Chapter 858: A Good Movie Is Like an Internet Cool Article
Back in Los Angeles, Martin immediately went to the Firefighter Fund Insurance Company and deposited a copy of all the footage in the vault according to the insurance agreement between the two parties.
It's also to prevent the unexpected.
In the film era, it was not uncommon for fire to burn film.
Hollywood's third-party guarantee company has established corresponding insurance measures for this purpose.
Of course, in the digital age, the risks are less.
The rest of the crew was temporarily on vacation, but Martin couldn't rest yet, so he took the director team to simply sort out the filmed shots.
According to Martin's plan, the finished film of "Shark Beach" will not exceed 90 minutes, but the footage shot will be more than 2,000 minutes.
Compared to those huge works, this can only be said to be trivial.
In the office of the Shark Beach studio, Louise is working on a handover with Martin.
Martin said: "I'm going to take a few days off, and I'm going to participate in the promotional announcement of "Fast and Furious 3", and the first cut of post-production can only be handed over to you. ”
Louise, who was wearing a black suit, pushed her glasses up and said, "You, the director, plan to be the boss of the hands-off?" ”
"Isn't that in line with the rules of the circle?" Martin is serious nonsense: "I'm a rookie director, and it's normal to have no post-editing rights." ”
Louise, of course, doesn't believe these nonsense: "You're still the number one investor and the big boss." ”
Martin put away the joke and said: "The editing team has followed the crew since the preparation period, what kind of film I want, Joel Negot knows very well, when the fine editing is later, the promotion of "Fast Pursuit 3" and "Interstellar" will definitely be over, and it is not too late for me to join post-production." ”
The final cut version is definitely his final say.
Louise nodded slightly: "Joel Negot has worked with us for many years, we know each other well enough, and our ability is not a problem, so it is very suitable for him to preside over the first cut." ”
Martin said again: "The crew still needs you to keep an eye on it in post-production. ”
"It's too much work." Louise raised an eyebrow, "You're going to pay me extra." ”
Martin stood up, spread his hands and said, "Whatever you want, just say it." ”
Louise looked at the time: "Let's go to the airport, Kelly is almost there." ”
Martin knows very well that he will have to pay billions again tonight, and it may be tens of billions if he doesn't get it right.
The two went to the airport together, and after a little wait on the private tarmac, the Gulfstream business jet that Kelly was riding quickly stopped.
The cabin door opened, and Kelly Gray, dressed in red, came down the gangway and saw Martin immediately open his arms,
Martin hugged her hard.
Seeing that Kelly wanted to kiss Martin, Louise dragged the person over and dragged him to the car: "Don't make waves yet, there is time to go back, and you, the state councilor, should pay attention to a little impact." ”
The three of them got on Louise's extended Rolls-Royce Phantom together.
As the car started, Kelly suppressed the urge to sit on Martin: "Let's get down to business first, get down to business in the car, and when we get to the place, we can drive directly." ”
Martin stretched out his arms, hugged one on the left and right, and asked, "What about the Ukrainian side?" ”
"According to the analysis of a number of think tank systems, the probability of Aleksandrovich being elected as the commander of Ukraine is more than 80 percent, and the situation in Eastern Europe will usher in unprecedented changes," Kelly said. ”
Louise continued: "It's not the changes that matter, it's what we can get out of them. ”
"Money, of course," Martin said. ”
"For me, there's political capital." Kelly asked directly: "How long can your influence on Aleksandrovich last?" ”
Martin groaned for a moment and said: "At the moment Aleksandrovich wants to give me a monetary gain in return for helping him, and the day I receive the reward, the so-called impact...... You know better than me that when you become a commander, you have power and people will change. ”
Louise said: "The follow-up impact depends on Alexandrovic's choice and needs, and if he needs the United States, we, the political brokers, will naturally have influence." ”
Martin looked at Kelly, "What do you think about the donkey party?" ”
Kelly smiled and said in Martin's tone, "Ermao is a dagger that the United States put in front of Da Mao's eyes. ”
Martin proceeded from reality: "Once Aleksandrovich is elected, he will prepare a gift for me, but there are many complicated factors involved, and it is difficult for me to swallow it alone, so in order to receive it smoothly, I can only find you together." ”
Kelly leaned over and kissed Martin passionately.
