After spending its first weekend in North America, "Fury Road" ushered in its first working day, with a 53% drop in the box office on Monday compared to yesterday, earning $11.34 million, while "The Adventures of Tintin", which is a PG-rated film, fell a little lower, but the box office was not high, and it only earned $2.65 million in one day on Monday. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The two sides are not an equal magnitude existence at all.

Even the most optimistic market forecasters would not have thought that "The Adventures of Tintin" would have grossed more than $100 million in North America.

"Don't say $100 million."

On the plane, Tina? Faye vs. Scarlett? "More than $50 million is very, very hard. ”

Scarlett rubbed her chin and muttered, "I don't know where to meet David?" Ellison, the person I want to see most right now is him. ”

Duke looked at the two women, but said nothing.

A film like "The Adventures of Tintin" must have a production cost of more than $100 million, and the publicity cost is almost the same as the production cost. Ellison had a hard time recovering his costs.

David? Ellison didn't like him, and he didn't like David either? Ellison, that's something Hollywood people know.

In the wake of the economic crisis, David? Ellison used his vast liquidity to win the favor of companies such as Paramount Pictures and DreamWorks, but he was destined to be an outsider in Hollywood who would be ostracized by traditional powers.

In fact, what Duke wants is very simple, will David? It's enough for Ellison to kick out of the circle.

The Ellisons have deep pockets, Larry? Ellison has a net worth no less than him on the cards, which does not mean that David? Ellison can mobilize these resources, and if he fails, Larry? Ellison will also lose patience, and if he messes up some big investments one after another, he will have to pull in family support and outside financing. It's going to be very difficult.

Losing Larry? Ellison's support, David? Ellison was just a hairless vulture.

David? Each of the four projects that Ellison took over had to invest a lot of money, even if he didn't have to take too much of his own money. It is possible to raise funds to invest, but if it fails, the consequences can still be quite serious.

Those who are far away can't be seen yet, and the recent "Adventures of Tintin" is very unoptimistic, for four working days, including Monday. This family-friendly movie only got a little more than $9 million at the box office, and although it pushed the North American box office past $20 million, it basically didn't have much competitiveness in the extremely fierce summer season.

In the same four working days, "Fury Road" received $42.68 million, and the North American box office easily crossed the $100 million threshold, reaching as much as $117.51 million.

At the same time, it collected nearly $70 million overseas, and the global box office exceeded $300 million.

A new weekend has arrived, and North America has ushered in an important Memorial Day schedule. "Alvin and the Chipmunks" also landed in North American theaters.

This is a PG-rated animated film that is very different from the audience of Fury Road, otherwise the distributor Twentieth Century Fox would not have released it on the second weekend of Fury Road.

Unlike "Fury Road," which won't take much of a hit, "The Adventures of Tintin" in that the same genre caused it to plummet the box office the following weekend, earning just $4.52 million in three days.

Not surprisingly, "Alvin and the Chipmunks" took the top spot at the North American box office this weekend, earning $48.8 million, followed by "Fury Road" behind the animated film. As expected, the R-rated film was unusually stable due to good audience word-of-mouth, and the North American box office fell just 42 percent the following weekend to $43.4 million.

Ten days of release. "Fury Road" grossed $160.91 million in North America and $412.06 million worldwide.

Excellent publicity, explosive audience word-of-mouth, plus Duke and Charlize? Theron and Tom? The huge appeal of the three Cruise people together created the big hit of this R-rated film.

Due to the crew's promotional journey divided into three parts, when Duke arrived in New York. Just where Charlize met? Theron and Tom? Cruise, the three of them also gave an exclusive interview to NBC TV together.

There is nothing special about this interview, just a part of the whole publicity plan, the only special thing is that Duke revealed that "Fury Road" will be serialized, and there may be a separate movie about Ferrosa in the future, and he will cooperate with DC Comics to launch a series of comics of "Fury Road", especially the high-profile rock warrior, and his origin will be detailed in the comics.

Of course, there are plans for new works.

"I already have ideas for new works."

Facing the camera lens, Duke said calmly, "It's still going to be a science fiction movie, and the theme is about dreams and how to use them!" ”

He divulged some content appropriately, and no matter how much the host asked, Duke was no longer willing to reveal more.

"Is it the sci-fi script you filed with the Writers Guild a long time ago?"

