At the beginning of 1997, Columbia Pictures began a large-scale promotional campaign for the ancient city of Thorn King, and the release date of the film was set for the end of April. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This was announced after Jurassic Park 2 was finalized, and it was in front of the other party.

It doesn't matter in the first place, there are so many Hollywood movies, and no one would think that this is a targeted act.

But when the trailer of the ancient city of Thorn King is released, your sister, what is this for, taking food from the tiger's mouth?

A lot of people know that Colombia is secretly making movies in Asia, but no one knows that they made something like this.

It's a xenomorph and a dinosaur, an island and an ancient castle, who is this for?

The appearance is too ugly, and people in the industry finally got a consensus, after Colombia fell into the hands of the Japanese, it became even more degenerate, the East Asian dwarf is not authentic, and the American father is unhappy......

However, if you are unhappy, you are not happy, this thing is really difficult to do, you release yours, I release mine, no one can have a monopoly on the surface, right?

Rescheduling? Are you kidding, you asked Spielberg to make way for someone else? Is Comrade Lao Si Hollywood NO.1 still mixed up?

The promotional video of the ancient city of Thorn King is very well cut, but it is just a promotional video, if the promotional film is not done well, then it is good to deceive people into the cinema to look amateurish.

Universal Pictures says they are not afraid of Columbia, and shoddy imitations are nothing to fear.

Colombia said that we are an original imported Japanese product, a comic adaptation, who imitated it.

Universal said again, or is it a manga adaptation, Japanese-style science fiction? These two words are not next to each other, okay, there is no science fiction if there is Japanese style, and there is no Japanese style if there is science fiction.

Colombia is speechless, well, there is some truth to what they say, but even if they are speechless, they have to scold each other.

Unreasonable has to say three points.

In fact, this is the hype of the two companies, although the subject matter is a little similar, but after all, it is different, in addition to a bit of science fiction, Jurassic is on the thriller side, and the ancient city is on the suspense side.

And Jurassic is a sequel, there is a vote of loyal fans, in fact, Universal Pictures is not afraid of this kind of competition, and the current arrangement of the two is not a hedge, the ancient city is more than 20 days ahead of almost a month, so when Jurassic is released, the momentum is basically the same.

Colombia has a chance ahead of it, and if it's put together with Jurassic, it's never a good idea.

Jurassic is the highest grossing film in global box office history, the first film to break a billion dollars, even if its sequel is made like shit, and some people are willing to pay for it.

After the two companies speculated with each other for a few months, the ancient city of Thorn King was released.

Many dinosaur fans who have been coaxed by the promotional video, or bewitched by the media hype, or just want to find fault, actually found out after watching the film...... Unexpectedly a little good-looking, isn't it?

The story structure is exquisitely arranged, the suspense is not too brain-burning, the science fiction also has a foothold, the thriller is more thrilling, interlocking but not losing the ups and downs, the before and after explanations are reasonable, and the story is well told.

Countless viewers who want to find fault have said a word that starts with F, and then think about whether to watch it again?

The right time gave birth to the right work of high quality, and the ancient city of the King of Thorns unexpectedly but reasonably fired.

The various film reviews (sponsored ones) of various professional film critics are actually mostly positive, and the flaws pointed out by the film are the ones that are not painful.

For example, the current level of shooting and post-production technology is still not good, and it would be nice if the film could be shot in ten years.

In Japan, due to Sony Entertainment, the ancient city was released at the same time as North America.

Sony Entertainment made a strong effort, and Hibiscus Club made a response, and the publicity momentum was also very strong, and the result was a box office result of about 7 billion yen.

The statistics after going offline show that the North American box office of the ancient city of Thorn King is 260 million US dollars, and the global box office almost did not exceed 600 million.

Colombia has finally made a lucrative deal.

Does this result have an impact on Jurassic 2? Yes, because the audience is indeed apportioned. In terms of marginal benefits, after watching the ancient city, many audiences do not have such a sufficient demand for Jurassic movies.

According to Miyahara Jing's comparison of the data in her memory, the latter's global box office should have dropped by 1 to 200 million, which can basically be said to be the influence of the ancient city.

As for the profit of the Hibiscus Society, it can only be said that it is not bad, after all, it can only receive a single share, and the key is that the Hibiscus Society has become famous again after being silent for a year and not doing anything.

The Ancient City of the King of Thorns? Did you secretly cooperate with Lao Mei? And the box office results are actually scary.

So taking advantage of the popularity of the movie, the Hibiscus Society was finally willing to release the collection of single-line volumes of the ancient city of the King of Thorns, and as a result, the six-volume collection sold about 300,000 sets...... Compared with the real ancient city comic sales, this result is already so good that it is against the sky.

This seems like a good sign......

However, for another anime, not at all.

The Bladeless Emperor of OHS Animation was released through Toho, and at first they found out that their current issue was scheduled for the summer, which was a good time, and they were quite happy.

Later, they found out that this was a good time for Mao, and the summer file was crowded.

Behind the small body of OHS, there is a prehistoric giant crocodile.

Ghibli opened its bloody jaws, and OHS shivered with fear.

After seeing that Princess Mononoke was released almost at the same time, OHS of course wanted to adjust the current issue, but this matter still has to be subject to Toho.

The other party said that it is not impossible to adjust the current date, but it can only postpone the screening, and this postponement may have to wait until next year.

OHS can't afford to wait like this, because the production cycle of animated films is quite long, and OHS has invested a huge amount of money in this work, so they are still relatively ...... about the release date of the film It is very urgent, because if they do not recover the funds in time, they may face the danger of breaking the capital chain.

So to bite the bullet, OHS picked up the bayonet at Miyazaki.

Everyone has a different theme, although they are all animations...... It's a great expectation.

On the Ghibli side, they didn't know that someone was about to slap them with a toothpick, so they waited for Princess Mononoke to be released.

In the first week, the Emperor of Blades was released, and the action scenes were simply magnificent, both the audience and the critics gave high praise to this work, and the superintendent Katsunao Asa was simply said to be a model for a new generation of supervision.

The Bladeless Emperor actually won 300 million yen at the box office in the first week, and OHS was immediately relieved.

Because of the huge investment, although this achievement will not make them a lot of money, it is still possible to have a surplus, at least not to lose the bottom.

However, they were relieved a little early.

In the second week, Princess Mononoke was released.

Hey, why are all the cheering voices gone?

The girl riding the white wolf and the boy riding the donkey together are simply devastating.

Animated films tend to have a more serious diversion, and Miyazaki's films have always been known for being suitable for all ages, and Princess Mononoke is a little bloody, but it is not as bloody as the Bladeless Emperor.

As a result, the Emperor of Bladeless applauded a week ago, and it was quite popular, after all, the quality of the film was there.

Then, it hit the streets.

It's a sad story.

The only ones who have been cheated are OHS.