Louise couldn't stand it and simply joined in.
The lips of the six classes are entangled and fighting with each other.
Kelly and Louise were Martin's earliest partners, and what Aleksandrovich wanted to give away was quite large, and it was really very troublesome to take over, far from being able to do it on Martin's side.
Martin chose to pull the two into the water.
Louise said: "If he can be elected, he will really give a super gift, and I can send professionals to assist you." ”
Kelly said: "The political level is given to me, and the part that needs to be paid is also handed over to me. ”
After all, Martin's rise to prominence was relatively short, and he said: "With you here, I am relieved." ”
The car enters Louise's home in Sherman Oakes, and Martin is almost dragged into the villa by Louise and Kelly.
Monetary gains are a matter of the future, but today you can ask for at least billions in compensation.
After a short vacation, Martin was almost dragged by Louise and Kelly, and then tempted to stay at Sherman Oakes.
A few days later, Nolan called for the movie, and Martin went to Warner Studios for a commercial for Interstellar.
Warner Bros. is preparing to use Martin as the lead actor as a narrator in the TV and online video trailers released in the summer.
"Interstellar" will be released in July, and the poster and trailer are currently being released in an orderly manner.
Nolanga Martin's appeal, coupled with Warner Bros.'s publicity ability, makes this film highly anticipated.
After finishing the dubbing, Martin came out of the post-production studio and ran into Daniel, who had just come out of the studio of "Batman v Superman".
The two entered the cold drink shop together.
Martin casually asked, "Is it going well over there?" ”
"It's not just going well, it's going too fast." Daniel's eyelids couldn't stop jumping when he thought of the crew: "Warner Bros. and DC Comics each sent a producer to assist Zack Schneider in preparing the film, and if nothing else, the film will start shooting in July." ”
Martin asked, "Two producers?" ”
Daniel nodded: "On behalf of Hamada and Kevin Tsujihara respectively, supervise the crew and Zack Schneider to ensure work efficiency." ”
Martin sighed, and he knew that Warner Heaven couldn't do nothing.
Daniel changed the subject: "How is the Joker script going?" ”
"Still in the works." Martin simply said: "This project will not be until next year at the earliest. ”
In the second half of the year, the post-production of "Shark Beach" needs to be completed, and "Split" needs to do a lot of preliminary preparations.
Leonardo had already put Martin in touch with the New York-Presbyterian Psychiatric Center, and Martin could go over and experience life whenever he was free.
Although there are no perverts with more than a dozen personalities over there, there are quite a few schizophrenic patients with dual personalities.
The two didn't talk for long, and Martin had an announcement to attend in the evening.
Disney Studios contacted YouTube to conduct an online interview with Martin about the "Fast and Furious 3" project and answer some questions from fans through the Internet.
The crew also released the latest trailer on YouTube.
At the same time, social media such as Twitter and INS have also posted related promotional articles.
"Martin Davis fights his way out of the encirclement and completes the ultimate lore, gunfights, throwing knives, horse battles, motorcycles, etc., all the action scenes are dizzying!"
In addition to the normal publicity, the focus of the publicity on the Davis studio's side is still on the dog.
"Martin Davis, the dog maniac, is back!"
"So many people died because they killed a dog in the first part."
"The last thing Hollywood can mess with is Martin's dog."
The topic between the "Fast Pursuit" series and dogs has long since evolved into an Internet meme, and it is even a bit old-fashioned.
But don't be afraid of being old-fashioned, as long as it's easy to use.
The meme between Martin and the dog once again spread all over the Internet, arousing the interest of countless viewers in the film.
Before the first weekend of the summer season, Disney Studios held three consecutive preview sessions for "Fast and Furious 3" in Burbank.
Many blockbusters with top production scale will not hold multiple test screenings to the public.
Because the more people who see the movie, the more difficult it is to control word-of-mouth.
Why do most literary films take the form of on-demand screening? One of the reasons is to control the size of the audience and avoid passers-by and spectators from entering the venue as much as possible to get a low score.
Through the operation of the media and critics, word-of-mouth marketing will affect the judgment of many people.
