Due to the good response in North America, "Batman: Time to War" has attracted the attention of many overseas fans early, and distribution and cinema companies in major overseas markets have also invested a lot of resources in this film. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Correspondingly, because of the failure of the North American box office and audience word-of-mouth, "Air Combat Heroes" has been blacklisted by overseas audiences and theater companies, and many companies continue to promote the release of the film in their own countries, more because of the contract with Disney Pictures.

"There are 95 overseas countries that have confirmed the introduction of "Batman: Time to War", while "Air Combat Heroes" has only 42 ......"

Looking at the data on the report, David? Ellison changed to a more comfortable sitting position, and his slightly puzzled eyes fell on Disney Studios' Cook? Dick, "Why is there such a big gap?" I remember a week ago, there were more than 60 countries that wanted to introduce Air Combat Heroes. ”

"No way." Cook? Dick's face was a little helpless, "There are more than a dozen overseas marketers who were originally negotiating, and after seeing the box office in the first week of North America, they directly withdrew from the negotiations, and some companies that have signed distribution contracts would rather default and pay liquidated damages than release "Air Combat Heroes". ”

Something to say, Cook? Dick didn't say it to his face, or did he give it to David? Ellison saved a little face, and those publishers who defaulted thought that it was definitely more cost-effective to pay a small amount of liquidated damages and lose than to invest resources in the release of "Air Combat Heroes".

David? Ellison's face is quite ugly, the less overseas markets the film enters, the lower the box office figure that can be earned, although he doesn't care much about that money, but it represents face, if the final global box office of "Air Combat Heroes" can't even catch up with the production cost. How will he face Duke in the future? Rosenberg?

Also, will the father take back the management of some of the funds? These are all things for him to consider.

Now, David? Ellison realized that the film industry was far more complicated than he had imagined, and he had thought he had a huge amount of money to back it up, and he had studied Hollywood in depth. Plus the highly qualified Michael? How could Ovitz and Walt Disney not be successful as collaborators?

As it turned out, he thought too simply, except for the Annie? Hathaway incident on Duke ? Rosenborg caused some trouble, he was beaten to the ground by the opponent, and he had no ability to parry.

Despite the reluctance in his heart, David? Ellison understood. The decline of "Air Combat Heroes" is irreversible, and if he wants to succeed, he can only start all over again.

But for a man of his temperament, it must be difficult to accept failure.

Before leaving Disney Studios, David? Ellison couldn't help but ask. "Cook, I remember that Batman: Time to War had formal contracts with more than eighty overseas marketers before May, why did we have so few ......"

He is not questioning Walt Disney's ability, but if "Air Combat Heroes" can have a broader channel. The final box office figures can also make him look a little better.

Cook? Dick sighed and said it very bluntly. "Who made Batman: Time to War the director Duke? What about Rosenborg. ”

Hear that, David? Ellison suddenly understood something, and when he got into his car, he couldn't help but smile helplessly.

Oh, yes. Who made the director Duke? What about Rosenborg? Who made the other party a super-big director with a global box office of nearly $9 billion? Who allowed the other party to build a great reputation in the past? Who made Duke? The name Rosenborg has already become a golden sign in Hollywood and even the world's commercial film industry?

Think about it another way, if he wasn't Duke? Rosenborg, in the beginning, would he still go to him and want to invest in his films?

The other party is indeed very strong, but as long as you learn from the experience, you can defeat him in the end!

Like Larry? Ellison the same, David? Ellison will not let a setback slump forever, let alone leave his chosen Hollywood.

It's just that the dismal box office numbers of "Air Combat Heroes" really make David? Ellison was somewhat speechless.

Not to mention the overseas market that will only enter on the weekend, starting from this Monday, "Air Combat Heroes" ushered in the test of the first working day, and the single-day box office of the film fell below seven figures without suspense, only a pitiful $620,000, which is only a fraction of the box office results achieved by "Batman: Time to War" that day, although the latter is also declining, it continues to maintain a relatively stable box office trend, earning $5.21 million in a single day.

Over the next three working days, "Heroes of Air Combat" was like a slide, sliding all the way down to $530,000 on Tuesday, $450,000 on Wednesday, and $410,000 on Thursday......

