Chapter 1077: The Ones in Front of Me Are Reluctant And And
Probably Hollywood's black commander is used to it, and on the working day after the release of "Vampire Hunter Lincoln", at the regular press conference of the White House, His Excellency the current commander also talked about the film and thought the movie was very exciting.
Just like the former commanders and parliamentarians talked about "House of Cards", they didn't care much about the spoofs of this kind of film.
"Lincoln the Vampire Slayer" has been quite solid in North America, and it continued to be the top box office player in its second weekend of release.
The film grossed $14.68 million the next weekend, beating the $11.38 million of "Cyber Killer," which was released in the first week.
Ten days after its release, the North American box office of "Vampire Slayer Lincoln" easily exceeded $50 million.
Overseas, the film has also received quite a good response, even surpassing North America, with dozens of markets released overseas one after another, and a total of $72.15 million was produced in ten days.
Compared to the film's total investment of $20 million, "Vampire Hunter Lincoln" can be called a box office hit.
Inspired by this, Uwe Bauer is full of enthusiasm and plans to start preparing Raiden Magister Franklin as soon as he finishes post-production of The Witcher Washington.
The series has already had a very good start, and if only two or three more films succeed, it will have a cascading effect.
Uwe Bauer no longer goes to be a licking dog for Blizzard Entertainment, stays away from "World of Warcraft", completely throws away the identity of a spare tire, and devotes all his energy to this series of movies.
I don't know if it's some kind of strange psychology, I haven't seen Uwe Bauer come to the door for half a year, and Blizzard Entertainment actually took the initiative to contact him and asked Brother Bao to go to Blizzard more if he had nothing to do.
In this world, many people and many things are often lost before they know how to cherish them.
It's a pity that Brother Bao doesn't have the time and energy to deal with Blizzard in a short period of time.
Because of the sentence "Humans will never be slaves", Ronan also took the time to watch "World of Warcraft", and the Lich King was just angry.
Awards season continues, and one of the amazing awards has announced the list of nominees.
On the list of nominees for the Golden Raspberry Awards, Brother Bao once again occupied multiple positions, and won the nominations for the worst director and the worst film with last year's "Life and Death Fight".
In addition, "Transformers" was also a big nominee, with Candace Swanepel nominated for Worst Actress, and Optimus Prime and Megatron each nominated for Worst Actor and Worst Supporting Actor.
As a super player in the Hollywood circle that produces commercial films, Relativity Entertainment can be called the super winner of every Golden Sour Plum Award in recent years.
What is surprising is that Relativity Entertainment has also been the super winner of the Oscars in recent years, and has won the Best Picture Golden Man for three consecutive years.
Relativity Entertainment's key award project this year is "Slumdog Millionaire", and the main target of the impact is still the best picture.
In terms of best director, Danny Boyle does not have the upper hand over the Coen brothers.
On top of the real Oscar Weather Vane Guild Awards, "Slumdog Millionaire" won the Best Picture Award from the Producers League, but the Best Director Award from the Directors Guild went to the Coen brothers.
The professional public relations team of Embassy Pictures has also conducted an analysis and believes that this year's Oscars may have a super cake situation.
Although the writers' strike continues, the awards season is still going on, especially at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and it is impossible to smash the Oscars because of the strike.
Entering late January, the Academy of Motion Pictures announced the list of Oscar nominees for this year.
Due to the writers' strike, the usual Oscar nomination luncheon was cancelled and replaced with a press conference with the list of nominees read out by Jessica Alba, who served as a guest.
Relativity Entertainment has three films nominated.
Pixar Studios' Ratatouille was nominated for Best Animated Feature.
With only three nominations for Best Animated Feature Film available, the Academy clearly didn't want the award to turn into a civil war for relativistic entertainment, with the other two nominations being taken up by "Surfing Penguins" and the politically charged "I Grew Up in Iran."
"Sunshine Girl" was nominated for Best Makeup, Best Original Screenplay, Best Actress and Best Cinematography.
"Slumdog Millionaire" became one of the big winners in the nomination list, taking home seven nominations for Best Score, Best Sound Editing, Best Editing, Best Cinematography, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Director and Best Picture.
Among all the nominated awards, the biggest grasp is the best animated feature film of "Ratatouille", and there is basically no suspense.
The award for "Sunshine Girl" is purely a matter of luck.
"Slumdog Millionaire" is first and foremost guaranteed the best picture.
With the announcement of the Oscar nominations, there is a fear that it is beginning to appear widely inside and outside the circle, affected by the screenwriters' strike, will this Oscars be held smoothly?
