Chapter 383 Twisted Little Plum
Xiao Lizi watched Kevin leave, he didn't know that Kevin wouldn't give up easily, but he didn't expect to be so radical, he came to the pool in a depressed mood, and stretched out his hand to pull Raymond up.
Raymond swam to the other side, got up from the handrail, and said with a sad face, "I'm going to resign?"
Xiao Li Zi said: "Are you sure? You don't already know that this job is not easy to do, and not everyone can get a million annual salary." ”
Raymond said: "What are your plans? "Time to go to War" is not much worse than "The Aviator"?"
Xiao Li Zi said: "The more superheroes you shoot, the farther away from the little golden man." ”
Raymond said: "It's tantamount to offending Warner, is it worth it?"
Xiao Li Zi said: "Little gold medalists and supermodels are my favorites, how can you gain without paying, and what you have to do is to push off "Batman" for me, as for how to do it, that's your business." ”
Raymond only felt that he was not human inside and out.
Soon, there were rumors of the launch of the Warner superhero blockbuster "The Dark Knight" on TV entertainment news, and rumors that Xiao Li Zi would be absent, which disappointed many fans and fans as soon as the news came out.
Xiao Lizi was suspicious, saying that it was good to suppress it? How could it be nothing at all? But he soon knew.
Roger Ebert is a contemporary film critic, script writer, and Pulitzer Prize-winning film critic, Albert is best known for his weekly review column (published in the Chicago Sun-Zele since 1967 and later on the Internet) and co-hosted the television show Siskel and Albert Film Reviews with another film critic, Gene Siskeel, whose film reviews have been published in more than 200 newspapers in the United States and around the world, and he has authored more than 15 books, including his film yearbook.
Back in 1970, he became the first film critic to win the Pulitzer Prize, his television program was also broadcast around the world, and was nominated for an Emmy Award, in 1995, a section of Chicago's Erie Road near CBS was named "Siskel and Albert Street", last June, Albert received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and was the first film critic to receive the honor, Albert was named the most influential critic in the United States by Forbes magazine, he owns the University of Colorado, Honorary degrees from the National Film Institute and the Art Institute of Chicago.
As a film critic, Taishan Beidou, he commented on the acting skills of Xiao Li Ziyi's several movies so far in his TV show, such as he participated in the filming of "It's Better to Start Again" in Jiusan, partnered with Robert De Niro, and played a teenager who was abused by his stepfather, extremely depressed and painful in the film, and like the mentally handicapped Yani in "A Different Sky" that year, this role made him nominated for the 1994 Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor at a young age.
"Basketball Diary" created an image of a drug-addicted writer with a distinct personality, for which he was nominated for the Golden Globe Award, and was hailed as "the heir of Rivan Phoenix", in the modern passionate version of "Romeo and Juliet", he created a new image of "Romeo", Leonardo also won the Berlin Film Festival Best Actor Award for this film, Albert believes that it was the peak moment of Xiao Lizi's acting skills, and the role created is three-dimensional and expressive, which is very convincing, and "Titanic" After that, he went all the way downhill, began to develop into vases, acted in several movies that did not help his career, and his acting career went to a low point, but fortunately met Scorsese, "Gangs of New York" and "The Aviator" took him back to the ...... of acting.
Looking at the comments on the TV, Xiao Lizi is relieved, he has been looking for a way back to the top since the peak of "Titanic", and he personally hopes to play some profound roles and play some impressive and memorable movies, so he will lean towards Scorsese.
Leonardo, who was gradually on the right track in his acting career, actually made a mistake and took over the role of Bruce Wayne, and his previous efforts were ......in vain. Albert sighed with some tactfulness.
And Albert's partner Siskel said: "Maybe he is really short of money, Bi Jing can only be generous when he writes checks for commercial blockbusters, but it's a pity that another talented actor is like Nicholas who is in a slump, since he can rely on his face, why rely on other ......!"
Xiao Lizi finished reading this issue of "The Siskeel and Albert Show", and he thought that these two Ga's intentions were kind, and shouted in the air to get him back on track, which made him even more determined to stick to his own path.
However, another TV show made him angry, and the TV also said that it was a good thing that Xiao Li Zi did not accept "The Dark Knight", and he was turned into scum by several people with superb acting skills in "Time to War", Morgan Freeman, Michael Kane, and even the sweet and invincible Rachel also gave him great pressure, so he had no other good plan than the roaring and screaming performance of the bitter and hateful Bruce Wayne.