The reputation of the film's exposure is very high, and the subsequent audience admission will naturally be affected.
"Fast Pursuit 3" doesn't care about this, on the one hand, the quality of the film is excellent, and everyone from the producer to the distributor to the theater company is extremely confident in the commercial prospects of the film.
On the other hand, as a sequel to a blockbuster movie, the film has a wide enough audience and enough support.
In a week, after three consecutive shows, fan comments can be seen everywhere on the Internet, and the evaluations are basically positive.
"In terms of action scenes, this one is the best in the series, the perfect combination of gunplay and hand-to-hand combat."
"It's another gorgeous and creative action extravaganza, and this one is totally entertaining, like a vivid video game."
"If the first movie was the death of the dogs, then this one is 'The Revenge of the Dogs,' and the dogs will tear the enemy apart."
Fans unanimously praised the film's action scenes, believing that the crazy fight scenes can meet the imagination and expectations of all fans.
Because of the large number of test screenings, the number of scoring users on IMDB met the requirements, and the filmmaker also lifted the ban on word-of-mouth as soon as possible, and the IMDB score of "Fast Pursuit 3" was as high as 9.2 points.
Although the test screening score will be much higher, it is also representative, at least it can clearly tell everyone that this film meets the public's appetite.
In addition to the crew's normal promotional announcements, Martin also posted through social media.
"Thank you all for enjoying my movie!"
Along with the tweet, there were more than a dozen photos of him during the filming of the film.
At the same time, the media reputation of "Fast Pursuit 3" has also been officially lifted.
The Los Angeles Times called it an incredible R-rated action movie, and Martin Davis once again performed many classic action scenes in a jaw-dropping way, which is full of entertainment!
The Hollywood Reporter focuses on the other side, arguing that the film expands the "hunt" universe in a pleasant way, with well-designed action scenes.
Entertainment Weekly's review was simple and straightforward: Martin's action scenes were as clean as ever, bringing out a high-caliber action movie with gorgeous action choreography and constant violence.
As soon as the word-of-mouth ban was lifted, the Rotten Tomatoes website included 39 column film reviews, of which 38 were fresh and 1 was rotten, with a freshness of 97%.
And on the Metacritic website, the overall score of the film is as high as 84 points.
This is an R-rated action movie, and the word of mouth is bursting!
In addition, Disney Studios collected a higher internal score from theater managers, and theater operators in the first-tier market scored an average of 95 points.
In other words, theater managers are super optimistic about the market prospects of "Fast Pursuit 3".
The distributor, Disney Studios, also grabbed one of the best summer schedules for the film: the Memorial Day holiday.
Although this is an R-rated film, under these favorable conditions, the film will open in North America with more than 4,000 theaters.
In mid-May, the North American pre-sale of "Fast and Furious 3" officially opened.
In just one week, major theaters in North America sold nearly $33 million in advance box office.
Disney Studios and major market institutions in North America also gave a first-week estimate of the film, and even the most conservative estimate is that the North American box office can exceed $100 million in the first weekend.
Hollywood has not had an R-rated film for many years, and the North American box office exceeded 100 million in the first weekend.
The first two installments of the "Fast Pursuit" series have accumulated a strong fan base, and Martin's market appeal is stronger than in previous years.
The popularity of this series actually proves that non-superhero comic movies, as long as they are filmed, have broad market prospects.
According to Martin's personal understanding, this series is like an Internet cool article that I read in my previous life, from beginning to end.
As far as the cool aspect is concerned, in fact, the needs of most movie fans around the world are the same.
It's not that there is no market for decadent mourning films, it's just that the market size is much smaller.
With the passage of time, the North American pre-sale box office of "The Rush 3" continued to rise, and when the North American pre-sale exceeded $40 million, Davis Studios and Disney Pictures jointly announced that they would further expand the "Pursuit" movie universe in the future.
After the trilogy, Winston will be the leading actor in a movie called "Continental Hotel New York".
This news also piqued the interest of fans.
On the afternoon of May 23, the Emirates Rock Theater in Hollywood was crowded, black suits were connected, and the world premiere of "Fast and Furious 3" kicked off.
