Chapter 876: 881

During the period when the Simon family went to Australia to visit their relatives and return, numerous media and public attention in North America still focused on the box office of Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice.

From January 5 to January 11, the first full box office week of 1996, as the Festival passed, the North American film market began to cool significantly. The third week's "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice" has finally ushered in its first significant box office shrinkage since the opening of the film.

However, the actual decline was only 43%.

Far less than some media forecasts of at least a cut in the decline trend.

The box office volume of Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of justice in the second week still exceeded 128 million US dollars of more than 99% of Hollywood films. This time, the box office volume of Batman vs. Superman in the third week still reached 73.46 million US dollars. In three weeks, the cumulative box office of the DC movie universe Super Big Mac reached 379.51 million US dollars.

If the two-week cumulative box office of the Christmas show still makes it doubtful whether the North American box office that surpasses batwar will hit the threshold of $600 million, when the box office data of the third week is released, people's focus is how far the film can go after breaking through $600 million.

In the third week after the film was released, the box office volume still exceeded 70 million US dollars. Unless there is a special event like the outbreak of the Third World War, no one will doubt whether the super Batman war can recover 220 million US dollars.

It is not impossible to recover 300 million or more.

In this case, "Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of justice" may even continue to be the first film in North American film history to break through the $700 million box office.

It's not impossible.

In terms of inflation, many films in American history have reached the domestic box office level of $700 million by 1996 standards.

Because of the success of "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice", from the end of 1995 to the beginning of 1996, all other films in the North American film market were eclipsed. This year's 53rd American film and television Golden Globe Awards will be held on January 21. Even companies, including Danielle Reese entertainment, are working hard for their own nominations and subsequent Oscars However, the media and public attention of related topics is still far lower than that of last year.

The attention is not here at all.

It is a pity that "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice" did not declare its nomination.

As for the reason.

It's not that I'm afraid I won't be nominated, or that the producers are not interested in the Golden Globe nomination, mainly for the sake of confidentiality.

Absolutely confidential.

The nomination rules of the Golden Globe awards are different from those of the Oscars. The Nominated Golden Globe awards are usually announced before Christmas in December. It is not necessary to declare the film. It must be shown before the nomination is announced. It only needs to be shown in a designated cinema in Los Angeles for the members of the Golden Globe Association of foreign journalists to be eligible for declaration.

The nomination for the 53rd Golden Globe Award was announced on December 11 last year. The release date of "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice" is December 22. If it is shown to members of the Foreign Press Association in advance, at least the nomination for best picture of musical comedy will be confirmed.

However, both danielis and Warner Brothers have racked their brains to keep the plot of the film secret. Before the film was released, the media from all sides did whatever they could to dig out all kinds of insider stories related to the plot. If you look at the Hollywood Foreign Journalists Association, you can't be flattered by the integrity of these people. If the plot of "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice" is leaked in advance because of the internal screening for a nomination, it's not worth the loss.

Just give up completely.

As a result, the popularity of the super baton war is still flourishing in January, but the Golden Globe award can not be touched.

Now we are more interested in this award season, is whether the super Batman war can be nominated for best picture Oscar. After all, gone with the wind, great white shark, Exorcist, star wars and other films that made phenomenal achievements at the box office at that time all won at least one Oscar nomination for best picture, which is also phenomenal bat Chivalry vs. Superman: Dawn of justice, there's no reason not to get it.

With the awarding season coming, 1995, which is regarded as an Oscar year in Simon's eyes due to the lack of some phenomenal movies, is very competitive, whether it is the Golden Globe Award to be held soon or the Oscar in March.

Take Denise for example.

Because of his personal relationship, Simon's new Catherine film "Detroit", which is most valued by Simon, won nothing in the Golden Globe nomination this time. It is estimated that the same is true for the Oscars. The first week's screening, the media evaluation is regular. In other words, the next week's large-scale production of 1531 screens, and the box office is only 6.97 million US dollars, even if the local box office can exceed 10 million US dollars.

According to the survey of the publicity and development team, the main reason is that both the media and individuals are not interested in or willing to mention this "remote" subject. In this era of increasingly serious political correctness, what attitude should we take towards a black riot that took place in the 1960s?praise?

Is it an awakening, a cry and a revolt of the black people at the bottom?

Jokes.

Criticism?

Who dares to criticize?

Are you racist, are you racist, are you racist?

A little inattention may cause protests from black civil rights organizations, and even make some media people lose their jobs.

So it's cold.

Simon actually has a way to add fuel to the situation. At least, if he wants to, it's OK to win a nomination for Catherine.

Simon did not, however.

It's also a kind of protection.

After all, it's politically correct.

As for the loss of the $30 million project, it's nothing to Denise entertainment.

Katherine's "Detroit" directly withdrew from the competition of the award season. On danielis Entertainment's side, the upcoming Golden Globe Award still won two best picture nominations, namely, the best picture nomination for plot, Ang Lee's new film "sense and emotion", the best picture nomination for musical comedy, and the best picture nomination for 3D animated film "beauty and beast".

This is also the result of repeated internal weighing of danielis entertainment.

You know, even if Simon's "Detroit" pulled out of the competition, last year's danielis entertainment films, which were expected to win two best picture nominations of the Golden Globe Award, included "McMullen brothers", "this man from Earth", "Jurassic Park 2", "Apollo 13", "walking on death row" and so on.

