The Oscars are also divided into small years, the original time and space, and this year's nominated films "The Queen", "Little Sunshine Beauty", "Letter from Iwo Jima", "Tower of Babel", "Infernal Affairs"...

"The Queen" has a typical Oscar taste, but the quality of the film is weak, "Little Sunshine Beauty" is not good enough to that extent, "Letter from Iwo Jima", a standard Inswood movie, the problem is that Inswood only won the Oscar two years ago, "Babel" is not a typical Oscar taste, and the director is still a new generation of foreigners;

"The Departed" is a new national treasure in China, which is not as sharp as the previous movies, and the market response is very good, so if you don't give an award, you will be embarrassed!

So, directly to Martin Scorsese ...

"Carol" is also an atypical Oscar taste, and "Brokeback Mountain" only won the Oscar for Best Director last year, and the probability of "Carol" winning the award is very low...

After analyzing it, Harvey explained: "But the nomination is still guaranteed..."

"As long as you can get a nomination,"

Shen Xudong nodded and asked about "Seeing the Devil": "If you come to Leonardo to star, the cost may have to increase, right?" ”

“… That's for sure, but as long as he's willing to act, he'll definitely make money! ”

Coming to Oonardo is a miracle of Hollywood.

Let's put it this way, as long as Hollywood is still the world film center, even after a hundred years, young people will still remember him, just like we remember the big stars of the golden age now.

He belongs to the signboard of Hollywood, and to put it mildly, all the value and meaning of Hollywood's existence in the world shine in him.

Anyway, as long as the label sees his name, there is no nonsense in the green light.

Therefore, projects such as "The Great Gatsby" and "The Revenant" can't be played by others, and as soon as he joined, he immediately made it!

Only with him, you can make money, even if you can't make money at the box office, the video tape copyright can also be earned!

Harvey continued, "If you want to work with him, I think it's best to leave the script to me..."

“… Besides, I'll go back and talk to Joseph Drake..."

Harvey's face changed: "The script has already been registered?" ”

"Hmm... Joseph Drake helped to register. ”

"You're not working with us?"

"This is not a type of thing at all," after a pause, Shen Xudong continued: "If you follow the model of "Torture Room", I think you can make a "Pinhole Hotel"..."

"Hostels?"

"Yes, a divorced couple had to stay in a car hotel in the middle of nowhere after their car broke down... After entering the hostel, my husband looked through the videotapes left in the TV cabinet and found that the content was full of extremely realistic bloody movies, but what was even more shocking was that the scenes in the movies were clearly the rooms they were staying in..."

"Reality TV?"

"Yes... The highlight is how to save yourself..."

When Harvey heard this, his eyes lit up: "This can be made into a series!" ”

"This can be added to "The Torture Chamber"..."

"Torture Chamber" is actually the combined name of two movies, "Terror Planet" and "Death Proof"...

The main thing is to pay tribute - the object of tribute is the torture room movie, and the so-called torture room movie grindhouse film, in the sixties and seventies of the last century, some small theaters in the United States in order to make a profit... A large number of exciting movies are played, so a large number of small-budget movies with sexual, violent and bloody scenes are officially on the stage, and there is often a kind of close dance called "bump and grind" in such movies, so this kind of movie is called "torture room movie", and the theater that plays such films is called "torture room theater"...

Quentin grew up watching these kinds of movies, so his interests are biased towards these.

Shen Xudong nodded: "It's okay, then change the setting to a divorce trip and go to Eastern Europe..."

Harvey wondered: "Eastern Europe? ”

Quentin explains: "Our films are all shot in Eastern Europe... I think it's good, we'll start filming in March next year..."

"What do you think, Robert?"

Robert Rodriguez immediately realized something and asked rhetorically: "... Are you asking me to direct? ”

"Yes... May I? ”

"No problem, did you write the script?"

"I write..."

……

can only say that it was a coincidence, Shen Xudong himself is preparing to do "The Fault in the Stars", didn't he meet Quentin, and said that he would make a bad movie together...

"The Fault in the Stars" will be pushed back.

Joseph Drake doesn't care, he's busy with "The American Version of The Grudge 2".

However, he has a lot of complaints about Shen Xudong's cooperation with Harvey, because Harvey is notoriously greedy!

The great director Michael Moore, the best documentary director in Hollywood, made a film for Harvey, but was owed wages for two years and finally went to court.

"It doesn't matter..."

Shen Xudong shrugged: "After this award season, I will never have anything to do with him again!" ”

Joseph Drake: "Who are you going to work with on Seeing the Devil?" ”

"How's Scott Rudin?"

“… I can get you in touch, but he shouldn't have much interest in the subject... He's at Disney! ”

"Well..."

Disney is synonymous with family carnival, "Seeing the Devil" sells plasma, violence, and the style doesn't match!

"You're preparing... By the way, the director of "The Fault in the Stars" can also be found..."

“ok！”

After explaining this, Shen Xudong got in the car and went to the airport...

He's going home.

……

That "Pinhole Hotel" is actually not a good idea, compared to "Human Skin Inn" and "Horror Wax Museum", it is a little less perverted...

This kind of movie is meaningless, and it is a hanging sample of "Human Removal Project", which belongs to selling creativity and satisfying the attributes of curiosity.

Shen Xudong received $6 million in script fees and production fees, and the copyright belongs to Weinstein Pictures...

It's definitely a loss, but to be honest, for this theme, $3 million is enough for the filming cost, pay Robert Rodriguez $500,000 for the director's fee, and pay Joseph Drake $500,000 for the production, and the rest belongs to the net profit...

Why didn't Shen Xudong shoot it himself?

The reason is very simple, on the one hand, he doesn't have time, and on the other hand, he doesn't have much interest in the subject itself, but he has some impressions after browsing the "small and big model movies".

He once wanted to make a name for himself through horror genre films, so he studied quite a few movies of this genre, because from a global perspective, horror movies are most likely to be small and big.

In this genre, he has at least dozens of similar types of ideas, such as "Garage Cry", "Horror Basement" and so on.

Basically, the plot is pretty much the same, it's all a few fools who go to a place and then die mysteriously one after another.

This type of movie, like "The Cabin in the Woods", has no novelty anymore.

Pull it back, Shen Xudong must hurry back to China, and the Golden Eagle Festival is about to begin.
