It's a pity that due to the limited number of imported films, Chinese mainland is not included, and it will never be released in Chinese mainland.

In addition to Winfrey's participation in the production of zuò, he hopes to promote the box office through the awards of various film festivals or film festivals.

November 13 is "Weakness", which will be released in 3118 theaters, and the selling point is naturally based on a true story, and then Sandra. Bullock, the stupid big sister, after some consideration. Gavin. O'Connor ended up in Julia. Roberts and Sandra. Bullock chose Sandra among others. Bullock, that's right, Julia. Roberts is more globally known, but to this day. The erstwhile box office queen has lost his magic, and instead of paying millions of dollars more than a few million dollars more than a bargain, Gavin. O'Connor prefers to invest money in the system.

November 20 is "Twilight: New Moon", which will be released in 4027 theaters, since it is the "Twilight" series. Of course, the biggest selling point of the film will not be the investment, the cast, or anything, but the extraordinary appeal of the novel itself, and its target group will not be anything else, the millions of crazy female book fans.

December 4th is "Immortal", which will be released in 3,786 theaters, there is nothing to say, Lin Yuquan's latest masterpiece is the most selling point.

There are a total of nine films, among which "The Immortals" and "Twilight: New Moon" are undoubtedly the most watched new films in the same period, recognized as box office bombs.

"Weakness", "Black Valentine", "Fatal Bend 4", and "Babel Empire" all need to compete fiercely with new films in the same schedule, and "Weakness" faces the disaster blockbuster "2012" released at the same time and the second week of release. by Robert. "A Christmas Carol" directed by Zemeckis and starring Jim Carrey; "Black Valentine" is confronted with the story of Michael. Jackson's story documentary "Michael. Jackson: That's It" and horror films including "Saw 6"; "Fatal Bend 4" faces Taylor. Perry's comedy film "I Can Go Crazy Myself" written, directed and acted in; "Babel Empire" faces "Zombie Land".

As for "500 Days with Shamo", "The Moon", and "Cherish", all the three films have to do is to be themselves.

Summit Entertainment has become Hollywood's most successful studio this summer, and how far it can go in terms of the year depends on what kind of box office performance these nine films can achieve.

Let's talk about Shuguang Films, looking at the schedule of Shuguang Films this year, so far, only two films "Single Men and Women" and "Immediate Rescue" have been released and released, and then, there are six movies that will be released one after another.

The first to be released was "Ocean Paradise" on September 4. Li Lianjie, Wang Luodan, Jiang Wenli, Article, Gao Yuanyuan The cast is undoubtedly very large, with 48% of the film scheduled, and the main competitors are "Panting" and "Special Forces: The Rise of Cobra" starring Ge You.

On October 5th, "Tongtian Empire" is the golden period for the National Day file, which is becoming more and more popular year by year. The Dawning movie will naturally not let go, and it would be better if it was originally scheduled to be released on October 1, but this year's National Day file is really extraordinary, not only "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China", but also "The Wind".

Among them, "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" is scheduled to be released on September 18, if it is an ordinary film. The two-week buffer period is enough to ensure that the film is difficult to hinder the new film, but as a blockbuster film produced by China Film, gathered nearly 100 acting stars, and intended to present the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China" will maintain a high film schedule for a long time.

"The Wind" was released on October 1, not to mention that the direct head-on collision obviously damaged its own box office, you must know that as a movie produced by Huayi Brothers, "The Wind" is also half of its own movie.

In addition, "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" also has the investment of Dawning Films, instead of killing each other, retreating for a few days, and striving for a win-win situation is the king.

On October 28, "The Piano of Steel", as a literary film without big-name stars, the film was not released on a large scale at the beginning, but was released on a small scale first, gradually expanding the scale of screening with the help of word-of-mouth effect, and focusing on long-term screening.

On November 20, the cast of "Gentleman's Makeover", Sun Honglei, Gao Yuanyuan, and Fan Binbin is obviously still very attractive, and the most severe test is that the film will face the disaster masterpiece "2012" in the second week of release.

On December 4th, "Immortal", there is nothing to say, the Chinese film has received attention this year second only to the martial arts masterpiece of "Immediate Rescue", and it is destined to be the overlord of the same schedule.

On December 18th, "People in Embarrassment", just like Feng Xiaogang, Ning Hao's name has become the quality assurance of comedy movies, and his latest masterpiece has long been looked forward to by many fans and audiences.

Obviously, it was just a warm-up before, and whether Shuguang Films can continue to dominate the mainland film market again depends entirely on the performance in the second half of this year.

It's just that Dawning Films wants to beat China Film like last year, and it is extremely unlikely that it will become the box office champion of distribution, although "Immediate Rescue" has achieved an astonishing box office of 951 million, but it is obviously a big gap from last year's "Wild Story: Rise of the Ape Clan", and "The Expendables" and "Twilight: New Moon", the only two peak entertainment films released in the mainland, are all distributed by China Film.

This is only its own reasons, and then look at China Film, compared with previous years, the box office of Hollywood imported films such as "Transformers 2", "Ice Age 3", "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" has increased significantly, and at the same time, China Film also has "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China", "Nanjing! Nanking! ", "Mei Lanfang", "Thorn Tomb" and many other self-made films that have attracted much attention.

Of course, Shuguang Film doesn't care much about this, it is nothing if it exceeds the brilliant victory, but it is not exceeded, after all, China Film is not an ordinary film and television company, and it naturally has advantages that are difficult for private film and television companies to achieve.

At the same time, other companies have goals that need to be sprinted.

For Lin Yuquan, the so-called new stage is that he is finally going to shoot his first 3D movie, and so far, his leisure vacation has come to an end again, but he did not fly directly back to Los Angeles, but flew to Wacheng, Myanmar again. (To be continued.) )
