Chapter 35: Push it all off
In fact, it's no wonder that Ryan doesn't know anything about the situation in "Home Alone", you know, for the filming of "Terminator 2", he didn't even attend the premiere before Thanksgiving, and he attracted Carter? Eisner and James? Cameron had a good war of words.
When he learned that the box office was as high as $18 million on the opening day, he was completely relieved and left the film behind.
Besides, despite the success of the film at the box office, the critics were merciless in criticizing him, believing that the movie was indeed a wonderful and funny all-age movie, but he, the screenwriter, lost the sharpness of "The Sixth Sense", and the new work not only lacks humanistic care, but also does not bring people anything worth thinking about, and the bridges in it are just funny for the sake of being funny.
Moreover, as the leading actor, his acting skills are not even half of "The Sixth Sense".
Come on! You also know that this is a funny movie for all ages, isn't this kind of movie just to make everyone happy during the holidays? Ponder? Humanistic care? What's that!
Ryan really wants to find a place to confront these film critics who are full of food and have nothing to do, what is there to comment on movies like "Home Alone"? Even first-graders know that is it possible for one child to defeat two adult thieves? It's a shame that they dare to be cheeky and shout.
And those tabloids, in order to stimulate people's eyes, for the sake of sales, push his image infinitely to a monster, and the article that suspects him of having a gunman has never been broken.
Of course, not many people will believe this kind of news, after all, as long as it is clear to anyone who is not a fool, that an orphan with no money and no power can have such a successful gunman or creative team? No kidding, do you really think everyone is the Zenith star with his head in the water in his work?
Even if it's not for one's own beauty haode heart, but also for the sake of the eyes, right? Since the day after his premiere, Ryan has voluntarily stayed away from newspapers and magazines, anyway, he can write scripts for entertainment, and he can play guitar and compose music for fun.
"Jamie, you take Ryan to meet those reporters and send them away." James? Cameron looked at the crew spokesman, completely unaware of pushing the boy into the fire pit.
"Hey, Jim, you can't do that." Naturally, Ryan protested.
"I'm the director and producer, and I have the final say in everything on the crew, now! Right away! Go for a live press conference if you don't want to NG thirty times per shot next! "After the threat is over, it is naturally a temptation, "Ryan, as long as you send those nasty guys away, I promise to give you three days off at Christmas." ”
"Three days off? Seems to be pretty good. Ryan followed the crew's spokesperson and a few assistants to the outside of the set, but didn't notice that the people around him were almost holding back their laughter.
Finally, when he walked out of the set, he woke up to the fact that Christmas was supposed to have a three-day holiday!
"Quiet! Be quiet! You're so messy, we can't hear anything! ”
After seeing someone from the crew come out, the flies became louder and Jamie had to shout loudly.
Seeing that the main owner was on the other side, these guys finally quieted down, and the people scattered in other places also gathered, Ryan glanced at it roughly, there were dozens of reporters.
"Ryan, is this your look in Terminator 2?" Ryan's temperament and expression are very different from those in "The Sixth Sense" and "Home Alone", and if it weren't for that somewhat familiar face, they both suspected that it was someone else.
"No wonder some film critics say what he acts like!" A reporter muttered to his companion in a low voice.
Ryan smiled slyly, "Looks like you're here for Terminator 2?" ”
"Cunning imp!" The reporter muttered, quickly shook his head, and asked, "Home Alone has already exceeded $150 million at the box office, and there is still a long time before it is released, do you think he can surpass "The Sixth Sense"?" ”
"I'm sorry, but that's a question for the whole of America."
"Some film critics said that your acting skills have regressed a lot, and there is nothing else in the house of a ghost except to be funny and cute, what do you think?"
"Please! Home Alone is a funny movie, okay, I'm not funny in it, do I have to be as gloomy and lonely as in the sixth sense? Ryan gave him a straight look that you're a fool.
"It's said that there are many studios who have taken a fancy to other stories in Ryan's Tales and want to buy them at a high price, is it true?"
"Sorry, I didn't receive any offers or offers."
"Ryan, remember me? Am I Mick from the Entertainment section of the Los Angeles Times? Taylor. A reporter finally squeezed into the front row, Ryan looked at it, it was a little familiar, and then he remembered, once with him and Harvey? The journalist with whom Weinstein had some contacts.
"Hello, Mick, long time no see."
"According to the information I have received, Universal Pictures has made an offer to your agent to buy the film adaptation rights of "Jurassic Park", can you reveal that?"
