerry Bruckheimer.

"I also once thought about making a pirate movie. Some words came out of Jerry Bruckheimer's mouth that were completely different from what Michael Eisner said: "But there was only one motion at the time, and it was vetoed by Michael Eisner. ”

Jerry Bruckheimer smiled faintly, "When the project was launched, I told the people at Disney that there was still potential for pirate movies. He snorted disdainfully, "Michael Eisner, that idiot, even said that my project was going to be completely messed up!"

It's impossible to tell if it's true or not, but Roy Disney can get a message from it - Jerry Bruckheimer, Disney's most important partner in the live-action film business, is on the verge of collapsing his relationship with Michael Eisner, if not over.

He doesn't care much about the others, that's what he wants.

Roy Disney knows very well that the professional manager he hired for Disney back then has become a mountain on Disney's head, and the Walt Disney Group is no longer surnamed Disney.

That's all it takes, after all, Disney has changed from a mere studio to a media conglomerate, and the Disney family has gained enough benefits.

But Michael Eisner has become more and more powerful in recent years, and greed can't be filled at all, so he even plotted to drive the Disney family out of Disney......

The Disney family is already in a weak position within Disney, and if it weren't for Michael Eisner's tough personality and many enemies who brought many allies to Disney, it is estimated that he would not be able to hold out today.

"Michael Eisner's abilities have deteriorated so badly that he clearly can't keep up with the times. "Roy Disney is not at all polite to Michael Eisner," although Walt Disney has grown in his hands, he has now become an obstacle to Walt Disney's further development. ”

Jerry Bruckheimer smiled: "Michael Eisner does have a problem with his vision right now. ”

As Michael Eisner's partner in introducing Disney, Jerry Bruckheimer has always been on Michael Eisner's side, but commercial cooperation always comes first, when Michael Eisner became more and more tough, and even oppressed Bruckheimer Pictures and Disney's distribution of interests, Jerry Bruckheimer's attitude began to change.

Michael Eisner is not the original Michael Eisner, and Jerry Bruckheimer is the Jerry Bruckheimer of the year?

Roy Disney said, "Jerry, Disney has always believed in your vision. ”

Jerry Bruckheimer understood what he meant and responded: "Roy, maybe at first, I was confused by some appearances, but after recognizing the facts, I always thought that Disney should do more. ”

In just one meeting, two people who are dissatisfied with Michael Eisner have reached a tacit understanding.

It seems that because of the relationship between "Pirates of the Caribbean" and Jerry Bruckheimer's change of position because of his own interests, the contradictions within Disney began to develop in the direction of two-legged.

Burbank, in front of Relativity Entertainment, Ronan just got out of the car and was surrounded by reporters who were following and waiting here.

Escorted by several office building security guards, he walked towards the door of the company while answering some questions from reporters.

"Of course, success is expected!" Ronan said with a smile, "I said at the premiere that Pirates of the Caribbean would be a success!"

Now that the film has exploded at the box office in its first week, many media and professional organizations have predicted that the final North American box office will be more than $300 million, and he certainly has enough confidence to say this.

Another reporter asked: "There are many clues to the sequel left in the movie, such as those statues of David Jones, and the famous 'Flying Dutchman', which has been mentioned several times by several protagonists, do you plan to shoot a sequel?"

Of course, Ronan will not deny it: "Yes, the sequel is already in the daily plan of Shahai Entertainment. It's also an opportunity to throw out new promotional materials and continue to attract attention: "From the very beginning of Pirates of the Caribbean, we had a whole trilogy in mind. Haven't you noticed?Captain Jack Sparrow's origins, why he became a pirate, etc., all need to be explained, and the worldview will be further expanded. ”

When it's time to brag about himself, Ronan is never ambiguous: "It's going to be a great pirate epic trilogy." ”

Another reporter asked, "Will the director and Johnny Depp return?"

Ronan said again: "All the main creative staff of the crew will be back, including director Gore Wibinski, Johnny Depp, Christian Bale and Keira Knightley. ”

From the actors to the directors, all of them signed trilogy contracts, although the first part was a big hit, it was inevitable to give the main creative staff an appropriate salary increase, but it would definitely not be because of the salary issue, which would lead to the trouble of delaying the negotiation of improper cooperation.

In fact, continuing to star in "Pirates of the Caribbean" is also more beneficial than disadvantageous for the leading actors, after all, they can be said to have little money and lack fame.

Christian Bale is good to say that there is the Batman series next.

With a geek like Johnny Depp, it's not easy to find the right role.

If all goes well, Johnny Depp is bound to become a Caribbean superstar.

Caribbean superstars seem to be prone to some not-so-good associations.

After all, the superstar of a serialized movie is not a real superstar.

For example, in the "Star Wars" Iron Triangle that year, only Harrison Ford became a real superstar, and his popular movies can list a bunch of them.

On the other hand, Mark Farmel and Kelly Fisher, after the end of the "Star Wars" trilogy, were almost forgotten.

All three were red and purple that year, but Harrison Ford proved himself in other films, while Mark Farmel and Kelly Fisher only had Star Wars franchises.

What else did the latter two shoot besides Star Wars? I'm afraid veteran Star Wars fans can't tell.

Like Harrison Ford, the longer he is popular, the more money he will earn, and the more he will enjoy.
