readx;?cpa300_4; Justin? Bieber and Orlando? Bloom's battle has attracted a lot of attention in Hollywood, and in this busy awards season, it can be regarded as stealing a lot of limelight, especially by Orlando? Justin Bloom fat? Bieber, who then posted on his Twitter and Instant Share, posted a number of photos with Miranda? Kerr's intimate photos seem to want to stimulate the elf prince again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
As for whether the elven prince and the hobbit will fight the second round, that's not Duke's concern.
Gravity is about to start its fourth weekend in North America, and after weeks of dominance, the North American market is finally getting a blockbuster.
Co-produced by Walt Disney and Sky Studios, "Tron War" has officially landed in North American theaters.
This is also David? One of the four films Ellison took over.
"Tron" cost as much as $170 million to produce alone, but Walt Disney chose a relatively cold schedule, which can also be seen from the fact that their confidence in the film itself is not very strong.
Maybe it's because the North American market hasn't had a heavyweight commercial film released for too long, or maybe it's because the film really has an appetite for some audiences, although the outside world's expectations for the film "Tron War" are extremely low, the actual performance of the film is okay.
After all, "Gravity" has been released for four weeks, and it is an indisputable fact that the market has a certain degree of interest in commercial films.
In the three days of the opening weekend, "Tron War" won $44.02 million from North America with 3,566 theaters, ending the three consecutive box office titles of "Gravity" and becoming the new North American box office champion.
In the same time, "Gravity" collected another $22.35 million, ranking second on the weekend box office list, counting the previous four working days, the North American box office steadily crossed the $300 million mark, accumulating $311.24 million.
Although "Tron" snatched the North American box office title from "Gravity", the situation is not optimistic.
"The positive rating of the audience of the CISR cinema line is only 71%, and the average audience score is 'B'. Reporters from McRii's 55 media outlets gave an average score of 66. ”
In the car to the Hilton Beverly Hills, Tina? After Faye finished talking to Duke about the data, he then came to the conclusion, "The audience reputation of this film can only be regarded as average." The late-game trend is unlikely to be as strong as Gravity. ”
"Enough for David? Ellison breathed a sigh of relief. "Scarlett? Johnson shrugged, "I'm still waiting for this film to fail like Robin Hood, Larry?" Ellison divested from Sky Studios. ”
"You're in too much of a hurry." Duke withdrew his gaze from the car window and said to Scarlett, "Honey. We had plenty of time to be patient. ”
Hollywood today, with David? Ellison worked most closely with Walt Disney, but Walt Disney has been in a chaotic situation of internal power struggle. Eisner and Robert? Iger struggled for years without really deciding the winner, and once Larry? Ellison divests, David? Ellison's career in Hollywood was bound to collapse immediately.
This is exactly what Duke wants to see, a powerful Disney is not in his interests or the interests of Time Warner, and Disney is in the current situation, and it is not something he can create alone, media companies such as Kongscart, Viacom, Time Warner, and News Corp. Who hasn't contributed to the trouble?
Business competition never misses any opportunity to hit the opponent, and it can be said that these large companies are both cooperative and competitive.
The car stopped in front of the Hilton Hotel, Duke and Scarlett stepped out of the car, waved to the reporters and spectators around them, and walked down the red carpet, as usual, and the two quickly walked to the interview area.
This is the award ceremony of the 68th American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards, and it is also the largest media event in the entertainment industry before the Oscars, and the Golden Globe Awards will not affect the choice of many Oscar judges. It's a great opportunity to increase exposure, which is extremely important for people who want to make a difference during awards season.
And Duke has also received a series of nominations.
"Gravity" missed out on the Golden Globes due to its late release, but Duke's other film, "Inception," released last year, was nominated for multiple Golden Globes.
This film has a bumper harvest at the box office and word of mouth. It was nominated for five Golden Globe Awards: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actor in a Drama and Best Original Music.
In the interview area, Duke and Scarlett were interviewed by reporters, but the two never mentioned "Inception", which was nominated for five Golden Globe Awards, and the topic almost revolved around "Gravity".
Duke is well aware that promoting Scarlett is the main goal, and is it more like Scarlett in the interview? Johnson's foil.