Ryan shrugged, "I don't know, Pat only comes to see me once a week on Fridays, and that's when I get the news." ”
"Are you interested in selling?" Mick? Taylor asked.
"Well...... Ryan dragged out a long note, "it's a secret!" ”
After all, the other party was friends with him, and he had never attacked him, the boy hooked his finger and whispered when Mick came over, "Of course it depends on the conditions!" ”
The questions that follow have long exceeded the scope of Home Alone, asking about everything, what is the next episode of Harry Potter written, and what is there after Terminator 2......
The most desperate thing is that someone asked Nicole for news, saying that she would find an adoptive father for him?
"I say it again, Nicole? Miss Kidman is my older sister! Ryan gritted his teeth and emphasized, and there were ten million voices in his heart telling him that he must not let such a ridiculous thing be held on the head by these guys.
"Ryan, do you have a girlfriend, have you ever dated a girl?"
Ryan only glanced at the paparazzi's dog tags, and with the support of several assistants, he turned around and returned to the set.
Everyone in the room glared at the paparazzi, Ryan? Jenkins has been the hottest topic lately, and he's finally willing to stand up and answer the question, but you idiot has provoked him away with such a stupid question, making it clear that you want to be the public enemy of everyone.
"What do you think I'm doing that? The public has the right to know. The paparazzi was still indignant.
"Idiot! Won't you leave this kind of question until zuihou to ask again? ”
Anyway, after this messy interview, although there are still many people around the crew, it is a lot quieter, besides, whether it is a reporter or a paparazzi, under normal circumstances, they will maintain a tacit understanding with the film crew, and when the crew starts filming, they must be quiet, otherwise they will become the public enemy of all Hollywood film companies.
"Ryan, this is an invitation to two films."
Closing the door of the trailer, Kingsley first handed over two invitations, Ryan just glanced at it, "Little Confused Big Dad" and "Invincible Little Trickster", he had never heard of it, and said without hesitation, "What kind of movie is this?" Push it. ”
"And this, the advertising contract."
Ryan didn't even connect, "You just said I'd listen." ”
"Children's cough syrup, Pizza Hut pizza, and an endorsement invitation from Espre."
"I'm new to that, don't you think? Also What is Aspry? ”
"Children's cough syrup is not necessary and Pizza Hut can consider. Aspri wants you to be their children's clothing spokesperson. ”
"What about your proposal?" Ryan looked at the agent.
"Don't promise any for the time being, wait for the box office of the ghost to exceed 200 million." Through two films, Kingsley has recognized the potential beyond boys' writing.
"Nope." Ryan shook his finger, "Wait for the Academy to announce the list of Oscar nominees." ”
"Are you so confident?" Naturally Kinsley understood what he meant, after all, she and Harvey? Weinstein is doing his best to do that.
"I have faith in you and Harvey, and of course, more in Sixth Sense." Ryan smiled brightly, "I don't think it's surprising that Nicole and I will each get a nomination." ”
Since this film in the previous life can be nominated for several Oscars, weishenme can't now, not to mention, this one is not inferior to the one in the previous life, and even slightly better in some aspects, the only problem is that the pace is a little slow, but for the judges of the Oscars, will this be a problem?
Which of those literary films is not slow-paced to death, and the people who watch it are drowsy, the old men at the core of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences have always loved this mouthful, even if "The Sixth Sense" is a thriller, but the family, affection, communication between people, etc., all of which do not conform to the mainstream values of the United States.
Besides, this is a thriller ethics film, not a science fiction film.
"Is the matter of buying adaptation rights also delayed?" Kinsley asked.
"Pat, there are a lot of works that are not suitable for the current adaptation, and the special effects of the movie and the post-production jishu are a big problem." Ryan tapped his fingers, "What conditions did Universal offer?" ”
"You can be the screenwriter yourself, two million dollars plus two percent of the North American box office."
"Pushed."
Although I don't know how much money the one sold in the previous life, Ryan refused without thinking about it, this is a big gold mine after all, "Pat, before 92 years, no matter who it is, all of them will be pushed away." ”
How to maximize benefits and unite his team is a problem he has always considered, if he just wants to be a rich man, he can write the Harry Potter series, and then eat and wait for death.
But this life is not the previous life after all, the previous life was muddy for half a lifetime, and he ended up alone in Zuihou, since he came to Hollywood in this life, then he will leave his own star in the most conspicuous position on the Avenue of Fame.
