November 25th is Thanksgiving, and a month later, Christmas, the joyous holiday brings problems to the crew of "I Am Legend", because the streets will soon start to be decorated with Christmas decorations, lights, Christmas trees, garlands, etc., and the dark hunter is no more than Christmas.

It stands to reason that the crew should hurry up and finish all the location tasks, the problem is that everyone needs to take a holiday during the holidays, and no one wants "Planes, Trains and Cars" to be released for real; and Wang Yang has to finish "The Dead" in a hurry, and the filming venue is not in the studio, so the crew has to continue the normal rhythm, fortunately "I Am Legend" The exterior is almost complete, and it is expected that the street footage will be completed before the Christmas decorations are everywhere, otherwise we will have to wait for the people to finish Christmas and New Year before we can spend a lot of time removing the decorations before shooting.

Santa Claus can only get the middle finger when he comes, and the public resentment in New York is getting bigger and bigger just because of the blockade and filming, especially the residents of Greenwich Village, the main filming location, if "I Am Legend" is not announced to be completed in mid-January next year, they will have to demonstrate.

On the first Thanksgiving Day of her life, Keke and her family gathered together to celebrate the holiday, and she was naturally the most shining little princess in the audience, but instead of wearing a princess laurel tiara, she was a colorful feather tiara in Indiana style.

Keke saw a turkey meal for the first time, although her staple food is now milk powder, vegetables and other baby-specific dishes, and she has also eaten several pieces of turkey meat. Everyone is very happy, with a child sitting at the table with his feet shaking his feet, Wang Yang cut the fat turkey, he feels very felt, he can't help but look forward to the upcoming Christmas, New Year's Day and Spring Festival, the more festivals are good!

"We were shooting in a real morgue and it was a weird feeling. The overall assessment was warm and happy, but in fact it was full of shouting and shouting at the dinner table, and Joshua was talking about the production of "Dead and Blind" and talking about the real morgue with great interest, which Keke didn't understand anyway. Jessica said coldly, "I'm feeling weird right now, too. Wang Yang nodded at the same time: "This is a good publicity stunt." ”

Several elders also felt that it was not interesting, and no one accosted them. "Don't talk about work!" Jessica was about to continue telling Keke's interesting facts, and Joshua said calmly, "It's not work, it's sharing." Wang Yang was about to say something, but Jessica glared at him and continued to say coldly: "It's not a good topic." She suddenly called "HOHO!" again, only to see Keke feed Danny a green vegetable to eat, her little face was full of sweet smiles, and when she heard her mother's voice, she quickly stuffed the rest into her mouth. ……

When November 24-30 passed, "Happy Feet" won the box office with 41.73 million in the second week of release, which was a small upset, which was completely caused by the messing up of the 75 million cost new film "Time and Space Clue" starring Denzel Washington, it only had a 55% freshness, and the box office was 24.98 million this week;

Warner Bros. has already screwed up two businesses with Darren Aronofsky, with "The Fountain" not selling well (PD35 million, 9-day box office 6.45 million) and only 51%/26% Rotten Tomatoes freshness, and a wave of mainstream media criticism has cut off its hopes of hitting the awards season, despite Darren having been nominated for a Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival.

It's the end of another year, and like the summer vacation, this December's film market is not as full of excitement and topics as last year, neither "The Chronicles of Narnia", "Harry Potter", "King Kong"-like special effects blockbusters, nor controversial films like "Brokeback Mountain".

"The Nativity of Christ" (PD35 million), which will be released on December 1, has a chance to become the focus of controversy, and this week's new films include "Deadly Magic" with a production cost of 40 million, "Nightmare in the Jungle" with 10 million yuan, and "King of Repetition 2", and on the 8th, Mel Gibson's action-adventure film "Apocalypse" (PD40 million), Nancy Meyers' romantic comedy "Love Holiday" (PD85 million), and Martin Scorsese's "Blood Diamond" (PD100 million) will appear.

The 100 million cost fantasy film "Dragon Knight" is the special effects blockbuster at the top of Christmas today, and it will be released on the 15th, and the 85 million cost remake of the family comedy "Charlotte's Web" is pinned on by Paramount, and the performance of the cute little pig will not be revealed until the 15th.