"Every one of our scenes is choreographed. That's why I need to train so much, to make sure my body can adapt to the space environment. Everything was like a dance rehearsal, but I also had to improvise to capture the feeling of floating in a zero-gravity environment. ”
When asked by a reporter how to play such a wonderful role as a female astronaut, Scarlett said that the answer had been drawn up for a long time, "It's not easy, you need imagination, and all the preparation you make for the role can come in handy." There's no hope in that environment, including when I'm alone, and I think about what the director wants to show me to see to help me tell the story, and I ask the sound editor to play certain music to get me into character as quickly as possible. ”
Duke and Scarlett had just left the interview area and walked into the hotel, Natalie with her stomach holding up? Portman walked over, and her eyes naturally followed Scarlett? Johnson's back, the complexity that flashed in it, is also understood only by himself.
"Gravity" has grossed more than $300 million in North America and $600 million worldwide. Johnson became an A-list superstar in Hollywood, temporarily becoming the first actress born after 1980!
And this position was originally her dream.
Even if she can win the Oscar for Best Actress, can she still grab this position?
Natalie? Portman is not confident, she knows very well that superstars need more than just Oscars, how long has it been since she has proven her appeal in the market?
The Golden Globes are more of a happy party than an awards ceremony, the awards ceremony is held in the form of a dinner, Duke walked into the banquet hall with Scarlett in his arms, and soon found the table where the "Inception" crew was, Leonardo? DiCaprio was already sitting there, talking to John? Schwartzman had a wordless small talk.
"What are you talking about?"
After sitting down, Scarlett asked curiously, "It seems that there are different opinions?" ”
Duke looked at Leonardo first and then at John? Schwartzman, these two men are clearly arguing over something.
John? Schwartzman was the first to speak, "I just made a bet with Leo. ”
Leonardo continued his words and said, "I think Inception might win the best picture in the drama category, but John doesn't see it that way, he's more optimistic about David? Fincher's The Social Network. ”
"Honestly, Leo." Duke stood with John? Schwartzman, on his side, "I'm also more optimistic about David?" Fincher's film. ”
Compared with the Oscars, the Golden Globe Awards are more affected by public relations, and many Golden Globe judges even blatantly ask the filmmakers for some gifts or other conveniences.
"The Social Network?" Leonardo shook his head, "Then we'll wait for the result." ”
Maybe it's the relationship that shares the existence of the instant, Mark? Zuckerberg's website is far less popular than it once was, but it has also become one of the nation's most famous social networking sites. Finch's resume.
As we all know, David? Finch is a more alternative director, many of his works can be said to be contrary to the mainstream values of society, similar to Duke, he is not the kind of director that the academy likes, "The Social Network" is one of the few works in his work for the Oscars.
"The Social Network" and "The King's Speech" are considered to be the two hottest doors of this Oscar at the time. Finch and Duke are also considered to be the strongest contenders for best director at the time.
Duke is well aware, though, David? Finch will only pass by Oscar.
On the one hand, there is the deep-seated prejudice from the Academy, which is not interested in David? Finch's prejudice is definitely deeper than his; The second is David? Finch is not enthusiastic about participating in various public relations activities, and it is not enough for individual awards to rely solely on the public relations of the filmmaker, and today's Oscars, if not like Heath? Ledger is so special, and not being active in public relations means not winning awards.
This is a land that promotes free competition, and the college restricts the scope of public relations, but does not return, but considers public relations to be the embodiment of the will to free competition.
The awards ceremony quickly kicked off, and "Inception", which did not do any PR at the Golden Globes at all, unsurprisingly became a runner throughout the process, with five nominations for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Drama Actor and Best Original Music all failed, and none of them won awards.
Although he did well in Inception and Shutter Island, and was double-nominated, Leonardo? DiCaprio once again missed the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Drama category.
Fortunately, Leonardo has been running a lot over the years, and he has become accustomed to it and is very open.
He said to Duke, "I'm patient enough, and how can a Golden Globe satisfy me?" ”
Indeed, how could a Golden Globe satisfy Leonardo? DiCaprio?
However, Duke is well aware that, as with the results of the Golden Globes, Leonardo? DiCaprio also doesn't have much hope at this Oscars. (To be continued.) )