Among them, "Apollo 13" was once the best picture nominees of the plot category.

This time I chose to give up.

Because "reason and emotion" happened to be the best film winner of the plot category in that year, defeated "Apollo 13", "brave heart" and other films.

Other film companies, according to this year's average nomination level, such as Forrest Whitaker's "when you wake up", have achieved good box office reputation, but they have not received any nominations this time. And Martin Scorsese's "Las Vegas" only got a best director nomination this time.

It's just a golden globe.

In the next Oscars, there are only five best picture nominations. According to the average level of this year's awards season, only Denise entertainment has the nomination qualification of "this man from Earth", "Apollo 13", "beauty and beast", "reason and emotion" and "walking on death row".

It's not even the super baton war, which Warner Bros. is responsible for.

Unfortunately, even if danielis entertainment does not pursue the best picture award, the Oscars organizing committee can only give two nominations at most for the sake of balance. Moreover, this time, if the super Batman war can win the nomination, it will obviously be counted as half of daenerys entertainment. Rounding off, it is equivalent to occupying a quota.

There is only one place left.

Five movies.

To whom?

This choice is not easy to make.

In order to maximize profits, it is obvious that "beauty and the beast" is the most appropriate. This film is still on. If it can get the nomination, it can promote the box office rebound.

That's what Simon thought at first.

However, it is not as good as heaven.

The release of super baton directly destroyed the long-term strategy of beauty and the beast. Because "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice" is too strong, the living space of "beauty and the beast" is squeezed to the lowest, and once the box office curve is pressed down, it is basically impossible to rebound. Therefore, the current "beauty and the beast" may not even survive in February, let alone the Oscar bonus in March.

That being the case, it won't do much to win the Oscar nomination for beauty and the beast. Unless Simon forces beauty and the beast to win an Oscar for best picture.

Obviously, it can't be done. The feasibility is very low.

Then only one other strategy can be activated.

Simon himself's "this man from the earth" offered to give way. This film, released at the beginning of last year, has been released at home and abroad, including video and hairstyle. If there is no award but nomination, the effect is not great.

Apollo 13, once nominated for the best picture Oscar, also gave up.

This is a commercial film.

In the original time and space, the reason why this film was nominated was not only politically correct, but also that it was the one who was short.

Not this year.

In the end, only reason and emotion and death row walk are left.

Simon himself wrote sense and sensibility.

After the release of the film adapted from Jane Austen's novel in October last year, relying on its excellent reputation, the film has won more than 43 million US dollars at the box office with a production cost of 16.5 million US dollars.

In history, "sense and sensibility" not only won the Golden Globe Award for best picture in plot category, but also won the Oscar nomination for best picture, and finally lost to "brave heart". In fact, we all know that the film itself is not weak.on the other hand.

Simon's choice of "sense and sensibility" this time is mainly to ease the tension and win over the circle of Hollywood literature and art films.

In the past few years, Denise entertainment has been in a situation of frequent occurrence, because there are so many excellent films under it that the films that are qualified to shine in the award season can only be brushed off. After all, Denise entertainment can not have all the nominations. As a result, some filmmakers who are interested in winning awards simply choose to cooperate with other film companies.

Simon, of course, is not without a response.

In the past few years, in addition to the local Oscars in the United States, the gaomen film team has been working hard to run Cannes, Venice, Berlin and other film festivals, striving to let the filmmakers who cooperate with danelis entertainment can produce results outside the wall even if they can't blossom inside the wall.

This time it will be more of a statement.

Choosing "sense and sensibility" is to tell some filmmakers that Denise entertainment will not be too partial to commercial films.

Park City, Utah.

Soon it was January 20th.

The day before the Golden Globe Awards ceremony.

This year's Sundance Film Festival opened on January 18 and ended on January 28.

Although Denise entertainment has become more and more powerful in Hollywood in recent years, Simon does not relax on many things, but pays more attention to them, such as the vestro villa Party of Sundance Film Festival, which has gradually formed a habit. Denise entertainment has dug up a lot of excellent filmmakers over the years. However, Simon, who has regarded Hollywood as his territory, never has too many talents.

This year's villa San dans westero party will be held on Saturday, January 20.

Simon was present in person.

In a word, this party is more just a symbol. Danielis Entertainment's work to attract the rising new people in Sundance is basically outside the party. However, it happens that this party, because of Simon westero's fame, because of Denise Entertainment's market position in Hollywood, and even more than Sundance itself, has a huge attraction for talents who are interested in the film industry.

Therefore, even if the purpose of the festival is to meet the new film talents in the United States, when the news that Simon is paying more and more attention to Sundance comes out, filmmakers all over the world begin to pay more and more attention to the film festival held in the interior of the United States.

After the original "Lola Run", Sundance was in the doldrums for several years because of lack of information.

Now, with the close attention from all over the world, a large number of filmmakers and countless tourists have poured in. In addition, Steven Soderberg, Quentin Tarantino and other filmmakers have come out of Sundance and become successful. The popularity of Sundance Film Festival has also begun to grow.

Even Simon himself, who first saw a series of samples of this year's shortlisted films sent by the team of Sundance, and some names that he was very familiar with but were not limited to North America, could not help but feel some emotion.
