Chapter 788: Naming Turmoil
Roger Albert's film review represents the general attitude of North American film critics towards "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Coffin".
is different from "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" in Charlotte's original world, which played a multi-line narrative and messed up, in this world, because of Charlotte's modifications, film critics and audiences have a good impression of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2".
And this is also a characteristic of multi-line narrative films-
As long as you play it well, the audience reputation of this kind of movie will always be good, and film critics are generally more tolerant of this kind of movie.
- Even if the film does not show the "humanity" that critics like the most.
I don't know the calendar!
- This is often the most common impression of multi-line narrative films.
Through many attempts, Charlotte successfully found a combination with the strongest picture expression, the strongest sense of plot rhythm, and the strongest emotional impact on the audience.
In this case, the audience will not only not be aware of the calendar, but even if they do, they will feel very powerful.
As many film critics said, the release version of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Soul Coffin" is a movie that the audience can immediately feel the director's power after watching it.
Even in this movie, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swan, as the heroes and heroines, are very eye-catching, and Johnny Depp's Captain Jack is even more amorous.
- That's right, that's the word!
- Captain Jack's unique charm of gay is basically for both men and women, so there is nothing wrong with the word "amorous".
But even with such a charismatic character, it still can't hide the strength of the director's skills.
In Charlotte's previous films, this is not obvious -
In addition to the earliest "Fatal Bend" and "Happy Death Day", what he is better at is actually creating one or several interesting characters first, and then mining the charm of the characters to the limit through various techniques.
And its strong narrative and control ability is more behind the charm of the character, which is silently expressed.
- The original "Guillotine Valley", "Hell Detective" and even "Sherlock Holmes" are all of this type.
However, in "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Soul Coffin", due to the difficulty of multi-line narrative, Charlotte's ability was finally fully expressed.
"This is a movie where Charlotte Booth pushes her abilities to the limit!"
- Like Roger Albert, Kenneth Turan, a famous film critic, commented.
And such a high evaluation from many film critics, as well as the box office that is still growing rapidly and the audience reputation is also not low, naturally makes the chairman of Disney Studios feel more and more that it is a good idea to immediately prepare for the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean 4".
Especially after "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" surpassed $300 million at the box office.
It was only the weekend of the second week of the film's release......
"If you don't respond to Disney Studios' offer to make Pirates of the Caribbean 4, I guess that "smiling Mickey Mouse" will soon come to your door again!"
In the president's office of Ghost Party Studios, Alexis said to Charlotte with a smile.
- After all, the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series is a collaborative project between Disney and the Ghost Party Studio, and now the second "Soul Coffin" is a big hit, and as a core employee of the studio, Miss Valkyrie is naturally happy.
In particular, the heroine of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series is her sister Jenny.
ββAgainst the backdrop of the box office results of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Coffin of the Soul" breaking $300 million in two weeks, Alexis feels that her sister Jenny may be able to sit firmly on the status of a Hollywood A-list actress as long as she casually proves herself in other movies.
In this case, how could she be unhappy when there was only such a relative left?
She said to Charlotte with a little excitement,
"According to Disney's people, the other side of the Pacific originally planned to ban the introduction of "promoting feudal superstition" because of the excessive number of thriller and fantasy elements in "Pirates of the Caribbean 2"ββ"
Speaking of which, Miss Valkyrie was a little indignant,
"What kind of reason is this!?Can't there be an element of fantasy in the movie??Didn't they introduce the scene where Kate Winslet didn't wear anything in "Titanic"!?
- Well, the reason for "feudal superstition" is indeed a bit of a nonsense in the eyes of Hollywood filmmakers.
However, Charlotte understands that this is just a statement of the big scissors' free mind.
Having said that, if the original "Titanic" was not because of the love of a certain elder......
In short, unlike the others, Charlotte was mentally prepared for the other side of the Pacific to refuse to introduce Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Coffin.
- After all, he didn't introduce it in his original time and space!
However, now listening to Alexis, things seem to have taken a turn for the better -
"Yes. β
Miss Valkyrie nodded in confirmation of Charlotte's guess,
"Maybe it's because of the popularity of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Soul Coffin" in North America, the people over there seem to be loosening. Butβ"
Alexis said with a wry smile,
They still felt that the subtitle of "Gathering Souls", especially the word "coffin" in it, was very bad, and strongly asked us to revise it - so, at the suggestion of the other party, Disney people chose the new subtitle of "Flying Dutchman". β
β...... So, Pirates of the Caribbean 2: The Flying Dutchman!?"
"Yes. β
Alexis nodded.
β......β
Charlotte feels that if "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" is really released on the other side of the Pacific under such a name, then the people of the Central Plains must be going to heaven.
After all, over there, even the typical American taste KFC has earned a reputation as "opening and sealing dishes......
Of course, Charlotte wouldn't give up on making "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: The Flying Dutchman" β well, that's the nameββ he wouldn't give up on letting the movie be released on the other side of the strait because of such a reason.
After all, that's real money!
Even at this time, the film market on the other side of the Pacific has not yet reached the time of a complete explosion.
At this time, the film market there is not large, coupled with the low share ratio......
But who is afraid of having a lot of money?
Moreover, you can also take the opportunity to occupy a position in advance, and wait until the other side of the strait gradually opens up the market because of the TO agreement......
- That's the number one customer of Hollywood in the future!
It may still be a little early, but Charlotte feels like it's time to start planning ahead......
