Chapter 535: Once crazy, now my face hurts

"Hollywood starts with animation (

DreamWorks Group.

As one of the Big Three of DreamWorks, Spielberg talked to Michael Bay in the office today. No, to be precise, he was comforting his old friend.

"Michael, don't pay too much attention to the box office trend of "Pearl Harbor". In fact, the dozens of minutes of explosion scenes in the film still won the approval of many fans and fans?" Spielberg exhorted.

Michael Bay smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I know, but I still feel unconvinced in my heart."

"You mean..." Spielberg frowned.

"Yes!"

Michael Bay said in a deep voice: "I mean the unscrupulous and unlimited media reporters and the film critics who fan the flames everywhere. Before the release of "Pearl Harbor", they all said: Hey, look at him Michael. Bei, besides explosions, explosions, explosions, can he order anything else? I can't play art movies at all!"

"Now, "Pearl Harbor" has been released for almost two weeks."

"They said again: Hey, look at him Michael Bay, he really can only play with explosions, explosions, and explosions. As for the literary and artistic connotation of the tall, he is totally unable to do so."

The voice fell.

Spielberg said coldly: "How many years have you been a director, don't you know the urination of the media and film critics? Whether it is a commercial film or an art film, as long as they want, they have 10,000 kinds of nitpicking. the way."

Michael Bay: "..."

Is he really not sure about the urination of the media and film critics?

He is very clear.

However... Michael Bay’s directorial career has gone so well!

"Jedi Men", "Brave to Death Island", "Peerless Tribulation"...

Since officially stepping into Hollywood, Michael Bay is completely like a wall hanging in the cloak of God, making a movie and a movie, and the box office is getting higher every time.

The name of the pride of the sky, spread like wildfire!

The word "failure" does not exist in his dictionary at all.

However, this time he played it badly!

Spielberg also analyzed: "In fact, the "Pearl Harbor" movie is not bad, but Wald Pictures' new film "District Nine" was released at the same time as your movie! $30 million low Cost-built sci-fi movies broke the box office record of a series of medium-cost movies and completely suppressed your scenery."

Michael Bay suddenly felt bitter.

It's okay not to mention the film "The Ninth District". When it comes to it, even if it is him, Michael Bay can't help but blush.

Everyone in Hollywood doesn't know who doesn't laugh. On the eve of "Pearl Harbor", he criticized "District Nine" more than once.

"The Ninth District is a joke."

"The ninth district with a production cost of 30 million dollars is still a science fiction movie. Can it be watched?"

"Undoubtedly, it is a properly bad movie."

"The opponent of "Pearl Harbor" has never been "District Nine" released at the same time, but "Titanic" by James Cameron."

A line of rhetoric is still in my ears.

How arrogant once was, how painful my old face is now...

This is the case with director Michael Bay, and the starring actors in the film "Pearl Harbor" also have a sore face.

for example:

Actress of the heroine-Kate Beckinsale.

She was very uncomfortable at the moment.

Agent: "Kate, you know, although I am one of CAA’s senior partners, I can’t control the will of the entire CAA. Since "Pearl Harbor" failed both in word-of-mouth and box office, your internal rating within the company, Has been reduced from A+ to B."

"At the same time, the major Hollywood film companies have also lowered your rating considerations. As for the loss of endorsements for various products, it has become a foregone conclusion."

Hearing that, Kate Beckinsale looked ugly at the moment.

Hollywood is a vanity fair, and capital will always chase winners!

The agent also said: "From now on, it will be difficult for you to obtain the resources of Class A commercial blockbusters."

"Is there really no room for redemption?"

Kate Beckinsale was very unwilling. She worked so hard for so many years and devoted so much before she won the leading role of the A-class commercial blockbuster "Pearl Harbor". For this reason, less than two months after giving birth to her daughter, she immediately went to work.

However, now the movie has failed.

The producers who used to chase him so enthusiastically are now indifferent.

"It's hard."

The agent shook his head and said: "Passed means passed. There are really not many people who can turn over. Do you know Milla Jovovich?"

Kate Beckinsale nodded, expressing her knowledge.

(Note: Milla Jovovich is the actor of Alice, the heroine of the "Resident Evil" movie series.)

"In the mid-90s, Mira was already a very famous actress. For this reason, she won the favor of Luc Besson's "The Fifth Element". But, as you know, it hasn't turned around yet." The person said solemnly.

The production cost of the film "The Fifth Element" was 90 million US dollars, and the publicity expenses exceeded 50 million US dollars. At the time, it was the film with the highest investment in Gaomeng Pictures.

But what about after the movie is released?

There were a lot of negative reviews, and the box office was even more disastrous.

For this reason, Gaomeng Pictures almost went bankrupt.

The dignified international director, Luc Besson, who filmed "This Killer Is Not So Cold", had to leave Hollywood and return to Europe;

The heroine of the film, Milla Jovovich, completely loses her position. It is difficult to get access to movies with an investment cost of more than 20 million U.S. dollars, and she has become an actress who hates dogs.

Hollywood is so realistic!

Even in the future, Milla will play the heroine Alice in the "Resident Evil" movie series, and UU Reading www.uukanshu.com will become popular again, and she will not be exposed to Category A first-line commercial productions again.

Kate Beckinsale said with a bitter expression, "I see."

The agent comforted: "Think about it for yourself, and I'll look at it for you."

In fact, in the future, Kate Beckinsale’s fate is very similar to Milla Jovovich. Kate Beckinsale later starred in the "Legend of Night" series of movies, once again became popular, and did not have any chance to come into contact with the first-line commercial production of Class A.

Since then, she has completely lost the opportunity to become a first-line actor in Hollywood and can only be reduced to a second-line.

There is one sentence, the broker did not say.

"Kate Beckinsale, on the eve of the "Pearl Harbor" movie, has repeatedly spoken badly to the "Nineth District" movie and Zhuke. Does she still have a chance to become popular?"

......

Somewhere in Los Angeles.

"Kate Beckinsale, she's done!"

Matt Damon said to his good friend Ben Affleck: "I'm pretty sure that Mr. Zucker Wald will avenge Kate Beckinsale."

Ben Affleck breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you for reminding me, otherwise, I guess I will be settled by the Autumn Queen now."

During the promotion of "Pearl Harbor", Kate Beckinsale made many utterances, but Affleck, as the actor, remembered the advice of his friends, and was always able to maintain rationality and restraint, and never published any attacks on Zhuke himself. Remarks.

Matt Damon sneered: "In Hollywood, we can be arrogant, but we have to score people. We must not offend people of the status of Mr. Zucker Wald, not a single bit."

Ben Affleck nodded, his emotional intelligence is not low.