After removing the makeup, when you leave the dressing room, Tom? Cruise asked Duke, "How about me playing the lead role?" ”

Although long on Leonardo? DiCaprio mentioned the project, and Lee expressed interest, but Duke didn't directly reject Tom? Cruise, instead asked rhetorically, "Are you sure you have time?" ”

Tom? Cruise thought about it and had to shake his head, "I have to supervise the post-production of "Mission Impossible 4", and there is a new film to shoot, so I really don't have time." ”

Walking to the parking lot, he looked at his watch and said, "I'm going to catch a flight back to Los Angeles, so let's go first." ”

"Wait!" Duke called him to stop and let Tina? Faye took a large gift box from the car and handed it to Cruise, saying, "This is a gift for Suri, I'll go see her when I get back to Los Angeles." ”

"You're such a qualified godfather."

Result box, Tom? Cruise leaned over to Duke and asked, "Actually, I'd love to be a godfather too." ”

Can Duke understand Tom? Cruise meant, shrugged his shoulders, and said with a little helplessness, "This kind of thing can only be natural." ”

He and Scarlett didn't use contraception too much, but Miss Johnson never moved.

And Scarlett is only twenty-four years old, and Duke and her are not in a hurry.

Tom? Cruise's car hurried out of the parking lot, and when Duke was about to leave, Charlize ? Theron walked out of the elevator with her assistant, and instead of going to her car, she went to Duke's side.

"Something?" Duke asked, leaning against his Bentley.

"Nothing." Charlize? Theron took off his sunglasses, looked at Duke, and said, "Just wanted to tell you that don't forget to vote for me during awards season." ”

Duke frowned, "That's all?" ”

Actually, Charlize? Theron knew that even if she didn't say anything, with Duke's way of doing things, she would definitely vote for her, she shrugged her shoulders and said, "Didn't you tell me about your new film when you were in New Mexico?" Isn't there a female character in it who doesn't make many appearances? Leave it to me, okay? ”

"Leo is paid a lot...... Duke shook his head, "I can't afford to come up with another $20 million budget." ”

Although there have been no formal negotiations, he this director and Leonardo? DiCaprio must be a high salary plus share, and then add a Charlize? Theron, Warner Bros. must be crazy, and it will also squeeze his production budget.

Charlize today? Theron, absolutely has the confidence to shout out a salary of $20 million plus a share of the price.

"Isn't there very little in the scene?" Charlize smiled, "Just give me a symbolic salary, and I'll be a friendship performance." ”

Duke glanced at her and roughly understood what Charlize meant, she was returning the favor in this way.

"Okay...... "Duke" Duke didn't refuse, "I'll have someone talk to Nancy when the project is approved." ”

"I'll say hello to her in advance."

Charlize stared at Duke for a moment, then turned around, "Goodbye then, Duke." ”

After speaking, she no longer had any hesitation, nor did she have any nostalgia, and strode in her direction.

She knows very well that Duke is a person, some things are not earned if you want to earn, instead of being entangled, it is better to maintain a good relationship and a suitable distance to create a better future for yourself.

Tina? Faye has been silently looking at Charlize? Theron, who has been by Duke's side for so many years, has witnessed the changes in the relationship between these two people, and among all the women Duke has dated, she may not be the smartest, but she is the one who knows how to make trade-offs.

Correspondingly, she is also the one who can make Duke think of caring after it is over.

Looking at Charlize? Theron's tall back disappeared into the car, Dukla opened the door, got into the Bentley, and waited for Tina? After getting into the car from the other side, Fei said to the driver, "Go to Long Island." ”

He liked Charlize's character, and Duke would never deny it.

Of course, nowadays it's more like appreciation, and he wouldn't be stupid enough to think that Charlize? Theron's current status will still maintain the same relationship with him as before.

In fact, after ending his previous chaotic life, Duke didn't want to go back to the way he used to be.

The car pulled out of the parking lot, and Duke turned to ask Tina? Faye, "Did the script get to Leo?" ”

Tina? Faye immediately replied, "Leonardo is on vacation in Mallorca, Spain, and the script was handed over to his agent Ino?" Martin, he will fly to Spain to hand over to Leonardo. ”

Duke mentioned this project to Xiao Li a long time ago, and the other party was also very interested, and it was not a problem to take over, he was not too worried. (To be continued.) )