There are also many fragmentary clips cut on the TV, so that he can't seem to catch the pressure of the other party's acting, so he can only respond with a roaring or a gloomy face, and cleverly add the words "Roar as acting" .......
This show made Xiao Lizi angry, he wanted to rush to the TV station, tugged at the other party's clothes, and asked him sharply: "I have no acting skills! I have no acting skills! I have no acting skills!"
But doing this, it's really a joke, as a person who once broke through thousands of children in Hollywood with his strength, he was crowned the world's number one vase after "Titanic", which is not what he wanted, Bi Jing, the road to the vase is not long, his next few works, the box office and beer are not good, and his acting career is in danger, until he meets Scorsese, under his tutelage, he changed from a wild road to a methodist, and he also regained his self-confidence.
Now he is actually sprayed on TV that he doesn't accept "The Dark Knight" because he is pressed, his acting skills are not as good as people, and he will avoid it for fear of being turned into scum in seconds, if he is not as good as Morgan Freeman and Michael Kane, he admits it, there is still a gap between the two sides, but to say that he is not as good as Rachel McAdams, this is really disgusting, this is a big mistake, he wants to let such people know that I am not being pressed by McAdams, let alone roaring emperor .......
This is the idea that Mark gave Kevin, please don't as well be excited, as for how it works, that's Warner's business, they were the ones who planted a pole at the beginning, and it's normal to pay the price for it now, if you can't impress Xiao Lizi, it has nothing to do with him, this is not a movie invested by their group.
MM Group raised its box office forecast for North America this year, with $1.5 billion to $1.6 billion, which is 20 percent of last year's market share, ranking first.
In recent years, the best box office in North America was 9.45 billion US dollars in 2004, and the worst was 8.8 billion US dollars last year.
This is mainly due to the failure of several blockbusters in the summer, and this year is slightly better, with the super hit "Iron Man", the good "Da Vinci Code" and "X-Men", "Ice Age 2", "Outside the Fence", "Lianye Agent 3", this "Superman Returns" and "Poseidon" are huge losses, Warner, the biggest winner of the six last year, is completely likely to become the bottom this year, it will compete with Universal and Paramount to get rid of the sixth place, and MM, Disney, and Fox are competing for the first place.
When the summer knocked on the door of Hollywood again, the major production companies were inevitably a little trembling, and experienced the audience's appetite that was completely confused last year, and this summer's super blockbusters were walking on thin ice, but fortunately, superheroes such as "X-Men" and "Superman" have returned, and the "professional secret service" and "Pirates of the Caribbean" have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people There is also a new adventure plan, Leonardo da Vinci's famous painting plays with the code in the Louvre, the Miami sun is back in the wind, the luxurious Poseidon is shipwrecked again, the water banshee emerges from the pillow story, and DreamWorks, Disney and other animation masters have sacrificed their CGI one after another.
This summer vacation is still steaming! The children's films and light comedies flying all over the sky are dark horses, the sequels are still busy collecting money in the summer, the adaptations are full of eyes, horror/thriller do not forget to wave the flag, and what is more concerning is that August, which has always been peaceful in the past, has also begun to have the star of the Oscars because of the collapse of the "World Trade Center" and the fluttering of the "flag of the fathers"...
However, the most unsettling thing in the industry now is that the Poseidon hit the reef and Superman did not come to the box office, if "Pirates of the Caribbean" is like this again, this summer box office will be over.
However, this situation did not appear, and this week's box office champion "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Gathering Souls" actually earned $13,200 within three days of opening, ranking first with absolutely strong numbers.
"Pirates of the Caribbean 2" landed in a huge area of 4,133 theaters, and broke records in just three days after its release - first the box office results on the first day of the premiere, with a horror achievement of 55.5 million US dollars, beating last year's "Star Wars Prequel 3: Revenge of the Heath" that caused a stir last year, and then with a super record of 132 million US dollars in the opening weekend, "Spider-Man", which holds the record of 115 million US dollars, is far behind (due to "Star Wars Prequel 3" It was released on Thursday, so the first weekend of revenue ranked third in film history).
Not only that, but the average weekend revenue of $32,000 for a single theater is also a record, and the most spectacular achievement is that "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Coffin" exceeded the $100 million mark at the domestic box office on July 7 and July 8 alone, and of course, there is a set of data that cannot be ignored - "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" has an opening value of 132 million, which is nearly three times the $46 million of its predecessor "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl".
So far, there are three blockbusters this year, and they will exceed 100 million in three days, which is unprecedented, is this the market about to fully recover?