The film's box office in the same period was the same as Monday's, but it was a fraction of "Batman: Time to War."

Duke's blockbuster hit a steady and healthy decline, totaling $17.21 million in four working days, pushing the North American box office over the $150 million mark to $160.52 million!

Then, at the beginning of a new weekend, Duke left North America and traveled to London and Berlin with the main cast of the show to participate in the promotion of "Batman: Time to War" in Europe.

Compared with East Asia, which was deeply influenced by Japanese comics, Europe was more influenced by DC and Marvel Comics, Batman, like Superman and Spider-Man, is a superhero that everyone knows, and the previous "Batman: Time to War" was a big hit in North America, although the audience's reputation is not as good as Duke's previous Lord of the Rings trilogy, but it is also an excellent response, which has driven the film's overseas attendance.

Duke spent a day in Berlin for two promotional events, and then rushed to Munich to watch the first Bundesliga game of the Bundesliga team Bayern Munich at the newly completed Allianz Arena.

Of course, this must have been paid advertising, and even Duke's appearance in the stadium to watch the game, accompanied by Rummenigge, was also planned by Warner Germany.

For football, Duke doesn't know much about it, and most of the games he occasionally sees are also in the Premier League, and the current Bayern Munich team is also relatively unfamiliar, and the only star he can recognize is Ballack, which is also due to the fact that the other party later went to the Premier League.

"Duke, are you interested in working with Bayern on a football movie?"

Since Duke doesn't know German, Rummenigge speaks to him in English, "We've been planning to make a big football movie. ”

"I'm sorry, Carl." Duke politely declined, "I don't know much about football, so I'm not suitable for directing a film of this genre." ”

What he said is only one of the reasons, football is deservedly the number one sport in the world, and on a global scale, it completely beats sports such as American football and basketball, but football movies are out-and-out niche movies.

What's more, he really doesn't know much about English football.

Even if he wants to shoot sports-themed movies in the future, American football, which he once played, is undoubtedly more suitable.

Duke spent two days in Germany over the weekend, and on his last day went to Vienna for the premiere of "Batman: Time to Go to War" in Austria.

After a short weekend, the overseas promotion came to an end for the time being, and Duke left Europe to return to Los Angeles, as a more culturally similar overseas market, the success of "Batman: Time to War" in Europe is enough to be satisfactory.

$12.65 million in the UK for the opening weekend, $14.32 million for Germany, $10.35 million for France, $9.21 million for Spain and $8.55 million for Italy......

Although in the East Asian market, led by Japan and South Korea, "Batman: Time to War" received a certain cold reception, but in Australia, it also opened a good result of $11.78 million in the first weekend.

"Batman: Time to Go to War" was released in 77 countries and regions overseas, and this weekend received a total of $122.17 million!

and "Air Combat Heroes", which landed overseas at the same time, the overseas box office is still only a fraction of that of "Batman: Time to Go to War", which is not in tens of millions, but 2.17 million US dollars!

"Air Combat Heroes" was the first to be released in 41 countries and regions, and the box office figures achieved can only be said to be better than nothing.

Duke was also concerned about the situation of this competitor for the last time, and after seeing that it could be described as a complete failure, he threw it aside, and didn't even bother to watch the other party's second week box office in North America, because there was no need for that kind at all.

Even God himself could not save the film.

In North America, "Batman: Time to War" made it through its third weekend, and with no big-budget films released this week, "Batman: Time to War" topped the box office with $20.12 million, easily achieving three consecutive titles.

So far, the North American box office of "Batman: Time to War" has accumulated $180.64 million, and the global box office has added up to $302.81 million!

At this time, it is said that Batman has been reborn on the big screen, and I am afraid that no one will refute it.

However, the time of this film is coming to an end, Memorial Day is approaching, and a film that has become a cultural symbol in North America and the whole world is about to be released.

George? Lucas arrives with his Star Wars Prequel III: Revenge of the Sith.

And in the promotion of the film, George? Lucas made it clear that this will be the last installment of his Star Wars series, and in the understanding of Star Wars fans, this will naturally be the last of Star Wars.

The last Star Wars is self-evidently attractive to Star Wars fans, and even those who are not Star Wars fans are ready to say goodbye to this great series by watching it live. (To be continued~^~)
