Chapter 243: We Are the Champions
Although she appeared as a boss, Charlotte didn't have many roles in the show.
He just came in with two golden apples and threw one of them to Depp. Then the two of them each dedicated the "golden apple" to their respective goddesses.
- Who is more beautiful than this kind of thing, at the level of Hollywood actresses, it is difficult to have a victory or defeat.
After all, everyone's basic level is good, and there are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people......
In fact, the reason why this issue of "Jay Renault's Tonight Show" has such a gimmick of "who is more beautiful" is just for publicity-
On the one hand, those viewers who know Winona Ryder but have not watched "Guillotine Valley" may be curious and want to see how beautiful "Katrina" is;
On the other hand, Winona, who has been resting for a long time because of a car accident, is also currently in need of exposure, and this gimmick can quickly remind everyone of her title of "Hollywood's most classical beauty".
- It's a win-win for Winona Ryder and the box office of "Guillotine Valley."
In particular, when the box office of "Guillotine Valley" was still at $20 million on the second Saturday of its release, Charlotte was even more sure of this.
"Your idea of asking Jay Leno to take a women's photo shoot is simply a stroke of genius, not only our box office trend has been lifted again, but even his talk show, the ratings of that episode have increased a lot!"
Andrew Kevin Walker excitedly waved the box office statistics report at Charlotte, but between his words revealed a fact-
The bad idea of promoting Jay Renault to a women's clothing boss was actually Charlotte's.
To be precise, it was Andrew who first proposed to let Depp, Winona and Charlize appear on "The Jay Renault Tonight Show".
He contacted NBC on behalf of Paramount and received a positive answer.
After that, Winona's agent had a whim, wanting to use the gimmick of Bimei to restore Winona's popularity lost due to hospitalization and recuperation for a year younger.
- After all, the previous promotion of "Guillotine Valley" also borrowed a lot of Winona and Depp's east wind, so Charlotte and Andrew did not object.
It's just that in this way, this issue of "Jay Leno Tonight's Show" can't follow the previous regular model.
Paramount discussed with the NBC production team for a long time before finalizing the plan.
As for making Jay Renault a women's clothing boss, it was completely Charlotte's whimsical outburst of bad taste.
Of course, in terms of results, both Jay Leno himself, NBC, and the producers of "Guillotine Valley" have all gotten the benefits they want from this episode.
So, from everyone's point of view, this incident has become another proof of Charlotte's creativity.
"At the moment, as of yesterday Saturday, we have accumulated $100.3 million at the box office, which has surpassed David Fincher's "Seven Deadly Sins" and is about to catch up with "Ghost Pony Elf". β
Andrew Walker continues to excitedly wave the box office statistics report,
"No, maybe it's caught up now, but the box office hasn't been counted yet. Now, there are only three films that stand between us and the box office champions of the yearβ"
"The animated film "Pocahonta". β
"Apollo 13. β
"And Batman Forever!"
Charlotte crossed her fingers and counted from small to large at the box office,
"The highest is less than $190 million - at present, this year's North American box office seems to have shrunk compared to last year!"
"That's normal, too. β
Andrew sighed,
"Last year, that is, 1994, was also a year of blockbuster masterpieces! Whether it is "Forrest Gump", "The Lion King" or "True Lies", they are all rare masterpieces. β
"yes!"
Charlotte nodded.
As a time-traveler, he knows better than Andrew Walker how many famous films were born in 1994.
What's more, after crossing over, he also personally participated in the two box office battles in the summer and Christmas files in 1994......
"This year's North American box office champion is probably not as good as last year's. β
"The same cannot be said. β
Andrew Walker laughed again,
"After all, there are still us this year!"
β......β
- Well, self-confidence is good.
Charlotte looked at each other, and the producer from Paramount was also a little embarrassed,
"It's true that there's MGM's 007: GoldenEye and Sony Columbia's Jumanji, both special effects blockbusters β but it shouldn't be much else, right?"
"What about Jim Carrey's "Detective Plane Head 2"?"
"Isn't it just coming out at the moment? The premiere box office may not be as good as our second week, so there's no need to worry. β
"What about the "Toy Story" produced by Pixar and distributed by Bowei Pictures?"
Charlotte asked again,
"It's said to be a 3D animated feature film!"
"3D Animation ......"
Andrew was silent for a moment,
"That thing is the trend of the future, but whether the technology and market are mature or not, let's wait and see! At least now, our "Guillotine Valley" is very hopeful to compete for the crown of the year. β
"That's right!"
......
Compared to the two male producers who are more concerned about the box office β Charlotte is also a director, producer and screenwriter β Jodie Foster, the real first producer of "Guillotine Valley," is starting to think about awards.
After all, now that the box office trend is good, and the follow-up publicity plan has been prepared, I am afraid that it will not make much use of this effort, so it is better to think of some ways in the awards.
- This is actually the division of labor between her, Charlotte and Andrew for a long time.
As a two-time Oscar-winning actress, Judy's influence in the Academy of Film Science and Arts is indeed much greater.
Therefore, she understands better that the current Oscar has an obvious effect on the income promotion of films.
If at the next Oscars, that is, in early 1996, the movie "Guillotine Valley" can win a few more awards, it will definitely be good news.
Although by then, it should already be March next year, "Guillotine Valley" must have been released.
- But the videotapes and discs were on sale just in time!
Compared with the majority of the box office revenue to distribution companies and theaters, the revenue brought by videotapes and discs can basically be all owned by the copyright owner.
- That's pure profit!!
As the owner of a successful production company, Jodie Foster doesn't want to give up this part of the profit at all.
After all, according to the agreement, the copyright of "Guillotine Valley" is in the hands of her "egg" company!
"How many awards should I apply for?"
Judy pondered,
"Best Art Direction, Best Cinematography, Best Costume Design, Best Visual Effects...... Well, it seems that the technical awards can all be applied for, and now it's the best actor and best director that are consideredβ"
There is a smile on the corner of the actress's mouth,
"Do you want to apply for them? As long as they apply, although it is more difficult to win the award, the nomination can still be operated!"
PS1: "We Are the Champions" is a song that fans know, of course, lovers of football literature, 2: "Ghost Horse Elf" is actually quite good-looking, and the heroine in it is precisely the original heroine of "Guillotine Valley" Christina 3: The Oscar award needs to be actively applied, and you will not be nominated if you don't apply.
