Chapter 421 Touring Propaganda (Try to have three chapters today, ask for subscription)
Tianwang Film and Television's acquisition of the TV station is still in secret, although there are some gossip about chasing the wind and shadows, but it has not attracted much attention.
Time passes day by day......
Early November......
Mid-November......
Late November......
The winter vacation schedule of the North American film market is gradually approaching, and the North American film market is gradually warming up......
The Chinese New Year stalls of the Huaxia Film Market have arrived early, and blockbusters are rotated......
Europe, Asia...... Films in major film markets have gradually entered a hot period......
However, this year seems to be different from previous years......
The Chinese film market in November has begun to enter the Chinese New Year, according to the experience of previous years, the film market will be extremely hot at this time, but this year is surprisingly calm.
Although Southeast Film and Television's "Plane No. 1", Huayi's "Hurricane Rescue" and some foreign films were vigorously publicized at this time, the market's response was very flat, so bland that many filmmakers panicked.
In North America, the response of the film market is also quite bad, although the film companies and theaters have used various tricks, but they can't seem to cause a strong reaction from fans.
The three blockbusters "The Expendables", "The Wind Listener" and "Gods" pushed their release dates forward to November in October to avoid "Avatar". However, when they were released one after another, they found out that it was not good, and fans seemed to be dismissive of these movies.
That's right, just dismissive!
Among them, "Gods" is a gimmick for making big special effects and 3D, although I dare not say that it surpasses "Lord of the Rings 2" and "Transformers 2", but it is no problem that the special effects can be compared, but now it is completely disdained by fans.
The three films were released one after another, and they all achieved decent box office results in the first week of release, but the subsequent box office has been declining at a rapid pace. The courtyard is cold. Fewer and fewer fans came to watch it.
And movie review sites such as IMBD and Rotten Tomatoes also have few feedback, although the score is not low, and the film is okay, but it is difficult to attract the attention of other fans. It doesn't heat up at all.
This situation made the producers smile bitterly. They guessed the reason, and hurriedly postponed the release time in other regions around the world that have not yet been released. Pushed to after the release of "Avatar".
In addition to the three blockbusters "The Expendables", "The Wind Listener", and "Gods", other more literary movies have a little better response than these action special effects blockbusters, and there are even two funny and literary movies that surpass these three action special effects blockbusters at the box office.
This is true in China, and this is true in North America. The same is true in the European Union, and the rest of the world is still the same, where action special effects films have a lackluster response, but instead let those funny, literary films have the upper hand.
Many people guessed the reason and smiled bitterly.
"Avatar" is really harmful!
And in the hearts of fans, a bird has faded out at this time.
"It's all because of "Avatar", which makes me have no taste when I watch movies."
"It's been a boring month. I went to the cinema and saw it, and I was defeated......"
""Avatar" is still 23 days before it will be released, it's too pitiful!!"
"Let's wait......"
"I don't know how much IMAX's movie ticket costs?"
"$8 for 2D, $15 for 3D, IMAX I guess it's $20-25, right? But it doesn't matter what the price is. I'm going to see it. ”
Most of the world's movie fans sighed when they were close to the release of "Avatar", looking forward to the release of "Avatar", and watched the IAMX trailer, such as "The Expendables", "Listener of the Wind", "Gods" and everything looked like a clear soup with little water, and the food was tasteless.
――――――――――

"Is the one in front of the ritual a soul tree? Is it the connection channel of Pandora's god eva?? ”
"A great discovery! At the sacrificial ceremony, I seem to see the figure of the main character, Jack!! ”

In addition to the Internet, many entertainment media have also made relevant reports on this trailer.
After the fourth trailer came out, Tianwang Film and Television Company immediately announced the movie ticket price of IMAX, which is 20 US dollars/15 euros/150 yuan.
Then the creators of "Avatar" began to tour the world, Paris, Moscow, London, Rio, New York, Washington, Yenching, Tokyo, Sydney, Manila and ...... The most important cities in the world are visited.
On December 5, the "Avatar" No. 1 team entered Manila, and nearly 20,000 fans came to the meeting site to welcome their arrival.

"December 9 ......"
"December 11 ......"
……
"On December 19th, all the roving publicity teams of "Avatar" gathered together and came to the star-studded Hollywood for the last meeting. - The Hollywood Reporter.
Although it was tiring and hard for the people who participated in the tour to fly back and forth around the world, they were willing to eat because in the course of this tour promotion, they were baptized by the local media and their popularity soared.
On the evening of December 19th, all the publicity was over, and everyone returned to the villa that had been rented a long time ago, and a group of people laughed and laughed and directly engaged in a barbecue and beer dinner to celebrate the movie and celebrate themselves.
"Hey, I really wish I would go to the cinema on the 23rd." Robert Downey Jr. lay on the ground without any scruples with a beer, looking up at the sky and thinking a little embarrassed, and next to him was Liu Tianwang. After a year and a half of getting along, the two can be regarded as good friends.
"Hehe, if you go, you will definitely be overwhelmed by the fans." Liu Tianwang said with a smile. Robert Downey Jr. is now a Hollywood A-lister, and many fans can recognize him in Hollywood.
"That's why I'm very helpless, maybe this is the helplessness of actors, I can't enjoy the passion of ordinary fans watching movies together."
Liu Tianwang sat up and said with a wicked smile: "That's you, I can go and see it, as long as I put on a little makeup, no one will be able to recognize me." ”
Robert Jr.: "......" I'll go!! Didn't expect this!! Liu Dehua can indeed do it, because his popularity in North America is not as high as Robert Jr.
"I'm going!! Otherwise, it's too unpleasant!! ”
"I'll go too!!"
"Honestly, 3D can be missed, but IAMX definitely can't be missed!!"
"I'd like to experience IMAX too!!"
After the topic of the two came out, other actors also made a noise and said that they would go to the cinema to watch it.
"Don't argue, let me ask you, can you get a ticket??" The oldest actor, the general, played by Stephen. Lang said a word, and the scene was silent.
yes, I don't have any tickets, look at the.
"We've got to figure out how to do it."
"I think I can find the boss, he's the owner of the IAMX theater!"
"I think I already have this!"