The Writers Guild has publicly stated that if the strike continues, all of its members will attend the Oscars and will not write lines or crosswords for the Oscars.
The time slowly dragged into February, there was no progress in the negotiations, and the patience of all parties was almost exhausted.
In particular, the film school can be described as anxious to get angry, acting as a middleman several times, wanting to promote an agreement between the screenwriters' union and the producers' alliance as soon as possible.
But when it comes to interests, it's not that simple.
From the strike to mid-February, Hollywood producers lost more than $300 million on their books, and all members of the Writers Guild lost $28 million in wages.
The vast majority of ordinary screenwriters in the Screenwriters' Guild can't hold on, and if it weren't for the Screenwriters' Guild to provide partial subsidies, many of them would have a problem even with their basic lives.
Life is not only poetry and distance, but also the reluctance in front of us.
If people don't have ideals, what is the difference between them and salted fish? But if they only see ideals, they can't even eat salted fish.
If the strike continues, many screenwriters really can't even eat hamburgers.
The voice of this person is gradually reflected within the screenwriters' union, although the voice of a single person is low, but many people are united and cannot be ignored.
Even, some people have begun to act in private and consider working again to make money.
Those famous screenwriters do have a greater voice, but without the support of extensive screenwriters, they simply cannot compete with the producer alliance.
Moreover, the producers have once again made some concessions.
Towards mid-February, negotiations between the Producers Union and the Writers Guild finally made progress, raising hopes that the strike would end soon.
But the upper echelons of the screenwriters' union still haven't given up that idea, and the screenwriters' union must at least get the treatment of the actors' union.
This is where the biggest disagreement between the two sides lies.
Screenwriters see themselves as key to film and television projects, but producers only see them as a secondary factor.
Due to various conditions, the Producers Alliance finally reached an agreement with the Writers Guild, but it was only a temporary agreement for three years.
The most important part of this tentative agreement is that the Writers Guild has increased its fixed share of films, series and reality shows.
For example, the income from various TV rights that the issuer previously enjoyed has risen from 1 percent to 1.2 percent of the global income.
The focus is also on the DVD and new media revenues demanded by the writers' union.
In the end, in the provisional agreement, the signed screenwriters of the Writers Guild will enjoy a 1% revenue share of the global revenue of the production and distributor.
That's a big step up from the 1.5 percent distributor revenue previously proposed by the Producers Alliance.
In addition, the producer will pay the screenwriter a total of $20,000 for the DVD script for each film that enters the DVD channel.
As for peripheral derivatives, as before, the Screenwriters' Guild does not have any rights and interests in sharing.
Subsequently, the Writers Guild held a membership vote and unanimously agreed to stop the protracted strike tug-of-war with an overwhelming 11,775 votes in favor, while only 283 votes were against.
In a society of various overdraft consumption, it is very rare for those ordinary screenwriters to last so long.
The signing of this three-year temporary agreement also means that the screenwriters' strike has come to an end.
The Writers Guild sent an email to each member urging everyone to get back to work immediately.
"The strike is over, and tomorrow, the writers will be in their places and everything will be back to normal. ”
The Writers' Guild also held a press conference: "The strike is not what we expect, we are just trying to get a reasonable commission on the income of new media dramas." What we've achieved now is enough to get us on our toes in this digital age. ”
The producers paid a certain benefit, and although the Writers Guild did not meet the initial demands, the result of the negotiations was already satisfactory to most people.
For decades, the nature of the work of screenwriters has not changed, that is, to pick up the pen to create, but the way and platform for the dissemination of their works are changing all the time, if 20 years ago, video tapes were a new rising force of communication, then now it is DVD and online new media.
It would be obviously impossible to refuse to change the way screenwriters are paid just because the way they work has not changed.
Including Ronan and Relativity Entertainment, Hollywood's producers are well aware of this.
"It's the best we've had in 30 years. Many screenwriters said this in interviews.
Although the screenwriters have gotten a share of the revenue from DVDs and online new media, the phrase "best treatment" is more like a long sigh of relief after a tug-of-war.
At best, this temporary three-year contract is a psychological floor price for both parties, and the Writers Guild cannot use it to change its relatively low position in the industrial chain, and the strength of the Producers' Union cannot change with the strike.
It is foreseeable that in the future, screenwriters will go on strike because of the benefits and status issues in the industrial chain.
Then again, labor conflicts can never be completely resolved, unless Hollywood's unions are all turned into good-looking mascots.
With the end of the strike, the first to benefit is the Oscars, and since the strike began last year, a series of awards ceremonies have been aborted due to strikes, and screenwriters have begun to prepare crosswords for the Oscars.
