However, Mark's "No Country for Old Men" is always surprising, the box office of large-scale releases is surprisingly low, and the second week it is generally believed that it should have a 30% drop, Bi Jing and they withdrew 200 theaters, who knows that his box office is still the same, not only did not fall, but rose by several million.
200 theaters have been cut, but the box office has risen, this is the situation of Shenma Shenma? Could it be that MM box office fraud, it's really a laughing.
It turned out to be a real laughing shitman.
According to MM's marketing manager, "The box office uptick is due to the return of Mark's fans, who want to see how bad Mark's film is, and the results do not disappoint." ”
As for next year's Oscars, it is a question whether it can be held, but for the film company, the film has been filmed, so let's follow the standard process of bidding for the Olympics first.
Many are optimistic that the Oscars will give in to the Producers' Union, and without the most watched entertainment event of the year, Hollywood will lose a lot of color, and if the Oscars can't bring the Producers' Guild to their knees, it will be next year's May TV talent season.
However, it is estimated that this strike may last longer than the last five months of the Writers Guild's last strike, which will naturally put financial pressure on some screenwriters with low incomes, and will also hit their patience. This happened in 2001 during the strike between the Actors Guild and the Producers Guild, which lasted for five months, and some of the young actors affiliated with the Guild were unable to work and suffered heavy losses, and some even went bankrupt.
Therefore, the screenwriters' union was suspicious of low-income members this time, and when the strike began, a number of staff members were sent to take turns to stand guard at the door of large companies such as Disney, MM, and Warner, "9 to 5", to ensure that every union member went on strike as required.
According to the rules of the Writers' Guild, if its members continue to work during the strike or enter the strike site, they will not only be punished with heavy fines, but also have their membership revoked. In order to protect their professional interests, the members of the Screenwriters' Guild are reluctant to leave the Screenwriters Guild family.
However, the management represented by the producer is not easy to mess with, and three major TV stations have issued default notices to the heads of their own dramas that have ceased to work, hoping that those who are both screenwriters and producers can continue to produce work other than scripts, otherwise the producer's salary will be suspended.
The move meant that the TV stations were starting to harden their attitudes, with some of the major film studios sending out the first letters of termination of their contracts, terminating dozens of long-term contracts with TV production companies because they no longer had scripts to make.
The more this is the case, the more the screenwriters union thinks that the other party is about to be unable to hold on, but at this time, a piece of news happened that made them angry and furious.
A Golden Globe spokesperson claimed: "Nearly 100 stars from MM and Warner will attend the Golden Globe Awards!"
Among them, there are superstars such as David Lee, Downey, and Heath, as well as traffic superstars such as Christine Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Mason Lively, and Megan Fox.
The message was then certified by MM and Warner.