This year has the same characteristics as last year, which makes the theater owners very relieved, and they don't have to worry about the cinema being deserted, because there is a magical young! And it's two! In the week of the 15th-21st, the much-anticipated David Fincher-directed biographical feature film "The Amazing Director" (PD50 million) will be released on the 20th! With the trailer widely acclaimed and the advance tickets very hot, no one doubts whether it can sell out, no one doubts the popularity of the idol director, everyone is guessing how much box office is 100 million? 150 million?

And on the 22nd of the new week, Wang Yang's new work "The Dead" landed on the big screen! Everyone understands what that means, in this day and age, every magical movie release is a carnival festival.

Since everyone is aiming at the days of Christmas, there will always be a head-on collision, and "The Dead" is not a comedy, so the 120 million-cost family adventure comedy "Wonderful Night at the Museum" is proudly set for the 22nd, in addition to Stallone's "Rocky 6: Boxer Forever" (20th, PD24 million), "We Are Marshall", and Robert De Niro's thriller drama "Shepherd" (22nd, PD85 million).

If there is any opponent in "Infernal Affairs", the most suitable one is Universal Pictures' "The-Good-Shepherd" (literal translation of Shepherd), the two films are definitely head-on!

"Shepherd" brings the story of Edward Wilson, one of the founders of the CIA, to the screen, and strives to present the audience with a real, three-dimensional hero. This is the second film in De Niro's directing career, the last time "The Bronx Story" was released was on October 1, 1993, it received 17.28 million box office that year, and now the Rotten Tomatoes index is 96%/100%/88%, and the Metacritic network has 80 points, and "Shepherd" starring Mada Temon and Angelina Jolie, these two big names make its cast not low, plus the universal has a strong promotion for it, what kind of battle will this be?

When aiming at the New Year's Eve week from December 29th to January 4th, there is no new film worth mentioning, and the R-rated horror film "Desperate Christmas Eve" on Christmas on the 25th is not optimistic; Alfonso Cuarón's new sci-fi work "Children of Men" has a production cost of as high as 76 million, but due to its poor performance in overseas markets, it has only 26.85 million box office since it was released on September 22.

In fact, the overseas evaluation of "Children of Men" is very good, and the media and fans are applauding, why is the box office so miserable? This is the disadvantage of not having a cast, although Alfonso Cuarón is the director of "Harry Potter 3", but who knows who the director of "Ha 1", "Ha 2", and "Ha 4" is...... Their acting skills are great, but among the three old guys, which one has box office appeal?

You must know that the nature of the sci-fi blockbuster of "Children of Men" is different from that of a small-budget independent film like "Little Sunshine Beauty", and the audience's impression of it is completely different;

However, this winter will still be starry, and there will be no shortage of big stars, just in terms of actors: Hugh Jackman, Christopher Bale, Jude Law, Jack Black, Leonardo DiCaprio, Heath Ledger, Michael Pitt, Jack Nicholson, Ben Stiller, Sylvester Stallone, Matt Damon, Scarlett Johansson, Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Julia Roberts, Dakota Fanning, Keira Knightley, Natalie Portman, Angelina Jolie......

Who will be smiling at the box office charts and major award ceremonies?

The low-budget "The Magician" has become a great example of independent cinema, and now it's the turn of the mid-budget "Deadly Magic" to hit 2,879 North American theaters.

"Absorbed" the shortcomings of Bowei's distribution, Wang Yang solemnly instructed the distribution department to highlight the magic selling point of "The-Prestige" (literally translated as fame), "The Magician" The success of The-Illusionist is inseparable from the title, if it weren't for the adaptation of the fantasy book of the same name, Flame would definitely change The-Prestige, but in other aspects, whether it is the poster cover or the trailer, Flame focuses on promoting magic and a unique timing, and of course does not forget the biggest attraction of shouting "suspense".

The content and narrative structure of "Deadly Magic" are destined to not be a mainstream mass movie, and the key to doing well at the box office is how to tap its potential to the extreme and attract like-minded audiences who are interested in it to the greatest extent possible, just like the release of "Memory Fragments" and "The Magician".

What kind of performance will this film have? What will Christopher Nolan, the scheduled director of "The Dark Knight", who has been repeatedly supported by Wang Yang, receive? Will Scarlett Johansson, who had just suffered the fiasco of "Black Dahlia", stage a big reversal in performance in '06? Can Flame Movies continue to maintain the super miracle of undefeated box office? Warner Bros. and other film companies, media, fans, and parties ...... All are watching.

On this day, audiences who love suspense movies poured into the theater, and "Deadly Magic" was released!
